A Strange Form of ORCID-Based … Advertising? Networking? Sp_mming?

Posted on December 5, 2024 by Michael Froomkin

My first thought was that this was a mistake.

My second thought was that this was an attempt to get me to read someone’s papers.

On the gripping hand, having looked at the user’s ORCID record, which is for a Czech masters in economics who did some tutoring several years ago and claims ties to the United Kingdom, Malaysia, Solomon Islands, Georgia, and Armenia but doesn’t seem to publish….I have no idea.

Autoposting to Bluesky (continued)

Posted on December 2, 2024 by Michael Froomkin

I’m still looking for a good tool to autopost to Bluesky. The Atproto Share plugin sends a link, but no more unless supplemented manually…

(I tried a manual supplement for this post)

No Joke

Posted on December 2, 2024 by Michael Froomkin

There was a saying (which I first encountered 30+ years ago in the UK) that, “Everyone talks about the weather, but no one does anything about it.”

That silly joke has a much more ominous cast in light of global warming.

On a less grim note, it’s so cool here today I not only could open the windows but I put on a sweater! This is quite rare in South Florida.

On a technical note, this will be my first attempt to auto-post to Bluesky….

I’m on Bluesky

Posted on November 25, 2024 by Michael Froomkin

Like all the good lemmings, I’ve opened a Bluesky account for myself, and also one for Jotwell.

It already feels like a firehose…if a somewhat friendly one.

Bear with me while I get acclimatized and learn how to auto-post from WordPress.

David’s First TV Interview

Posted on November 15, 2024 by Michael Froomkin

My son the law professor made his TV interview debut yesterday.

I’m naturally biased, but I think he’s good at this.

Incidentally, the weird background is somewhere at a conference he was attending.
