We try to give as much insight into how we report our stories and our dealings with tech companies as we can, and the narratives that they push. Meta has become obsessed with telling reporters that its smart glasses are no different than an iPhone. So we wrote this:

I work in IT and the most directly useful college courses I took for my job were writing courses. Technical knowledge is worthless if you don’t know how to properly communicate.
In which a Yale prof calls for jettisoning humanities to make way for science-only universities.
“scientists… are being punished for the sins of [humanities scholars] because we all live under one roof. I cannot see a compelling reason for our continued cohabitation.”

Hi Itch, author of the original article here. Thanks for ignoring my repeated requests to comment, and then coming out of the woodwork days later to claim that my article - which verified each game's indexing status independently - is 'full of misinformation.'

This article is full of misinformation unfortunately. The games Wendy and co. are indexed: itch.io/search?type=...
I think maybe the person is confused because it doesn't show up in the autocomplete? Autocomplete only shows the top ~1000 games: itch.io/t/3361091/se...

No. No more debates. You lot have shown you can’t face up to the truth even when it is set out clearly in front of you.

I think we should actually consider the idea of “you can change your gender but not sex” as just straight up transphobia, gender essentialism and frankly, sexism
spare us from the cis allies who are always like "nobody saying that you can change your sex" and "we're talking about gender not sex, they're very different." stop it.
