It looks like they screened 45 strains of bacteria to find 9 that passed their safety tests, and then only one of those had a 100-percent response. The sample size is also small: 5/5 sounds a lot less impressive than…
Just so everyone reading this is clear, it’s not 70% of grant money, it’s an extra 70% on top of the direct costs (41% of the total awarded). A more typical number for a large state university would be somewhere around…
Compliance with policies set by Congress and the relevant funding agencies, which establish standards for things like safeguarding the private health data and safety of study participants, mandating that de-identified…
It does distract from the process of actually doing research, but I will point out that funding agencies take past productivity into account, so you can’t do literally nothing with the money and expect a grant to get…
I would say teaching is not that relevant specifically for most tenure-track positions at big research universities. It is absolutely something you need to demonstrate some actual experience and proficiency with if you…
Feel free to read “mostly” for “only” in my response, then. My point is still that even outside of Brightline (East — there’s also Brightline West, LA to Vegas) and the NEC, there are actually a lot of city clusters and…
I don't understand why highway self-driving would help save on costs. You would still have to exit the highway to make stops, and that means you would need a driver to be on board the whole time, right?
There's a big difference between "Amtrak's current long-haul routes do not turn a profit" and "intercity rail in the US only makes sense in the Northeast Corridor." There are many metropolitan areas in America that are…
I don't think the problem is that we can't identify routes that would get a lot of use. It's that people running public transit have been charged with balancing those high-usage routes with service that's meant to serve…
If you use hydrogen sulfide as an electron donor, you end up liberating sulfur, not oxygen. Contrary to grandparent, in oxygenic photosynthesis, the oxygen does come from splitting water. The resulting hydride used to…
Most people naturally become more agreeable over the courses of their lives (as well as less neurotic and more conscientious). Beyond that, intentional personality change also seems to be possible. For example, this is…
But the Big Five Inventory [1] does explicitly ask if subjects consider themselves to sometimes be cold, distant, rude, unkind, selfish, or inconsiderate of others, and these answers are all used to compute their…
I’d actually go so far as to say that I’m not familiar with any legitimate therapeutic approach that is not concerned with how the patient treats others. I’ve definitely read self-help books that seemed to be advocating…
I’d be curious to hear a specific example of the toxic or self-centered behavior you’re referring to, since this is not at all my experience.
The point of the article isn’t to never do anything someone else suggests. It’s to get you out of the habit of reflexively agreeing to do other people favors out of anxiety, guilt, or a sense of obligation. If you’ve…
There's also txtplot (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/txtplot/index.html), which is low-resolution but cross-platform...
The short answer is that "tidyverse" is a set of third-party packages that was developed by a different team than base R. It's not a modification of the language itself. This is possible because of certain features of R…
Exactly. If you raise taxes on graduate students, regardless of how precisely the money gets shuffled around, the net result is going to be less money available for research and the necessary labor, and therefore lower…
A PhD (and sometimes a postdoc) is a requirement if you want to do more than low pay lab-tech work in some fields, like pharma. In the life sciences a PhD is more of a professional degree.
