You are not a "human resource", you are a human being.

For people new to the workforce, Human Resources Departments might be staffed by nice people, but they work for the interests of management.

If you want an entity that looks out your interests as a worker, that's what labor unions are for.

Something really cool happened to me this year!

@HRBridges re-processed a #CryoEM dataset from some previous work of mine and colleagues (publicly available as EMPIAR-10739; see quoted post below for a summary of this work). She […]

If your #fediverse instance is run by an entity accepting donations (typically, an individual or an association), and you can afford to make a donation, do it!

Even small donations are better than nothing and will help keep the lights on!

«Kovid betrayed us with Calibre 8.16.2, and we as a community never should have let that happen, never have placed such a burden on individual generosity. The synthesis of these two truths, then, is nearly self-evident. There must be a new effort, free from AI encumbrances, that is built from […]

In any kind of normal timeline this would have been stopped by regulators. Instead we let a single company become the sole gatekeeper for everything in #hpc .

If you were born after 1994 in South Africa, it’s easy to forget that being gay used to be a crime. 🏳️‍🌈🚫 While the racism of #apartheid is well-documented, the regime's extreme homophobia is often overlooked.

Under the National Party, it wasn't just […]

I was reading someone talk about the difference between an academic ML conference and a hypey industry AI conference and they said ‘it’s like the difference between chemistry and alchemy. Or between astronomy and astrology.’

I really like that

Had no internet at home since yesterday morning. I eventually traced back the problem to the fact that I had set up the router to use https://www.dns0.eu as the DNS resolver. Apparently it no longer exists, and was replaced by https://www.joindns4.eu

Streptavidin and streptactin can't be used interchangeably.

I wish I had educated myself about this before I wasted a day (and reagents) on a failed experiment. But at least now with first-hand experience, I will never forget this lesson. 😅
