Find someone who believes in you like researchers believe in pre-post differences as valid treatment effect estimates.

A digital CAPTCHA verification window titled "Select all squares with PIPES" against a plain white background. The window contains a 3×3 grid of numbered squares, mixing literal hardware, smoking pipes, and programming syntax.
These captchas just keep getting harder #rstats
Pooh meme: bored, I don't know anything about this... smug: this is beyond the scope of the paper

Never, ever, write chapters in edited volumes. No one can read them, they are trees that fall in a forest when there is no one around to see it. Do yourself a favor, and post a preprint, or start a blog. It will likely have 1000 time more impact.
All major typewriters can be used to either commit academic fraud or facilitate junk science, a test of 13 models has found.

New preprint! 🎉 How much post-publication correction takes place in privacy and security research? Short answer: not so much.
With Nele Borgert, Luisa Jansen, Theresa Halbritter (none on Bluesky), and @malte.the100.ci
Yes please let's normalize errors, their discovery, their correction, and their integration into the literature. "Corrections Not Found: Post-Publication Integrity in Usable Security and Privacy Research" (osf.io/preprints/ps...)
Two new papers from the lab on research practices in security & privacy research: 1) Reliability of measures and the use of Cronbach's α osf.io/preprints/ps..., 2) Practices around retraction and correction notices by ACM and IEEE (osf.io/preprints/ps...)
Don't worry, if you are the kind of person that does (and enjoys) that, they probably hated you already
Vor einigen Jahren war es noch kompliziert, über das deutsche Bundesarchiv NSDAP-Mitgliedschaften abzufragen. Nun haben die National Archives in den USA anscheinend die gesamte Zentralkartei ins Netz gestellt. Jedenfalls ein sehr tolles Tool für Mikrogeschichte. catalog.archives.gov/id/12044361

Worst episode of “Is it cake?” ever
Wiktionary entry placenta: Etymology Elision for phrases such as New Latin placenta uterī (“womb cake”), placenta uterina (“uterine cake”), from Latin placenta (“flat cake”), because of the flat round shape of the afterbirth. Doublet of palacsinta and palatschinke.
Whoever named the placenta must have been exceedingly hungry at the time 🫣
