@freemo Only makes (human... ) sense during a surplus of open position. Otherwise you have a race to the bottom - bad enough for some companies (e.g. think of critical infrastructure - water supply etc), but a bankrupt company does not necessarily imply major human suffering. But as a worker at one point you might not earn enough to sustain you/family/kids etc. Og course, you could think of "outsourcing" that to the state but then every citizen subsidies that specific industry sector. Better to let the sector pay, ergo minimum wages
Found it! (Thanks @largess)
If the world's richest 10% reduced their carbon footprint to the EU mean, carbon emissions would fall by 32%.
@AndreJueling @OceanIceEU
Amazing, many thanks!
Fantastic, exactly the examples I was looking for!
@kst There are some, like @OceanIceEU for example.
@kst We have an Horizon project on Mastodon at @ndcaspects
Are you receiving EU funding under #HorizonEU ?
Do you find it hard to see the difference between:
🟪 Communication
🟩 Dissemination
🟧 Exploitation
Check out our new guidance and the @EU_Commission tools available to support your #research project.
@mojala Yep, probably should try to get an account there
In the process to establish the standard European Project Twitter account and naturally I was thinking to do the alternative on Mastodon. However, so far I have not seen any scientific projects (Horizon Europe or otherwise) having their own handle on Mastodon - it this just something we dont do here? #academic #science #siencedissemination
Dear followers here on mastodon, ever since MurX took over, I've regarded mstdn as my home base. But I've posted 'over there' in parallel because too many important actors still refuse to be here. And in my field, with my objective of contributing mainly original content, being part of a much larger conversation that might change the debate in climate science and social ecology amid all the backlash remains important.
But I am done, and this is what I posted there.
A thread 🧵.

I just burned a bunch of hours for a client because they consulted Google Bard for legal advice on website requirements that were contradictory.
I did my best to carry out the changes, but they didn't make sense. I couldn't get it right. After a few failed attempts, I finally asked what was behind the request.
They told me Bard told them they had to do something. I was confused. I thought Bard was the name of their legal counsel.
Then I realized... no Bard is Google Bard! So I started doing looking up answers myself and quickly came to the conclusion that stupid AI gave them the wrong "answers" It only took me about 15 minutes to get a real answer and then confirm them by reading the actual text of the law.
Thanks a lot #AI. #GoogleBard #Bard #ChatGPT
Aktuelle Stimmung im Fediverse ist Zusammensitzen und Twitter aus sicherer Entfernung beim brennen zusehen.
Please, I'm begging you, if you're a researcher, archive your data, back up your files, have a data succession plan.
Chat to your library, chat to your colleagues. The best time is as you collect the data, the second best time is now.
I'm dealing with multiple different data nightmares now. People leave academia, people retire, people pass away with a plan to make a plan.
No judgement here, just sadness for all that hard work thrown into uncertainty.
