- Comment on Palestine Action victory leaves cops and Cooper in a proper dilemma 1 week ago:
He granted Huda Ammori leave to bring a full judicial review on the basis that it is arguable that:
1. The order is a disproportionate interference with Articles 10 and 11 of European Convention on Human Rights [the rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly]; and that
2. Yvette Cooper, the Home Secretary, breached the duty to consult, by failing to consult either Palestine Action or civil liberties organisations on the impact of the order, while consulting with representatives from the Israeli Government and Elbit Systems the leading supplier of weapons to the Israeli Government.

Yeah it’s kind of like the psychological advice to let go of things you can’t control. That’s fine when it’s your annoying boss (within limits) but not fine when it’s mass kidnappings.
- Comment on A few people are ruining the internet for the rest of us 4 weeks ago:
In a recent series of experiments, we paid people a few dollars to unfollow the most divisive political accounts on X. After a month, they reported feeling 23% less animosity towards other political groups. In fact, their experience was so positive that nearly half the people declined to refollow those hostile accounts after the study was over. And those who maintain their healthier newsfeed reported less animosity a full 11 months after the study.
Found this bit interesting

The chart is on a page discussing this:
My workplace is NSF funded and supports a number of activities designed to increase interest in the discipline among young kids or improve teaching techniques for k-12 teachers. Similarly, we run an REU (Research Experiences for Undergraduates) program to give undergraduate students exposure to hands on research (and hopefully encourage them to stay in the discipline for graduate school).
A majority of our funding still goes to PhDs doing fundamental research, but the pipeline that feeds academic research begins with children, and research funding priorities aren’t blind to that.

Regular coffee/espresso does nothing good to my body except make me poop immediately.

- Comment on 5 Reasons Why Mickey 17 Flopped At The Box Office - SlashFilm 4 months ago:
Sucks that the author of the article’s takeaway is basically “don’t do original non-franchise films.” I thought
Tap for spoiler
Mickey 17 captured the unique narration tone of Mickey7 but left something on the table when it came to 7s relationship with 8–they were supposed to have essentially the same personality. Also was annoyed with Pattinson’s voice. Whole thing suffered from lack of focus, adding the preacher angle in was unnecessary and not comical, and the plots were not well woven.
