I’m going to call it out… just stop putting lots of text one your slides. You know its bad, I know its bad, everyone knows its bad… so can we just not?

Question for current/recently completed PhD students, esp in Aust & ANZ: where did you find out about the PhD program you enrolled in?
I've got a @digitalchild scholarship to advertise in the next month, but where will be most visible to candidates?
‼️ Great news, #YoMos! Keynotes are confirmed and Applications for our #YoMos2025 Workshop in Ilmenau are NOW OPEN until the 15th of March. This is a great (and affordable) opportunity for PhD- master- and bachelor students interested in ecological modelling!
We are especially happy that we can offer a discounted participation fee for non-funded students this year 🦊

I am going to be adding a variation on a "warrant canary" (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warrant_…) to the syllabus for any classes that I teach. For example:
"I have _not_ been directed by the university, government, or any other organization to add, alter, or remove any portion of this course. Watch closely for if this notice is ever removed."
If/when institutions try to control what we teach, they may try to prevent sharing details of the ratfuckery that's happening

method of indirect notification of a subpoena, informing users that there has not been a secret subpoena as of a particular date; if the canary is not updated/removed, users are to assume that the host has been served with such a subpoena
