Germany may not officially celebrate, but I will take the opportunity presented by today to be thankful for my colleagues in the @enricounigoe.bsky.social research training group. I would not have made it so far without their support and friendship!

Some are suggesting you deliberately write inaccurate or confusing alt text, because they say this confuses AI scrapers that are analyzing images.
The purpose of alt text is to help people who cannot see the image. Deliberately misrepresenting the image is a gross misuse of alt text. Don't do it.

A deadly fire ant has reached European shores. The insect invasion could wreak havoc
The red imported fire ant is one of the world’s most destructive invasive species. Can its spread be stopped?
