If you want to make code/data “available”, GitHub isn’t enough.

You must deposit at a DOI-issuing data repository @figshare & @ZENODO_org are both free & awesome; can be synced w/ a GitHub repo

Why GitHub not enough? 1/4
#OpenAccess #OpenData
GitHub is a place for things to be worked on, not for them to live forever.

- Links are fragile (username, repo name)
- Users can delete repos
- GitHub could make your code/data unavailable in the future.

DOI-issuing data repositories preserve your stuff for the future 2/4
Depositing on @KaggleDatasets isn’t good enough for #OpenAccess #OpenData either.

- No API for accessing files without an account
- Fragile URLs
- Kaggle Datasets is a commercial thing.

Do all three! GitHub repo, Kaggle Dataset and @figshare or @ZENODO_ORG 3/4
I’ve rarely seen the prominent voices in #rstats or CODE #reproducibility talk about DOI.

Are you hearing about DOI and data repositories for the first time here? 4/4

When I was a kid, nine or ten, I was smart, wiggly, and precocious, raised by a single working mom. She found all kinds of interesting things for me to read, because I love to read. One day she picked up a free magazine for me called ComputorEdge. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ComputorE…
She had just bought a new "computor" because she was young, recently widowed, and going to law school; she needed it for classes. We had an Apple II in my classroom at that time, but other than that, I hadn't been exposed to anything like this before. I was in 5th grade I think.
No, maybe 6th. Either way, it was the late 1980s. Anyway, this wasn't a cutting edge computer or even a new one. I think it was a 286. So I set about learning this new technology with zeal, being the kid I was. Then that article in ComputorEdge I read changed everything.

my five TDD premises stuff has been well-received over the months since i put it out, but one of them seems still very underplayed, even by many died-in-the-wool TDD'ers: the correlation premise.
the correlation premise says that the internal quality of our code correlates directly with our productivity. when the internal quality goes up, productivity goes up. when it goes down, productivity goes down.
all of the premises were formulated in part to undercut dangerous misunderstandings about what TDD is and why we do it, of course, and the correlation premise is that, too.

UCC had opportunity to comment on the #Data.Protection & Privacy Bill. The enactment of this law is long overdue. A comprehensive law on the collection & processing personal information gives effect to the right to Privacy envisaged under Article 27(2) of the Constitution
UCC welcome the protections offered by the Bill in terms of export of data, breach notification requirements, data subjects access rights, automated decision making, compensation and the right to be forgotten and provision for financial and penal sanctions for breach of the law.
Distinction between Data collectors & data controllers.
The Bill should however clarify & distinguish Data Collectors, from Data Processors & Data Controllers. Clause 2 is inconsistent with international good practice which provides for two broad categories of Data Controllers

THREAD:

After more than 6 months of watching people get scammed by the #QAnon phenomena, I'm going to make the below thread to explain to you exactly why it is an intelligence agency-backed psyop, what techniques are being used, and why you need to stop people falling for it.
1. I referred to #QAnon today as a 'Pied Piper' operation. What I meant by this, is that the operation exists to round up people that are otherwise dangerous to the Deep State (because they are genuinely opposed to it) usurp time & attention, & trick them into serving its aims.
2. To achieve this, the operation moves through three phases.

PHASE 1: ESTABLISH CREDIBILITY.

It does this by appearing to leak insider information to the #QAnon audience. Making them feel that they are getting access to information that they otherwise wouldn't be privy to

Special treat at #yownight with @daveathomas sharing his experience with using legacy transformation as an innovation opportunity.
Highlights to follow…
Some people’s code is legacy straight away if they write it in a way that no one understands it. #yownight
If you try to rewrite the whole legacy system in a new language you’ll join the club of hundreds of thousands of others that have thrown their company’s money away. Rewrites are not a happy story. #yownight

The pharmaceutical manufacturing industry has a lot of influence in Washington. At the same time, prices for four of the nation's top 10 drugs have increased more than 100 percent. #enough
Enough. 92% of Americans support allowing the federal government to negotiate prescription drug prices for seniors on Medicare Part D. We need to act on my bill (33 cosponsors so far!) to make it happen.
Enough. 72% of Americans support the purchase of prescription drugs – with the same dosages & safety standards – imported from Canada. It’s time for Congress to act on my bill with @SenJohnMcCain to allow safe, affordable prescription drugs from Canada.
