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