Our latest "how-to with @CodeAster" video shows how to define a composite shell and how to extract generalized forces and stresses at a given layer. Bonus: We use an example with a Cross Laminated #Timber Panel (#CLT) for all timber engineers out there! youtu.be/52INSrQ48iQ

We are continuing with the suspension of new JOSS submissions until 4th May to provide relief to authors, editors, and reviewers dealing with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Thanks for your understanding and please stay safe ❤️#JOSS_theOJ

Absolutely shocked to hear about @Protohedgehog's fatal accident today. A true #openscience champion and a really nice person. Here is his keynote talk at the 2018 @DARIAHeu event in Paris. #RIP Jon, and thanks for everything. youtube.com/watch?v=UEEcwRUg…

FreeCAD is participating in Google Summer of Code again this year! I'm looking for a motivated student looking to contribute to almost any area of FreeCAD.

The question is not whether we will move to a system where data and code will be expected to be made available by default, but when the journals you submit to will start expecting this from you. Train yourself in computational reproducibility. RMarkdown is a great place to start.

Don't want to manually add DOIs to your references? Simply copy-paste your reference list in this tool and all (most) DOIs will be automatically added. doi.crossref.org/simpleTextQ… Thanks for pointing me to this @esthermaassen

Some science communication tips in this great piece. What can scientists learn from stand-up comedy? (And no, you do not need to be funny). sciencemag.org/careers/2019/…
