But pure cynicism aside, I have two real concerns. The first is that most of the examples I’ve seen cited for how to replace manager “communication” seem to view that communication as purely one way. The manager is not there to lead or help the team, they are there to relay orders and spy on them.

[HOMMAGE] Le CNRS a appris avec une grande tristesse le décès de Claude Cohen-Tannoudji. Grande figure de la physique atomique et de l’optique quantique mondiales, il a reçu la médaille d’or du CNRS en 1996 et le prix Nobel de physique en 1997. 👉 www.inp.cnrs.fr/fr/cnrsinfo/...

The problem, you see, must be that Sarkisian hasn't taken the new mandatory core curriculum AI class

Move fast and break students' education

Great story from @texasmonthly.bsky.social on the rise of "neo-mccarthism" at UT www.texasmonthly.com/news-politic...

Been trying to decide why HEP doesn't really like databases for its data and coming up with "we like to move it around too much"

Nobody titles papers "Über die von der molekularkinetischen Theorie der Wärme geforderte Bewegung von in ruhenden Flüssigkeiten suspendierten Teilchen" any more

Interviewer: can you explain this gap in your resume? Me: well we enforce a maximum rate of trigger accepts to avoid overflowing the data acquisition buffers so sometimes the complex deadtime algorithm kicks in

It is necessary to use AI to offset the increased hardware costs caused by AI

Also in middle school a significant number of classes consisted entirely of the teacher reading notes and the students copying them down word for word (this was at a national flagship school btw)

Trying to understand homework solutions can feel a bit like biblical textual analysis. "Are these two solutions copying from each other or from an unknown common source? Are they adapting an oral tradition which is being corrupted over time?"

Hooray for IceCube

I feel this could be a reaction gif to something

I wonder if this is a UT Big Idea in Science

I think people underappreciate how many science faculty started off this administration imagining that they might be ideological fellow travelers

FINALLY I have an answer to the question

Trying to guess the Crank Level of this before taking a look

This is why universities are intolerable to this movement

had a first experience of data only available on IPv6 and that was interesting

I think there is some evidence to suggest that most politicians are not actually good at running large organizations

This may be unfair, but I'm morbidly interested in whether certain Cornell faculty are as worked up about this as they were about the encampments

This is basically an internecine feud between two sets of conservatives -- University of Austin types vs. Iowa political appointees -- over who controls a center imposed on campus despite local faculty opposition. And the U Austin types are shocked, shocked by the lack of faculty (their) input.

My Nigerian take on American education is, we were learning fractions in third grade without electricity and in classes of 40+

Looking forward to the next Genesis round!

But that's no more true than imagining that trust in electoral security dropped in 2000 because of some objective failing of electoral institutions. Trust in the press and academia has declined because other institutions have found it profitable to wage a campaign meant to achieve that effect.

With tonight’s 1-0 win over Rapids 2, Austin FC II are the regular season MLS NEXT Pro Champions! Austin FC II will host the first ever MLS NEXT Pro playoff match in Austin in a few weeks.

All I see is a bunch of happy UT students

I'm always a sucker for a CFF video

Chaos and authoritarianism at UT Austin. Faculty have just days to show how their courses meet vague requirements of breadth and foundationalism. Proposals will be reviewed by an unspecified entity. No guarantee at all that those who review the proposals have expertise in the field.

Social Sciences Collegiate Division stop being embarrassing challenge

Concluding that academic administrators aren't any better at predicting the future then anyone else

By the way UT just decided that it was going to migrate to using this, great job everyone

I, for example, am one of these people. It could happen to you, go check
