31 July, a dark day in German history. On this day in 1932, the Nazi party won the Reichstag elections, gaining 37.3 % and 230 seats. The election campaign was the most violent one in modern German history to date.

Was gerade in UK an den Universitäten passiert (aktuell: Exeter) fasst mein Kollege @jheathershaw.bsky.social hier in einem Thread zusammen. Solidarität aus Deutschland!!

My university is cutting almost a 1/4 of academics in humanities and the social sciences. Despite what managers say, it's not about the money. They are using a national crisis born of 15 yrs of govt neglect as a pretext to make ideological moves against HASS fields. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Academic departments deserve to be saved, supported, resourced, allowed to grow even if they're not "best in the country," "first in the REF," "top-ranked," "at a Russell Group uni," or whatever other austerity-brained nonsense senior managers have been using to flimflam you out of solidarity

Makerfield result is extraordinary: A swing back to governing party in a by-election is exceptional. Winning absolute majority of the vote in a seat with Reform friendly demographics is exceptional. Doing both on an increased turnout when your party is polling under 20% is truly exceptional

1. How common is LLM use in scientific publishing, and how does it vary across field, publisher, journal prestige, author demographics etc.? @kylesiler.bsky.social has new paper in PNAS that addresses this question on a massive scale: 7.3 million papers from Elsevier, PLOS, MDPI, and Frontiers.

This is an enormously important point. The scope and values of any scholarly field are self-defined by those who practice it. If we grant corporate interests the legitimacy to establish these definitions, it is obvious that they will define a field such that their tools surpass human ingenuity.
