Hi all! I'm looking for people to try out my new collaborative writing platform. Think: Overleaf or GDocs for Mkdown LaTeX HTML Typst Quarto Free, open source, and full-featured. Many editors, chat, comments, track changes, history, AI, mobile, templates, etc Would ❤️ any feedback! librepaper.org

Very excitred about the publication of this article led by Allison Curley demonstrating that (dual) clumped isotope measurements record accurate temperatures in bivalve shells despite isotopic differences between shell layers. www.geochemicalperspectivesletters.org/article2632/

Just out in #GPLetters by Curley et al. “Mean annual sea surface temperature can be reconstructed within 2-degrees from a variety of clams, even if seawater & body fluids might have different bulk composition”. Read more here: buff.ly/nlZ4tYb #OpenAccess @nielsjdewinter

Writing by Hand is Good for your Brain - Here's how to do it (Neal Stephenson, Jul 21, 2026) buff.ly/8RaFc3E <- In which we learn that he's left-handed. I _told_ you lefties can use fountain pens fine. Stop whinging. P.S. my take: this is really about AI

buff.lyWriting by Hand is Good for your Brain - Here's how to do itBecause I am known to write using a fountain pen on paper, a number of people have pointed me to this post and its underlying research. I won’t rehash what is said in those sources, but the gist of…

Academic conferences should return to simple PDF and printed programs. The apps and conference management systems are very annoying and work very badly. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

"The project isn't the deliverable. The project is the vehicle. The deliverable is the scientist that comes out the other end." I encourage grad student advisors (and grad students) to read this. All the pithy hot takes miss the point, this is a breath of fresh air. ergosphere.blog/posts/the-ma...

Unbelievable experience with the journal Palaeo3. Our manuscript was rejected because… they couldn’t find a second reviewer, and it had been in their system “too long” (7 weeks), according to the editor. In other words, just to preserve their review-speed metrics, they rejected our submission.
