Remember… A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
Your failed experiment or inconclusive data is not the end, it could be the beginning of something groundbreaking.
Why not document and share it?

The evacuation zone the Israeli military designated yesterday is home to hundreds of thousands of children.
About half the population of #Gaza is children.
If you think children should be punished for the vile acts of Hamas, you’ve lost your humanity.
Atrocities do not justify atrocities.
Seismica will be at the #OASPA2023conference this upcoming week sharing our developments, evolution, and innovations, uniting with our colleagues in our shared goal to enable research around the world to be openly accessible.

Episode 2 of They've Made Us has just landed, and this week Robin Ince and I interview author and forensic anthropologist Professor Dame Sue Black and the sociologist, bioethicist and leading disability campaigner Professor Sir Tom Shakespeare about the people who influenced their lives.
if your name is Robert, and you ask me and others to please call you Bob, but then I ignore you and insist on calling you Robert anyway, I'm not being correct or telling the truth, I'm just being a dick.
Now, substitute "my preferred name" for "my preferred pronoun" - refusing to refer to somebody by the identifiers they prefer is no different than refusing to call them by the name they go by, and it's a dick move in either case. It's not a political statement, or a theological one: it's just common courtesy to call people what they prefer to be called, whether that's their proper name or their pronoun.
More to the point, if you insisted on calling me by a name other than the one I had introduced myself with, after you'd been corrected, I would think you were being an asshole on purpose - and I'd be right.
@seis_matters I’ve also been sad to have lost this (quote from Nature article):
“One of the benefits of Twitter was how it created a sense of community for scientists, particularly for those from under-represented groups. It gave a voice to female researchers about issues such as harassment and unequal pay, and served as an organizing point for scientists of colour to speak out against inequity.”
@sellathechemist @seis_matters I completely agree. What is shocking to me is how highly educated *adults* are slaves of the same addiction that we blame teenagers of... "likes"
The cesspool Twitter is now, paying criminals to post content, allowing/encouraging hate speach, delaying connections to legitimate news sources and banning journalists for being 'hostile' to the company, is beyond the pale.
Why people cannot quit and rebuild the community (they claim they'd miss) here is beyond me 😔
