We can do without them: how the UG is cutting ties with Big Tech
By 2030, the university aims to be digitally independent. And that’s not a pipe dream, say proponents of the plan.

Tuesday, I joined about 7,500 colleagues in Amsterdam to strike and protest against the budget cuts in higher education.
With a new coalition taking shape, it’s worrying how little attention education gets. Cutting education budgets is so short-sighted! #WOinActie

Dit demissionair kabinet voert ingrijpende onderwijsbezuinigingen door, zonder benodigd mandaat. Dat moet stoppen, zeggen Rens Bod, Remco Breuker en Ingrid Robeyns.

Grant writing: done (for now).
Back to grading and reviews, which—for now—feel oddly manageable.
I’ll enjoy the illusion while it lasts.

Moderated the Sustainable Marketing event last Wednesday, organized by our study association Marug.
Speakers from Circolide @thomasfreese.bsky.social, Hortus Botanicus Haren, and FIND shared perspectives from ⚛️ green chemistry, 🎓 environmental education, and ♻️ second-hand retail respectively.

Interesting piece (in Dutch) on the diffusion of Signal in the northern part of the Netherlands. Great teaching material for my lectures on diffusion models and social contagion!

This well-designed (in many ways) online course of @carlbergstrom.com and @jevinwest.bsky.social on LLMs is highly recommended! To the point, critical, and full of examples. Can't wait until all videos are available!
Modern-Day Oracles or Bullshit Machines?

Jevin West (@jevinwest.bsky.social) and I have spent the last eight months developing the course on large language models (LLMs) that we think every college freshman needs to take.

Print this out and put it on your pinboard! Most compact and at the same time clear and intuitive figure on possible associations between predictors and outcome (or variables).

This is a good analysis explaining why the scientic migration to bluesky worked when it failed to take hold with mastadon, threads, or linkedin.

The key is network effects: Moving an entire community is hard and people are reluctant to leaveit www.science.org/content/arti...

Dit monsterverbond is nu verantwoordelijk voor een monsterbezuiniging.

CDA, CU, SGP, JA21 maken zich gedoogpartner van dit PVV-kabinet en brengen daarmee grote schade aan, aan ons onderwijs en onze toekomst.

Collega’s, doe dit niet.

Again protesting against the proposed budget cuts. This time we gathered on our @unigroningen.bsky.social campus and blew our whistles for a full minute. Our message to the government was clear: Doe het niet (Don't do it)! #doehetniet @woinactie.bsky.social
