Labor gaining just the tiniest amount of power relative to capital a few years back absolutely broke employers' brains

Zur Belustigung hier eine neue spannende Stellenanzeige mit geiler Pointe am Schluss. Wer Den Vortrag von @xahteiwi zu Stellenanzeigen nicht kennt und in Führungspositionen ist: angucken! https://media.ccc.de/v/froscon2025-3321-es_es_ka_em_warum_gute_leute_nicht_bei_euch_arbeiten_wollen

P value this, s value that. Just stop coping already and face the probability.

when you call console.log() this is what happens

Remember: the LLM didn't do the work as long as you manually type out everything it gave you. You know, just like you did with Stackoverflow.

It appears some people's version of slow science is letting LLMs write everything while taking in nice beverages.

We have the same effect size. Yet, yours is small. Mine is large. We are not the same.

I get the feeling that "the students" are an entity that, to academics, is similar to what "the children" are to politicians.

I remember when there was a discussion on Twitter about Shein's manufacturing practices and some apologists invented all sorts of fantastical machinery and technology to avoid facing the more horrifying truth. Reminds me of this comedian's joke. IG bscomedian

Luckily, you don't need to choose b/c you can use them both! The framing of "p value bad"/"CI good" means that some people never really get that they're based on the same information & the same basic stat. philosophy (some of these points are made here: richarddmorey.medium.com/power-and-pr...)

This. Claiming objectivity by using "frequentist methods" is lying to yourself. To be clear: use whatever you want, as long as you do it to the best of your ability. But don't think you can ever eliminate subjectivity, That's never gonna happen.

Didn't know recycling waste into candy was a viable business model but here we are I guess

They should do a SAT for US presidents but just with basic shit like "On day 1, an apple costs 1 dollar. The following day the price goes up 100%. On day 3, the price drops 50% and then stays stable until day 5. How much is the apple on day 4?". You fail, you don't get to be president.

What i hate about usernames is their randomness. You see an account called "cumguzzler69" who turns out to be a world renowned entomologist while the account called "insect-knowledge" most likely is an actual roach.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Bwahaha.

ok this is what a bunch of sesame street characters would look like without their fur

American big media is dogshit with different kinds of sprinkles, it appears.

This is not intended to bash Peter, but fuck LinkedIn and burn it to the ground. This platform has actively enshittified work culture and is a hotbed of performative posting. I do not want another big tech firm (Microsoft) defining academic performance metrics. It's bad enough we have h-index.

"Why did they arrest you on your way to work?" "You see, I was on the train, very close to my destination, and needed to get off at the next stop. So I left the train and started wanking"

Did positive psychology die already? Curious.

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back! Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary. Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest! #MundaneHalloween

What a job. I'd stop before tryin those opiates though.

11YO came into our bed at 5am like “look, I liked Alien but it didn’t scare me, and the alien from Alien doesn’t scare me, but I had a dream where one was here, and like, what’s the plan? If one was outside the window right now what would we do?”

I should’ve learned this by now but DO NOT use FedEx. The diseased monkeys I ordered haven’t arrived and I can’t get a straight answer on what happened to them

R devs need more rich oil daddies!

Nature, Bitch!

Showing basic decency is brave now or something.

We really need to stop commoditising everything. Life is short, but you cashing in on your hobby will not make it better or "worth more". Fuck around, find out, have a blast doing so (most of the time, anyway). Embrace the short time you have instead of dreading its limited frame.

Monster thread. But good.

Saying AI "lies" is dumb because it implies an AI somehow has agency. It does not. It cannot choose its own answers.

I'm sure that the Epstein Ballroom will be tasteful.

Once again I learned: "that doesn't exist" or "that's impossible" mostly means "I don't want to" in German academia.

Slack is down, people. You're free.

Using apple products for privacy is like buying food from a garbage dump and hoping the garbage company doesn't decide to tell anyone.

Incredible. I want this to be true.
