Wer behauptet, Menschen würden sich im Internet radikalisieren, liest zu selten gedruckte Zeitungen (hier der Sonntagsblick, Kolumne von Frank Meyer).

Heute auf der @BMBF Abschlusstagung der Förderlinie #Wissenstransfer stellen @justushenke.bsky.social + Olivia Laska Ergebnisse aus unserem Projekt WiKET vor. Zentral war die Frage, wie Bürokratie den Transfer beeinflusst. Bin auf die Diskussionen gespannt! #wiket #bmbf

Every damn day, another right-winger or an army of them explains why she made them do it; it's her fault, her being an individual woman or Democrats or.... Not sure what Ackman's getting at, but Brooks is in "they went too far in their antifascism so fascism is their fault" territory.
Of course, the left made it easy for them. The left really did purge conservatives from universities and other cultural power centers. The left really did valorize a “meritocratic” caste system that privileged the children of the affluent and screwed the working class. The left really did pontificate to their unenlightened moral inferiors on everything from gender to the environment. The left really did create a stifling orthodoxy that stamped out dissent. If you tell half the country that their voices don’t matter, then the voiceless are going to flip over the table. Bill Ackman @BillAckman I have no anger toward Dems. Just disappointment. I don’t think this was foreseeable. I assumed economic rationality would be paramount. My bad.

Hey, I am guest-editing an issue on student loans.

RE: collapse of Academic Twitter, we're extending the call for abstracts til March 31st.

If you have #Qualitative work on #studentloans, submit!

Requote and share widely.

Description: Despite the growing national conversation around student loan debt, there is a notable lack of qualitative research exploring its personal and emotional impacts on borrowers. Most studies focus on quantitative data, such as default rates, repayment trends, and economic effects, overlooking the nuanced experiences and perspectives of individuals grappling with debt. The lived realities of borrowers—how they manage the stress of repayment, navigate complex forgiveness programs, or make life decisions around their debt—remain underexplored. This gap in the literature presents an urgent need for qualitative studies that can provide deeper insights into the psychological, social, and financial burdens of student debt. We call for proposals that prioritize borrower narratives to better inform policy changes and humanize the debt crisis. Number of Inclusions: We are seeking up to eight (8) high-quality qualitative articles for inclusion in the special issue. We welcome submissions that utilize mixed or multiple methods, but the qualitative component must be equally emphasized or more prominent. Our goal is to strengthen the representation of qualitative research in the literature. Timeline: Calls for proposal will occur in October 2024 and will be open until March 31st, 2025. Proposals will be up to 700 words and should include: introduction, short lit review/study purpose, methods, and if applicable initial findings. Proposal decisions are expected to occur in July 2025. For accepted proposals, full papers will be due August 2025 and will be subjected to peer-review. We expect peer-review to last no longer than 60 days (November 2025) and will provide authors another 30 days (December 2025 - January 2026) to make revisions. Once all final revisions are completed the special issue will go to press.

Check out this brilliant thread/blutorial from @altmetric.com on the history - and future - of @wikipedia.org

I believe that all generally useful information should be free. By "free" I am not referring to price, but rather to the freedom to copy the information and to adapt it to one's own uses ...

Warum ist diese oft geäußerte Idee, Wissenschaftler*innen, die in den USA ihre Stellen verlieren, könnten ja zu uns kommen, so unsinnig? Nicht nur wegen der Prekärität unserer Strukturen ( #IchBinHanna) und weil es schlicht nicht geht (viele können halt nicht mal schnell den Kontinent wechseln). 1/5

Ever since the Turing test, the idea of having a dialogue with a machine to probe its cognitive abilities (‘thought’) has been inextricably associated with the field of AI.
