There's a reason @lexfridman gets all the big names - he's a genius communicator.

Agree with all points above. Important to mention alongside that masks alone cannot and should not replace social distancing and hand hygiene, but can be helpful if used together!

@lexfridman blocked me when I questioned him about ethics of publicizing his work on Tesla auto pilot without peer review. He is not ethical and I am sad that you partnered with him2 replies 2 retweets 4 likes -
I often block people - not necessarily for any reason other than lack of emotional energy; I'm not sure that's inappropriate. I recommend people block liberally - otherwise twitter can be exhausting!

And I think the traditional peer review process is awful gate-keeping.

While there are flaws in the traditional peer review process, I think the combination of avoiding peer-review and blocking/suppressing critique and discussion on your work is dangerous and should be discouraged. Pre-publish but don't censor critics

Yes of course. That's the whole point of pre-publishing. To get a broader discussion. That doesn't mean you have to personally engage with people who, for instance, negatively impact your mental health. Blocking someone doesn't stop others engaging with them.

I really don't like it when blocking is stigmatized. It's an important tool for many people dealing with difficult situations, and no-one should be forced to communicate online with people they're not comfortable with.

Blocking is akin to silencing dissent. I called out
#fakenews that Lex Fridman was peddling as a foot soldier of Musk. I asked for hard evidence. That is not difficult if he was doing genuine work. Dogma and bullying should never replace hard evidence.1 reply 0 retweets 5 likes -

I hope you can see that many people need to use blocking to avoid deeply disturbing campaigns designed to harm.

I block trolls who attack me with sexist comments. This is different. Lex Fridman blocked me when I asked for scientific evidence behind his work.
