[02:54:08] <Bytram> confusion?

[02:55:27] <Bytram> are you sure?
[02:55:44] <cmn32480> no....
[02:55:48] <cmn32480> :-(
[02:55:49] * Bytram *used* to be indecisive... but, *now* I'm not so sure!

[03:02:19] <Bytram> cmn32480: /me is looking at your Extrtaversion article...
[03:02:29] <Bytram> you might want to reread reread the first sentence.
[03:02:35] <cmn32480> yesss
[03:02:49] <Bytram> is it really aavailable for free? =)
[03:03:33] <cmn32480> in PDF format, unfortunately
[03:03:53] * Bytram thinks you missed his point
[03:03:53] <cmn32480> I clicked that link 10 minutes ago, and am still waiting for the hotel internet to download it
[03:04:07] <Bytram> MedicalXpress is reporting [medicalxpress.com] on new research [sagepub.com], [Abstract only;full article pay-walled, but available free available for free [dartmouth.edu] (PDF)] published (online) in the journal Psychological Science by researchers at Dartmouth College's Tuck School of Business [dartmouth.edu] into the "Friendship Paradox" [wikipedia.org].
[03:04:13] <takyon> hey all, i'm writing about google's VP9 milestone (25 billion hours watched on youtube) and throwing in the news about v-nova/perseus
[03:04:15] <cmn32480> me thinks I see it now
[03:04:21] <Bytram> ;)
[03:04:25] <cmn32480> see it now
[03:04:28] <cmn32480> seeit now
[03:04:33] <Bytram> also, you might want to add a space after the ';'
[03:05:29] <cmn32480> k
[03:05:29] <Bytram> also, I am not at all sure what the standards should be, but I see putting "..." on a line by itself chews up a lot of vertical space...
[03:05:43] <Bytram> ...
[03:05:43] <Bytram> "If you're more extraverted, you might really have a skewed view of how extraverted other people are in general," Feiler says. "If you're very introverted you might actually have a pretty accurate idea."
[03:05:43] <Bytram> ...
[03:05:46] <cmn32480> not sure... it is a break in the quote
[03:06:01] <Bytram> [...] "If you're more extraverted, you might really have a skewed view of how extraverted other people are in general," Feiler says. "If you're very introverted you might actually have a pretty accurate idea."
[03:06:01] <Bytram> [...]
[03:06:22] * Bytram learned that technique from _gewg
[03:07:12] <cmn32480> interesting The Mighty gewg_ is quite the fellow
[03:07:21] <Bytram> btw, excellent topic for a story -- I am more of an intravert
[03:07:26] <Bytram> ayuh
[03:08:25] <cmn32480> and I totally missed the dept line...
[03:08:28] <Bytram> cmn32480: "Abstract only;full article" should be "Abstract only; full article"
[03:08:30] <cmn32480> sheesh
[03:08:47] <Bytram> from the whacha-lookin-at-bub dept
[03:08:48] <cmn32480> I have bene makign the suggested changes, but have not hit update yet
[03:08:55] <Bytram> ahhh, nvm
[03:09:27] <Bytram> btw, /me had always thought it was 'extrOvert' not 'extrAvert'
[03:10:53] <cmn32480> virtually the same definition according to Google
[03:11:33] <cmn32480> changes made and updated Bytram
[03:11:38] <cmn32480> Thanks for the look over
[03:11:43] <Bytram> cmn32480: hmmm, have you ever heard of etymonline?
[03:11:55] * Bytram can't remember if it's .com or .org
[03:12:09] <cmn32480> .com
[03:12:13] <Bytram> nod nod
[03:12:27] * Bytram can get lost in there for HOURS!
[03:12:28] <cmn32480> I jsut looked
[03:12:31] <cmn32480> It is .com
[03:12:31] <Bytram> =)
[03:12:40] * Bytram is sneaky that way... made you look!
[03:12:56] <cmn32480> at least it wasn't a goatse link
[03:13:31] <Bytram> http://etymonline.com
[03:13:31] <RobotHouse> ^ 03Online Etymology Dictionary
[03:14:25] <Bytram> http://etymonline.com
[03:14:25] <RobotHouse> ^ 03Online Etymology Dictionary
[03:14:27] <cmn32480> i dropped them into google and took the easy way out
[03:15:10] * Bytram channels a beatles song
[03:15:16] * Bytram goes to refresh the story
[03:16:27] <Bytram> much better!
[03:16:49] <Bytram> might want to move the other ellipsis before the following paragraph, too.
[03:17:03] <Bytram> ...
[03:17:04] <Bytram> The rest of us view our social world
[03:17:06] <Bytram> cmn32480: ^^^
[03:17:17] <Bytram> [...] The rest of us view our social world
[03:17:22] <cmn32480> got it
[03:18:21] <Bytram> nice!
[03:19:00] <Bytram> also, in the first paragreaph, there's a whole lot of subordination going on, but I think that the word "into" in "into the "Friendship Paradox"" does not sound right
[03:19:37] <Bytram> hmmm,
[03:20:21] <Bytram> ahhhh
[03:20:37] <Bytram> research ... into the "friendship paradox"
[03:20:46] <cmn32480> correct, sir
[03:20:57] <Bytram> but, in rewording and introduction of subordinate clauses, it no longer reads right to me
[03:21:10] <Bytram> hold on for a moment
[03:21:20] <Bytram> MedicalXpress is reporting [medicalxpress.com] on new research [sagepub.com], [Abstract only; full article pay-walled, but available for free [dartmouth.edu] (PDF)] published (online) in the journal Psychological Science by researchers at Dartmouth College's Tuck School of Business [dartmouth.edu] into the "Friendship Paradox" [wikipedia.org].
[03:21:25] <Bytram> ^^^ that's what we have atm
[03:21:49] <cmn32480> methinks there needs to be a comma befor into
[03:21:54] <Bytram> MedicalXpress is reporting on new research published in the journal Psychological Science by researchers at Dartmouth College's Tuck School of Business into the "Friendship Paradox".
[03:22:05] <Bytram> that's with all the subordinate stuff pulled
[03:22:36] <cmn32480> right
[03:22:51] <Bytram> which investigated the "Firendship Paradox" or something like that sounds better to my ear
[03:23:31] <Bytram> MedicalXpress is reporting on new research published in the journal Psychological Science by researchers at Dartmouth College's Tuck School of Business which investigated the "Friendship Paradox".
[03:23:35] <cmn32480> MedicalExpress is reporting on new research into the "Friendship Paradox" by...
[03:23:49] <chromas> What if you move Friendship Paradox toward the beginning? "MExicalXpress is reporting on new research into the Friendship Paradox, published by"
[03:23:58] * chromas is too slow
[03:24:10] <cmn32480> Thanks for agreeing wiht me chromas
[03:24:24] <Bytram> it does bring things closer together... give it a go and let's see what it looks like!
[03:24:24] <cmn32480> first one time anybody agreed witih me all day
[03:24:45] <Bytram> cmn32480: I'm with ya all the way, buddy!
[03:25:38] <cmn32480> I know... it's been a long day. Once this is done... i need a shower and a bed
[03:25:54] <cmn32480> and a blonde/brunette/redhead to scrub my back in the shower
[03:26:38] <chromas> The ol' Neapolitan shower
[03:26:44] * Bytram has barely enough hair to even tell what color it is, and I'll still not scrub your back
[03:26:50] <Bytram> =)
[03:27:20] <Bytram> cmn32480: thanks a bunch for editing stories while on the road!! *THAT* is dedication!
[03:31:23] * Bytram notes his mind has now offically turned to mush
[03:31:44] <Bytram> time for me to get some sleep

