Finally the weekend, I can do whatever I like. Me: making R stats memes and puns (an old vice), and reading an Icelandic horror novel (a habit I picked up recently). Yes, that's the stuff.
Me at work, every day. #RStats
@alelazic so R14 is the new name :)
I saw someone write arXiv as ARXIV (all caps) and thought it was a new drug. #arXiv

Starting September 2026, Google will require every Android app developer to register centrally, provide government ID, and submit signing key evidence. Apps from unregistered developers will be blocked on all certified devices worldwide. This threatens F-Droid, open-source distribution, and user autonomy. @keepandroidopen https://keepandroidopen.org

Keep Android Open

Your phone is about to stop being yours. In September 2026, Google will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with them.

there is a significant number of scholars/scientists who (still) blog. A lot of early semantic web and #openscience discussions happened on this open "platform".

Rogue Scholar (@rogue_scholar) is archiving new and old blogs, and just passed the 50 thousand blog posts. All citable by @crossref DOIs, all archived in the @internetarchive, all under an open license. https://blog.front-matter.de/posts/rogue-scholar-50-000/

I still hope to see more 2005-2015 science blogs archived.

Rogue Scholar has now archived 50,000 science blog posts

The science blog archive Rogue Scholar last week achieved an important milestone: archiving 50,000 science blog posts, will searchable full-text, rich metadata, and DOIs. Rogue Scholar started to archive science blog posts in April 2023, started archiving all content with the Internet Archive Archive-It service in October 2023, started

In other news, stepped back from Strava. I started running a little over three years ago and somewhere along the way the app stopped being about running and started being about performance.

I don't know. I've deleted a bunch of apps lately so it could be a me thing.

Managed a little 4k in 26°C heat this morning. Small wins.

Also had a realization: I'm fully logging off on weekends now. This is the first time in my life I've done this. Never in grad school, never in academia. Feels strange... 😕

Changed my work Slack photo to the same photo but with a slightly different facial expression. Hoping to create a low-grade psychological disturbance over time.

Some time ago, I've found a website called "Delightful Lists", which has curated directories of FOSS, open science, and open data resources, worth taking a look:

Some that caught my attention were lists for Creative Tools, Fediverse Clients, Funding, Humane Design, Libre Hosters, Matrix, Open Science, and Sustainable VPS.
