Beautiful quote shared by Rachel Thomas @math_rachel at #AIMI20: "Data are not bricks to be stacked, oil to be drilled, gold to be mined, opportunities to be harvested. Data are humans to be seen, maybe loved, hopefully taken care of." - @rajiinio
@KLdivergence 2/2 AC didn't let us rebuttal. It is not just ML, people are getting very clumsy with reviews everywhere. COVID stress side effects.. perhaps!
@KLdivergence 1/2 We waited for six months for a journal that boasts 60 day reviews. I contacted the editor of journal and after few days the review came back with 2 very short (obviously last minute) and haphazard reviews plus one long grumpy one that asks for clarification.
I haven’t run an ICU in 10 years but retraining as a #COVIDwarrior with my mentee now mentor Johnny @evankel3 My thoughts go out to the @atscommunity and so many friends on the front lines. So proud of Us!
@FrankS1956@divayc I wish more medical journals had more reasonable preprint policy. For example, I don't think ATS agrees to review a paper if there is any preprint version.
@McGnty@devon_cantwell It is not a publisher that brings respect to a journal, it is hard-working reviewers and authors and the culture and rigour of a scientific community that makes a journal respectable! It is good to know your place.
Things that are not required to be a scientist:
-Having a PhD
-Publishing peer-reviewed papers
-Getting paid to do research
Things that do make you a scientist:
-Using the scientific method to study stuff
That's it, that's the whole list.
