Yes.. we've known this for about 10 years. I would say it's a bit less than 10%. Also, your picture might suggest these promoters are noisy, which generally they are not.
btw, we had bigger fish to fry in that paper, so never stressed this observation.

It's important to say *which* type of animal faeces you mean:
BULLSHIT - not true, lies
DOGSHIT - poor or low quality
BATSHIT - illogical or crazy
APESHIT - frighteningly aggressive

CHICKENSHIT - cowardly
JACKSHIT - nothing, nothing at all (a jack…

This is about as dumb as if a philosopher at the dawn of agriculture would argue that, while we just domesticate goats, future societies would go on to domesticate enormous numbers of being... so surely we ourselves must be the domesticated animals of some more superior beings.

Really respect Víkingur Ólafsson’s decision not to play an encore after his amazing performance of Bach’s solar system for the keyboard in Zurich tonight . It was fantastic.
Btw. Could swear he repeated 2nd part of var 25 twice.

Yeah.. that's why consortia are so popular.

Idea: Authors should be forced to assign percentages of the paper each author contributed. Then citations to the paper could be multiplied by the corresponding percentage for each author. Google-scholar could automate it even.

Linear algebra. Taught in first year physics by a math professor that only provided examples/applications whose solutions were already obvious without the general theory.
Made me erroneously assume that it was all just being unnecessarily formal about obvious things.

I think it is rather bad form to put this question without specifying how the 9 coins that are shown were selected because the answer crucially depends on it.

Just because the free market produces pathologies like this doesn't make it any less free market. These journals can charge 12K because people are judging that it is worth it in terms of benefits to their career.
Nobody is forced to publish in these journals.

1 5 6 2 4 7 and then simply go find another bridge somewhere to the right of this picture to take you across the lower right river. Then cross 3. Or you could even go all around the 🌎 if necessary.

All of us within academia can relate to the pathologies and f-ed up incentives in this Fehlleistung of Sabine. But academia is also full of people that find ways around all this shit to do real meaningful scientific work.
I imagine monetizing Youtube also has f-ed up incentives.

Very informative thread. Showing once again that results of scRNA-seq analysis are highly sensitive to even small details of the procedures, in contrast to what seems to be implicitly assumed in many studies.

No, tSNE/UMAP don't 'preserve neighborhoods'.
Fig 2d shows that tSNE and UMAP get the large majority of k nearest neighbors wrong on all datasets. And this is 'recall' not even of true cell positions but just the logp1 mappings of the raw data!
