A small rant about zombie ideas and the tendency to keep looking for modifications of study methods to avoid concluding that a null result is really null. http://deevybee.blogspot.com/2024/03/just-make-it-stop-when-will-we-say-that.html

🌅 Good morning.

New #research from Consumer Reports offers a rare look into the scope of Meta's online surveillance.

It goes way beyond what most may expect—Meta can know many of the websites you visit and even what you’re doing IRL.

We measure how much snails eat in a given time period 🐌🥬

First, cut out lettuce discs carefully, to standardized the amount of food to start.

Second, give these lettuce discs to snails, and wait like 20-24h.

Lastly, fish up the leftover lettuce to scan and measure the area.

It’s a nice measurement for their activity 🐌🍃

I wrote a bot that parses the current #Mastodon instances and assigns them to the respective #ASN (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASN).

Interesting is the concentration on a few top ASN. Here for example the 10 most frequent ASNs as Pie Chart (as of 11/25/2022).

❤️ Thanks to @TheKinrar for the nice API for receiving the current mastodon instances.

I’m doing a project featuring little-known women of science as a part of my studies as a lab technician.
I’ll be drawing some portraits and illustrating the research and discoveries of some interesting scientists✨

Let’s start!
