"we caution the reader that due to the small data set, these observations could be considered anecdotal" a whole article to say n=143 is too small to say anything. I'm glad ppl spend so much effort on proving women wrong, but then again, does that not just prove the women's point?🧐

Friday's motto☺️

I read it and now I don't wann watch, because it will just mess it up like the Harry Potter movies did with the books.🫣

It is never enough to have them properly removed. Sabatini was thrown out of MIT, but had a new research group and never stopped "teaching".

I agree, but I'm also a bit more disenchanted than that. Academia isn't a meritocracy. People in cushy professor position aren't there because they are the best. They had the luxury to not have a proper salary for years as postdoc, they have the right friends etc. They aren't idealists.

It is a paradox: you want to be acknowledged for your work, but you don't want to tell enough about your work so others could do it too, and maybe do it better than you. Back in the day they just "accidentally" posted the wrong primer sequences in the paper. Now it might be less subtle.

The Locus Recommended List 2025 is up and of course it has The rose field by Philip Pullman. But the reviews on goodreads are pretty damning. Is that book worth those 600+ pages to keep going?🤔

I think @sarahjeong.bsky.social said it's because they devalue women's labor and a LOT of this Scary Logistics stuff comes from people who don't understand that basically all of the civic life they enjoy is created with the help of free labor, largely by women.

this happens a lot in private companies as well. somebody quits, nobody gets hired. then make the picachu-face when the fewer people struggle to deliver the same results. 😞

Azért a witchcraft for wayward girls hogy tudott nyerni? 🥴

Sokszor az az érzésem, hogy az egész könyvkiadói szakma beleállt a földbe. 900 oldalas féltéglák, élfestés és könyv mint dekorációs elem kizárólag, az ezredik non-fic könyv, ami egy 20 perces podcastban elmesélhető... és AI. AI borító, fordítás, maga a szöveg is néha. sírok.

Thank you for the list! Pulapka is a really nice place and we only found it as your recommendation. 😊

Indiana University banned its student newspaper from printing just days before homecoming weekend — after firing the paper’s advisor when he refused to censor critical coverage. That would be bad enough on its own, but FIRE is taking this one personally, as the Indiana Daily Student reported this hostile campaign was due in part to its coverage of FIRE’s ranking Indiana University as the worst public university for free speech. You read that right. The school’s response to the news that they are bad at free speech … is to censor the news. It’s ironic — and not just in the Alanis Morissette sense — that these actions will likely push its overall ranking even lower next year. At least we can’t fault them for consistency.

Why did Indiana University attack and cut its own student newspaper?

Well, in a twist of irony any English professor would call clichéd, it turns out IU did it because they were angry about the students' reporting on a FIRE report naming IU as the worst public university for free speech in the US.

Love that place. I read the book The resurrectionist exactly because it took place in Edinburgh, totally worth it. 😊

but does it have the vein? asking the importan questions 🧐

Headline reads: Altman says ChatGPT will soon allow erotic for adult users.

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable

You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

I just read an article about the super-duper effects of EVOO, and I had no idea what it was, I googled it, and so you don't have to: it's extra virgin olive oil. The superfood. Guh. 😶

Office of the President Dear Dartmouth community, As many of you know, Dartmouth was one of nine universities asked by the White House to give feedback by Oct. 20 on a draft of its “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education.” I am deeply committed to Dartmouth’s academic mission and values and will always defend our fierce independence. You have often heard me say that higher education is not perfect and that we can do better. At the same time, we will never compromise our academic freedom and our ability to govern ourselves. Best, Sian Leah Beilock President

It appears that my employer, Dartmouth, one of the Trump 9, has said no to the compact. All the better given that our president is cited within it. But she’s saying no. Count the small victories when they come.

ever since I read Project Hail Mary, I always imagine that weird alien cheering for projects like this XDDD

she could just say exactly that. that as long as the user does not post here hurtful stuff, he won't be banned. the post up there which I reacted to, is the "who do you think you are to complain? just a non-paying customer, that's who" isn't a good enough reaction from a leader.

she is running a company based on users. their interaction, their attention, their time. if she doesn't make it profitable, that's on her. but antagonizing users... is just bad PR. it's not edgy, not honest, not "truth-teller" a la Kate Hudson in Glass onion.

just the ceo of bsky, casually reasoning why this site can do whatever. because. the user does not pay. in money.🙄so gtfo if you don't like something. neat.

this is the ceo of bsky? wow. where is your car and space rocket company? just since your role model is EM, do copy his level of diversification. you know, just in case you are not wanted at bsky, you should have a backup plan.
