1/n I was going to write a review myself, because this paper was hilarious, specially the twist at the end. @MIT_CSAIL discovers through observations that there is something called "Scientific Method". But the thread by @commieleejones is just gold. He deserves a follow.

2/n But I think there is never a waste of a good thread. So I encourage the authors @crystaljjlee, @arvindsatya1 et al. To research a little bit about the THE SCIENCE because well, its kinda lacking.

3/n It doesn't require much to someone that has been working in data for a living for 10+ years to figure out when something like this happens, there is something afoul going on.

4/n But, well that is a single study right? There are many others, the oldest I could find was from Williams wells in the 50s (yeah the guy that proved airborne transmission of pathogens). Yeah, that old.

5/n Or who know maybe people that had designed DNA cutting and nebulization equipment that revolutionized the entire genetics fields tells you the science actually SUCKS (and big time).

6/n Last but not least, this paper also highlight why I decided to leave academia even before starting in it. Free thinking is not encouraged and in most places if you step too far it means ostracizing yourself.
7/n The conclusion is just another example, what would everybody think if we say: "Hey, these guys may be onto something. SACRILEGE!!!".
@crystaljjlee, @arvindsatya1 you are invited to 'investigate' us, you just need to ask. For once, you may learn something interesting.
