Sometimes, one should listen to German philosophers.
Glad to see this out! Enjoyed speaking with Elissa about the need for rigorous reporting of ephys data quality. Looking forward to broad adoption of the RIGOR standard.
Electrophysiology findings can vary widely from lab to lab, even among those using identical protocols. New guidelines set forth in a preprint should help. By @ElissaWelle thetransmitter.org/electrophysiol…
Almost a decade after the idealistic Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson got more pessimistic. Warned it was "only a matter of time" before Americans were tempted by dictatorship. He warned future Americans to ward off the "wolf of tyranny." Please listen.
@ylecun That’s misleading. Most large employers offer paid maternity leave in the U.S.
American exceptionalism.

not even meaning to be ironic but the months of rhetoric of the need to "save democracy" are somewhat qualified when, within the Democratic party, it is taboo to even suggest that another presidential candidate be considered; even to hint at such an option, in theory, will result in being "unfollowed" by some persons vehement about hewing the line. what, then, is "democracy" if one cannot utter even an option possibility without being shouted down? either you believe in others' opinions being allowed to be heard, if not respected, or you do not. no? yes?
@TrackingActions I love this point by Wolpert and it is something I learned early in Jordan lab (spinal cord) in Winnipeg. The four F's are all about movement: feeding, fleeing, fighting, and reproduction.
@rodneyabrooks Language is not necessary for beavers to build dams, or birds to build nests or wolves to cooperate in bringing down a moose.. The computational story for motor functions is not a story about using language, not even when it involves learning a language.
