Maybe in 2022 or early 2023. But it’s increasingly people who sign up because it pays well (archive.is link to bloomberg article, telegram link if you understand Russian).

Don’t give them ideas!

Ehm, while I appreciate the sentiment (as a properly deputized representative for all Germans), it may be not for nothing that the saying about not wanting to know how the sausage is made comes from Germany. Meat and sausages are veeery cheap here and while labor exploitation is certainly a big ingredient, I often wonder what the others are.

If you see Brad Pitt, better get off that train.

Step 1: politicians must pay for their own legal troubles

Step 2: “The Association of Totally Real Concerned Citizens” starts filing lawsuits across the country

Step 3: any non-billionaire elected to a political office is bankrupted within a year

Step 4: surprised yellow rodent face

(Bonus step 5: JB Pritzker becomes president and solves world hunger with deep dish pizza)

Edit: line breaks

Maybe it’s “Lichtjahr”? So as long as you stay within 3*10^15km of earth you should be fine 👍

Maybe this research and language is intended to suggest that there is a point past which “confusingly and unintuitively designed” strongly resembles “intentionally deceiving”? We’re probably not going to get internal emails saying “make it complicated so that we can collect users’ data”.

Also, researchers don’t really control how university press departments write up their results. Even less so when they’re interviewed by media.

Addendum: Apple takes great pride in UI and user-centered design, and lately they have been highlighting privacy as a differentiator from Android. Maybe they just dropped the ball, maybe people don’t care, maybe people aren’t very bright. Still, some people have questions:)

I thought have bought this was internet fake. It’s not:

Uraba lugens is nicknamed the mad hatterpillar because of its distinctive exoskeletal feature.[4] Every time it sheds the head portion of its exoskeleton, the exoskeleton stays attached to its body. Over time, developing through its life span, the head grows bigger and sheds increasingly larger exoskeleton shells, which build upon each other.[5]

Wikipedia entry

If you look at the Wikipedia entry for “age of criminal responsibility,” quite a few countries think that children under a certain age just plain cannot be held responsible for a crime. Of course, in the US it’s different and there are some states where age does exempt from responsibility and some where it doesn’t.

Has been happening to me on a non-Lenovo W10 desktop for the past few weeks.

Most people have asymmetric faces. It’s wild when you pay attention to it. Like somebody put two different halves together and went “sure that kinda works.”

Germany uses paper ballots. 60 million eligible voters, 3/4 actually voted during the last federal elections.

From noted Marxist-Leninist publication The Boston Globe? Right on

The authors wrote that they were surprised too and went back to talk to the students and apparently there was an unwritten rule that you don’t date the ex of the new partner of your ex. So if Bob and Alice split up and Alice starts dating Ben, then Bob should not date Ben’s ex Alison.

Removed by mod

Was that about the racism or about the cartoonish levels of lunacy and corruption? We got the racism covered and I’m sure we will give the rest a decent try soon. I, for one, look forward to the German regional and federal elections this year and next. I’m sure nothing bad will happen.

Woooooooooooosh

5 pages?!??! In my discipline, we spend five pages just kissing reviewer 2’s behind and begging people to take an interest. Then we spend 20 pages citing everyone and their adviser and their adviser’s second cousin on the off chance that they’re married to reviewer 2. Then you get a copy-paste of the documentation of one of the five datasets that everyone uses.

Auf den Zauberstab klicken, DOI eingeben, Magieeee. Man kann es mit Word, Latex, etc. kombinieren und damit sehr einfach zitieren. Aber die richtige Magie kommt ganz am Ende, wenn Zotero die Bibliografie von alleine erstellt und formatiert. Sollte deine Unibibo ein Zotero Tutorial anbieten, kann ich das nur empfehlen.

Ok those are really big things. For those really big intimidating things, I found Barbara Oakley’s book/lectures on procrastination quite helpful. I think they are on YT. They helped me get unstuck during my PhD. For the smaller recurring things, let me know if you find a good strategy :) When it’s non-life-changing fun stuff (e.g. music/drawing/crafts), I try to focus on the joy that I get out of even just dicking around instead of how I suck compared to Picasso.
