@prof_ian_y I looked it up in my notes, and the quote is: "Let's say in life we have what you would call an objective experience and what you would call a subjective experience. What we call realism has nothing to do with the way we experience life. It just has to do with what all the people in this room can agree about."

Apparently from a reading and QnA at Harvard (in 2012? or so) that was recorded but can't find the recording atm.

Love this quote from @rlmcelreath from #StatisticalRethinking 2nd Ed:

"Making choices tends to make novices nervous. There’s an illusion sometimes that default procedures are more objective than procedures that require user choice, such as choosing priors. If that’s true, then all “objective” means is that everyone does the same thing. It carries no guarantees of realism or accuracy."

I have collected some tips on how to write a scientific paper. I know that many people are way better than me at it and that there is a whole genre on this. Still, some have found these tips useful. If you are interested, or you think others would benefit, here you go:
