    ooh I like how you did that. What’s that called again?


  • I think III would be better titled “Post-Hoc Hypothesizing,” i.e. where you create (or change) your experiment’s hypothesis after the experiment - clearly that is wrong. “Post-hoc storytelling” sounds like what you do in the “implications” or “next steps” part of a paper. Also, exploratory studies have different standards, right? (I’ve never done an exploratory study.)

    In the graphic, I thought “Non-Publication” and “Partial Publication” referred to experiments, i.e. where you run 4 experiments and only report on the last one, which “worked” – clearly that is wrong. However they are talking about data, which is a bit trickier. In some cases you can’t just upload all your data onto github; it may take a while because some sponsor or corporate office needs to review it before it can be released. A researcher may refuse to release their data until they finish writing a set of papers based on it. There may also be distribution limitations, or licensing requirements related to the data. I’m not trying to defend withholding data, just that these are the problems that need to be addressed.

    Finally, to extend the metaphor, the “publish or perish” mentality is this image’s Satan.














  • People do various things to get the movies past youtube’s copyright algorithms. They adjust color and framerate slightly, they might clip the video (i.e. remove a “margin”), they might remove telltale soundtrack, they might not mention the movie name in the description, etc., and I think if the movie is not monetized the standards are lower. I think if the algorithms don’t detect it, it stays up until a copyright owner issues a takedown claim through youtube. I’m not an expert tho so I dunno.

    How many universities will abandon free speech rights for 10% of their budget?

    All of them. Of course they’ll frame it like “to enable our storied institution to continue performing our vital work, we are temporarily putting a moratorium on non-pre-approved meetings. Thank you for your understanding.”

    Today many of you will learn a new word.

    A kynodesmē (Greek: κυνοδέσμη, English translation: “dog tie”) was a cord or string[1] or sometimes a leather strip that was worn primarily by athletes in Ancient Greece and Etruria to prevent the exposure of the glans penis in public (considered to be ill-mannered) and to restrict untethered movement of the penis during sporting competition. It was tied tightly around the akroposthion, the most distal, tubular portion of the foreskin that extends beyond the glans. As depicted in Ancient Greek art the kynodesme was worn by some athletes, actors, poets, symposiasts and komasts. It was worn temporarily while in public and could be taken off and put back on at will. The remaining length of cord could either be attached to a waist band to pull the penis upward and expose the scrotum, or tied around the base of the penis and scrotum so that the penis appeared to curl upwards.

    In the context of the OP joke that would be a: jynodesmē.

    On that page you will also see links to learn about Kotekas (penis gourds) where you’ll learn:

    Yali men favour long, thin kotekas that help hold up the multiple rattan hoops worn around their waists, whereas Lani men wear double gourds held up with strips of cloth and use the space between the two gourds for carrying small items such as money and tobacco.

    and Nambas (penis sheaths):

    Two tribes on Malakula, the Big Nambas and the Smol (Small) Nambas, are named for the size of their nambas.
