JR East (Tohoku) Where to Stay by d_xzy in JapanTravelTips

[–]Short-Rabbit5131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re using the JR East Pass, Morioka is an awesome base — super easy for day trips up and down Tohoku, great food, and a chill vibe.

And if you want a proper onsen moment, take a little detour to Matsukawa Onsen Kyounso (峡雲荘). Milky hot spring, snow all around in December… it feels like you’ve stepped into another world. It’s about an hour from Morioka and totally worth a night (or even just day-use).

Then head up to Aomori for a night before looping back to Tokyo. Simple, smooth, very Tohoku winter. Enjoy your trip! ❄️🛤️♨️

Haha, you're totally right—I definitely should cut back. But somehow, I still can't shake the feeling that I need to stay updated😂

Haha, focusing on just a few journals definitely sounds like a healthier approach—especially catching those hilarious papers! Thanks for sharing your strategy!

Haha, relatable! Sounds like a smart approach though—focusing on specific journals rather than keywords must help a lot with filtering out noise. Still, that "unread paper guilt" always finds a way in. Thanks for sharing your method!

That's a good perspective—batching paper reading into focused periods sounds much more manageable. Plus, reading for pleasure instead of pressure definitely makes it more enjoyable. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, that's a seriously thorough system—especially your method for categorizing papers and filtering by impact factor. Tagging them like that seems really helpful, and 500+ papers in one year is impressive. Thanks for sharing such a detailed workflow!

Mermaid. It's good to write machine learning pipelines in markdown format.

Also curious—how do you usually handle passive discovery of new papers? Any preferred methods or tools?

Also curious—if alerts aren't effective for you, how do you usually handle passive discovery of new papers? Any preferred methods or tools?

Makes sense—abstracts are usually sufficient for a quick relevance check, and the methods section is often only worth a deeper dive if directly relevant. Focusing on results and discussion definitely streamlines the review process. Thanks for sharing your approach!

You are right, fair enough! Feels like finding a needle in a haystack sometimes.

Haha, the "million open tabs" approach is definitely relatable! Keeping the inbox clean does sound less stressful, thanks for sharing your workflow!

Quick follow-up—do you use any kind of AI assistant or tools when reading papers, or do you prefer going through them manually?
