Another skill that I’m interested in is how senior researchers skim papers. I’d be more interested in seeing how you/neel skim a paper in 5 minutes or how you quickly skim the literature on a particular topic rather than a deep dive into you spending hours on a single paper. This is because I more often have to do the former; very rarely do I want to do a deep dive into a paper.
I intended for this to be a skim of a paper! The problem was the massive time multiplier as I tried to write my thoughts down.
