I mean you would be surprised because they’re really hard to see.

It's true. There was no gambling on baseball games before it was legalized.

The beauty of the story of the discovery of DNA is that it had a happy ending. Franklin got what really matters - a first author @Nature paper.

@arseblog.com on a scale of 1 to 10 how Spursy a game was that?

Ho Ho Ho

Why do MLB managers keep making this exact mistake? A mistake everyone knows they’re making in real time. That was the spot for Munoz. Insane that he wasn’t hot.

I'm sure @elmcitytree.blacksky.app means well.

Try to use it.

Finally, someone has solved a real problem with AI! No more having to take a paper in the format for a journal that rejected you, and reformat it for a new journal. Well done!! formatmypaper.com

It’s because people lack any ability to conceive of a world without meat - even the people who study why it’s bad.

@arseblog.com EDDIE!!!!!

"Loyalty Purge" is a good name for a Kegger.

Technically correct, but proper way to say that is that AAAS and Cell Press publishing policies are incompatible with the open research sharing policies of HHMI.

I agree he can't bring on subs in the first half and that his subs were right after that. But I still think he starts a too stylistically inflexible side - I would prefer starting with a side that can adjust better in the course of play, which is IMO Arteta's big weakness.

@gunnerblog.bsky.social #arsecastextra curious what you think of the theory that Arteta's problem isn't that he's too cautious, it's that he overcommits in lineup selection to a specific theory of how the game will go and as a result we aren't in a good position to adjust when things go wrong

This game was a perfect example. That was the right lineup to control the game early, frustrate City, maybe hit them with a set piece or Madueke, and then hit them with a more attack oriented lineup when they have to open up to chase the game. But when the opposite happened, we wasted the 1st half.

Arteta's critics are right that he overthinks things, but wrong about HOW he overthinks things. He's not cowardly. Rather he imagines the game going one way and sets the perfect lineup to accomplish that, but he overcommits, and when things don't go to plan, we're inflexible and can't adjust.

First they came for the Immigrants.
And I wrote a memo.
Then they came for trans people.
And I wrote a memo.
Then they came for the comedians.
And I wrote a memo.
Then they came for me.
And there was no one to write a memo for me.

We're in this shit because people have been saying "i don't think this is the time" for 30 years....

@mbeisen.bsky.social and I have already been operating without journal proxies throughout our careers and, tbh, every aspect of it is better. Both the experience of doing science and the potential outcomes for science.

Thoughtful and powerful advice from @pracheeac.bsky.social and @mbeisen.bsky.social

While journal publishing has always been deeply problematic, hurting both the pace and trajectory of science, something is happening in this moment that is finally causing the system to crumble under its own weight and cost.
