A huge thanks to Anita Bandrowski of #SciCrunch & @rrids.bsky.social for the fantastic Deep Dive into Research Resource IDentifiers - #RRIDs.

An increasing number of journals are requesting that researchers use RRIDs - particularly in #biomedicine.

We can easily solve the problem of LLM-generated nonsense papers by requiring them to be typeset on a typewriter, with hand-written equations, and submitted to journals by mail.

#MedicaidCutsKillUs

Medicaid is not just for those in poverty, which is so important. It funds most nursing home care, 40% of births, and 38% of children's health care.

Tell the Republicans in Congress not to cut Medicaid to fund billionaire tax breaks!

Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella 2025 last night.

So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

Have you ever wondered why information in tables is so difficult to pull out of PDF files? Our paper on this topic was just released by the journal of BigDataMining, which may have editors who do not pass the Turning test, but at the reviewers were great. Thank You!

Dear Prime Minister Trudeau,

Many 🇺🇸 living in border states with 🇨🇦 wish us to become your southernmost province.

This sentiment reflects our admiration for the values and stability that Canada represents, in contrast to the dictatorial tendencies of our current government.

Sincerely,
Dr. Len
