Exactly my experience. Often the professors held us undergraduates in open contempt. One in particular said straight up on the first day, “I do not like teaching. I am required to do this in order to do the research I want to do.” I guess I

This was a better comment than your original sarcastic comment - the internet’s got enough vitriol, please don’t add to it.

The article mentions that the parasites are treated if they infect the blood or liver… So I guess they are monitoring the vaccinated closely. Honestly sounds a bit touchy.

That’s the only interpretation that at least makes some kind of sense. Not that I agree with it. Signal and iMessage have way more in common than they do differently, but at least it’s a coherent sentence.

Ah, ok. Sorry I assumed sarcasm because your summary was super short and, in my opinion, kind of missed the point of the article. A better summary might be: There was no silver bullet that fixed everything, rather a vigorous campaign of tea

See though, this is kind of the problem right here. Doing everything right is super rote and boring and apparently deserves your mocking commentary. Whereas doing things wrong (or taking advantage of other people who do things wrong), well

If someone without context had walked into the room and heard him say “spoon me”, they’d likely think something very different were going on. “Spoon” as a verb usually means something like “cuddle me” - as in “let’s be like spoons and fit a

The first 1/3 of the article explains their historical motivation for this approach and specifically why this was a breakthrough for teaching. Names can matter. And from a more practical standpoint, RSpec is now much more than just a d

Eh, feels pretty different. HN’s ban was intentionally a short term reboot/cooldown, during a particularly hot time - not a broad and indefinite ban. Society is hard. I think it’s good to experiment, and when you’re explicit about a ti

That’s a fair question about proportionality. I don’t have any special insight into the kernel team, but I think the response is as much about making an example of the university as it is about removing any plausibly contaminated commits, i

Yes, I do know that. The policy is not about them being physically prevented from emailing from not-a-umn-researcher@yahoo.com. It’s a symbolic policy, but I would be extremely surprised if a university flouted a clear and explicit ban on t

Really? I unequivocally think it was unethical research, and thus a mistake. But what’s the appropriate proportional response? I honestly have a hard time thinking firing a bunch of people over this would be a good outcome for anyone. What’

It’s not so much that they banned umn email, as it is they banned the university of Minnesota. This particular act is about avoiding the risk of researchers wasting kernel developers time. As evinced by the response, it seems really unlikel

I already require manual intervention via a bot interaction to trigger CI, so this all SGTM. It seems like kind of a stretch to be outraged by this. I suppose there might be certain styles of collaborative repositories that have a huge volu

...maaaayyyyybe. But on the other hand, it makes it less likely that crypto miners will bother opening up junk PRs against your repo. So you save some time there.

For one, it’s a way of punishing the university. Eg - If you want to do kernel related research, don’t go to the university of Minnesota.

Sorry anything is possible, but your comment is a bit hand wavy. Reproducible builds are non trivial. And then what - the reviewer is now supposed to build your software and verify some Hash? Or were you thinking something else?

What is accreditation for? Do you think you’ll be more likely to get a job from having this accreditation? My personal path hasnt shown that to be true, but maybe I’m the odd duck.

Interesting. I wonder how this plays out in practice - what choices people tend to make. I wonder if there are politics for people who take more cash and less stock - does mgmt assume it implies less good will, since the employee is literal
