Honestly, overly, methodically, with tweets and occasional venom

Scientists are dropping their euphemisms, in a discussion about #overlyhonestmethods. The discussion is happening in that den of conversation and twaddle called “twitter”.  These are translations into blunt words about how some people conduct their experiments.


A parallel discussion concerns #overlyhonestreviews. These are translations into blunt words about how some people go about reviewing the work of their peers. Think of it as a peer into the depths of peer review.


BONUS: io9 has a discussion of this, with a selection of some of their favorite tweets.
