- The one that always makes me most suspicious is Facebook. So many people saying, "Oh no, it's just that they have so much tracking data." I will not be surprised if they have been listening somehow.

[Not loaded yet] - My suspicion from dealing with Reviewer 2 over a 30-year career was that PIs can contribute by supporting balance in e.g., journal clubs. I think new generations of GLPs are raised at PhD/postdoc level, when trainees are encouraged to be destructively critical of other labs' work.
- I also think that there's some natural variation in trait levels of scepticism versus open-mindedness. The strongly sceptical can be an advantage in a balanced team, if they can reign in the destructive tendency. As Nicole says it can kill the spirit.
- Reposted by Tom HartleyLet's talk about "grumpy lab person". Many labs have them. With an eye to keeping science at its most rigorous, they cross the line into criticism that's too harsh. They are the ones who risk killing your scientific spirit. They are reviewer 2. /1

- Reposted by Tom Hartley🚨 New preprint! Why do some insights from spikes translate to field potentials while others don't? In this paper we compare visual memory representations in spikes and LFPs to propose a general framework that answers this question. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... 🧵 (1/10) 🧠🟦 🧠💻

- Getting close to the social media launch of my audio software company. Here's what we're trying to do... hartleydsp.com/about.php In part a reaction against generative AI in art and music.
- New business: there's a lot of artificial & artificial-sounding music about at the moment. It's catchy and compulsive sometimes, but people want to reconnect with human artists and performances. For that we'll need better tools, tools that give us the feeling we're right there in the room.
- My new business is getting underway, with a prototype spatial reverb plugin in the pipeline. Visit the new website to find out more: hartleydsp.com/index.php
