Jack Stack@jackstack.bsky.social2wSide note but one of my goals is to have a hypothesis with a cool name. “Red Queen”, “Elvis taxa”, why do we let the invert people get all the cool ones?Jack Stack@jackstack.bsky.socialBeing a scientist is thinking you have a brilliant original idea and then seeing someone had the exact same idea in the 80's.27
J Pardo@jdpardo.bsky.social2wVan Valen explicitly referenced a bunch of mammal data in the Red Queen paper.11
Jack Stack@jackstack.bsky.social2wGood point but what’s the best name a vert worker has given something?1
Jack Stack@jackstack.bsky.socialMy fault for not being specific enough, we are good at taxon names though.13/10/26, 4:49 pm·0 reposts·1 like
