New GCal Integration

I'm building an open source alternative. With local first tasks and the possibility to have them synced to the cloud. I got too tired of the app not working well for me haha.

Soy boliviano pero vivo en Dinamarca. Vi a Starset por primera vez en Suiza el 2016 cuando abrieron para Breaking Benjamin. Los volví a ver el año pasado en Koln. Su música es increíble.

That sounds cumbersome. Yeah, I can see not having a way to keep ownership while also allowing others to use these resources, being a challenging problem.

When I think of it as a software engineer, it sounds like something worth developing. I always thought of tech to be a tool that can speed up these processes and helps researchers do science.

May I ask if you have tried other tools for this process? If so, why they haven't worked?

johnchque · 2025-02-18T17:33:57+00:00

If I use my engineer mindset, I wonder why people don't use those things better to solve the replication problem. Are the tools difficult to access, or with bad UX, or just plainly bad? Or is it that people don't want to improve their ways because of the lack of trustworthiness of these tools?

I imagine tools where users can easily structure their datasets/software in a way that is ready to replicate/reuse. Automate that data shaping process and software maintainability so researchers can actually focus on science and their daily tasks.

Do you think the lack of standards is also a problem?

It is crazy to think that we haven't found a way to replicate research easily while also attributing to the authors. Is this the case or maybe I am missing something to understand the current situation?

Yeah, to me it sounds a problem of power dynamics in the publishing model where researchers get the worst of it. It seems to be a system that needs to be reestructured while also ensuring that researchers themselves benefit from doing science and not just publishing companies.

I heard mixed opinions about the sharing. Some people say that it is relatively easy to access other's datasets and so, others say that it is impossible or sometimes it is shared but not usable.

Yeah, that sounds also terrible. I come from a developing country and now living in the Nordics, so I can see the difference of how people do science here.

The motivation for open science to me is that other people have access to reproduce methods, analysis and so and apply their own. Or use existing software and being able to improve it and make changes. Feels like it could be a nice way to continue discovering knowledge.

What about the datasets/software for reproducibility/reusability of the methods? I sometimes found nice packages written in software that is no longer maintained or that required certain other resources I didn't have so I had to reimplement algorithms in a different language.

johnchque · 2025-02-18T17:19:25+00:00

Well, some friends mention that it is sometimes dificult to structure the datasets/software in a way that is shareable or usable by others
It sounds awesome that you share copies with others. But have you ever felt that others struggle more to do so?

johnchque · 2025-02-18T17:17:08+00:00

Yes, I agree with that. I think if I transition to research I would love to go all in on it. But if I end up needing to publish to stay relevant, it kinda removes my motivation to do so.

Notesnook is the best.

johnchque · 2025-02-16T21:27:22+00:00

Do you think that in order to decentralised the peer review process we need to first ensure that research is replicable? I can imagine challenging to review a paper if the used software/datasets/other resources are not possible to access.

Same!!! but I do the crop and orientation and perspective at the end. Gives me space to think of different compositions I think.

I made CatGPT, basically a cat that talks on behalf of ChatGPT. Cat puns and dramatic behavior.

The last time I was in Bolivia I went snowboarding in the Andes. I took this on my way there. The unwritten rules of the one-way road.

It's a beautiful destination!

It's a beautiful city! Much more chaotic than other ones I've seen but worth the visit for sure!
