Job market alert!

Are you hiring a post-doc? You absolutely must consider the brilliant @ashleykrause.bsky.social

I was lucky enough to write a paper with Ashley on a topic I knew oh so little about and learned a TON.

Why is there not a rating system for social media platforms? Like for video games?

Rated G - heavily moderated. ID and age verification required
Rated T - mildly moderated. ID and age verification required
Rated M - no moderation or verification (hint - this is all social media now, right?)
