They're releasing macOS a whole month earlier than usual, with fewer beta releases than usual. I believe this is the first time they will have released macOS and iOS on the same date.

When I got a job in academia and was faced with creating my first conference poster, I was amazed to discover PowerPoint is the customary software for creating them. It does a pretty good job, too.

This happens a lot in PDX and it makes me furious. It's like putting a hit out on the pedestrian crossing the street. I would like to see how the people honking their horns would like it if someone called for their death.

More than one. Here's two sources indicating at least four more lawyers out there using fake ChatGPT case citations.

This is a good basic overview, goes beyond tagging/indexing, was the textbook in LIS501 Information Organization and Access at UIUC-GSLIS (now the iSchool at Illinois) in 2006:

My favorite intro to semantic modeling with RDF/OWL/SPARQL:

Topic Maps are dead but i still have a soft spot for them:

I also recommend Heather Hedden, linked in jrockhind's post.

No, it's old, and an outdated mindset. Since 2004 Wikipedia has greatly matured and most educators have relaxed their stance on it. I'm a librarian and my take on Wikipedia is that it's a great starting point but you'd never want to cite it directly.

Lots of criticism collated at the article's PubPeer page:

The PubPeer browser extension is worthwhile: https://pubpeer.com/static/extensions

Evolution doesn't necessarily imply "new species" (species is actually a pretty vague term) and dictionary definitions are limited.

Try this resource instead: https://evolution.berkeley.edu/evolibrary/article/evo_01

There's a bunch of Electronic Lab Notebook platforms out there, someone already replied to you mentioning OSF. Others include Benchling and LabArchives. This Nature article is a good starting point, it has links to several universities' ELN guides. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-018-05895-3
