I remember reading a fairly in depth article that I cannot find...but some sources I'm able to ID at the moment that discuss the issue: https://freedom-to-tinker.com/2009/05/11/breathalyzer-source... ht

The academic and scholarly field you are referencing in your first paragraph is referred to as “information literacy“ We’re looking at this and students generally we look for the number of stages that need to be completed: Identification of

I didn’t say the comparison was necessarily valid or invalid. I said that evidence for and against you things can exist and should be brought when claims are made. The only comparison I am making is that virtually identical claims are made
846.
by avs733 6y ago
There should be research to support this argument. Has anyone found evidence for or against? Otherwise the claim here seems aspirational rather than useful. I know that the history of stadium deals, for example, this claim is nearly univers

Punishment does not work as a deterrent. I propose this as a demonstration by the system that it is willing to respond to violations of the rules by the system. Such violations are inherently more problematic.

This seems like a valid use of mandatory minimums to me. State actors should be subject to mandatory minimum life sentences for violating the rights of the public.

Well still arrest you but we aren’t going to prosecute you ...great...really wonderful representation of our justice systems focus on arresting people for literally no reason

that is actually a useful example for comparison. * The researcher is a professor in the humanities, which typically does not deal with human subjects research and the (often) vague and confusing boundaries. Often, people from outside the s

From the letter: > The IRB of UMN reviewed the study and determined that this is not human research (a formal IRB exempt letter was obtained). Throughout the study, we honestly did not think this is human research, so we did not apply f

Other note...different irbs treat not research vs exempt differently. One institution I worked with conflated “exempt” and “not human subjects research” and required the same review of both. Another institution separated them and would firs

Your extrapolation provides clear context about how this can harm people, which is within an irb purview and likely their ability to understand. I’m not saying it is okay, I’m simply saying how this could happen. It requires understanding t

It is absolutely my job, but I don’t necessarily have actionable information that I created a misunderstanding. I submit unclear thing Thing is approved Thing must have been clear right?

I agree with your last paragraph, although I can totally understand how somebody who doesn’t know much about programming or open source would see otherwise.

see my other comment to the GP. pulling the wool suggests agency and intentionality that isn't necessarily present when you have disciplinary differences like you describe. Simple miscommunication, e.g., using totally normal field ter

Not necessarily. And the conflation of IRB-exemption and not human subjects research is not exactly correct.[0] Each institution, and each IRB is made up of people and a set of policies. One does not have to meaningfully misrepresent things

I understand where this is coming from, and empathize with this but also empathize with the Kernel.org folx here. I think I'm okay with this because it isn't some government actor. It is not always easy to identify who works for w

It's really funny how their marketing and legal departments seem to say conflicting things almost as a prank.

Klarna, Revolut, and Hellofresh (German founding I believe) immediately pop to mind but I'm sure there are more if I did some searching. The recent trips to Europe I have been so intrigued by how different the apps people use for many

It is not Amazon's fault but there is nothing legally preventing them from doing better. That is a choice by Amazon. They offer worse health insurance for more money than I have available to me.

I love the label unskilled. I don't think most of my colleagues in academia could physically complete a shift in an Amazon warehouse. Is that a skill? The labels unskilled and entry level are used to depress wage expectations not accur
