this should be illegal. you do not need to acronymize simple phrases you only use twice in the article. one paragraph later they write "dependent variable (DV)." they must be stopped

also the point of science is to try to understand things. saying that something is simply “unknowable” without further explanation, and then teaching that to students, is not teaching uncertainty. that’s actually a very certain claim!

when taking notes or annotating a document, it’s important to remember that they are for you, so make them useful and informative for yourself. also write jokes for you for later. for example:
(“honor societies” means Greek life/frats)
(“honor societies” means Greek life/frats)

![screenshot of keith rabois' wikipedia page: While at Stanford, he became acquainted with Peter Thiel, then-editor and co-founder of The Stanford Review. Rabois later contributed to the libertarian newspaper.[11] Rabois was one of several students reprimanded for shouting homophobic slurs outside an instructor's home, including the suggestion that the instructor "die of AIDS." Rabois stated that the incident was designed to challenge Stanford's rules on student speech.[12][13][14] Thiel later defended Rabois in his book, The Diversity Myth: Multiculturalism and Political Intolerance on Campus.[15]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:l6d6rpce2h5vqpind2zzvpvs/bafkreie6fjqkd7magg2hfbsnokn42ewr6dgajcavvv5obkdxmx3luhdxmm@jpeg)

Lenni Lenape play the game of pahsaheman: a football-like hybrid, split on gender lines. More than a hundred players were grouped into gendered teams (male and female) to try getting a ball through the other team's goal posts. Men could not carry and pass the ball, only use their feet, while the women could carry, pass, or kick.[31] If the ball was picked up by a woman, she could not be tackled by the men, although men could attempt to dislodge the ball. Women were free to tackle the men.[49]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:l6d6rpce2h5vqpind2zzvpvs/bafkreidsjgcc4ujtrfgraxhwpale63dfgzrwocrbwcjzbpyhuuyind66ce@jpeg)
