@nefertitillated @GidMK Thus you have: it has proven to some extent that the hypothesis is incorrect and the opposite of null is true. Which is ambiguous regarding that the null is that it doesn’t help and opposite is that it gains but it’s kinda pedantic utilization of language at that point.

@nefertitillated @GidMK This is literally science. we never say our hypothesis was proven correct we say we can reject the kill hypothesis. If your statistical significance isn’t robust enough to argue against the null (which is typically the direct opposite of the hypothesis)then you can’t reject it.

@thekatestewart @philippabarr_ @AcademicChatter Just dropping a pin here because I’d love to get information on this as well!

@shilosarah Big same. I had COVID and besides some pretty gnarly coughing I could basically move around and be fine. This flu- I was in bed for 3 days w/ just getting up to get water tiring me out. 0 appetite or energy. It was abysmal.

@PSUmBiome This was an awesome experience and I’m so glad to have been invited to speak!

[Max Aleman 🏳️‍🌈 @PhylloMax]

@RaulGoch @PSUmBiome Thanks for listening in! It was awesome being able to present in front of so many people.

Let’s get out there and support @PhylloMax on Friday.

Dear colleagues - if you’re seeing strokes more and more in adults in their 20s 30s 40s, you got to raise that alarm.

[Alexandra Margets @_acmargets]

Same. Same. Same.

My angry plant breeding student plea to future authors of “Yield increase by [insert wild number] in X crop” studies:

Please verify your yield estimates in multi-environment trials in elite backgrounds. Yield in lab-optimized, unimproved lines means very little 14/

[Dr. Merritt Khaipho-Burch @MerKhaiBurch]

This won’t be the last time a paper like this is published. Keep an eye out for the sample size, yield estimates against commercial lines, and if these estimates are corrected for field-design/grain-moisture/etc…. 13/

@MorganCarterPhD ITS SO BAD. I have literally begun to question if I had social skills to begin with at this point.

@stephenablack Honestly we’re the best

I'm working on a new series of insect wing venation paintings. So far I've concentrated on Hymenoptera but I plan on doing a Diptera set next. They are a little wonky because drawing free hand with a bottle of goo is hard but I'm happy with the results.

[Crystal Cooke-McEwen, PhD @Disholcaspis]

I can't remember if I posted this collage on Twitter back when I first finished making it. This is my gall collage which contains galls from 4 different Disholcaspis species.

@ScientistaMaggs @AcademicChatter @AcademicsSay OMFG

[Dr Esther Odekunle @EstOdek]

Yeah. And sometimes I can’t even get that right

[Max Aleman 🏳️‍🌈 @PhylloMax]

Seeing a solid wall of text makes me immediately sad.

[Max Aleman 🏳️‍🌈 @PhylloMax]

@PlantPathSecret LITERALLY ME LAST THURSDAY AND I WAS LIKE, “Hm, this is not like riding a bike it seems.”

[Max Aleman 🏳️‍🌈 @PhylloMax]

@Jbchinga @wardofplants I love it!!! And hat baby in the photo is my angel trumpet!
