Cheryl G KassonA pleasure!
Heliograph@jeffowski "three-blogs-in-a-trenchcoat" is hilarious 😆 😂
QuincyOtter@jeffowski Also be sure to avoid Arxiv

Matt@jeffowski @petergleick another pro tip, just email the authors. I’ve always been able to get a copy of an article and answers to my questions by talking with the authors.

And this also helps you to avoid moral burden of using service made by a stalinist (google "Alexandra Elbakyan"). Not saying, that we don't need such service, we do. But we also kinda try to care about reputations and morality, don't we?

lindesbs #FckAFD@jeffowski darüber sollte @minkorrekt auch mal wieder aufklären
Der Entgegner (Aka Ratatöskr)@jeffowski well... Writing my doctorate, I bought articles for about 2.000€ (and wrote them off via tax refund down the road later) and that's just.
But I agree: I was indeed privileged to have 2.000€ to spend and via that tax-reclaim, indeed the public paid for this little part of my doctorate, and I paid it back through good medical service and determination.
But everyone seeking knowledge and enlightenment should always have free access to science.
Professionals should have to pay.
@jeffowski It's missing the URL so I can add it to my blocklist
René Seindal (MOVED)@jeffowski In hindsight it was a major mistake switching from Latin to the vernacular.
@jeffowski
I have tried, but not all doi numbers can be found. The cake is a lie ;) You can ask the authors of the papers though, some will just hand you a free copy if you ask nicely

Gje@jeffowski good to know :P
Anna@jeffowski As a teacher of IB and the high school students being told to access academic and peer reviewed journals in order to get the top marks in their IA and EE essays... This is great help. Thanks!

@jeffowski Fun fact: the scientists themselves don’t get any cut whatsoever when people buy the articles.
OS/1337@jelly @jeffowski IFC nit and if it wasn't criminalized I'd personally encourage every academic to leak their writings to #SciHub within seconds of their release...
