@AnaLRodriguezD Interesting! Can you please share which book? Thanks

After a month of suffering the most disabling time of my life, this book has better words than I could ever have to express how vulnerability *can* become a window to catch a glimpse of how much we are loved, which purpose we serve 1/

The joy of sharing your work on social media...

This!

“While intended to make the scientific literature more accessible, it is now reported that OA publishing fees deter researchers in the global south from performing research and our own study has already raised the same concern from an African perspective”

@7didane Probably gonna be a case-by-case ruling. Which doesn’t bode well for artists I guess. Image source: lexisnexis.com/community/insi…

Est-ce que les IA comme #dalle2, #cockpit ou #gpt3 qui sont présentés comme des « aides à la création »s’inspirent de copyrights ou les plagient ? Leurs propriétaires peuvent gagner de l’argent sans rémunérer les oeuvres qui ont servi pour entraîner ces IA ?

@Nouronal Totally agree.

Of all of the “dangers of AI” papers, this is most worrying: AI researchers building a tool to find new drugs to save lives realized it could do the opposite, generating new chemical warfare agents. Within 6 hours it invented deadly VX… and worse things nature.com/articles/s4225…

Just announced in #SciPy2022: Real-time collaboration is finally coming to @ProjectJupyter! It is available in beta now.

We are organizing Network Inequality satellite @netsci2022 with a great line of speakers and we have limited financial scholarships. sites.google.com/view/netin-sat…

Had an absolute blast competing alongside @BayramUlya at the CLPsych workshop (@CLPsychOrg) again this year! Grateful to the D&I award for making our presentation at #NAACL2022 possible!

Our study titled "The unknown knowns: a graph-based approach for temporal COVID-19 literature mining" is out: emerald.com/insight/conten… With my co-authors @lammiia, Runia Roy, and @aqilassalil, we're proposing a framework to efficiently utilize the scientific knowledge on COVID-19

@Un_Marocain I was just reading about this here and wondering what exactly our strategy will look like. I’m pretty curious! science.sciencemag.org/content/early/…

وحاجة عادية الناس اللي مراض أو كبار فالسن ماشي هوما اللي خاصهم اللقاح، يلا ماتو شنو غادي يوقع للمجتمع والو، ماشي بحال يلا ماتو الشباب اللي خدامين عليهم. غير بالعقل.

حاجة باينة الأغنياء هوما اللي خاصهم اللقاح الأولين، يلا ماتو الأغنياء شكون غادي يخلص الفقراء اللي خدامين عندهم ؟ شوية المنطق.

Decided to start a wiki of sort for all resources I often share with my PhD students. I will be updating it regularly and would welcome any suggestions 😄 nodesandedges.me/article.php?id… #AcademicTwitter

@Yniim I like to read the school of life’s books, not necessarily just De Botton. I do recommend :-)

@lammiia Noté ! Plusieurs personnes m'ont déjà recommandé de lire De Botton, mais jamais lu so far.

Des recommandations de bons livres ou films que vous avez découvert récemment ? Mon week-end s'annonce solitaire et ennuyeux.

"Data science performs at its best when coupled with the subtle art of modelling"

@ChamRayStanford Oooh don’t get me started on the data scientists 😂😂

@lammiia Yeah, the same way everybody and their moms are now data scientists. In 2020+, everyone will be an infodemiologist apparently. THIS is in itself an epidemic 😂

The term infodemiology was coined in 2002, the wiki page was created in 2014. But now, I’m sure we’ll be seeing ‘infodemiologist’ all over our LinkedIn

@manlius84 Agreed. I‘m just curious to see who will claim the title, as it is often the case with buzz profiles 😅

@moroccanpeopIe When I was young, we used to do the monument tour on some Fridays. Best memories of my childhood. Makes one appreciate the beauty of History.
