I’m surprised and appalled that TETRIS is okay with being associated with this deplorable product.

Everyone pls pressure TETRIS to take the necessary steps to extract their license with a very public announcement - or TETRIS will be as dead as the future victims of this lunatic’s killer machines.

Just a reminder that the best way you can help indies is to leave a review on Steam! The more reviews, the more the Almighty Algorithm pushes the game to other players. This is especially important during the seasonal sales. So with that said…

Faire la guerre aux chômeurs et non pas au chômage, parce que c'est notre projet !

La réforme de l'assurance-chômage était censée inciter les chômeurs à retrouver un emploi, elle a eu comme seul effet de paupériser davantage les précaires, d'après le bilan effectué par l'Unedic.
La réforme de l'assurance chômage de 2023 a entraîné une baisse moyenne de 14% de la durée d'indemnisation et a fait augmenter le nombre de personnes en fin de droit de 77%.

En revanche l'Unedic n'a pas mesuré d'effets sur la reprise d'emploi des chômeurs.

Merci Macron !

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.

And trans lives are grounded in reality.

We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

It is infuriating to see academics using AI to "conduct" (fabricate) research get maybe a finger wagging of a warning, while those of us with lengthy publication records outside of academic journals, who NEEDED to get paid to write, are instantly disqualified by uni hiring squads.
I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

"gneugneugneu la censure woke dans les universités"
Des étudiantes posent des questions piquantes (mais nullement insultantes) à Rodolphe Saadé sur son empire médiatique.

En réaction, des responsables universitaires les fustigent.

Et décident qu'à l'avenir, les questions étudiantes seront cadrées en amont...

L'Université meurt de l'auto-censure.
