Right outside of Evergreen! The trail is called Independence Mountain.

Super interesting stuff! Definitely comports with the idea that ADHD is as much about motivation as it is about attention/cog control.

Yeah. It's pretty blatant consensus-mongering. At each phase of the process they asked for free response feedback, and I wrote multiple paragraphs of very critical feedback for many of the statements each time, and was roundly ignored.

Many of the other statements were like this as well, with authors asking "what do you mean by this?" and being met with basically "Thats pedantic. Do you *agree* with it?" I can't say for sure, but I suspect that was a reason why so many statements had high non-response rates.

For example, I mostly focused on the "attention fragmentation" statement of the paper since it's closest to my research area, and despite repeated comments that the lead authors didn't even define "fragmentation" in any way that makes sense with the literature, they forged ahead.

I've gone back and forth many times as to whether being involved in this effort was a good idea, but without the involvement of many of the other more skeptical authors it would have come out much worse and more lopsided than it already is.
comment in response to post
It's not even a "consensus"! I (along with other authors on the paper) have pushed back heavily at just about every phase of the writing process. The paper being framed by some of the more visible authors as "all of these people agree with this" is patently false.

Oh hell yeah. I love this idea. I'll share it with the other hackathon organizers. Scripting it might be a challenge with how much variety in formatting there is across different journal requirement webpages, but it's at least worth looking into!

I was convinced yesterday that I was about to watch a 65 year old man snap in half trying to do 225lb squats with his back bent like a fishing pole.

Biased perspective here, but consider adding northern Michigan and/or the Upper Peninsula. Most beautiful views I’ve seen outside of Big Sur. Unless you’ll be up this way during the winter. If so, carry on lol.

Incredibly correct take.

I introduced the social media unit in my class this semester by saying “no one really knows what’s going on with all of that right now, so it’ll be fun to talk about it with you all”
