alright i have my laptop, guess i'm livetweeting the dire wolf preprint.
so a quick reminder: this is not yet peer-reviewed, so there's some different expectations re: quality.
also let's be clear, i'm a hella biased reader, bc i don't trust the hype they're courting

Briefly read through this and...hmm. I have thoughts that may merit a deeper dive.
One big concern: while their reference method seems reasonable for research uses, I'm thinking that if you want to claim you're cloning one, I'm sorry but you've actually gotta de novo that.

Paging archaeologists and shell isotopes folks!!🏺🧪
If anyone would be willing to chat with an archaeology grad student working with oxygen and carbon isotopes in California mussel and abalone please send me a DM! She's drowning in data and needs support she isn't getting from her committee 😔
