Op zondag 21 december organiseren we rondleidingen in de radiotelescoop! Kom langs en kom luisteren naar een pulsar en de zon, of zie de signalen van onze eigen Melkweg, of nog heel andere melkwegstelsels.

Yesterday, we gathered for our annual end-of-year meeting, and as tradition dictates we awarded the most prestigious and coveted titles of the year.
From ferret socializing to coffee consumption, here’s who took home the trophies. ⬇️
In the Netherlands the national open science organisation OS-NL awarded 45 (out of 174) open science infrastructure proposals. This means that in the next few years 35M euro will be invested in small and large, narrow and wide projects to improve open science infrastructure.https://www.openscience.nl/en/news/45-projects-strengthen-dutch-open-science-infrastructure A.o on metadata, diamond publishing, PRC publishing, YODA data archive, citizen data, describing historical documents, funghi data, open source software for mechanical ventilation. And much more.

Has anyone ever heard of a (UK?) journal called University Computing? Know where I could find archives? Long shot, but this paper could contain info that helps us open-source a remarkable operating system developed by the UK MoD in the 1970s and 1980s. Boosts appreciated!

UPDATE: All sorted now, thanks! Crossing fingers that it may help...

A few days ago we learned that Oliver Sacks is The Man Who Mistook His Inner Demons For Data. Now here's a paper showing that the nudging literature is bullshit

I'm beginning to think that getting your non-fiction book on the front table at an airport Hudson News is as reliable an indicator of fraud as the Forbes 30 Under 30 list

For good social science, I can't recommend _The Ordinal Society_ by Marion Fourcade and Kieran Healy highly enough
