It’s now clear that information on U.S. government websites can no longer be trusted.

It’s both heartbreaking and infuriating to see how quickly this administration has undermined science, public health, and the credibility of our scientific institutions.

💯 Go read this excellent piece.

I've been trying to write this piece for years. Every time I get started I'm just overwhelmed with paralyzing visions of the FOSS commentariat accusing me of WrongThink.

We had an amazing OME-NGFF hackathon last week, Wednesday to Friday, following the inspiring OME-NGFF symposium. What a fantastic week! It’s hard to describe how motivating it is to be surrounded by so many talented, curious & friendly people who care deeply about open, FAIR bioimaging data.

Hi Fans of Feedback Microscopy,

what would you do when you have access to the pixel stream from @zeiss-microscopy.bsky.social inside @napari.org?

Btw, it works as well in Fiji&ImageJ :-)

Sidenote: Experiments started from "outside" do not update the ZEN UI. But they are executed by ZENservice.
