How the hell can it take a day to just write one page? Answer: because that one page has 40 citations, each of which has to be identified, confirmed that is actually supports the argument, other related citations tracked down and read enough to know whether they need to be cited too, and crafting just one sentence to say JUST what is needed, no more and no less, can take for-freakin-ever. #science 🤓 🥴
@chiasm
I have seen many badly written papers
@mur2501 Yes but I'm trying not to add to their number. 😄
@chiasm
What subject are you writing the paper in?
@cnx
yes I have a lizard family living with me in my room
@mur2501 Most of my collaborators are EE and CS (and psychiatrists and geneticists and neuroscientists--we get around...). 😁
oh no, @mur2501, don’t. that’s exactly how lizard robots are made in the valley of silica
