This also explains most cases in which humans are "right."
Nevertheless, I want to register for the record my general approval of your pop-culture commentary.
I don't do academic philosophy these days but every now and then it occurs to me how virtually absurd it is that the British empiricists were epistemological Cartesian's while Descartes was basically a Baconian empiricist. Given the established narrative, where do you even start with that.
- I'm the best scorer in soccer.
- You're not making any goals.
- Yes, but that's because the goalkeeper keeps catching the ball!
We need to talk about how the Scientific Revolution, the Enlightenment, and liberalism are one historical thread, and all the ways in which conservatism is incompatible with modern scientific inquiry. There is no reason to think science can function at all in the Heritage Foundation's dream society.
Are you highlighting #OpenScience activities in your CV, or know someone who does? I am looking for examples to include (of course in anonymized form) as examples in a book chapter. For example, I once came across a CV with small open science badges and would love to include this!
This is the absolute worst.
"But the Justice Department, even as it acknowledged the mistake, said it could not use diplomacy or financial pressures to free Abrego because it would threaten U.S. foreign policy and its relationship with an ally in the fight against gangs."
I walked around the campus just last summer. Vilnius (also Kaunas) are great places to visit.
From Riddley Walker by Russell Hoban. Mood.
"Then thay dogs begun tu tel uv tym tu cum. Thay sed, The lan wil dy & thay peapl wil eat 1 a nuther. The water wil be poysen & the peapl wil drink blud."
A great report on changing attitudes toward migration in Sweden, with insights transposable to much of the Western world.
Thanks, these are great guiding questions. It's interesting to view them from a European perspective. There's a lot of overlap with our data management plans. Some of the answers are governed by laws, some by EU or local government directives.
Before C#, there was Sharp Basic.
Very cool, congrats!
Very cool effect, but your brain is right--they are not the same color. There are two surfaces there that have the same color values in the bitmap, but given the implied lighting conditions that means the blocks are different colors, just as your brain is telling you.
New liar paradox incoming (WP).
I've said it before. We need to find ways of creating, protecting, and make available AI models that are not trained to spout right-wing lies and propaganda. This could become extremely important very soon. Believe me when I say Musk and his ilk want to get their hands on OpenAI.
Knut Ståhlberg, Paris correspondent for Swedish Radio, said in an interview about his life, "Your days are filled with work, and then at some point you might realize, 'I'm happy.' So what?"
I've never understood exactly what he meant by that, but it's stuck in my mind. :-)
Klassiker med den bilden. 😄
At least this won't endear him to Putin.
Since "white," "heterosexual," "man" are not on the Trump administration's list, if they want to achieve their goals they probably need to also ban "not."
Don't forget his aunt Caroline on the 16th. Her autobiography is on gutenberg.org and reads like it should have been a Terry Gilliam movie.
I for one am very interested in how Schleswig-Holstein is coming along with their project to move 30,000 state employees to a 100% open source environment. Hopefully more will follow, and the more do, the more shared resources there will be for solving problems along the way.
Yesterday I removed my last Windows installation on a private computer. Now it's
Linux - 6
Windows - 0.
Information sovereignty is important to me personally, and should be a priority to all European institutions, especially considering the current political climate. ->
The US--now "West Russia" in the mouths of some friends here.
Not sure those signs were a good idea.
(It's okay to not like this post. I don't like it either.)
An when we're done, we all get a big fat Marshall Plan from China.
The End
But in this civil war, one side is supported by Mexico, Canada, some European nations and perhaps Japan--and the other side is supported by Russia and North Korea. After having been protected by two oceans for centuries, North America becomes the battleground for WWIII. ->
