European science funders ban grantees from publishing in paywalled journals

Frustrated with the slow transition toward open access (OA) in scientific publishing, 11 national funding organizations in Europe turned up the pressure today. As of 2020, the group, which jointly spends about €7.6 billion on research annually, will require every paper it funds to be freely available from the moment of publication. In a statement, the group said it will no longer allow the 6- or 12-month delays that many subscription journals now require before a paper is made OA, and it won't allow publication in so-called hybrid journals, which charge subscriptions but also make individual papers OA for an extra fee.

There is no real documentation to back them up but the President does appear to be enroute to a major triumph combining the recovery of at least $15 trillion; control of the Federal Reserve; a gold-backed dollar; and $1.5 trillion to be spent from the bottom up across thousands of individuals whose simple marching orders are “create new jobs with benefits, and do new construction”(including creative destruction). Half our history and half our science are outright fabrications — in that context, this is a good opportunity to consider alternative explanations of how the 1% hosed the 99%, and what the 99% can do about it.

Google: Online to Brick and Mortar Cross Correlation

Our research suggests that Amazon may have a slight edge in the cross correlation of user data. Google, whether pulling a me too or simply going its own way, has decided to link online and brick and mortar data.

The effort was revealed in “Google and MasterCard Cut a Secret Ad Deal to Track Retail Sales.” Amazon has access to some data which makes it possible for those with appropriate system access to perform analyses of Amazon customers’ buying behavior.
