Of course, the shift is not costless. All else equal, new markers are used or others are given more weight to compensate

I think this is true of my cohort.

Well that could be true as well!

I don’t know if the costs outweigh the benefits if you choose the evaluative metric as article quality. If you choose the metric of student/learning experience, however, this seems justifiable.

I agree with Alan that the marginal appointments member makes a difference, and these things do matter at the margins, particularly among more senior faculty and elite schools

Yes and the rules are not applied equally. Subject matter is one issue but there are others.

There are some issues where you start from wildly different premises—each which the other regard as implausible. If neither person can be persuaded to give up or revise their premises, then you have to look for common logical points of agreement. There may be none. Or they may be exceedingly thin.

A key feature of the voucher program created by congress was the ability to sell vouchers, creating a secondary market for them. In this scheme, sale is prohibited. I haven’t seen anything by FDA on its authority to issue new vouchers without the ability to sell and for new types of treatments

Worse how? Willingness to engage? Maybe. Worse in terms of rancid content. Don’t think so but maybe im wrong.

I find zero engagement anywhere nowadays which may say more about me than a platform. Consensus on twitter id BS is bad. I have no opinion. But I think many ppl on Twitter are acting like it’s 2016 and it’s definitely not.

interesting when i started writing my conclusion was the author had been sufficiently destabilized by technology that it was cause for attention; now i think the foundation is evaporating. no normative take

I think it's too difficult to have this conversation online. but perhaps i will write up my thoughts. but my main position is that there are some kinds of academic work that we want people to do. and when people don't do that work, we lose the primary thing we care about.

i find this unconvincing. the idea that line drawing is hard doesn't mean there are no meaningful lines, or that we shouldn't bother trying to draw them, or figuring out why we think lines or no lines are important. or whether we should simply be talking about shading
