    Serious questions: 1. Do you think you twitter helps you discover new things? 2. Do you ever deep dive into those things? 3. Could you have discovered them elsewhere? 4. Do you think you're learning more, or does it just feel like you're more plugged in?

        I have, on multiple occasions, followed someone outside my discipline who shared an insight in their field that directly helped me dive deeper into my own work.

        To elaborate, my next book will have somewhere between three and five citations of sources I got from diving into rabbit holes that started on Twitter.

        I think that's good sorting. Begone, over-optimists!

        Yes to all 4. I was skeptical of twitter only joining a few months ago. I have learned & implemented new R code, found & read new papers, and discovered male scientists incredibly supportive of their female colleagues. The former help my science and the latter gives me hope.

        The problem is it isn’t focused. Professionally I’ve learned a lot. But it drags me down rabbit holes and sucks my time on random tangents. So trade off.

        I found that it's worthwhile blocking updates from people that post a lot about controversial topics even if I like their views. Sometimes simply turning off retweets from them already helps a lot. Closes a lot of the rabbit holes I'd jump in.

        1.) No, not really 2) See (1). For example, most requests for a reference will be ignored unless you belong to a clique or a high degree node. Thus it's rare and also, always great when someone does help. 3) Yes 4) I've sought other tools to learn with.

        Note also that most of the people that respond did not evaporate due to a lack of utility to them.

    Loading seems to be taking a while.
