Happy #WhiskersWednesday everyone! As I learned from a lady who feeds these feral cats in central Athens, this cat's name is Sophia. 😻

Auch die heutigen Beobachtungen des motorisierten Verkehrs lassen wieder nur zwei Schlussfolgerungen zu:
1) Der Sprit ist viel zu billig.
2) Deutsche Autofahrys haben viel zu viel Geld.
#Monday ^-.-^

I'm an old fart who grew up watching (and loving) #StarTrek #NextGen and the other Rick Berman shows #DS9, #Voyager, and #Enterprise … and I gotta say: #StarfleetAcademy is the first post-Berman reboot of the franchise I truly enjoyed. Its creators returned to Gene Roddenberry's optimistic vision of the future as infinite diversity in infinite combinations. #IDIC 🖖
Well done! I feel quite sad about its premature cancellation. 😢
How to get from A to B by bicycle?

Heute ist #Astronomietag2026 am @mpsgoettingen@academiccloud.social
Das Programm rund ums Thema #Mond liest sich wirklich spannend. 🌔
Unfortunately not an #AprilFools joke:
In our #Ampelokipoi neighbourhood of #Athens, #Greece, the police inspected the roof of a 16-story apartment building following a complaint. On the roof, they found a small farm (!) with 15 goats, 36 chickens, and three ducks.
Satellite/aerial images of the building also show several green areas that seem to be vegetable patches. 😶
Heute wieder #Bahnfahrn …
… an einem Donnerstagnachmittag vorm langen Wochenende …
… auf Verbindungen mit Umsteigezeiten von 4 und 7 Minuten.
Und da behaupten die Leute, Fallschirmspringen sei aufregend. 🤡
Was die #Qualitätshochschule plante: „Elektronische Schlüssel für alle Türen erhöhen die Sicherheit auf dem Campus.“
Wie die Realität aussieht: Wegen eines Softwarefehlers komme ich aktuell nicht in mein Büro.
Heutiges Highlight des Göttinger Straßenverkehrs: Dame steigt vor einer roten Ampel vom E-Bike, wuchtet es umständlich auf den Gehweg, steigt wieder auf und quetscht sich an der engsten Stelle mit einem genervten „Darf ich mal vorbei!!“ zwischen mehreren Fußgängys durch.
Ich frage mich immer, tun diese Leute nur so oder sind die wirklich so komplett merkbefreit?

- Being a reviewer myself, I am highly aware of the vastly increasing number of submissions written with the aid of AI and lacking proper verification - and also of colleagues who do not cross-check citations when they review articles.
However, to me this is just another symptom of a well-known problem in academia that existed long before AI: Scientists take shortcuts because they perceive publishing as an annoying side effect - rather than an essential part - of research.
