I would like to move chemistry-related conversations to chemchat, seeing as how chem/sky is basically a promotion place now.
I would have liked that to have moderated, but it's bluntly clear that the publishing houses can't change their spots

The idea of getting textual advice that's complete bullshit premised on a misunderstanding written by something that sounds like a human and you can chat with forever and doesn't get smarter is not new to me. That's called a tech support forum. I grew up on those.
Maybe that is my vaccine.

Going out on a #chemsky limb to state h-index +1 is way less exciting than tool-index +1…even though it required the inevitable second trip of the morning to the hardware store (queue the Tim “The Toolman” Taylor Grunts)
