I'm a huge lover of #PublicLibraries and would like to have a platform to save my favourite libraries, share them, etc. I was thinking of building a small #ATproto based app that can do this, so my favourite libraries are saved in my PDS. Would anybody interested in such a thing?

The ESM forcing files for #CMIP7 #ScenarioMIP are now up on the Earth System Grid for the two advanced-priority scenarios High (H) and Very Low (VL). CMIP7 H is significantly lower emissions than CMIP6's SSP585 - and VL has more radical near-term decarbonisation than anything we had in CMIP6.

The UNFCCC underpins global climate action. It brings countries together to support climate action, reduce emissions, adapt to climate change, and track progress. The decision by the world’s largest economy and second-largest emitter to retreat from it is regrettable and unfortunate.

Here's a suggestion for a New Year's resolution: If you see influential bad research, say something. One part of the whole replication crisis story is that a lot of psychological researchers privately knew that a lot of stuff was bad, but it wasn't discussed publicly.
A hope for 2026 is that this perspective piece with @wiringthebrain.bsky.social & @deevybee.bsky.social will serve as a template for others who are similarly frustrated with with exaggerated claims and double speak around so much of research. It's ok to point out that the emperor has no clothes!
The link between the gut #microbiome and autism is not backed by science, researchers say.
