New #introduction for 1/2 way through 2025!

I'm Seth, I'm a technologist, podcaster, digital marketer, curator, father, husband and so much more.

I'm the Admin/Mod of Pixey.org, a Pixelfed instance and I'm the curator of @podcasting, @techchannel, and @federatedsocialnews on Channel.org.

I'm very big on the decentralized Web. You can find everywhere else I'm at https://social.sethgoldstein.me.

Hello #FediScience, migrating from astrodon.social (about to close), I am joining you here (inspired by @wolfgangcramer), so it's time for a new #Introduction

I'm Alexandre Santerne (call me Alex), #astronomer working @LAM_Marseille & teaching at Aix-Marseille #University (France).

I'm expert in finding #NoPlanetB 😀 ( #planets around other #stars).

I want to work in a #fair, #inclusive, and #sustainable #research #environment, so I (try to) act accordingly. I'm a member of @labos1point5

I toot a lot about #Astronomy, #Astrophysics, #Space but also a lot about #ClimateChange and #Climate.

Since 2019, I completely boycott planes, and I travel by #train (long distance) and #bike (short distance) as much as I can.

My other interests include #photography (visit my Flickr gallery in my profile) #Astronomy#Space

Oh, in case you don't know where Aix-Marseille is (trick: in 🇫🇷 ), the image below (credit: #NASA / JPL-Caltech / Space Science Institute) is indicating where I am, as seen from #Saturn...

... and where you also are, together with 8B people as part of 2M species 😀

This rare image taken on July 19, 2013, by NASA's Cassini spacecraft has shows Saturn's rings and our planet Earth and its moon in the same frame. At the time, Cassini was 2013 from a distance of about 898.414 million miles (1.445858 billion kilometers) from Earth. It is only one footprint in a mosaic of 33 footprints covering the entire Saturn ring system (including Saturn itself) taken by Cassini's wide-angle camera.

Hey, hi, hello!

mx here - geek, nerd, jack of many trades (master of none, obviously). Art and design, programming, hacking, reverse engineering, music.

Here mostly for the type and lettering, and to get first-hand fediverse experience.

Attached is a quick digital sketch to commemorate my overdue "some time lurker, first time poster" moment :)

Good morning Fedi friends!

Please join me in giving a warm welcome to my interns Riyen (@patel.riyen) & Sam ( @samaaberg). They will be working with me through the end of June on videos promoting the Fediverse. This is their #introduction.

Sam & Riyen are two talented film students who are #NewHere: a mere 7 days ago they had no idea what the Fediverse was. I have the immense honor of introducing them to it.

We are filming this week! Send us good vibes 🎥✨ #EleFediVideos

A bookshelf and various items are visible in the background.

#introduction I am a lecturer in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Galway, Ireland.

I enjoy inventing (and teaching) methods for computational (bio)mechanics and computational design.

I am the developer of:
* GIBBON https://www.gibboncode.org/
* Comodo https://github.com/COMODO-research/Comodo.jl

I am an advocate for #openscience #opensource and a co-founder and editor for JOSS, the Journal of Open Source Software.

An animation showing examples of computational biomechanics research I have been involved in. Visualisations include finite element simulations for prosthetics design, mammography, and soft robotics.

First post on here… I come from the sigmoid server which was, ok but I didn’t see a lots of science conversations and most of the interesting post I saw came from here :).

Hoping to find some cool people and research on fediscience! Few words about me: I work in machine learning and I aim to improve the built environment in safety and sustainability :)

So glad to be joining social.coop. I study and teach state theories, revolutions, social movements, communes, and collectives.

But, for what matters here, I am seeking to learn new practices, approaches, and methods of living in the shadow of the increasingly repressive, centralising, and homogenising modern state.

Hello, here's my fediverse re- #introduction since I moved to #fediscience

I'm a computational biologist/bioinformatician, professor at UCLouvain in Brussels. I work with various types of omics data, with a special interest in #MassSpectrometry and #proteomics. I (co-)develop and maintain several #rstats and #Bioconductor packages. In addition to R, I use #emacs and #orgmode quite a bit.

Thanks for reading!
