Zatar kannte ich noch gar nicht, klingt interessant!

Was suchst du denn, das so selten ist?

Starting tomorrow, you can watch fish traffic via an underwater camera livestreaming from an Utrecht canal. If you spot waiting 🐟, you can ping an operator to open the Weerdsluis lock gate & let them through. Highly recommend this for easing elevated stress levels, or if you just like helping fish

"Two things can be true at the same time" is something hard to comprehend for most people, apparently.

Given the opacity of the North Sea (and the channel in particular), I doubt you'd see much tbh.

I think the way to do this best is to create a monopoly for the state. I'm quite frankly fine with gambling if it's regulated well, support structures are present for addiction, and the money people throw into the fire gets back to society somehow instead of fueling obscure investors.

Unfortunately for y'all I'm in that club as well

Social media was a mistake.

Fields don't talk to each other. Even in HCI, which essentially is CS/psych fusion it's hard to facilitate interdisciplinary research. It's a practical observation, not a general statement.

There's not much anyone can do there, at least if they have the tech-literacy of an average psychologist tbh.

Das was sie jeden Tag machen: Ihre Wähler im Stich lassen.

Leider hat dieser Typ Mann irgendwie Kinder bekommen, die jetzt auf Tiktok Manosphere Posts feiern.

Nowadays, the good days are defined by me seeing some utterly moronic garbage in my feed and consciously not engaging.

If there was a pill that would enable you to score higher on an IQ test, but with yet unknown (but non-lethal!) side-effects, what would the increase in IQ need to be for you to take it? Or would you refuse it?

Did you turn it off and on again and it worked?

i’m sorry but you can’t just name a weather event “bombogenesis”

This broke me

I dedicated my master's thesis to a literal techno dj these people need to chill tf out.

We are part of the silent majority, never forget

This is my code, except i use base pipes. I'm proud of that.

This is also why writing functions to process stuff is better than just scripting out all the steps.

People find a way to overanalyse everything and I hate it with a passion.

There's soscisurvey, has good customization options, albeit with a bit old-ish UI for people creating the surveys (but not too bad).
Lime survey also exists, but I hate the interface and options personally.

The reason why many academic work environments suck ass. If you want to improve the academy real quick, force tenure track personnel to attend management and leadership education.

That's like saying new piano day (technically a xylophone)

Being a feminist means asking every dude who wants me to fuck their wife to refer me to their wife for that and it's exhausting.

I'm glad most of my field isn't aware moderation exists, let's leave it at that.
