Researchers spend significant amounts of time to add non-traditional contributions (e.g. radio interview, blogpost) to their institutional research information management system. With colleagues at SURF, @npub1lmj…khsq and I devised a Mastodon-based approach to automate that tedious job for Dutch researchers. And, based on lessons learned, we wrote a blueprint to encourage others to make the same functionality available to their communities.

My personal utterly negative experience is about departure. I’ve been the victim of Ryanair’s attempts to meet their Key Performance Indicators (and hence avoid customer refunds) once too many. As an example, I’ve literally stood for 30+ minutes with all other passengers on a hot jetway so they could meet their boarding deadline. It took so long that several passengers had to go back in the terminal because nature called.

I have pertinently decided not to ever fly Ryanair again. Even if they have direct flights to places I’d love to visit. You want to start your vacation on a totally wrong footing because of the humiliation that is a (the only?) guaranteed part of your travel package, go for Ryanair. You really want a vacation but can’t afford an alternative carrier to get you there, I dare suggest to find an alternative destination. Wonderful places all over, even close to home.

This looks like a major blow to the global makers community “Did Qualcomm kill Arduino for good?“

In which it becomes obvious that the overall term AI was (re)introduced to cause confusion. Focused Machine Learning on well curated datasets and “general purpose” LLM learning on all human knowledge that can be grabbed are thrown in the same AI basket while they have fundamentally different characteristics, ethical considerations, and goals.
