DataCite and OpenAlex have launched a new integration to amplify the discoverability and impact of open research, with over 92 million DataCite DOIs now available in OpenAlex. DataCite member organizations that register DOIs will now see their research outputs and resources indexed in OpenAlex.
Wie schon in den vergangenen Jahren findet auch dieses Jahr im Oktober wieder die internationale Open Access Week statt.
Auch im vergangenen Quartal wurden wieder einige wissenschaftliche Open-Access-Veröffentlichungen von Forschenden brandenburgischer Hochschulen durch den Publikationsfonds des Landes Brandenburg unterstützt. Die geförderten Monografien spiegeln die thematische Vielfalt der Forschung im Land Brandenburg wider: von Medien- und Kulturwissenschaft über Rechtswissenschaft bis hin zu interdisziplinären Ansätzen zwischen Kunst und Wissenschaft.
I recently wrote about Picking a web framework for a project at work. We’re moving from an R Shiny app to something else. We weren’t sure what that something else should be so I rebuilt the app (in part) in three different web frameworks (each in a different programming language): FastAPI (Python) Rails (Ruby) Svelte (JavaScript) I decided to go with FastAPI for many reasons - go read the post linked above.
I have a script (a custom static site generator) that produces the output at https://ticitaci.com – a page for the record label on which I have released music (and that I really, really love).
This is part 5 of a series of posts [1] about ICFP 2025. In addition to giving a bunch of talks about Docker, post-POSIX and planetary computing, the greatest fun at a huge conference like ICFP and SPLASH is seeing talks given by my students (they grow up so fast!) and collaborators, and generally floating around random talks trying to deceipher ancient Greek lambdas floating on a projector.
Au deuxième jour de leurs travaux en direct, les professionnels de la santé congolais sont passés de la découverte à l’exploration des causes profondes qui laissent des centaines de milliers d’enfants exposés aux maladies évitables par la vaccination. Ils découvrent que les racines du problème sont souvent là où personne ne les attend: dans l’économie de la pêche, le dialogue avec les églises ou la gestion des camps de déplacés.
Die GEMA führt derzeit zwei Musterverfahren in Sachen Künstliche Intelligenz: Sie wirft dem Musik-KI-Dienst Suno sowie OpenAI vor, geschützte Musikwerke zu reproduzieren. Aber auch das unvergütete Training der KI-Dienste mit Musikwerken aus ihrem Repertoire greift sie an. Wir haben mit dem GEMA-Justiziar Kai Welp über die Verfahren und die Hintergründe gesprochen.
Have you ever wondered exactly what happens once you request a new ROR record or suggest a change to an existing ROR record? In this blog post, we take you through all the steps involved in ROR's open, community-driven process for making sure that the information in the ROR registry is complete and accurate.
(This is part 4 of my ICFP25 series: see also 1. Chairing PROPL25, 2. OxCaml tutorial, 3. OCaml 5 with Jane Street and Docker, 5. What I learnt) After the excitement of presenting my Docker experience report, I went straight into giving a keynote talk at VMIL 2025.
At the sixth NFDI4Chem consortium meeting, Torsten Schrade from the NFDI4Culture consortium gave a lovely and whimsical talk entitled A Data Alchemist’s Journey through NFDI which explored ways that we might federate and jointly query both consortia’s knowledge via their respective SPARQL endpoints. He proposed a toy example in which he linked paintings depicting alchemists trying to make gold to compounds containing gold.
