"NSF is being asked to make science racist again - which contradicts evidence that shows that diversity of ideas is good for science and good for innovation. We are missing things when only white males do science," said one program officer.
That statement seems to suggest something that was correctly left unsaid. So which is it?
- Why is it assumed that only white males will submit proposals?
or..
- What makes it a foregone conclusion that white males do better science?
or..
- Other? (no ambiguous bullshit, be specific)
BTW: I do not agree with any of these ideas. I find them to be very disrespectful and I would say technically racist .
I get it, space is hard. But really, It's just space you guys. It's not like it's rocket science!
Whenever I stopped typing for a moment it was clear how badly I had chosen my latest keyboard. It seems that all this time my previous keyboards have all been enabling my poor technique.
I naturally hold my wrists slightly above and type downwards like playing a piano, but realised I have a habit of resting my hands on the keys when not actively typing.
On these silent mushmellow switches I can't even rest my fingertips with my palms resting on the support pad. Just the weight of these oafish sausage fingers is all it takes to sink slightly deep enough to register as keystrokes.
Browns and Blues FTW!
These G's dont' grow on trees ya know!

FTFY
People keep assuming that there must be some kind of profit-driven fuckery to explain this lunacy. It has to be something other than the bullshit facade they're trying to sell. Perhaps they simply cannot say what the real reason is.
I think the real message cannot be said out loud. It's likely that there's no better way to insert/remove a multi-keyed signing cert (for 3rd party snooping) into the chain without the renewals being fully automated. The meddlesome admins that maintain these systems would start to question why their CA's intermediate signing cert has suddenly changed, yet again, years before it was supposed to expire.
Also, it would really make these and future schemes a lot easier if you would just cooperate and configure everything to stop validating certs like Apple and Google have been for years.
You say that with such confidentce.
I did suspect that the main attraction for Bluesky was the implication of carryover bias/censorship from the old original flavor Twitter.
But I never bothered to look into it so I'll just take your word on that, thanks.
I like the part where he says "It's Light Cyclin' Time" then slams his visor down and speeds off into The Grid.
I like that one, got me thinking. How's this?
I'm sorry. We do make that size, but it has been arbitrarily decided that you cannot install MS brand tires on vehicles that have windshield wipers longer than 19".
Already done, that piece of shit is in fucking pieces.
I find it hard to believe that a person infected with a lab leaked COVID could spread it to other people in a densely populated area.
Like, what are the chances that somebody went to somewhere and spread a highly contagious virus among other people?
Get real buddy! Obviously it was those horrible pangobatlins that are out to get us.
Prevention of further suffering should be priority #1.
Vengeance is hollow. That and everything else is misguided at best. Harmful in spirit. Destrucive in practice.
The Babel Fish that feed on brain waves are just made up, complete fiction. Cute, but not real.
So clearly the holes are for feeding them their boring regular fish food.
