‘Wider humanities & social science fields are underrepresented; communities… are often not centred; and these perspectives are often only included after key research decisions have already been made.’
Excellent ‘genomics in context’ call from @wellcometrust.bsky.social

But then you look at the cost of strata in all the new build apartments and pluck away with joy.

Hard copy is usually beautiful. The fade comes from a worn microfilm of the original. That also means if you have access to a different copy of the microfilm that it can be better too.

But how do you even stop this? If my uni told me this, I’d be very happy to remove their bi-line from the remainder of things I produce that year. Are they going to fire me for writing too much?

The ethics of this are also really dubious. In Oz we have compulsory superannuation, which is invested by the company your super is with. You can sometimes indicate whether you are conservative or not but don’t select your investment. And if the stock market crashes two weeks before retirement …
