So now the deadbird site, formerly known as Twitter, is inviting developers to come back and "build what's next" with the much abused API.

Twitter (and Reddit)'s greed-infused API restrictions wrecked a project we (ASU News Co/Lab) were doing to help journalists send corrections down the same social media pathways as the original journalism.

The idea what we'd ever work with them again is a sick joke.

Great news: Free KN95 masks are now available from public health vending machines in NYC.

This is amazing work! Not everyone can afford to buy high quality masks regularly. If we want more people to wear masks, high quality masks should be available for free everywhere. Having them in public health vending machines in NYC is a great first step!

Emulsifiers are widely present in ultra-processed foods. A new #PLOSBiology study reveals that, in mice, maternal #emulsifier consumption during gestation and lactation leads to metabolic and neural impairments in the offspring. #metabolism #diet

In 1975, Icelandic women earned 40% less than men; today it is only 10%. A "Women's Day Off" strike was held in 1975; 90% of women refused to work. It shut down the country. In response Iceland passed a Gender Equality Act & elected a female president.

Brexit Wars part II: Right-wing Conservatives want Britain out of the European Convention on Human Rights.

For years, UK Conservatives seeking right-wing support have floated idle threats to pull Britain out of Europe’s top human rights treaty. This time, they might actually mean it.

It would be a seismic decision. The only European nations that are not members are Russia — expelled last year after invading Ukraine — and Belarus.

More on #RishiSunak's prevarication about (re)joining the EU's #horizon research funding programme:

no surprise that the continued delay to conluding the deal (already mostly finalised) is leading #scientists & research staff to either decamp to new jobs in the EU or not apply to come to the UK to join research projects....

My guess is by now the damage is irreversible, become yet one more cost of #Brexit & the #Tories political myopia.

once again #headinmyhands
