The Blue Jays were the true winners this season. Their heart and team spirit are unmatched in baseball and any other sport. Minor league players became stars. Stars became superstars. Thank you for the memories, the fun and the great season of incredible baseball! #BlueJays

🇨🇦💙 Blue Jays didn’t lose last night — Canada won.
Because what the world saw wasn’t just a game. It was unity, fairness, and heart. We hosted them, we played clean, and we cheered loud.

Congratulations to the Toronto Blue Jays on a magnificent season. It is a shame either team had to lose. And this was a gut punch. 💔💔

Classy players, fanbase, and truly one of the finest cities in the world.

Future is bright with Yeasavage, Barger, and Vladdy.

Now go re-sign Bo.

Absolutely gobsmacked to witness massive raptor migration near Panama City this morning. Probably the most birds I've ever seen in my life! The video doesn't do it justice, there were clouds of them moving through. Nature is amazing. #birds #flyways

This piece from @meganakpeters.bsky.social is a really thoughtful and thorough examination of how complex credit and authorship in science really is.

megan peters 🧠 @meganakpeters.bsky.social · 11d

This is such a horrifically bad idea that I don't even know where to begin.

Oh wait, yes I do. I wrote a whole article about it last year: www.thetransmitter.org/publishing/a...

Google Scholar tool gives extra credit to first and last authors

Researchers welcome the initiative, but say it doesn’t go far enough to capture the nuance of researcher productivity and impact.

Yet again, we can't afford to let LLMs become a source of epistemic grounding for society.

This is what happens when you don’t share, kids. Look out for the murder shout. One otter shouts “jump him” and they all dive in. Pandemonium with whiskers
