S2 writing was laughable compared to S1. Cringe as. Mackie did well with what he was given IMO. I rewatched S1 a few months ago though, absolute pulpy banger

Castlevania is fucking sick tho. Watchmen the series is arguably equivalent to the OG comic in terms of writing and artistic quality.

There are genuinely great adaptations out there.

💯 with you on this.

We also do preprints 100% of the time, but academic incentives are baked AF. Not ‘publishing’ means a large proportion of other academics simply won’t read or cite your work as they don’t believe in preprints. Additionally, funding bodies care about prestige publishing in top ranked journals, so if you don’t do this, the grant pool you have access to will be smaller.

The incentives need to change, where journal venue is irrelevant, or weighted far less than it is.

This comic is partially right. If you pay, you get open access, so no cost for readers. If you go old-school you don’t pay and the article is paywalled. Terrible system either way, but open access is necessary nowadays, as otherwise you will get cited less

Cool. Do more pls. Other bible story interpretations pls

Maybe the solution is a global space agency? Removing reliance on the USA is best for business.

Cringe take that is factually wrong and out of step with modern, evidence -based medicine and research. Educate yourself before talking, otherwise people will think you’re stupid.

I think about CP77 to this day. I sometimes even miss Johnny. He’s with you the entire time and it’s a really fascinating bond to experience as a player.

Divorcing your identity from your job. You aren’t a teacher etc, you are someone who teaches (for $). Makes decision making within and outside work simpler

I don’t really understand this sentiment. Cheap games are cheap games. Not even steam lets you ‘own’ your gaming library. More game market competition is good not bad.

Heroic AF

Maybe…but I doubt many of these phylogenies use DNA, and if so, likely only a single or few genes. Nowhere near enough resolution to accurately determine genetic relatedness. Woody plants may actually be more related than we think.

These sorts of phylogenies tend to use morphological characteristics which is an unreliable measure of genetic relatedness.

I will stand corrected if wrong though

Teams is the most reliably unreliable piece of software.

Lol what are you on about. There is an entire body of active philosophical work about the meaning of life: https://scholar.google.com.au/scholar?as_ylo=2024&q=meaning+of+life+philosophy&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5

Undoubtedly. There’s not many games I’d put above it.

Johnny Silverhand did nothing wrong.

Great artistic vision with this pic. Totally dig it

True. A good way around this is to test ideas across multiple people. N=1 is just bad science.

And also asking: “but shit how, specifically?”

Not saying it’s easy

You don’t need their permission to write it up yourself
