If you read the article, they are suggesting a different approach to peer review, not doing away with it. They want to find ways to build in incentives for reviewers to make it worth their while to review rather than allowing it to continue as something that scientists do out of a sense of obligation.
They have an interesting approach but I think it doesn't go far enough.
In case anyone wonders, this animal is called a Pica. They're pretty amazing. They live at high altitude in the Rocky Mountains, eat as much as they can cor 3-5 months per year, and hibernate for the rest. They make a cute little chirping call.
You know, I use Linux at work but use windows at home. I've been thinking of switching for a while. I think the thing that is going to push me over the edge is the difficulty that I have saving a file to my own god damned computer.
I love automatic backups to the cloud WHEN I CHOOSE TO USE THEM! I'm tired of Microsoft essentially holding my data for ransom, though.
That's the point where I'd politely ask them to come outside with me, then beat the shit out of them while repeating "Your body (punch), my choice (punch)" until I felt they got the point.
Oil and gas are the apple that will get us kicked out of Eden.
If this results in the Kroger Albertsons merger going through I'm going to be so pissed.
Aside from that, we have far too many monopolistic companies that need to be brought down a peg. This is going to be miserable.
The picture makes me think that both the front and middle wheels turn.
Colorado had nothing to do with this. Harris won by well over 10% here. New Mexico too. Get us out of here, please!
Yes, my MAGA family members bought Trump's line of "I don't know who is involved in that".
I actually think you're wrong. Having MAGA family members, I tuink they are legitimately brainwashed. They are in a bubble where they don't hear the bad about Trump. They only hear good things about him and ad things about his enemies. Some of what they hear is true, much of it is lies, all of it is intended to scare.
I think that, had these people heard the same things the rest of us did, at least some of them would be voting differently. Not all, but enough.
They decided to give a show today. Six of them were hanging out on the dock, but when I stopped to take pictures, they all decided to take off and do circles over the lake.
I got lucky and this guy posed for me for about five minutes. I tried to get some in flight, but they're simply too fast for me!
This beautiful bird has been hanging out at our local lake for the last several weeks. I've been trying to get some pictures of him and he finally got close enough for my lenses.
Three or four of these guys have been hanging out in the lake near my house.
Please don't leave CO and NM in the middle of the idiocracy.
