65 people have already joined me and I just wrote up why citation networks are so important: https://www.change.org/p/asking-the-american-chemical-society-to-join-the-initiative-for-open-citations/u/23636386 #acs2ioc

Petition: "Join me in encouraging the ACS to join the Initiative for Open Citations" http://chem-bla-ics.blogspot.com/2018/11/join-me-in-encouraging-acs-to-join.html Or go directly here to sign: https://www.change.org/p/the-american-chemical-society-to-join-the-initiative-for-open-citations

Looking forward to the BioHackathon next week

I added two new books to my @inventaire https://inventaire.io/inventory/egonw

a growing number of scholars are linked to affiliations in #wikidata and with the ORCID and #icanhazwikidata more and more articles are linked to universities... here we see the number of authors with a certain number of articles for Maastricht University: https://query.wikidata.org/embed.html#%23defaultView%3AScatterChart%0ASELECT%20%3FarticleCount%20(COUNT(%3Fresearcher)%20AS%20%3FresearcherCount)%20(GROUP_CONCAT(%3Forcid)%20AS%20%3Forcids)%20WITH%20%7B%0A%20%20SELECT%20%3Fresearcher%20%3Forcid%20(COUNT(%3Farticle)%20AS%20%3FarticleCount)%20WHERE%20%7B%0A%20%20%20%20%3Fresearcher%20wdt%3AP1416%2Fwdt%3AP361*%20wd%3AQ1137652%20%3B%0A%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20wdt%3AP496%20%3Forcid%20.%0A%20%20%20%20OPTIONAL%20%7B%20%3Farticle%20wdt%3AP50%20%3Fresearcher%20.%20%7D%0A%20%20%7D%20GROUP%20BY%20%3Fresearcher%20%3Forcid%0A%20%20%20%20ORDER%20BY%20DESC(%3FarticleCount)%0A%7D%20AS%20%25DATA%20%7B%0A%20%20INCLUDE%20%25DATA%0A%7D%20GROUP%20BY%20%3FarticleCount%0A

just noticed that the BibTeX export of Zotero has more issues than just the inconvenient lack of multiline formatting ... "et al" in the list of authors??? ::(:

"This week people in our community confronted me about my lifetime of
not understanding emotions. My flippant attacks in emails have been
both unprofessional and uncalled for. Especially at times when I made
it personal. In my quest for a better patch, this made sense to me.
I know now this was not OK and I am truly sorry."

- a microSD card weighs somewhere around 0.4g
- the highest capacity microSD that's easily available is 256GB
- a trebuchet can throw a 90kg projectile over 300m

90kg worth of microSD cards is 225,000 of them

Therefore a trebuchet can throw 57.6PB of data over 300m

This would have the highest throughput of any telecommunications network ever created

and the fixing just continues :)

Hey, I might even manage that long awaited version 5 of the ontology :)

blah... was struggling with the ENM ontology for too long this morning... semanticscience.org was down... does not happen often, but turned on GitHub Pages now, and use that for ontology IRIs and for owl:import's...

really happy to sit down with Nina today and hack on their AMBIT software... we used this in the eNanoMapper project, and will be using it in NanoCommons...

Practically, we're working on loading NanoWiki 5 (see Figshare), maybe some nanomedicine data, some ontology work (see https://github.com/enanomapper/ontologies/issues), and after lunch on (bio)schemas.org annotation
