It’s not the same though, those are fictional characters. I know a real person made them, but still, it’s not the same

How do you define Tech bros? I lump them in Commerce category in my head.

Computer Science/Engineering people I have encountered are more into liberatory politics (whether they overtly acknowledge it/are awareof it or not)

I think Arts and Sciences folks need to team up and fuck up Commerce bros.

Not available on f droid yet it seems

iOS

I’m sorry but there likely never be a long-term alternative for free software such as this on that platform. Neither you nor the developer has much say on how to use it.

I think the aussie contestant is getting disproportionate amount of mockery (and even hate). It’s becoming borderline bullying

At least it’s not wrong

Now what was the cause of the bug? Fat fingering human error during release.

There isn’t a singular “the” cause usually, and if we do want to press for it, I’d say an aggressive deadline for a major product that needs engineers to slave away was the cause. At that point bugs become stastically inevitable. Whoever decided on that promised deadline was the first responsible person.

See, replication isn’t a problem if your entire field is vibes-based. A lot of economics papers I come across are like that (so much so that I am close to writing off the entire decipline as unscientific). The diff in the level of rigour you would see in e.g. particle physics versus in economics is baffling.

It used to be psychology as well but I am noticing they are more than aware of their replication crisis lately. Whereas economics feels pseudoscience with a maths clothing.

Black holes aren’t like magnets

Reputation comes from public, it requires collective action and coordination. Collective action is not easy, but it is not as hard it might seem either. For example, many open source projects in software are highly reputable without a private ownership.

In 2024 using linux is far less cognitively demanding than using windows

Thanks!

SNe?

I finished it just there. First chapter and bits of later chapter are great, but unfortunately the rest of the book is poorly sourced. For a book with “science” in title, I was expecting more rigour.

Currently reading “The Science of Storytelling” by Will Storr, it is quite good so far!

I would put philosophy in leftmost

Microsoft is magnitudes worse than google.

How are you on lemmy, of all places
