@noahWG Surely you’ve seen this: individual.utoronto.ca/somody/quiz.ht…
@IHStreet @Pettorelli +1. Seriously contemplating leaving academia in the next year. Hoping to find another way to keep doing science.
@distribecology @recology_ I think I win this round of hipsterest coffee shop. pic.twitter.com/b7SxyUhw
@IHStreet @Pettorelli agreed. But the problem is so pervasive in STEM that we are reaching a breaking point.
@distribecology There is one guy here at the arbor cafe with a Sony Vaio. We're all giving him dirty looks. #maccity
Many more @rOpenSci packages are either on CRAN or will soon get there. Look at all the green on this page! ropensci.org/packages/
@recology_ @ethanwhite @fonnesbeck @EliSwede Anyone know if pandoc supports multi-markdown tables? I also hate lack of tables in mdown.
birbigs I want to live in the Quiet Car of life.
Fun fact: I begin nearly all weekends with a todo list titled "Fires burning" as immortalized in this painting. bukk.it/shitsonfire.jpg
. @recology_ is a R machine. Two packages off to CRAN the same day!
Great perspective on work-life balance and gender inequality in academia by @Pettorelli sciencecareers.sciencemag.org/career_magazin…
couldn't agree more.
rOpenSci ritis, our #rstats wrapper to the Integrated Taxonomic Information Service (or ITIS) was just sent to CRAN, code: bit.ly/HyWEsx
@msanclem @MiriamGoldste Can I blurb the book? "Total…garbage". or maybe I should save that for Miriam's garbage patch book.
@Impactstory Will there be altpetizers at this event? maybe some altisanal beer?
@MiriamGoldste I always use Frontier when I travel to/from CO. I like them a lot.
eperlste If the victors of the Tenure Games have no incentive to change and everyone else gets killed, how does academia evolve?
@duffy_ma I get science done at a much slower pace and I don't even have a baby. #hangsheadinshame
@melissaterras Love it. I bet Governor mittens will give us all professor jobs.
The myth of making tenure (or finding a TT job) is now officially folklore. …miainchildrenspicturebooks.tumblr.com/post/335104222…
