I start my new faculty position on friday, and can't get an ID until friday. I can't enter my new library yet. 😐 I know most BIG 10 schools have reciprocal entrance (I've used it to go to the Northwestern libraries) but I wish overall things were less locked down.

Evidence I've seen cited for a talent shortage is surveys of employers saying they haven't been able to fill a position. We know there are categories of CS grads who are less likely to actually work in a traditional CS role. I think the reality is more complex than what's been pitched for K12 CS.

The line for a long time was that there's a talent shortage. The other question could be whether that's actually true...

the overlap of pro-natalists and people who believe "the strong will survive and that aids evolution" is somehow huge, and is probably just because they think their preferred racial category are superior genetically

Students are definitely finding ways to use them on projects and presentations. The output is not very good and does not get graded very well, but the student has already missed a learning opportunity.

I know otherwise very educated people who thought the microwave made your food less healthy by breaking it down... yes, that's what cooking does 🫣

I do think some of this comes from people who are intolerant or irritated in some way by common food processing ingredients not knowing they are

Oh, I'm not saying they can't or don't. That sounds like they should be analyzing their data in a different way.

Yes, I do too. I think we need to separate "this study used saturation" from "this study is sound."

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your context, but it sounds like confirmation bias is going to arise from the framing of the research questions. If the starting is a hypothesis, I think there are going to be fewer suitable methods. (I wouldn't begin thematic analysis with a hypothesis, for example)

Not all methods use saturation! Some even recommend against it. (I wish reviewers understood that...)

This wasn't even a school sponsored event. I'm pretty sure it was put together by a Black student support group.

The unassigned seating was great for groups like sports teams and school groups. Getting seats together for that can be a whole mess.
