I was in the theater group in school - and learned a lot about myself there. I broke down crying when playing the Andri in Andorra as it was maybe too near to my personal experience being bullied, being the outsider, being seen for somethin

I am too far out of the city for biking to work practically. But my current bike costs less than a yearly commuter pass. So I really appreciated your perspective shift. Because if I were to use the bike to go into the office I wouldn't

Oh this brought back memories. I remember playing Sim Ant on my Macintosh Classic for hours on end. The same look and feel. Just that I had a b/w screen. What a great way to have a throwback Monday.

Same experience here with the German DPA. Bias starts at the selection stage. Every editor selecting what is important to them or what they think is important to the readers of the media that has a DPA feed subscription. Then when doing a w

If I look at it cynically from a strategic position this is probably why it is done. Hit the civilians so that they go to the streets against Putin. That's probably the idea. I just know of no case where this had worked (but I might ju

Victims on all sides. 'In war people who don't know each other kill each other on orders of people who know each other but don't kill each other.' I can't quote my SO enough with this saying. While I am also still t

As much as I would like to agree with parts of your argument, I find it difficult. Maybe because I grew up in Germany and near the Iron Curtain to be more precise. There is an alternative, as a company can either be organized around values

Personally I find your argument disingenuous at best. > We find sites [...] that are not looking to get paid [...]. So basically what you are saying is that you are looking for free real estate for hidden advertising. You get paid by you

I recently wanted to buy a Bluetooth speaker for my mom. From experience I was looking for a small Bose speaker. It wasn't available. They recommended a Sonos alternative. I looked at the packaging. The price was only slightly below th

Evaluating the quality of a source was one of the most difficult and also most important skills we were taught in university. Do I still get it wrong. Oh dear, yes. Did I learn how important it was? Oh yes. I especially learned to qualify w

Why should I censor myself just because there are extremists out there? I actually despise these trigger warnings and cancel culture of cultural pieces just because the author was a misogynistic idiot (or anti semite, or proponent of slaver

I am in demand now as a data analyst. But I did that already in my first jobs after college. I was able to get by on working as a bartender while looking for a job. I had fun doing it and little cost of living. Why should I have sacrificed

They could see the evidence and remove the contested source. In this case they would remove a part from the entry. People wouldn't learn falsehoods. I think this would at least be better than knowingly spreading fake knowledge. I would

Thanks. Exactly my thought on a valid approach. One not taken by this person in this case.
650.
by sdoering 5y ago
I agree. They could however remove the wrong parts. This way they would not have the user need to trust unverifiable claims but also protect the user from learning falsehoods.

Yeah I could do this. But I could also just accept the fact that Wikipedia isn't even willing to delete contested information when offered proof. I don't need the facts to be in the entry. I don't care. I only care about the

As I have just written in another comment: But they were already wrong in the cited source and we had the original documents to proof that. He just wasn't willing to look at them. To add to that - the source is a digitized out of print

I think overall the wikipedia model has shown itself to be decently working. But (anecdata) I have my gripes with the way it handles evidence. My SO has a person (died already) in her family with a (relatively) short wikipedia entry. There

I disagree. I happily include my personal site with quite some controversial articles (being my opinion at that time) on it in my resume. It works as a great filter for companies I wouldn't want to work for.

I know. TiSAX (automotive industry requirements standard) forces much of this onto us (just to name one example). And if I am not mistaken even ISO27001 requires this to be compliant/certified.

I agree. We (regular employees and even our Management) have no idea what Accenture meant when the leadership mentioned that they intend to care for these people. We all hope to receive more clarification on that part. Personally I might un

Same here. 5 weeks ago I started to go to the pool 2 - 3daxs a week to do some 25 meter lanes before I start my work day. I already lost weight (nice side effect) and am more productive on these days. And I have the feeling I may have found
