The first rule of research integrity is always cite your sources. In fact, if there was only 1 rule, that would be it. Almost all research misconduct boils down to someone trying to take credit for work, discoveries, achievements, or ideas that aren’t their own.

I put these Book Week posts into sequence with a level of forethought about one notch above pure randomness, but a felicity emerged. It’s useful for me to cover The Last Days of the Dinosaurs after the previous three books, each for a particular reason.

Our neighbours France and the UK announced a Franco-British AI collaboration a few months ago dubbed the Entente CordIAle. Last week we held a couple of days of workshops with our Oxford and French buddies deep diving into details of what a partnership might actually involve; a particular pleasure with France given my group's long history of working with Inria on OCaml and other open source projects.
