@georgetakei in Albany they call hamburgers steamed hams.

It's a regional dialect.

@georgetakei wow! When I was a kid, the Mets traded Strawberry to the Dodgers, and I and a buddy drew signs of green ooze dripping from Strawberries for when he showed up at Shea..unfortunately it was a rain out and he was a no show! But glad to see Mets fans haven’t lost their nerve!!!

I find myself of two minds about this.

Wait a moment, I think I'm on to a solution here...

Peer review is essential for science. Unfortunately, it’s broken.

There's no incentive to fix the system, which was never designed to catch fraud anyway.

@arstechnica This is another tragic example of how humanity over and over again destroys some of its most beneficial creations only because some - unfortunately - intelligent individuals play unfairly and abuse a system to gain a personal advantage. And just like game theory tells: in the long run everyone has to play unfairly or otherwise fault by default... classic lose - lose

A fix? Most likely impossible without a huge crisis as the gatekeepers benefit from the current system.
