Bluesky people are generally too nice, I’m still living after this blatant shitpost #rstats

😔

It’s so helpful to see thoughtful engagement with these issues.

Congratulations! 🥳

For the record I don't actually think this I'm just trying to start trouble

I think everyone should use the tools that work for them and that wars about tools are usually \textit{not productive}

it's called "taking one for the team"

"TRUST YOUR NERDS"

"The software detected 18 cases in the first 600 datasets that were serious enough to report...based on that limited sample, around 3% of papers contain these types of errors."

😭

Yes I’d make an exception for that

Now to force my trainees to use version control 😂

I'm just a PI, standing in front of his lab, asking them once again to please label things more specifically than "Abstract.docx" or "Grant.docx"

Sometimes, when working on a grant the day it's due, I come up with an analysis that actually seems like a pretty damn good idea

I have also spent several months trying to convince a journal to publish the properly done version of a study after they already published the badly done version.

Same ending. “Not enough interest”

Although magically there was enough interest to publish the first version…

I can’t even

Ever since I was a little girl, I knew that I wanted to answer 275 emails per day and argue with administrators. That’s why I chose a career in academia.

Always be mindful of your physical space and follow clean desk best practices

Clean desk????? Now I feel personally attacked

OK I've learned that if I find a USB drive I'm not supposed to plug it in, because it might have a virus planted by a competitor. Instead I should call IT.

Also I can't hold doors open for co-workers, they might be trying to sneak in the building.

Man: FYI I emailed you the research document you were loking for Woman: I saw that but I also see you "replied all" when you did it

Oh I see, they're targeting full professors

I'm guessing I'm in for quite a ride
