Hello 👋. Nice to #welcome you here. Hope you had a good start so far... and had time to mingle with many interesting people. Thanks for the hint. Unfortunately we don't know of any possibility to adjust this afterwards. But we are happy to find @aliceroberts in #Fediverse .
No worries! From version 4.0 of Mastodon it is possible to edit posts - a great feature - but you may not be on that yet. Thanks for getting back to me and for your work. We flipped to full OA for all our research at #BJGP a couple of years ago, things are changing! 😀
totally agree! This is why I also want the #edtech apps we create in our #research labs to be free for all #teachers. But maintaining #ApplicationsSoftware has a cost. Who will pay for this? 💰💰 I haven't quite figured it our yet... 🤔
I'm so fortunate that my mother, who was raised in the era where women went to college to get their MRS degree and settle down, rather than have a career, studied architecture in college and encouraged me from earliest childhood to be curious about the world and how it works. Therefore, I've loved science all my life!
One of my favourite quotes is from Marin Mersenne Harmonie universelle 1636: "Science belongs to both rich and poor, and there is nothing so low and vile in nature that it not be worthy of discussion"
Science isn't knowledge. It's a process. And that's not the only problem with her: she's portrayed as more than just a science expert... but has never discovered or invented anything significant... then defends this by saying all scientists now just make tiny contributions.
It's OK that many do, but she then implies that anyone discovering big problems with orthodoxy isn't a scientist.
Most of that knowledge is now stored in electronic form on the "cloud", etc, - is another reason to not cause a cultural collapse by degrading ecology.
Having said that, the desire to fly on Jets to Disney land, etc, is more of a priority to lay people. But, in the age of severe ecological degradation, priorities will shift.
Nextcloud has an App called "Collectives" and I plan to use it as a place to collect whatever knowledge I do and present it as collections publicly to the web. It's Federated and the platform is collaborative friendly.
Furthermore Yunohost is an excellent backend web server management system. There is probably a proper noun for this but everyone who wants to build their own webserver might be very interested in Yunohost.
