Also, a sustainable model, even at large universities, would need to have a source for funding the up-front work. Most obvious source would be to tax the prize money. Long-term, I'm not sure what the end-game would look like, but I hav

There are lots of problems with the way research is currently funded. But replacing the current system completely, or mostly, with prizes has an issue that I've not seen discussed, and that is the social/organizational aspects of

It's obvious that Zoom is listening, because if I try to speak when I'm muted, it tells me that I'm muted.

As a professor, this completely resonates with me. For example, I take attendance and make it 5% of the grade. Then I give 5 free days and am generous with absences due to whatever. Why? Because it's a nudge for many students to get th

I would be very much interested in seeing the IRB submission/application that was submitted for this study. I wonder whether or not it was mischaracterized to the IRB, or written in such a way as to diminish the problematic aspects.

Can't speak for others, but I rarely, if ever, look at the table of contents paragraph. The reason is that I find it faster and more convenient to simply scan the section headings, since most CS papers are relatively short.

The biggest issue is the remote part, not the part-time part. I'm a professor, and myself and others in the dept. have remote, part-time PhD students. However, they have finished their coursework, which must be done in person for the m

I am also in CS. My impression is that the situation in CS is different than that in other fields (better). The only publications in commercial venues I have have been with collaborators from areas outside of CS, in journals in their areas.

I can't say whether or not they are worth it, but they provide some degree of branding, mainly to "adjacent" communities. If I see a paper in IEEE something, I have some degree of assurance that there is a minimum quality lev

Definitely no malice. You could start an open-access journal and claim that it will be as selective and prestigious as Nature. But where are your initial papers going to come from? Can you get enough people to submit their Nature-level pape

Yes, the problem is one of collective action. A single, pre-tenure faculty member would be taking a significant risk to publish only in open-access venues. Thus, they don't, and the cycle continues.

If the question were about full validated parsing of HTML with a regex, then I'd agree that "You can't do that" might be part of a valid answer. But finding tags is not doing a full validating parse. Note that the set of

Giving a talk is normal for many academic and "scientist" level positions. Being interrupted with questions is also normal, and I'm personally completely fine with it. The only annoying thing is that the company canceled at t

That email was normal to me for small audience talks. Also, as a professor, I encourage students to ask questions during lecture (my class sizes are small enough so that it works fine).

The US HC system basically runs as a "skim" operation. Since skim is fundamentally percentage based, the more money that flows through the system, the greater the absolute amount that is skimmed. Thus, no one has incentive, in the

If the goal is to lower Rt to below 1, however, it still may be acceptable. See: https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/early/2020/11/20/sci... https://www.medrxiv.org/content/

Large scale testing is likely aimed at public health, where the goal is to lower Rt < 1. Missing some positives is tolerable. Also, the antigen tests are more sensitive when the person is most likely to be contagious.

The checksum should be checked by your computer. So somehow the packet is being repackaged with the correct checksum, but for the wrong data. In other words, when your computer checks the checksum, it matches. Another possibility is that so
