@bookandswordblog @VictorVenema I understand your position. Many publishers do not care much about quality but profit.

@VictorVenema @bookandswordblog very nice article. I think the next big step in scientific publishing is open peer review.

@jorge Some people seem to want peer review to define what is and is not scientific, but reviewers are fallible, distracted human beings and human beings disagree about what is good science.

@jorge and I would sure hope that anyone with a PhD understands that just because some journal somewhere accepted a paper does not mean that it is a sound argument according to the rules of the reader's discipline! There are whole fields where 'publishing' consists of uploading a paper onto a preprint server and the world has not come to an end.

@jorge I was also shocked seeing that. That reporting was not fully fair. Most people using such services are on the edge of science a series of blog posts analysing these journals showed.
The established researchers on the list are often co-authors, who wrongly trusted the first author. Fake journals ask enormous fees for people finding out where they published and wanting their names removed.

I don't understand how an established professor can fail to identify such fake invitations to publish or attend a conference.

@noctiluca maybe Webofscience, scopus, or sciencedirect.com? (Athough, they all belong to corporate publishers)
Maybe https://scinapse.io/ is worth to try (I haven't tried it yet)

@drbjork on RG there are a lot of job offers. It is more active, I think.
(I do not like them, though) -

@drbjork I guess you have to do some research about the active working groups. Try to engage, attend some conference or even try to engage online via ResearchGate or other platforms.

@ashwinvis I have issues related to notifications on Android. Sometimes they are not shown and I need to open the app to check if I have new messages.
