I totally agree with you there. But note that there are people who are 50% professors, 50% administrator, For example, we have a VP of Campus Planning, a rotational position, who is 50% professor and 50% administrator while they are in that

I didn't frame it as getting rid of diversity and inclusion, that's just usually how the roles are defined. But you're missing my point completely (maybe intentionally?). I'm just saying that we should talk about specifi

While in general I agree that there are too many administrators at many universities, this type of argument is ineffective without pointing out exactly which administrators. And I find that once you try to do that, no one agrees which admin

I've mentored hundreds of people. As someone who does not think of themselves as a creep, I've had many scenarios where a misinterpretation could make the mentee/employee/student think I was a creep even if I had good in

I've heard this a lot but don't see much in terms of numbers about this. For private universities, the sticker price is high, but the effective tuition that students are paying has actually stayed the same or decreased [e.g. http

I agree with your main point here, but I think you're trying to paint and overly broad claim about PhD programs, which are extremely different between institutions. It's like saying "working at a company is like this... you l

Okay, fair enough. Sorry for being a bit antagonistic. I guess I'm just a lot less pessimistic about academia, having worked in industry before as well. The financial part isn't as good as it could be for what we think we do, but

Totally agree the comparison isn't equal. But what I'm saying is that the 9-month salary is already way higher than an industry salary. If they worked the 3 summer months funded by a grant, it's like getting a 33% bonus on to

It's strange to me that you're a professor but the things you're saying aren't true. The 2/3 grant money thing I think you are talking about indirect costs? That's not money off the top of received grants, it&#

Agreed. Please leave scrolling alone. It's the one constant we have in the world of unpredictable interfaces.

I think his point is that Josephine has a sense of community, that the people behind the cooking are fully visible, whereas in Sprig the people are just cogs in a system.

You bring up a terrific point. The ads are simply not loaded. The user is accessing an external server, and it's up to them what to load.

That Wikipedia page is the most hilarious wtf I have ever seen. I did not see this "< 25%" number you mention, but I read that "In 2011, a survey conducted by TIAA-CREF Institute senior researcher Paul J. Yakoboski estimat

The number 6 you mention is schools that are need blind and meet full need for both US and International Students. Most well-known universities are need blind and meet full need for US students, and partially support international students.

The misinformation about adjuncts is pretty widespread. Adjuncts have indeed been hired way more at teaching colleges and for-profit colleges. But research universities haven't really changed their hiring tendencies much, if at all. It

CS conference papers go through the same process as a journal would in your field, but typically with only 1-2 revision cycles. The acceptance rates are much lower than journal because there are fewer retries, so people generally submit rea

So a car unlock is $175? You might as well get AAA which costs a third of that, and you can get car unlocks all year for free.

I'd be interested if it included cities. If there was a javascript plugin to automatically help contribute (is that possible), I'd add it to some of my web pages. CSV is fine.

Doesn't using the chad as bait for fishing simply put the pollutants in other waters? It seems a little shortsighted but maybe I'm not understanding the full story.

Does anyone know whether someone packing today could carry the same functionality in a lot less weight? I imagine a lot of the electronics items and compass and maps could be replaced by a top-of-the-line phone.

The most disappointing thing to be is they used a lower quality 480p webcam. So many people use Skype or Google Hangouts that a high resolution webcam is a must.

I also tried Moves and found it really bad if you're actually interested in accurate tracking your location. Runkeeper and Strava seem to use a lot of power because it's GPS only. Is there a GPS+celltower combo app you've fou

Hopefully they will fix the problem that no one has been able to buy one for a while. The SDK is great, but not that interesting if everyone you know bought a different smartwatch because they couldn't find the Band.

Nice way of writing the article -- the narrative in the first half makes us believe Clougherty's side, while the second half shows the other side of the story.

Thank you. I thought I was the only one who cared about getting the raw data out or was just missing something obvious. Why is it that hard to get the minute-by-minute data?
