New blog post: "A discussion between @damienneadle and Andrew Whiten regarding Neadle et al.’s CES 2021 talk on ape novel action copying" - sorry, I myself do not have time this week to discuss these issues further here in this thread, thus limited tweet. zoneoflatentsolutions.wordpress.com/2021/07/06/a-d…

@tscottphillips Thom, I can't express how much I agree with this. This very phenomenon has ruined the field of cultural evolution (in some areas).

For me, the biggest sin is bringing the tactics of one game into the domain of the other. For instance, I don't mind scientific debate at all (on the contrary, it's a good thing) but I *despise* it when I see power being used to win scientific debate. We all know it happens 5/6

In 1917 and 1919 Max Weber delivered his two 'vocation' lectures: 'Science as a vocation' & 'Politics as a vocation'. Together they discuss the respective claims to authority and significance of these two domains of human activity. 1/6

@Ninja__Cats @BCU_Psychology @BCUsocscience Thank you so much Emma! I’m honestly shocked!

@RachelAHarrison Ah thank you! Gotta looooooove the conformity popcorn

When you’re running sci comm workshops this week which require large quantities of coloured popcorn but you also want to keep up with #CESConf2021 - it’s time to multitask! Currently enjoying an excellent talk by @damienneadle

If anyone would like to take part in this study it doesn't take long and would really help my student @Elvis26249261 out!

PhD position offer to study tool use in chimpanzees in collaboration with Joseph Call (@StAndrews) and Roman Wittig (@TaiChimpProject) - please RT st-andrews.ac.uk/study/fees-and…

Hi all, please see below for a study oppertunity! If you are interested please contact anmol.sheikh@mail.bcu.ac.uk or DM me for more info!

Hypothetically, imagine if paper reviewers and grant assessors had to read their comments to your face. Might stop some of the overt rudeness by some that hide behind their anonymity. Why do people think being rude and mean helps science and scientists?

Interesting! Some good thoughts here! findaphd.com/advice/blog/56…

Feeling happy! our @BritishAcademy_ research grant to investigate the drivers of tool-use in bonobos has been funded - with @KathelijneKoops and @damienneadle. #FridayFeeling :)

@zannaclay @BritishAcademy_ @KathelijneKoops Ahhhhhhhh!!! Best Friday news!
