not Office, and currently a web app.

Could look into building a OneDrive integration if it is super critical...

I am building one that is free, is connected to a search where you can auto-export into the library - would you want to give it a shot?

Any feedback you give me I can work on... Here is what it looks like so far:

It would be good if one day I can do something to solve this. Journals are super segregated and fractured to be easily accessible.

Question: Would you be comfortable publishing in a standardised journal if it is new, has low impact factor, or is not as prestigious??

AI is good for science.

Bad & lazy researchers who do not bother to read what they claim they did are not.

Please do not put the blame on a technology that is and could be super helpful for many things in research & academia if used correctly and ethically. Responsibility is on the researchers.

I am building a reference manager if you would be interested! I have just recently started adding a terminal (the panel below) for detecting problems - would you want to test it with me?

it is free, you can check it out at simplifine.com

In Boston/Cambridge and Yale this week. I am getting free coffee for any PhD, PostDoc, and Prof who has 15 mins to chat about their research:)) Reach out here if you have time & would love to meet at your favourite coffee!

Thanks for the reply Tim! This is helpful - www.simplifine.com is free, feel free to try it!

As per labour, can I ask what is the division between time spent for:
wet lab/intervention/physical workload
VS
academic/lit search/review/manuscript drafting?

How is your budgeting usually distributed among procurement, labour, intervention design, software, and publication costs in your current position? Which ones are the biggest pains in the ass?

When I was 5, I loved science, which I took to be planets and magnets and chemicals and shit.

Soon I realized science was a collective human activity, and these were just the objects of its attention.

Anyway, whenever I read an OpEd on how science isn't political, I think "Are you 5 years old?"

The hysterical and hypocritical response to the ICC warrants today shows Washington DC is "this weird fantasy land where Israel can simply do no wrong," @mattduss.bsky.social tells Zeteo's @premthakker.bsky.social.

Quoting Baldwin is cool but actually reading him cooler.

Not from Baldwin. From Robert Jones Jr.

Let’s not create misinformation…

Sharing Baldwin is cool but reading is cooler. Quote is not from James Baldwin. It is from Robert Jones, JR. and here is the proof: www.sonofbaldwin.com/wp-content/u...

This cardigan is called Teams. Every square is a meeting that could have been an email. It’s actually Teams Mk II as its predecessor had a bad experience with the washing machine.

Quoting Faulkner and being so close minded is funny. Obviously librarians know a great deal so I was trying to learn from you to make it something that people like you would not have a problem using. You act like you are on Twitter.

To be able to apply methodologies explored in new research directly into your own research paper to test and benchmark. Super relevant for fields like biomed engineering, predictive modeling, or ML.

I see - no worries! I would like to understand your take on open-source better, though… if that is the reason. Is there something specific you think we should pay attention to or is it just being closed sourced that is a no-go for you? Especially given how open source doesn’t mean more accessible

Simplifine has a free version. It is not open source. But, to clarify, search is only a part of what we have - you can create project spaces, save and analyze papers you found or uploaded, write notes, and simulate code. Institutions and Enterprises that do research can also connect their databases.

To me building this technology is the best bet towards open research - access everything & have countless LLMs read through the papers one by one rather than relying on close box metrics & citation rankings
