At UNC School of Law this morning, three #AI bots are sitting as jurors in a mock trial of a juvenile robbery charge.
Intense criticism came from members of a post-trial panel including a law professor and a philosopher with legal training.

I have received (fair and helpful) feedback on my awful methods chapter. This is the element I find most difficult to write, which is strange because it's 'just' what I've done. It was the same for my MSc diss. Anyone got any top tips for writing a decent methods chapter? #PhDChat #AcademicChat

Someone has to be winning right?

Here's something many peer-reviewers need to work on: not approaching your review of a revised manuscript with prejudices based on the initial submission.
Treat it like a paper you've never seen before.

Hey researchers, I'm looking for examples of #openresearch practices that you employ that directly benefit _you_.
I.e. things that work towards open science, but also benefit you directly (save you time/effort/money perhaps).

I guess that could capture a certain form of bibliophilia.

One of the sobering things about academia is how often your work is cited in support of a point you're sure you didn't make. And on occasions in support of a point that's the polar opposite of the point you intended to make
