I believe there are some more legit questions re: studies he conducted or referenced.
I just don't trust THAT analysis from a person who thinks that citation typos are also a problem.
I would have to see a third party do it or do it myself and I am just a tired librarian who doesn't rely on this guy for stuff except some old videos for form with new exercises so I can't be bothered.

Someone recently did a "gotcha" style "deep dive" on his dissertation being like "omg this is not good."
... and I'll be real, I don't have time or energy for all that, even as a rubbernecker.
HOWEVER.
Some of the errors I've seen pointed out were shitty citation formatting?
Like, friends. Dissertations are a shitshow. They are not beautiful. They are edited by students who are 10000x over looking at them ever again.

La "démarche NIRD" a été lancée à la rentrée par un collectif enseignant pour inviter les établissements scolaires à s'engager vers un numérique plus inclusif, responsable et durable (ce qui passe par installer du Linux dans leur parc).
https://nird.forge.apps.education.fr/
17 établissements pilotes en font déja partie.

Dont le collège des 7 Vallées à Hesdin-la-Forêt où collégiennes et collégiens reconditionnent des PC sous PrimTux pour les offrir ensuite à une école voisine.

I have to do some React for work and so far I don't hate it. Reading about the surprisingly simple implementation of useState is giving me some ideas for a reactive UI framework for my permacomputing project.

New: The University of Pennsylvania has confirmed a data breach after last week's cyberattack that saw a hacker mass-email thousands of students, staff and alumni saying, "We were hacked."

@pluralistic The NY post is at it really heavy today. This is just the beginning of the smears. Recall all the crap the bigots tried to trash Obama with. It's going to be 3 times that with Mamdani.

50 años ya desde que el sucesor de Franco (AKA el Campechano) aprovechando que el hijo de Don Claudio (AKA El Claudillo) estaba ya en las últimas, rubricó el acuerdo de traición al pueblo saharaui, al que previamente le había prometido la independencia, vendiendo el territorio a "su primo" el rey de Marruecos y a Mauritania.
Años más tarde, Mauritania denunció ese tratado. Según la ley internacional, si Ejpaññña con eñññe lo denunciara también, el tratado perdería validez, el Sáhara volvería a ser colonia española y al día siguiente se le podría conceder la independencia.
Pero no; seguimos en manos de traidores y servidumbre a la tiránica monarquía marroquí.
Desafiemos al olvido, apoyemos a nuestres hermanes saharauis porque se lo debemos. Sáhara libre. Es de justicia.

Why doesn’t anyone travel anymore?
The booking experience is enshittified. Flying is fucking awful right now. Tickets are expensive. Changes to reservations require wading through AI agent hell.
Y’all, I traveled a lot about ten years ago. I booked shit last minute on my phone in pubs, buses, and on rounds. I canceled, re-scheduled, and moved stuff with a few clicks. Tickets were pretty cheap. After the shit I’ve experienced the last two months, I honestly will continue to avoid travel.

For all of you who've now learned about the layoffs at Teen Vogue: the writers and staffers, many of them are left with imminent bills and no income.
If you feel so inclined, after you've cancelled yoru membership, they've set up a group GFM to receive donations for emergency funding as they find their footing.
Remember: you should tip GFM 0; they already charge the recipients as it is.

Hello everyone, thank you all for supporting me so far. It's hard for me to thank you enough because I am lost for words ❤️.
We are still halfway to the goal, and if you haven't participated in the donation for my campaign yet, I would be happy if you join my supporters, “if you can❤️”
I am raising money for my apartment rent here in Khan Yunis, university tuition fees for my siblings, and food costs. " rent & university fees are the most expensive ones

In January, Donald Trump signed an executive order to rename the Gulf of Mexico, and did his best to strong-arm newsrooms into using its new moniker, the Gulf of America. Nine months, and many executive orders later, how is it going? Nieman Lab's Joshua Benton says the new name hasn't stuck in media, or in general use — to the extent that a Trump-loving retirement community in Florida refused to rename Gulf of Mexico Drive to Gulf of America Drive. Here's more.

I hope you enjoyed listening to these songs. Let me know your thoughts!
Unfortunately my internet is very bad so I cannot use YouTube. But I loved writing this thread and remembering these songs.
I’m getting married very soon, we’ll celebrate with music! If you can help me have a beautiful wedding with great music, contribute to my fundraiser. Otherwise, please share my posts.
And tell me about your favourite music!
Much love ♥️✨🫰✌️