[12:43:53] <takyon> coolhand
[12:44:23] <CoolHand> takyon:
[12:45:10] <takyon> this link might redirect to the nature article once it's activated: http://feeds.nature.com
[12:45:12] <RobotHouse> ^ 03Error: DOI Not Found ( http://dx.doi.org )
[12:45:13] <takyon> but it isn't
[12:45:20] <takyon> april 6th my ass
[12:46:32] <CoolHand> yeah, I couldn't find anything that said it would be published online, so I think it's going to be published in the April 6th edition of the dead-tree version of Nature..
[12:46:48] <CoolHand> so I just took out the part about April 6th
[12:47:02] <takyon> "The study appears online April 6 in Nature Biotechnology."
[12:47:08] <takyon> on the duke press release
[12:47:24] <CoolHand> ahh
[12:47:36] <takyon> you figure it would be in the "advance online publication" section on Nature Biotechnology but
[12:47:59] <CoolHand> yeah, I did see that , b/c I remember looking in that section..
[12:48:02] <takyon> it only has up to Mar. 24
[12:48:29] <CoolHand> I think I just leave it like I got it, "due to be published"... what do u think?
[12:48:50] <CoolHand> or I could just take that out, and depend on the other two articles
[12:49:17] <takyon> i'd change it to
[12:49:52] <takyon> in a paper to be published in the April 2015 issue of Nature Biotechnology
[12:50:08] <CoolHand> sounds good..
[12:50:32] <takyon> also this summary needs to name drop CRISPR
[12:51:02] <takyon> since the one line summary of this is: "CRISPR edited the genome, now it can edit the epigenome!"
[12:51:48] <CoolHand> did u switch articles on me?
[12:52:19] <CoolHand> I thought u were talking about the Stanford Battery article, it now seems you are talking Duke Engineers Gene activation
[12:52:38] <takyon> i've been talking about Duke the whole time
[12:52:43] <CoolHand> hehe, ok
[12:53:22] <CoolHand> so, I had the same issue with the other article about the NATURE article
[12:54:55] <takyon> owow
[12:54:56] <CoolHand> ok, why don't u 2nd edit the Duke article, and put in your CRISPR stuff...
[12:55:04] <takyon> ok
[12:55:32] <CoolHand> cool, thanks
[13:04:09] <takyon> take a look
[13:06:50] <takyon> uh, I think Phys.org is a word for word copy of the Duke press release
[13:09:05] <takyon> I'll just move the duke link up to the duke.edu link and eliminate that paragraph
[13:11:20] <takyon> BioTechnology changed to Biotechnology
[13:11:25] <takyon> I think it's done

[15:15:20] <CoolHand> yep, sorry..
[15:15:38] <CoolHand> (I just didn't notice or would have addressed)
[15:16:11] <janrinok|afk> np - it's not a big issue. cmn32480 got more criticism in his Fukashima story than you will get with a minor spolling errir like that
