I think the most important is that these citations are being read in full text. This is better that adding a reference based on what it says in the abstract

Computers were slower but i wouldn't call them frustrating. Windows start menu in 2000 was an 100% intuitive hierarchical menu. Today it takes me 10 minutes to remove the utterly useless spammy crap that MS ships by default. It used t

would you say the cultural difference was equally massive 20 years ago, when turkey was much more aligned towards an EU future? I don't think so much has changed in turkey culturally, but a lot has changed politically

seriously? it's easy to tell that something is slow to respond, because you can compare the time it takes from the audible mouse click to the change you see on screen, and primates are very very good at perceptual discrimination

PERCEPTUALLY slower. meaning, you click on something and you know instantly that at least it's processing, i.e. without perceptually detectable delay. Almost 100% of SPAs (including gmail and "electron" type apps) suck terrib

It's weird we don't have psychometric benchmarks to capture this trend. How many times a day do you get frustrated thinking that your mouse has broken down because you clicked something and it didn't start spinning (it will b

aren't they going to be asking for the real email though? email remains the best and free-est login identifier. Most people who are not complete internet plebs have a second email for things they dont trust.

bans are good - it means de-consolidation. Wait until something interesting happens in gab.ai and you 'll see hordes of left-leaning people flock to it, because people love to argue on the internet, and safe bubbles dont have a lot o

I find such studies rather shallow, just explaining away a phenomenon without looking deeper for causes. I dont think the level of political animosity that the USA seems to have now has been seen before, maybe ever. In no other country hav

musk studied physics though. and you cant be a phd chemist without being a physicist at some point. of course all politicians are primarily politicians at the time when they do politics but we 're talking about background here. Backgro

Musk is a physicist though, and i m pretty sure Musk is a frequent subject even when politicians speak. They have not reached out to the public in ways that Rowling or Obama have, so it's natural that the public feels them distant. Bil

it's still a tiny amount of neurons that are being turned over. About 1.75% of the dentate gyrus is renewed per year.

> why is our society so inefficient when it comes to spending money? There's no recipe for that - it's a gamble. The amounts of money that are spent in science have been increasing rapidly for decades to great proportions, but

Well apart from this being a good PR play in a time when advertising is naturally cut back due to the uncertaintly, it will be a big test (if not just acknowledgement) that social media traffic is just as crap traffic as e.g. forums. The ol

Maybe she has a point, but for the wrong reasons. There's something to be said about "throwing more money" believing that it will end up in better science. It's politically easy to pass a bigger, huger accelerator: tons
