Kudos to @science.org for this self-analysis of the peer review process. These kind of data are never shared and don't have to be. Wildly refreshing to see it out in the open. Editorial and peer review dynamics at elite general science journals | Science Advances www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Exames: dezenas de técnicos do EduQA procuram respostas em falta durante a madrugada

Estamos mesmo entregues a uns líderes muito merdosos. Do ponto de vista técnico, formal, comunicacional, ambiental……. Estas idas e vindas do primeiro ministro aos states para ver a bola, a meio de alertas vermelhos em todo o país, são qualquer coisa de extraordinário.

Galp atinge segunda maior margem de refinação de sempre com crise no Médio Oriente

Claro que a #IL, no seu ódio descontrolado contra os Trabalhadores, segue o seu instinto: a desonestidade. Os Sindicatos nunca tiveram poder legislativo e nada impõe. Nunca mencionou que o Governo poderia procurar medidas menos radicais para tentar o consenso. #Laboral #Trabalho

A suborçamentacão é a prática mais eficaz para destruir o SNS, e está a ser usada pelos criminosos do Governo com toda mestria e bastante sucesso. Os desprezo que demonstram pelos nossos cuidados de saúde, das coisas mais importante que temos, é aterradora! Que povo cobarde!

Academic inbreeding—when a university hires its own former PhD students as assistant professors—is widespread in many countries, yet it often sparks heated debate. In this paper, we assess its impact on the fairness of assistant professor recruitment in France.[1/n] booksandideas.net/Academic-inb...
