@bensen @Shpigford Are you supplementing paperless with something to get to Evernote functionality? I'm thinking less about docs and more about richish notes. Notion, for example?

[Jeffrey Spies @JeffSpies]

This sounds like fun!

Luckily journal author pay has remained the same. 🙃

[Fight for the Future @fightfortheftr]

While the tens of billions publishing is making has been at historic highs over the past several years, median author incomes, which frankly were always pathetic, have gone down over 50% since 2007.

@MushtaqBilalPhD @raulpacheco @scite Can you upload your own collection of articles to scite?

[Jeffrey Spies @JeffSpies]

When it comes to AI, definitions are one of the few things really flourishing (*cough* AGI *cough*).

[@mrgunn ⏸️ @mrgunn]

When did the ability to create massive volumes of lowbrow crap become "maximum human flourishing"?

[Jeffrey Spies @JeffSpies]

@ARWalz Well deserved!

[Jeffrey Spies @JeffSpies]

@JasonWilliamsNY Hmm, not bad. This could become a thing. With that said, I'd go for your dish if for no other reason than the meat on the AI dish is almost certainly people.

[Prachee Avasthi @PracheeAC]

Good at thinking through high leverage research projects that you’re happy to iterate on or sunset if they don’t pan out so you can test new approaches/insights? You might be the ideal Discovery Project Scientist @ArcadiaScience! Our next round of review begins in about a month so this is the time to apply!

@Rafa_Sanjuan_ So, it's not great news, but at least we have some new areas of study?
