My session with @thepacketrat @jfslowik and @CynthiaBrumfield was just posted from the World Ethical Data Forum. We chatted about critical infrastructure and the cyberattacks challenging it. If you're bored...

Hi Mastodon! I'm a journalist at @sciencemagazine, where I delve into stories about the scientific community and the various challenges that come with pursuing a career in science. I'm a former scientist myself—I earned a Ph.D. in ecology and did a stint as a postdoc before realizing that the best career path for me lay elsewhere. Feel free to get in touch if you'd like to introduce yourself or suggest a story idea. #ScienceMastodon #academicchatter

Hey ya’ll! I am a proud product of the West Side of San Antonio. I stumbled into fundraising after college and have never looked back. I’ve spent the past decade working to uplift marginalized and unheard voices, in nonprofit health and human services. I eagerly shifted gears and joined the business side of @TexasObserver in May 2022 and am excited to be a part of this fearless newsroom.

#introduction

Physicists have created the first-ever #wormhole, a kind of tunnel theorized in 1935 by Albert #Einstein and Nathan #Rosen that leads from one place to another by passing into an extra dimension of #space.

The wormhole emerged like a hologram out of quantum bits of information.

Although the work’s interpretation remains disputed, it represents a step towards understanding the #quantum nature of #gravity. https://www.quantamagazine.org/physicists-create-a-wormhole-using-a-quantum-computer-20221130/

Just heard that a school district is blocking Teachers Pay Teachers due to malware/ransomware issues. Can anyone corroborate this? I think it was in Illinois? #edtech

I no longer post on Twitter, but occasionally visit to read items from people I haven't yet seen on other services.

I was presented with your post of Nov 22 where you asked "What’s the driving force behind many infosec people jumping from Twitter? Unhappy with Elon’s cuts? Or who he’s letting back into the platform? A genuine belief he’s driving it into the ground? Other? Everything seems normal from here, why the exodus?"

(My server has a short char limit, so see thread)

I'm getting a reputation here at #Mastodon as some kind of Ronco Boost-O-Matic™. And I appreciate that, seriously.

But I'm really struggling with certain posts. These are often newsworthy, interesting or just plain funny-as-shite toots. Except... they contain links back to #Twitter.

We need to stop giving #SpaceKaren any more click revenue to keep that Effin' Bird on life support.

Attribution? Sure. But please copy and paste the text or just screenshot it. Anything but a link.

Thank you.

Direct Messages on Mastodon are probably one of the most confusing things for new users as they aren't really like messages on other platforms.

I have done my best to explain what they are in a few minutes for you all here. Check it out and let me know if it helps.
More tips still to come so stay tuned.

Please give it a #boost if you can to help spread the knowledge around the Fediverse.

For those that joined #Mastodon and grabbed the first server they could find, but would prefer to #migrate to a different one, I created a short guide on how to do this quickly and easily.
It also allows you to easily move any followers across to your new profile and leaves a redirection on your old profile for those that find it to help them get to your new one. 😁👍

I'd love if you could share it among your networks to help those that will invariably need it later on.
