npub1jpp36eeycvlkkdy4d4l4lgswvf8jtdare5vly0w0sk7rc39pzgrqlyu59l (npub1jpp…u59l) There is a type of "not working" most people don't see. My PhD advisor was extremely well connected in a rather small field. So when you submit a paper, you don't know exactly who's going to review it, but you know the five people in question. Because you had lunch with them just some weeks ago at a conference.

This doesn't mean his papers were bad. The opposite. We made sure several people in house have reviewed it. But it still meant we never had to make changes requested by reviewers.
