In what country? I saw them in Germany decades ago, but I haven’t seen one in Australia yet
- Comment on Is there a name for the trope where a story is high fantasy at first glance, except for it's not fantasy and is actually set in a post-apocalypse dystopian future? 4 weeks ago:
Pity, 'cause it’s a great question, and a great trope. I can think of a few good examples. Maybe it’s time to start a TVTropes account and get editing.

I didn’t know what it was, so I looked it up. Their description is here:

It sounds interesting… It also sounds like it will fail, because Mozilla seems to think that trackers are primarily interested in collecting ad stats, and that targeted advertising is less critical, but I think in reality it’s the other way around, and advertisers won’t accept such a limited solution.

Rueben Bolling’s comics are nearly always just as on-point as this. Well worth following.

The backlog at my old job was a solid couple of years long. Probably a decade if you included all the non-critical stuff
- Comment on Academic writing 1 month ago:
I think any scientist should able to convey at least the high level concepts that they’re working on at the level that a smart 12th-grader can follow. If you can’t do that, I think that’s a sign that you’re probably not thinking about your work very clearly. Being able to distill things and context-switch back to a birds-eye view of your work is critical for knowing what direction you’re heading in.
(I say this from the perspective of a climate scientist - our field has a pretty active public/lay conversation and lots of science comma, but I think the concept still applies to other sciences, and social sciences.)

In a strikingly similar way, one should not have to toe the party line.

Milloy has been spouting denial for decades, but this might be the dumbest thing I’ve seen him say yet.
