Bruh you still gotta publish that unsupported hypothesis

Nah, academics love their publication biases.

Wait, I mean journal publishers. Publishers love their publication biases.

Edit: I just remembered it was like 16 years ago I talked about this to a mentor. They wanted a FOSS solution for all those unpublished papers, but nobody ever bothered to put in that effort. A shame, really.

Is there a particular journal for this

[–] mvirts@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Hmmmmm if we can sell it to AI companies....

Lose interest doesn't seem to have enough connecting arrows

[–] SaltSong@startrek.website 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Other than that, it seems fairly accurate.

there are several problems with this flow chart… question life choices, sulk… i’m wondering if this was ai generated

[–] SaltSong@startrek.website 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I don't see that as a problem. I can easily get caught in that loop.

[–] xor@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

it bothers me because of my computer science background… flow charts should be pretty much executable, to me… other people can do whatever they want, i suppose.
but, you could have all of the loops with proper arrows and some decisions in there…

[–] SaltSong@startrek.website 5 points 4 months ago

Ah, I see. You are thinking about the properly structured flowchart, not the humorously true one.

Yea, fair enough.

Where’s the inevitable desk reject after months of work?

[–] K4mpfie@feddit.org 4 points 4 months ago

Idk seems like the whole "write the damn paper and rework it until you're good" part is missing (It's just yet another loop of tantrum and sulk)
