The mystery of the Universe is its comprehensibility. Computational psycholinguist, I guess, but not a professional account. Opinions etc etc my own. he\him (pfp cc. Dustin Nguyen)

Students being able to receive the supports that will help them be successful is a good thing. The problem isn’t students gaming the system. The problem is a system that requires them to be labeled as having a disability to receive that support.

Academics Need to Wake Up on AI Ten theses for folks who haven't noticed the ground shifting under their feet

I'm not gonna touch most of this but two things:
1. The apprenticeship model of science was never supposed to be about the PI's workflow. The point isn't to have research assistants to help to publish stuff faster. Training the next generation researcher *is* the point. Because we care. Allegedly.

Ah but will it spit out cute numbers? And does it come with fancy formulas that hide all the theoretical commitments? Cuz THEN people will be interested πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚πŸ˜…

Nobody might care but yeah the goals of cognitive models cannot not just be β€œcorrelations are higher” SIGH

there are no β€œtheory neutral” models and if your modeling paper paper starts with that as an β€œadvantage” of your approach you have immediately lost me

Same exact experience (when I was 16 so who knows now). I’ve heard that the other books become a bit more creative/better written (similarly to WoT maybe) but could never bring myself to try them.

It’s really weird to read some people (USians ofc) online think Italy is some kind of progressive country just cuz a very selected crowd booed YouKnowWho at the Olympics. Please read like, half a paragraph about our current government, our immigration policies, etc etc etc πŸ™ƒ
