Congraturations on paper acceptance, but joy is very optional in research. Joy is emotional and it clobbers logical insight. Peer review is an attempt to guarantee a steady firm progress. It is a matter of taste --- do you want progress or just want to be comfortable? If you want joy, better to be a SF writer... Still, strong results with good execution are allowed to enjoy some freedom.

- darkhorse13 6y agoWow, you basically proved the parent comment right by taking the joy out of yours.
- guicho271828 6y agoActually, there is a good opportunity to be full-on joy mode after acceptance --- Presentation at the conference that follows. You can say as many sketchy things as you want (within caveat) and crave attention. So it is just this basic point --- There is no need to do this in a paper.
