Just did exactly that in a recently accepted paper. A comments from a reviewer made us notice that a certain phenomenon was greatly exaggerated by low-res theoretical calculations and that it actually was barely noticeable. I just added "weakly" to the paragraph describing that phenomenon. Won't delete shit.

We used to intentionally add wrong data to our datasets so we could circle it afterwards, declare it "outlying data" and gain the extra points for spotting and documenting it.

Nice trick!

Agreed. Not much more expensive than a VPS and saves you a lot of headaches.

You don't need uBO that if your browser has a capable adblocker. It's been 3 years without uBO for me and I have seen exactly 0 ads.

Not this with built-in adblockers, despite someone's wishes.

I was talking about AdGuard, not AdGuard Home.
