When they fail, it won’t be their fault of course, it’ll be AI’s fault.

Great article.

Science publishing is central to the whole scientific endeavour, and should be governed in ways that avoid the pathologies described above. The current system poses risks to the credibility and integrity of the scientific endeavour, a crucially important issue when the proper functioning of science is so central to the whole range of human concerns. It is for these reasons that it is imperative to set acceptable standards for publishing, to identify and highlight anti-competitive activities by publishers, and to facilitate coordinated responses by institutions globally when they negotiate contracts with publishers

“Mad World” by Gary Jules.

But really you want to start off with “Take On Me” and “Never Gonna Give You Up”.

In 2011, Insane Clown Posse appeared on Attack of the Show! and repudiated claims that they were a Christian band.[163] Bruce explained that their Dark Carnival mythology “comes from the basic principle of right and wrong, you know. Evil and good. That’s all. We’re just trying to say that there’s bad guys out there and that there’s good guys out there […] We were taught there’s a heaven and a hell, but that’s all we were taught. We weren’t taught about the [Ten] Commandments [… or] what’s in the Bible and all that. We just […] want to see good people hopefully go to heaven, which we refer to as Shangri-La”.[163] Joseph Utsler explained in a 2002 interview with Craig Markley that “God is in your heart […] In my definition, it doesn’t matter what creed, religion, or group you belong to. If you’re doing what’s right and are a good person, then you’re right with God.”[164] Bruce and Utsler have also stated that they are not certain that God and the afterlife exist, but that they’d like to believe that there is something after death.[165]

In reality, they would be doing these things at midnight.

I assumed the toxic creature was Springer, not Intro to Statistics.

Those aren’t nipples, those are extra eggs that he carries around in case he needs a snack.

I’m not 100% sure, but I think it’s funny for the following reason:

Ordinarily you’d expect the strip to be like: panel 1 Jon says something trying to be funny, panel 2 Liz says something in reaction maybe riffing off it or gently deflecting, panel 3 Jon says something back and maybe Garfield thinks something wry.

But instead, in panel 2 Liz shoots him down hard and says she isn’t going to put up with his BS. Jon’s only possible move is a quick retreat. It’s a subversion of the reader’s expectations.

Yeah but then google will tell you to microwave your glue and eat it.

“He told me to tell you… He’s sorry you didn’t have bad memories of him?”

Might makes right, obv.

Because mice sin too.

These are all excellent communities, and invariably some of my favorite posts of the day. I’m seeing them on lemmy.world, btw.

[email protected] - mostly games, movies, shows, and music in the cyberpunk sci-fi genre

[email protected] - music: synthwave, vaporwave, etc. A fairly new community, a couple different people have been posting

[email protected] - music community. I was hoping someone else would make the 300th post, if not I’ll post something later today.

[email protected] - a larger community, a couple of us are posting regularly, but could use more discussion

[email protected] - a community about how to help grow the fediverse. @[email protected] has been posting a weekly thread on “how is your [niche] community doing?” which is kind of like a support group for people keeping communities alive

edit: how could I forget, [email protected] - links to short stories online in all genres
