Reminded me of that Instagram account where a guy buys only food he can't pronounce. Now imagine the can said "pasulj". Full experience.
So glad this story is gaining traction & wanted to highlight that @andrewdeck.bsky.social at @niemanlab.org broke the news that NYT/Guardian/USA Today were blocking IA earlier this year. Encourage all to read: www.niemanlab.org/2026/01/news...
I've been reading a lot of papers on making data AI-ready and what I'm finding is that most of them report practices that were best practices before AI.
Good documentation, standardization, interoperable formats, clear naming conventions, etc.
Is there something new we should be doing though?
Cool, thank you!
Interesting, thank you! I'm guessing that's "lives" as the plural of "life", not from the verb "to live"? But otherwise a probable origin! 😊
Not "kept" or "taken care of"? 🫣 But I get it, it definitely depends on the audience!
Question: Have people always said that DATA LIVES somewhere (in folders, repositories, etc.), or did that phrasing pick up with genAI? I've been noticing it a lot lately and it still sounds a bit off to me, but maybe I just never paid attention before... 😅
Data Management Plan Mad Lib 😄

First week of training at the new job wrapped up! Main impression: I used to code for data analysis and use GUIs for surveys... Now I'm learning to do the opposite: coding for surveys, GUI for analysis. Same skills, swapped contexts. Funny adjustment. 🙃👩💻

Do you mean this paper?
Thank you 😊
Thank you!
Hi all! I started an industry job this week and I'm really hyped about it (as my LinkedIn maybe, as some would say, prematurely reflects). Not sure yet how that will fit with my Mastodon/Bluesky presence. We'll see, but for this month or maybe even this quarter, I may be a bit quieter here. 😅
Thank you! I found some screenshots and posts once I learnt the name behind it. FOMO averted.
A full disc image of Earth, as seen from the Orion Crew Module. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. At lower left, a large brown landmass is Africa, with Spain and Portugal with twinkling lights where the planet curves. At top right, auroras glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space (pic: NASA/R.Wiseman)
More context on this #Artemis II image:
* This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right
* The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon:

I got attached to a red pin of a Stegosaurus when I was a kid. I still think they're cool: plant-eaters, minding their own business, not out there picking fights, but with those plates and that spiked tail, definitely not afraid to finish one. 😅
Oh my word 😂
I recently shared a blog post written by Britt DeVries on how she used ChatGPT to create REDCap data dictionaries. I was so inspired by her post that I wrote my own on my experience using Claude to create a data dictionary draft.

What did the deleted post say? 🥲
🧵1/ Our first meta-science paper (with 350+ coauthors) is published today in Nature. It presents one of the largest-ever reproducibility projects in economics & political science.
Here’s what we found 👇
DRP satirical statement on the kitkat theft
For those who have not heard, 12 tons of #KitKats were stolen in Europe. We don't REALLY have enough KitKats to send to every DRP rescuer for every rescued dataset...but maybe we do, who knows.

Doesn't work for me again either.
Useful chart showing the number of hours per day, varying from 23 to 25. The mean, mode and median is 24 though
Happy shortest day of the year
Not just tragic but also heavily politicized, it needs to be put into context of the recent student blockades and university strikes to be completely understood.
