"The money that #Stockholm University saves at the cancelled agreement with large science publisher #Elsevier will be used to publish research in full Open Access journals.

Feynman learning strategy in THREE points:

1. Continually ask "Why?"

2. When you learn something, learn it to where you can explain it to a child. https://quitter.es/attachment/1783843

3. Instead of arbitrarily memorizing things, look for the explanation that makes it obvious.

This is being proposed in the EU. #Article13

Five years ago to the day, the #PRISM program was made public. One of the main revelations in the summer of #Snowden, making very clear which companies we all should avoid.

However, let's not forget that Snowden had already tried to leak the information many months earlier. The NSA scandal almost didn't happen because Greenwald was reluctant to use PGP and didn't take Snowden seriously in the beginning. #TrueStory
