Great piece by @matthewgburgess and @RogerPielkeJr on the harms to scholarship, public trust, and society when science journals and universities become partisan. Prime example being the negative effects Nature’s endorsement of Biden had on trust.

Not only is Invisible Child one of the most interesting books, but it is also one of the best books I’ve ever read. It’s an incredible, tragic, heart-wrenching story of homelessness in the most prosperous city in America, told through the eyes of a child.

Great piece from ⁦@biblioracle⁩ on what the ChatGPT can & can’t do, & what it does & doesn’t mean for writing in #highered. “If we assume students want to learn -& I do- we should show our interest in their learning, rather than their performance.”
