Could you share an example ? These conversations on AI code good, vs AI code bad constantly keep cropping up. I feel we need to build a cultural norm to share examples places of succeeded, and failures, so that we can get to some sort of co

People care. The state isn’t the only source of funds, and researchers are in it to do research. PHDs make little money, and getting into academia is not generally considered a good career path. The only people who can’t get fired are the f

The elites have had power for the largest span of our history. Correlation here is not causation. By that same criteria, elites have been responsible for the grandest acts of destruction and waste as well. But I suppose someone may want to

I am against this reading of hopefulness. It creates a narrative of momentum, which is necessary to not be overwhelmed by the situations we face, but it’s no longer viable to ignore it. As just one sign - Academics in environmental science

This is reading the past and forgetting the forces active since WW2 and the 1960s. We do NOT live in those times, and the edifices propped up and successful in Europe and America, well and truly wish to undermine those protections. It takes

If someone hasn’t done the legwork why should they be in the same arena ? We don’t put NBA professionals in the same league as newbies. Expertise in this case isn’t cheaply earned. It’s the top of a pyramid of intellectual effort.

Ugh. I feel bad sharing this, because I am a proponent of Remote. https://news.stanford.edu/stories/2024/06/hybrid-work-is-a-w... this should have a link. Also a correction - it showed increased retention rat

Yes, second the desire for the video. Tribalism coming to the Dems is taking FAR too long. People recognize that tribalism is working for the Republicans, so it’s natural that they are going to eventually imitated the winning strategy. Seri

Progressives needed to show up at the polls as a bloc. Unfortunately, there is a pervasive belief that this is a symmetric game between Dems and Republicans. This belief gives people a reason to expect that their protest is recognized, wit

The GoP does not need to make things work. One of its pillars has been to ensure a hamstrung government, and take a position that government is ineffective. Any time the other party comes to power, they are unable to make significant change
