It goes up and down depending on how busy I am with other things, but aside from keeping on top of Twitter I try to read about a paper a day. I went pretty deep into a few topics, including HCQ and trying to understand the capabilities and limitations of isothermal PCR.
One interesting pattern I found from discussions on HN is that when people cite papers, they very often don't support what the poster seems to be claiming. That's maybe I something I could expand on, because it's similar to cherry-picking but still not quite the same. In any case, I still appreciate the references because often I learn something :)
