Germany decided not to turn its back on privacy, at the last minute. We're very happy for that.

But we're not out of the woods yet, and awareness raising like this is essential.

At the FORRT Replication Hub, our mission is to support researchers who want to replicate previous findings. We have now published a big new component with which we want to fulfill this mission: An open access handbook for reproduction and replication studies: forrt.org/replication_...

<As academics and university-level educators, we have the responsibility to educate our students, (…) not to normalise our students' and mentees' avoidance of deep thought. Universities are about engaging deeply with the subject matter... our funding must not be misspent on profit-making companies>

AI impact: democracy and energetic sustainability.

It’s affect all the way down.

We haven’t solved the problem of human motivation because it’s unsolvable (in current form). A solution: Motivation centers on a single source of value - affect.

The <“derivation chain” (Meehl, 1990).. necessary for translating theoretical claims into empirical predictions (Scheel et al., 2021). Any weak element in the deriv.chain — a vague theoretical concept, an unreliable measure, an untested assumption — can invalidate the inference drawn from the data.>

Minimum resistance: Challenge every new 'initiative' if you think it comes with more costs than benefits.

Moderate: Petition for change. You can do this within your University (Microsoft Forms) with other like-minded people.

Bold: Lobby funders. Why should they waste money? More on this soon.

Same in Portugal, unfortunately.
