In my day job I help staff and students at Victoria University of Wellington get access to research publications and materials. If you need help or have questions, please reach out. I'm happy to help using informal as well as formal channels.

Think: https://login.helicon.vuw.ac.nz/ https://ojs.victoria.ac.nz/ https://openaccess.wgtn.ac.nz/

This is your periodic reminder that when you see a fantastic academic article, linking directly to the article maximizes the benefit to the researchers.

Link the landing page: http://www.journal.mai.ac.nz/content/why-isn%E2%80%99t-my-professor-pasifika-snapshot-academic-workforce-new-zealand-universities

or link the DOI: https://www.doi.org/10.20507/MAIJournal.2019.8.2.9

or link the PDF: http://journal.mai.ac.nz/sites/default/files/MAIJrnl_8_2_Naepi_FINAL_0.pdf

Can someone recommend a reasonable music streaming platform?

I'm not particularly fussy, just want random stuff to stream at work without the tracking and stuff

@aurynn if you're looking for a good XML editor, https://www.oxygenxml.com/ is meant to be really good. Lots of people in the TEI community love it.

Also if you're serious about learning XSLT, I'm happy to talk about it, and I've tutored programming languages and 2nd and 3rd year, so I can explain stuff to people.

So @CrossrefOrg@twitter.com knows about @ORCID_Org@twitter.com
identifiers, but _really_ doesn't like you searching for them: https://search.crossref.org/?q=http%3A%2F%2Forcid.org%2F0000-0003-1809-1062 used the non-standard form of https://search.crossref.org/?q=0000-0003-1809-1062

This is your regular reminder that public demonstrations are the #1 method of forcing software and configuration bugs to show themselves.

Demo your stuff regularly to diverse groups.

Some of the content from said website:

https://openaccess.wgtn.ac.nz/articles/journal_contribution/Cultural_Criminology_and_Gender_Consciousness_Moving_Feminist_Theory_From_Margin_to_Center/12693101

Is there an alternative metrics system that covers mastodon?

So my employer has a new website at https://openaccess.wgtn.ac.nz/ that folks who are interested in such things may find interesting.

I may be a good person to (unofficially) ask questions of about said website.

Sorry about that fire drill folks; it was as much a surprise to us wardens as it was to you.

Doubly sorry about being shouty getting you all out of the designated paths for fire engines to bowl bystanders; I was so flustered that I'd just dropped and cracked my phone.

Was about to mention rule 34 in a discussion, but googling it recalls some context that I had forgotten (or I didn't notice at the time).

I'm just going to quietly move on and stop talking about rule 34.

If you're still using rule 34 for anything, you need to seriously think about retiring it.

Anyone finding new weird links to http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/exlibris/aleph/... in their very-old and unedited

awk ' BEGIN { FS = "" }
/[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]-[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9X]/
{
chksum = $1 * 8 + $2 * 7 + $3 * 6 + $4 * 5 + $6 * 4 + $7 * 3 + $8 * 2;
chk = (11 - (chksum % 11));
if (chk==11) {chk=0};
if (chk==10) {chk="X"};
if (chk==$9) {print ;}
} '

Pretty sure I don't want a world where https://www.criticalarc.com/ finds clients...

Lots of folks* standing around the National stand in National T-shirts at student clubs day.

* young, white male folks, most of whom I don't trust to drive my car, let alone run the country.
