Know anyone doing important Open Source work in Europe? Nominate them for the 3rd European Open Source Awards before 1 November. Not sure they fit a category? Nominate them anyway, we’d rather hear about them than miss them. #OpenSource 👉 awards.europeanopensource.academy/nomination-pro…

Note the use of Open Science Hardware in this project, the Dustbox - citizensense.net/kits/dustbox-h…
I’m so happy to finally publish this work! It’s been too-long in coming, but I think the result is a solid set of questions and directions for the OScH community to use as guidance for moving the field forward.
🔊Our HEROES workshop report is here! We brought 45 participants together in Geneva to explore how to make #OpenScienceHardware sustainable and part of everyday research. 🔎 What will it take? Read our blog to explore the key findings: opensciencehardware.org/2026/10/oshf...
I’m so excited to announce a project we’ve been working on behind the scenes for some time. If you have materials that you think belong here, please do let us know! opensciencehardware.org/library-contri…
🚀 We’re excited to launch the #OpenScienceHardware Foundation (OSHF) Library, a curated hub for open scientific instruments resources! Explore materials tailored to researchers, policymakers, funders, community organizations & help us grow the collection. opensciencehardware.org/2026/10/anno...
I’m sorry I won’t be able to attend this, but it’s going to be a great event!
One week to go! 🇳🇵 Next Sunday, the GOSH community gathers in Kathmandu for #GOSH2026 - marking 10 years of GOSH and 10 years since our first Global Gathering! Joining us? Hooray! Start planning the sessions you want to attend by checking out the program: openhardware.science/2026/08/17/g...

And when I say we are in a quiet constitutional crisis, this is what I mean: Congress directs National Science Foundation to send funds for research ins social, behaviorism and economic sciences; the Agency refuses to release at all, and then recommends eliminating the division.
Finally, this has gone a bit under the radar, so I want to highlight it: The social, behavioral and economic sciences directorate (SBE) has simply ceased to deliver grants to many of its subareas. Any topic not specifically OK'd by the Trump administration is receiving zero new awards.

Good morning. Today is the LAST DAY to comment on the proposed OMB rule that will, honestly, destroy science in the US. And it will do FAR MORE THAN THAT. www.theverge.com/science/9576...

The @kirkhamilton.com podcast "Strong Songs" has a really good episode that breaks down "Total Eclipse of the Heart" in terms of its composition, production, musical structure... and the fun fact that it was originally intended for a musical about *vampires*. strongsongspodcast.com/blogs/episod...

I’m so pleased that OSHF can help support open science and open research around the world. Really looking forward to working with EOSA and our fellow partners! #OpenSource #EuropeanOpenSourceAcademy #OpenSourceHardware #EUPolicy #OSHF
We’re honored to be among the founding Knowledge Partners for the European Open Source Academy! opensciencehardware.org/2026/07/oshf-p…
A little bit of local excitement for you - my local university (Sewanee) has a Corpse Flower that’s about to bloom, could be any day now. Livestream here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0bzkp…

I care because I’m a nostalgic fool who connected with these characters, & remain frustrated that they’re untended when there is still plenty of reason to do so. Was THE MUPPET SHOW perfect? No. Nothing is. But when it hit that sweet spot, it operated on a full spectrum of emotion.
I am so thrilled to be bringing someone new to the OSHF team. Very excited to hire a Program Manager, and if you think it should be you, take a look and apply!
OSHF is hiring! We are looking for an amazing Program Manager to join our team. Details can be found at the link below, priority given to applications received by May 30th. Feel free to reach out with questions here, or via the email on the application. opensciencehardware.org/2026/05/oshf-s…

This is *so* important and it's been a persistent issue since the early days of learning technology adoption. Short term contracts and project funding have a significant impact on the longevity and sustainability of digital resources. It's a huge waste of both funding and invaluable expertise.
Not to mention how many digital projects are being initially created and maintained by folks on short term contracts. I literally just posed this question yesterday at work - who will take on the digital platform I’m building when my contract is up next March?
It’s not every day that the largest technology company in the world changes CEOs. Even though this had been strongly rumored for awhile, Tim Cook stepping down in September and John Ternus taking over as Apple CEO is quite a big deal for the future of the company. www.apple.com/newsroom/2026/…
