DeSci and trad sci aren't at odds Sean Manion

Scientia Machina is up! "What is the brain that it can understand science? What is science that it can understand the brain?"

Welcome to Terminus:PGH – a free event for scientists & science supporters! Talks on disruption, skills & jobs, science startups + networking Join us to connect, learn & build the future of science. bit.ly/3YwGorm #TerminusPGH #SciComm #desci #science #pittsburgh

I've been having fun posting tidbits from the late 80s/early 90s cyberpunk magazine Mondo2000 today. This short 2-page story deserves a closer look. Not only is this the earlier use of "cypherpunk" (as opposed to cyberpunk) that I've found, but it also predicts Bitcoin in 1992:

NOTICE: Call for Papers - DeSAI 2025 (Pittsburgh PA, 1-2 Oct) PraxSci is delighted to be hosting the first annual Decentralized Science (DeSci) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) symposium this fall in the Pittsburgh Union Trust Building. DeSci + AI for the future of science!

Decentralized Autonomous Publication (DAP) "If you think you can fly, try jumping out of the first-floor window first, not the roof." - Bill Hicks The science paper is the MVP for science (aka TradSci), it might work for DeSci to grow from the MVP approach as well.

The next iteration of Terminus is coming. We have our next Pittsburgh meetup happening on the 27th of June at Ascender. Come visit to talk about DeSci, AI, and help save science. eventbrite.com/e/terminuspgh-… #lfss #letssavescience #terminuspgh

New PraxSci website is up as our open stealth mode continues. #TradSci + #DeSci = #PraxSci

🚨 AMA: The DeSci Roundtable with Praxis Science 📢 Set your reminders: x.com/i/spaces/1zqKV… Join us this Friday for an exciting X Space featuring: ✅ Gianluca De Novi, Ph.D. - Founder, Circular Protocol ✅ Kris Rockwell - Co-Founder, PraxSci ✅ Sean Manion - CEO, PraxSci

Hey DeSci, crawl before you fly and disintermediate the PIs first. Why do scientists need an overlord for every project and paper?

Hey DeSci - why recreate science wheels when you can build on what's already rolling? PraxSci is pleased to join the INCF industry advisory council. INCF is focused on "a collaborative network for open, FAIR, and citable neuroscience." TradSci + DeSci = PraxSci!

Hey DeSci - Kris Rockwell and I have been getting some questions (and some dirty looks) since we announced that our initial PraxSci DAO - barracuDAO - is a non-monetary, governance token only DAO. It's weird! How are you gonna pump (and dump) it!?! Let me explain. 🧵

Hey DeSci - there's a lesson here. In science, like cooking, speed is not always your friend. Quality first.

I said I’d start sharing DeSci projects reviews I’ve been doing for the next edition of my “Blockchain for Medical Research” book (March 2000) when I hit 500 followers. Getting close. Follow and suggest projects you would like to see reviewed. 🧵(1 of 6)
