    But Nate, this is akin to saying black people in Montgomery should not have boycotted busses because white people were already boycotting black schools. The fact that a tactic can be used for just or unjust purposes doesn’t mean you should never engage it.

    In fact, I am gay, and I'm just old enough (40) to remember when conservative groups urged boycotts of advertisers and networks who were seen as promoting LGBTQ or other "nontraditional" lifestyles. That strongly influences my views on this subject!

    It's important to acknowledge what is saying. He's willing to discard one of the few tactics that is creating consequences for the harmful rhetoric on the right. He's willing to allow that rhetoric to flourish because of some *imagined* threat to him.

    It’s academia, and we act like we’re trauma surgeons.

    Due to my grad school experience, when I die I want my body donated to Science. And by Science, of course, I mean the journal Science. I want my dead body delivered to their offices.

    This also means will have roughly 8 (!) hours per day more than her colleagues to spend on legislation, at hearings, reading, writing, doing press, meeting with constituents, etc. Her colleagues schedule is more like the following: /1

    Fun Fact: Our campaign has the highest rate small-donor funding of ANY House member in Congress! Being people-funded frees me to support policies that put people FIRST, and speak openly about closing lobbyist loopholes. Join and support our independence:

    Seems to ignore the fact that their concerns got a total and repeated ass-whupping in Nature and other venues (here's a short response form and I) )

    "2018 was the year when preprints were first brought to our attention". What planet have been living on? Preprints in the current sense have been around for literally decades (ArXiv et al since 1990s) and hardcopy working papers have existed since forever.

    <thread> I’m disappointed by the fixation that has developed over preprints... (1)

    Highly recommend this thread to see the dangers that headline-grabbing papers have on the way journals are judged. Being correct may not have generated as many citations as being wrong but headline-grabbing.

    So, how did I like "post-publication peer review"? IMO, the 6 month long process has done nothing useful, except provide a paywalled citation to the original paper. A paper that should have been fixed in peer review remains unchanged, and is lauded as a top paper of the year.

    Women astronomers have had lower success rates with proposals to use the Hubble Space Telescope. Until they finally tried blind reviewing (so reviewers didn’t know the identity of the proposers), and the discrepancy went away. H/t

    has, for the first time, conducted a completely blind review of telescope proposals- hooray!! The result - completely consistent success rates for men and women, in contrast to significant biases that they found in the past.
