@rspfau i think if your final slide is up and names a few key points, chances are higher that folk engages with these key messages. If people dont know what to ask, the final slide could help remind them on the core messages of your talk.

Twitter exodus folks, welcome to Mastodon!

This place has a few etiquette rules that may be different than what you are used to. For example, it is customary here to:

* mask potentially sensitive posts with the Content Warning flag

* use alt text on all your images

* DM your credit card number, expiration date, and security code to the author of the first toot you come across saying "welcome to Mastodon!"

Another re #Introduction for all the folks who just headed over to 🐘 after the latest bird app change:

Hi, I'm a professor for #Linguistics at the University of Oslo. I consider myself a cognitive scientist with a focus on human speech.
I'm a strong advocate for #openscience and try to help improving methodological practices across the language sciences.
Effective #scicomm is important to me and I consult and give talks on effective #dataviz and #design in research.

@adastra Das ist schwer zu vergleichen. Grade ist der NOK besonders schwach. Unabhängig davon ist die Work-Life Balance deutlich besser als zB in Deutschland. Man hat deutlich weniger admin und teaching load. Dazu kommt noch dass die Promotion zum vollen Professor sehr früh geschehen kann und mit einer substantiellen Gehaltserhöhung einher kommt.

@bananabull I think it is problematic when you present only posterior distributions because they (a) are very narrow relative to the variance in raw data and (b) suggest very tidy distributions which just reflect the model assumptions. I think this is misleading (I have done it before but regret it)
