    Dunno, dark twisted fantasy is a banger of an album. Can’t listen to it now due to the artist’s recent actions, but it’s genuinely a good album. Fuck Kanye and his enablement of fascism, there’s no need to pretend that he never did anything cool - as if that would make his actions any less terrible.











  • In my field it’s often general journal policy, not an individual choice. It’s hit or miss, as it can be easy to guess who the reviewer or author is in a niche field. I personally don’t go out of my way to figure out the author’s affiliation, even if it can be trivial. Regarding self citations, those are usually obfuscated at the review stage. I’d say that a paper is easy to narrow down to a circle of scholars, but it might be the first paper of a research associate, a throwaway paper by a PI, or a paper that aims to engage those narrow specialists. So is a kind of smoke screen.
