- tempodox 8y agoIndeed, he should have attached ©, ®, and ™ to that phrase.
- typomatic 8y agoYour suggestion is that someone who did a degree specifically in machine learning at Harvard would be less likely to be defending their discipline out of a sense of ego?
- stonogo 8y agoNot merely a suggestion; I'm stating outright that when someone's career (both the value of an acquired scholarly degree and the earned income within the field) depends on a field being regarded as a valid specialization, that person is going to put effort into reinforcing that perceived validity.
- typomatic 8y agoOh okay! I thought you were suggesting the opposite (which is nonsense). Thanks!
