Do you not see the logical link by which these more general studies contextualize and support my earlier statements?
At least partly. When I was starting out, I would apply to dev positions only to get offers to interview for lower-paid QA positions. After changing to a gender-neutral nickname and removing all female-identifying terms…
I was just about to comment about this because his description is textbook ADHD in girls.
Absolutely true. I am especially amazed by the confidence with which they present their claims.
It is an obvious pattern known to anyone who visited or attended Eastern European or Middle Eastern universities. Here is an example I saw recently: Khalifa University in Abu Dhabi is a STEM research-focused university…
The author is a man. This is an article sharing his experiences driving drunk people very late at night, which tend to be older men because women and younger men tend to leave earlier. I do not see this article as an…
Topological materials are relatively new and increasingly promising for both technological and pure science reasons.
...it saddens me how true that is given the last few years. I still like to think most people are capable of a deeper level of understanding.
The problem with models like GPT-3 is that they are unable to differentiate between information sources with different "trustworthiness." They learn conspiracies and wrong claims and repeat them. It's possible to feed…
I'm also curious, what has Title IX got to do with the rest? It has nothing to do with churches, does it?
I'm pleasantly surprised that these sculptures survived the centuries of intentional destruction of such artifacts in the region. The scratched(?) graffiti is disappointing though.
The point is, in middle eastern societies, the realities of working in STEM don't impact the choices women make for their college majors as much. Most of them go to college before marriage with the expectation of not…
Libby also works with many other libraries around the world and a bunch of them allow signing up for an account online. For example, Abu Dhabi Department of Culture and Tourism has a nice collection and they only…
It's unfair to demand all costs from content generation to hosting to be borne by the "owners." For the web to work better, we need more aligned incentives, not to disregard the understandable demand of creators of…
Most of physics is not a great counter-example to learning by invention. There are several ways to derive Newton's three laws. It's a fun exercise in Lagrangian mechanics. Perhaps quantization or the curvature of space…
I think we differ in what we consider "justification." It seems to me that you are using the moral judgement of the sacrifice of perfect-pretty-code while I am considering the business-operations evaluation. For a…
The complexity of many applications does not come from the client-facing features but rather from other business requirements. For example, interaction analytics, A/B testing support, targeted updates, predictive…
Length of PhD programs is an indicator that should be considered in context. UK Universities, for example, often have research PhD programs that take 3 years to complete and they are legitimate.
We still have many programmers whose entire programming work is customizing WordPress/Drupal themes so I don't doubt it.
XD stands for eXperience Design but I like the emoticon interpretation.
These devs don't need to. As long as they get work done, create `value', their skills are sufficient. Admittedly, there are times when people who know better are needed for specific tasks and that's why we are paid…
