I thought the swiss people seemed sometimes kinda "rude"or maybe a better word for it “cold” and a little annoyed

I have some Swiss-American relatives, and I think this is cultural. They just have a different set of indicators, they’re not going to be grinning and hugging.

I have a friend who went to London and just ate at Whole Foods all the time. So, vegans can survive.

“smoke copium, non-resident”?

visiting a neat-sounding community and realizing all the posts are by the single moderator (and are getting less and less frequent).

This will be a key moment towards Lemmy’s growth or decline. Especially in non-tech/meme/politics communities, it’s so easy for the only poster be a single person who is posting daily, and who then simply runs out of content. Maybe the solution is for each frequent poster to post non-daily on several different communities. Anyway, check out !fedigrow@lemm.ee, @Blaze@reddthat.com has started posting a weekly thread on “How is your niche community doing?”

Make sure you listen to Eye of the Tiger: 30 minute intro while watching that.

most high profile labs have all had to deal with this nonsense.

It’s even worse for low profile labs because those publication fees eat up a greater proportion of our budget.

There are a couple things we can do:

• decline to review for the big journals. why give them free labor? Do academic service in other ways.
• if you’re organizing a workshop or conference, put the papers online for free. If you’re just participating and not organizing, then suggest they put the papers online for free. Here’s an example: https://aclanthology.org/ If that’s too time-consuming, use: https://arxiv.org/

Agreed, if you didn’t publish parts of your dissertation before or after completion, then your advisor wasn’t really doing their job.

“Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realize we cannot eat a machine learning algorithm.” - traditional Native American saying.

I think many people see it as normal/expected.

Yes, that’s it. People born in the early part of last century (my grandparent’s era) only knew over-the-air TV which in the US included commercials. It was just part of reality, like billboards by the highway.

“And if I’m NOT elected, I’ll be EVEN MORE carniverous!!!”

You’re right. We gotta do something.

Absolutely.

You know what we gotta do?

Toga party.

Yeah but you’re right.

MMFCL!

Meaning you dance with a partner. I do not have a very much experience with it (about 16 lessons, with half of them being repeats). I go there with some people I know, but am not all too well acquainted with.

• Assume you are the least experienced dancer of your acquaintance group.
• Select the second-least experienced dancer of that group. That person will accept because they’ll look good by comparison.
• Have fun just trying out the basics with them and laughing about it.

I get what the meme is saying, but community colleges don’t really need research scholars, they need great teachers with industry experience.

A viable option is to take the industry job, and then teach a class or two a year. Also, you can make connections at those community colleges and regional schools and advertise your internships and job postings.

One of Frederic Remington’s masterpieces, this painting depicts cowboys hiding in a waterhole, their source of survival in the arid desert and of protection from the pursuing Plains Indians. The manipulated perspective gives the scene a panoramic quality and introduces a large shadow to convey the idea of “passing”—the ever-present threat of death looming in the Western territories during the Indian Wars, as well as the passing of the West itself.
