I’ve seen this narrative start to pop up a lot attacking “the left” about the Ukraine situation. The odd part is I have yet to say anyone saying the things that they are told they should stop saying. This all seems like a really aggressive

I have always found the focus on the sociological somewhat hollow...and I am involved in sociological research on education (engineering specifically). The problem, and the reason for the focus, is that the sociological and the philosophica

It's telling that so little of this conversation is conscious of who does and does not have access to 'a cashless society' and the myriad of ways the poor and working class are abused by it. Digital Jail? Seriously? Show me t

I would agree with you but they are speaking to a different audience. This is in a journal for statistics researchers and theorists. These would all be things that would inform the creation of pragmatic tools like SPC.

I would argue it isn't. I love that graphic (I use it in classes frequently) but it's limiting here. Accuracy is about how close to the underlying behavior that is being modeled is. In this case, the goal is modeling the controlle

While I understand the lens this is coming from, I don’t think it’s realistic. Faculty, in general, don’t operate as a team like in a more traditional business. One or two or five might collaborate on a project but they typically operate ve

I don't think that is a Spain only problem. As an American, that speaks to me of how most government and corporate systems operate. They are actively detrimental to helping people in need and do a terrible job of preventing fraud. Here
