I appreciate the link to the paper. But I consider the article superior in a few ways:
(1) It is brief, and targeted to an audience that is not a specialist in this field.
(2) It includes the video clips (which, to be honest, speak for themselves) and does not require any special credentials or university affiliation in order to view.
> That title is unconscionable
Yeah... the title is rather stupid. It should have gone with just "This Is How Tardigrades Walk".
- chrisseaton 5y agoWhat does 'We Were Not Ready for the Footage' mean?
- brink 5y agoThe title is garbage. lol The rest was easy to consume though and the footage was much appreciated.
- dspillett 5y agoIt is a new version of the “we didn't believe number 4 when we saw it!” method of click-baitery. Not sure if the footage is worth the hyperbole, I was not ready for clicking “no” to every single partner on their list.
- dec0dedab0de 5y agoIt means that when they saw the video it provoked an unexpected emotional response. As others have said, it's not a good title, but I'm treating this as a sincere question because I know there are many non-native speakers that could get confused by this stuff.
- SV_BubbleTime 5y agoAlso, the simple question that the article presents is a good one. Did insects and tardigrades develops their walking similarities by a common ancestor or separately?
- mzs 5y agoRegarding point two, the videos are all linked from the paper and require no special access: https://www.pnas.org/content/suppl/2021/08/26/2107289118.DCSupplemental https://www.pnas.org/content/suppl/2021/08/26/2107289118.DCS...
