@cosmicfibretion Woodhouse’s Geometric Quantization is stunningly good. In my opinion anyway. — PolitiTweet.org

@DrBrianKeating Single leading researchers as editors deciding what to do at a vastly smaller number of different journals. Does this shock you? — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
Here is my article in @ScienceMagazine. It was diluted to AVOID the conclusion we had spent 1000s of dollars from @SloanFoundation to fly me all over the country for @ASCBiology. Nothing like destroying your own findings on PR to get peer approval. Nuts. https://t.co/1ULSGidDAA — PolitiTweet.org

@DrBrianKeating I have referred many times Brian. And across many different fields: economics, demography, labor, immigration, physics (theory), finance, polysci, mathematics, etc….You? — PolitiTweet.org

Lastly, if I tell editors that I am not competent or current enough to review, many tell me not to worry about it. I know my stuff. That’s why I don’t play. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
I may still have the recordings. It was unbelievable. Slave labor admissions. Chinese grad students were called “science coolies” by more than one PI. Women in science were controlling their fertility into their late 30s to get tenure. Unbelievable interviews. Truly shocking. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
Irony is that I am a….PEER REVIEWED author in a leading journal on this! Are you my friend? And do you know how we got this in? By destroying our actual findings!!! We recorded and sourced things that we still weren’t allowed to publish because it was potentially revolutionary. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
I’m as serious as a heart attack on this. The situation is well known to be out of control. Replication crises. Conflicts of interests. Quid pro quos. Competency issues. Group think. Our recorded findings were so explosive we couldn’t publish them w/o watering them down. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
Oh it is much worse than that. I am still regularly asked to referee papers in some fields where I am not competent to referee but where I have an interest. Have also recorded interviews with ASCB’s top PIs who laugh at the quality of the editors at the journals discussed. — PolitiTweet.org

@DrBrianKeating @Nature @ScienceMagazine @PhysRevLett Is that sarcasm? Real question. Let’s look at our friends in Biology. Are you aware of the Cell/Nature/Science problem? — PolitiTweet.org

Lastly, he fooled younger scientists into saying what @martinmbauer repeated. Most younger scientists have never seen earth shattering breakthroughs that dominated earlier eras and have no idea that Peer Review is not traditionally part of their fields. Madness. Thx. #MindControl — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
His business was called Pergamon Press. And by exploding the number of lower quality journals, he obligated all universities to send him a fortune in subscriptions to avoid having incomplete libraries. A scheme as ingenious as it was unethical. https://t.co/yww5dR18gF — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
Furthermore the person who may be most associated with moving all of science towards Peer Review was an unscrupulous buisness man who made a fortune hoodwinking scienitsts and universities into buying his explosion of overpriced journals. He is the father of Ghislaine Maxwell. — PolitiTweet.org

Setting 1965 as the rough date in which non-biomedical science becomes dominated by "Peer Review", which do you find more impressive: — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
If I say "Strong High Quality Editors is the worst form of academic vetting...well....except for all the other ones ever invented. Ha ha." we are now on a level playing field. And what is more, science until 1965 was not obsessively focused on peer review...leaving a question. — PolitiTweet.org

Let's learn this trap of first order counter intuition together. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
"X is the worst form of Y...except for all the other ones ever invented!" Is a vehicle that automatically flatters the sense that we are sophisticated. It's a cognitive trap for the college educated. Smaller numbers of journals with higher quality strong editors is the solution. — PolitiTweet.org

There is a reason we still do both. As a wise man once said „ Peer review is the worst system...except for all the… https://t.co/LvNTuLkWKw

I agree. This is true. What will you do, however if you find out this type of interpersonal warfare is all through the sciences? You’re looking at one sport in a vast Olympics of STEM hunger games. This is the just the 1st one that got your attention by upending all human life. — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden @POTUS
My word as a Biden: I’ve never been more optimistic about America’s future than I am today.
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
@martinmbauer Was thinking the same. But I think it is because an enormous part of the hep-th arxiv is disingenuous physics. “Sterile neutrinos from Non-commutative spacetime SUSY phenomenology over characteristic p not equal to 2.” could be a paper in a field gone mad. Or it could be a joke. — PolitiTweet.org

@_BenjaminLight Biden is sending advanced tanks. Maybe planes soon. Could be troops then. I can’t tell what is real here. That is why I am asking. — PolitiTweet.org

Bottom Line: I believe our amygdalae are being hijacked daily via social media on an issue of nuclear conflagration. Having low cost anonymous accounts flood us w/ a sense that we are socially aberrant if we don’t get the necessity of risking nuclear war may bring about that war. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
This is an example of what happens anytime I bring up the risk of nuclear war. I am flooded with such tweets indicating I am some kind of coward/idiot/monster. I don’t believe this is all real. But I could be wrong. Let’s see read the reasons people leave and see what happens. https://t.co/edIDEaKsdD — PolitiTweet.org

I have just been told that “Putin is a BULLY who must be stopped at ANY cost.” I’m trying to figure out how much of the relentless pressure on this is coming from humans vs bots. Do you believe that Putin must be stopped at “ANY cost”? Please vote and explain reasoning below. — PolitiTweet.org

@SkyLukeWater @cosmicfibretion Ha! — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
@cosmicfibretion Perhaps you mean “Maybe quantum gravity is simply a (pseudo)-Riemannian formulation of the quantum.” Quantum mechanics has already been made geometric where the uncertainty relations emerge from curvature tensors on phase space line bundles. — PolitiTweet.org
