Important for academic posters here!

Also, Bluesky doesn't suppress posts with links.

Much better than the 'other place'/
One of the reason I prefer Bluesky to X (as well as Threads/Facebook/LinkedIN) is simply because my newsfeed isn't controlled by an engagement-driven algorithm

This reduces the incentives for gaming the algorithm with clickbait, conflict entreprenuers, etc. www.science.org/content/arti...

Speed limit reductions on our Thursday agenda.✅

This is for arterials and collectors. We are already on track to reduce speed limits on local streets in 2025.

Why? Safety. Slow streets are safer streets.

(Yes we are also doing engineering.)

Good news, Altmetric has now started watching BlueSky for mentions of publications. And by the way, provides an easy comparison between this and the old site for a recent preprint of mine which I posted simultaneousl at both. Numbers speak by themselves !
