Notice how the study conveniently cuts off right before the meat grinder that is the Russia Ukraine war started. I’d imagine the methodology of the study disproves the conclusion they made if you don’t cherrypick the data. I wonder who would benefit from doing an obviously bunk study to convince people think that sanctions are worse than wars?
I think thats just called crying alone in your room
I think they might be contrapositives. To me, redneck engineering roughly means “surprisingly good and durable solution made in spite of limited materials and or knowledge” where kludge roughly means “surprisingly shit solution barely good enough to work 1 or 2 times despite having the money/ability to produce a much better solution.”
Blud sequestering themselves from men is literally the stated goal of that kind of community. So… yeah? If people want to be sequestered that does involve sequestering themselves somewhere. Maybe if you feel like those kind of places are hard to find you should engage in some praxis and spread the word about them rather than crying at me because I feel othered by a “no men allowed” sign planted in a public forum. Wanting a safe space is valid. Trying to force people you dont like out of an open space to create that safe space is not valid.
Well, I had a grocery list before I looked at lemmy today. Now I have a grocery list with “French fries and poblanos” hastily scribbled at the bottom of it
I dont have a ton of respect for people making or enforcing exclusionary spaces on public message boards like that. If they really wanted a separate safe space they’d have something like beehaw with moderated sign-ups and a closed door policy to people who dont go through the verification. I dont care about it enough to argue and I go with a “block and let live” strategy regarding those kind of places, but im also not about to spend time or energy policing myself beyond the aforementioned “on topic, dont be a dick” because a bunch of people intentionally chose the wrong hosting tool for an exclusionary community so they can (in my opinion) performatively other people they dont like in a public space.
Bro I’d be losing my shit if my water bottle stared into my soul every time I took a drink
If I’m making a post I make sure it’s relevant to the community I’m posting to, but just commenting on posts that show up in my feed I dont bother most of the time. Most message board rules boil down to “stay roughly on topic and dont be a dick to the other people here” anyway; you probably dont need to know most message board rules if youre adhering to that.
You could try running tails on your laptop. Nothing guarantees resting privacy like removable boot media
Yeah turns out two years of above inflation pay rises dont make up for 40 or 50 years of wage stagnation. Fucking wankers
I just block that community. Not like out of malice or anything but it prevents me from commenting on a post without looking at the comm name. I try to make a habit of not spending time in places where I am not welcome
Whenever the cats that have been in my life are doing dangerous stuff like that I hiss at them and chase them off. It’s very effective at getting them to stop trying to kill themselves and it doesn’t seem to upset them longterm
In any quantity? Some nutritionally complete food that avoids as many allergens as possible. Probably some kind of fortified legume and veggie paste. With that kind of magical power, I’d be looking to slay one of the horsemen of the apocalypse
In seriousness, a lot of particle physics has to do with smashing shit together really really hard and then studying what comes out. If I am for instance trying to observe a k meson, the way I’d do that is to accelerate a bunch of gold nuclei up to 10 or 12 TeV (i dont remember how fast that is in m/s; some small fraction of the speed of light), smash those gold nuclei into eachother, then look at the spray of particles that comes out. The expected products of a collision like that are heavily dependent on what you started with before any smashing occurs, so particle physicists do tend to care pretty significantly about macro molecules like metal. Mostly because of their decay products, but the metal is important
I never got this. The people in my life who call themselves sluts are some of the warmest most caring people in my life. I have to remember not to call people slut as a compliment most of the time because of the people I know who choose that title for themselves
American Academia is run by a bunch of feckless cowards who worship hierarchy. You know what you call a scientist who works for nazis because thats the only way to get funding? A fucking nazi scientist. Idk why people are even remotely surprised about US academics being fascists after the way the Palestine protests were handled. Any of yall who are grad students already know its a fucking scam to get 4-7 years of knowledge work out of you for 30k/yr.
Clearly. If we were he’d be advised to hit facebook, delete the lawyer, and hire a gym too
You went further than I did haha. I formed my opinion after reading the title of post and the “Between 2010 and 2021” at the beginning of the preview, then skimmed the article to see if I was off base. I’ve spent enough of my life trying to get/maintain grant funding from fascists to know what it means when the data is that blatantly cherrypicked.
