In writing research papers, I often have to anonymize information and if it is accepted, I have to de-anonymize it. To make this easier in LaTeX, I created a command:

%\newcommand{\anonymize}[2]{#1} % Shows original version
\newcommand{\anonymize}[2]{\emph{#2}} % Shows anonymous version

To use, it is simple:

\anonymize{Cleveland}{Some City}

If accepted, I just swap the comments. I'm sure there's a better way to do this, but this has been really helpful for me so far.

This is the #tech that #academia and #HigherEd, incl. #librarians who should know better, are rushing to embrace. That includes the one twatwaffle I read yesterday (but did not link) who was basically "if you are not into AI, fuck you, I got no time for you."

Sure, kid, whatever.

I came across this awesome website with (mostly) free to use silhouette images of different organisms - great for scientific publications and presentations! I really appreciate people making/uploading these images for others to use - will probably be using these on graphs in the future. The bee species available are a bit lacking, though.
