I mean, we can’t have a weather these days without thinking about the ongoing climate crisis…
Also I sometimes get the blues related to migraines, which can definitely be related to barometric pressure/humidity.
There are so many kids and they all have at least one parent! No one can remember all their kids’ classmates’ parents.
💯 Just reviewed 400 abstracts not because I might have included them in this report but because I need to account for what is not included. Only works with library databases (and so much gratitude for the librarian who does the searches!)
Are you kidding me? Being near the summer camp is like the holy grail. We used to live walking distance from an outdoorsy day camp, I was so looking forward to sending the kids there. (Then we moved for unrelated reasons.)
May I just say that your work is so incredibly cool? I’ve been out of academia for a while and it’s rare to encounter any body of work that gives me even a tiny twinge of regret.
I hit that save button so fast… thank you!
Such an amazing, dark, funny film. And yeah, not what you’d have thought you’d pick for prescience but here we are!
Oh I have to try that!
It was certainly the year that destroyed any glamour I thought the Ivies had.
I once worked for a professor once who insisted on grading on a curve so it would be “psychometrically valid.” I could never figure out why the grades should compare the students against each other rather than compare each individual against the expectations of the course…
The mom reaction. Glad you were able to help!
😱
That’s all I got. I just… I would be waiting for my upgrade robot body but the transhumanists are just…
Everyone’s talking about Orwell but Huxley’s in here, too.
Gonna start each day with Woody Guthrie recordings. All the verses of “This Land is Your Land.”
(In my imaginary broadcast station, I guess.)
If he looked at the picture of the peanut and decided that “peanut” does not start with “n”, he’s correct there, too! (Seriously I hate when kids’ worksheets do this.)
FYI, this grant program is open to anyone communicating science.
It does not require that you went to school for science.
You could be a Ph.D. student, an artist, a community organizer, a teacher, or any other profession. As long as you are communicating science IRL in the US, you're eligible.
Oh, and dean of students at my kids’ school is Mr. Risk.
There’s a chiropractor nearby named Dr. Tickle.
“Secret ballots, not secret police!” would not be the worst slogan I’ve heard.
Now I need someone to explain why this feels like some sort of personal failure. The studies you included are not the studies you cited! Nobody could make sense of that!
I have spent 3 days trying to figure out this systematic review.
I want to say I don’t get paid enough to do other people’s work for them, but I don’t know that there is a rate at which I would accept having to do work that authors and editors should have done before publication.
Systematic review lists a study as having 42 patients in a 3-way comparison.
The study they reference has 6 patients in a single-arm study.
Do researchers read the studies they cite?
And these days, I have to wonder if they used AI.
::makes popcorn::
I had the grocery store all figured out, but then…
Another day, another systematic review. Inclusion criteria: RCT. So far 2 studies are not randomized. Countless abstracts of included studies don’t give n per group. What are we even doing here?
I need to see this cut. I had a photo illustrated Star Wars Storybook way back in the 80s that had the Biggs part in it because it was finalized before SW was released! I am glad for Biggs to be revealed to the world.
This anthology looks awesome. Back it with me?
I recognize and salute your victory!
If all you want is a neural net that’s pretty good at sorting things into cats/not-cats, you can get it small enough that you can know all the weights! I was doing that 20 years ago and I get real angry at these guys who either don’t know how their machines work or think no one else possibly could!
