I’m thrilled that this work is finally published! I started preliminary experiments in Jul 2012, summer after 1st year of grad school. While the conclusions I presented at my defense in Mar 2017 remain correct, I knew we could dig deeper. So we did, and I’m really proud.

Academic job seekers often think that because they didn't get a job one year, or didn't get a particular job, there's something they should change in their application. That's often a mistake. Here are some reasons you maybe didn't get the job that are beyond your control(thread)

On my flight today I woke up from a nap & an attendant was walking down the aisle holding a pug, saying “we found this pug. Whose pug is this??” And for 3 hours we all just took turns holding the mystery pug until a verrrry stoned man in the last row woke up & was like “Roscoe?!”

Today, we’re introducing a new model that eliminates accept/reject decisions. By publishing every paper with eLife reviews as a Reviewed Preprint, we plan to restore autonomy to authors, ensuring that they will be judged by what, not where, they publish. elifesciences.org/inside-elife/5…

Massive news: eLife to abolish accept/reject decisions: papers will just be “peer reviewed”. Others can argue about this, but lots of interesting consequences. 1/9 elifesciences.org/articles/83889

15 years ago my PhD advisor taught me One Weird Trick for editing your own writing. Edit **back to front**, paragraph by paragraph. I still use it and it still surprises me how well it works. When I get my students to do it, it often blows their minds. Try it!

7/ To put US faculty hiring another way: 🧑‍🎓The top 5 producers of US profs are Berkeley, Harvard, Michigan, Wisconsin, & Stanford. 🏛Together, they've minted the doctorates of over one in eight sitting US faculty [13.8%]. That's more than all non-US institutions combined [11%].

6/ For US profs with US doctorates, we see universal and extreme inequality in faculty production. 🏭 Overall, 80% of US-trained profs come from just 20.4% of universities. More unequal in the Humanities; less in Education. 8️⃣ 20% of profs come from just EIGHT universities.
