highereducation 内の PapaBrice によるリンク I'm a liberal professor, and my liberal students terrify me

[–]Epistaxis 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

What about parents? This:

With that has come a concerted marketing effort to label the university space as safe and comfortable.

sounds like it's mainly for the benefit of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, who aren't sure if they should let Junior live in those dirty raunchy dorms.

Where are the helicopter parents in all this?

I think it's probably just that both of us have SSC in our RSS feeds and read it within an hour after it was posted.

I've never heard of /r/rational, but it sounds like a place that might attract people who read SSC. Why?

You have to remember though that many Russians, like many Americans, get a very blinkered view of domestic and global politics that saturates the media they follow (the difference between that Russian power figures manipulate their media with the stick rather than the carrot). When you see what look like they could be government troll comments, don't forget that a large number of people actually believe them, and they could very well be sincere.

Wikipedia has a through article on Nazi architecture. It's weird: classical (or someone's idea of classical), except instead of the overarching (!) sense of balance, the proportions are absurd. Speer's plan to remodel Berlin as the glorious capital of the world focused around the "monster building", a titanic dome forming the world's largest enclosed space, to seat an audience of nearly 200,000 for Hitler's apotheosis.

Given the outcomes of Olympic stadiums today, I think you could compare fascist architecture with communist social policy.

Submission statement: Starting from only a discussion prompt passed around so many times on social media that the recompression artifacts make it almost illegible, the author assembles a short story of speculative fiction, tying together characters of absolute extremes into a surprisingly intricate plot. There are several twists and turns where he takes obvious or nonobvious "trick answers" and still subverts them into unexpected outcomes. The ending is perfect and hilarious, and I didn't see it coming.

It also has some interesting similarity to Watchmen.

/r/bestof has almost five million subscribers, so most places it links are much smaller.

There's no end of great ideas for how the core reddit code could be changed to do this less awkwardly; what's hard is getting the admins to change something.

The official reddit rules regarding np situations are absurdly obscure, and NEED to be clarified.

Simple: there are no such rules.

Brigading is against the rules, but that's irrespective of whether the subreddit that's the victim of the brigading uses NoParticipation CSS or not.

Newer subscribers may want to see this previous thread where NoParticipation was born, or this previous thread where NoParticipation started to become popular.

Nearly three years later, NoParticipation remains a messy kludge that only stops people using certain devices/apps who don't go (very slightly) out of their way to knowingly break the rules. Everyone on both sides of the debate agrees the it's badly flawed. But this is the best anyone has managed to slap together using only CSS.

I for one have always liked how the interactions between subreddits disrupted confirmation bias.

That's great that you think your opinions are welcome everywhere you go, but it's really up to the community you're visiting to decide how it wants to welcome you. Yes, insularity does mean that you'll get confirmation bias in a place like /r/ainbow, where a disproportionately low number of subscribers are willing to express the opinion that same-sex marriages should not be recognized by government, but maybe subscribers to /r/ainbow simply aren't interested in having that debate with you, even if you're clearly right and they're wrong. Please consider that self-segregating by interests is the whole point of having subreddits. If you think a subreddit is too full of people who don't want to have the same discussions you want to have, then just unsubscribe from it and go join another or start your own.

And even if both the visitors and the subscribers are already in agreement about everything, it tends to change the party a lot when you bring five million friends to the door with you. Even /r/bestof, which ought to be the most benign of all the meta-subreddits, just has so many subscribers that it only takes a small fraction of them to downvote people who disagreed with the bestof'd comment into negative karma so they can't post anymore, and harass them with mean replies, until they delete their reddit accounts altogether - this used to happen before the moderators took responsibility for reducing the (unintentional) brigading.

I'm curious to hear more about Wikipedia though.

We might not know if they did. But this is such a radical turn that I'd like to see him do all those things just to claim some kind of victory.

Spying on governments is expected. I don't think average citizens previously expected that either their government or a foreign one was spying on them too. Are you really suggesting East Germans would have been cool with Stasi if it had been run exclusively by Soviets and there were no Germans involved in it?

As someone who lives outside the US, I wasn't missing that at all. I was only addressing the charge that he committed treason against his own country. I don't think the rest of the world cares about Snowden's alleged treason against the US any more than Americans care about Liu Xiaobo's alleged treason against China or Aung San Suu Kyi's alleged treason against Myanmar. But it's not even factually accurate to say Snowden committed treason, which is why his own government isn't charging him with that.

But I guess you're still not glad enough to offer him asylum, huh?

Wikileaks isn't a TV show, but at any rate I don't think you need Wikileaks to ell you that Snowden didn't leak your dick pics. In fact I doubt Wikileaks has even said that, or needed to.

When the US goes to war with the European Union, then maybe Snowden will be charged with treason. So far he has not been.

Why does reddit act so shocked at NSA spying? Isn't this old news? It was even a Simpsons joke in the 90s.

It was considered by most ordinary people to be a silly conspiracy theory back then, regardless of any circumstantial evidence, and the scope of it wasn't clear. Snowden didn't bring that many real surprises, but he made it impossible to disbelieve what experts already knew or suspected, and he made it abundantly clear that it affects everyone, even average citizens of the NSA's own home country.

Those aren't the only countries that he revealed the NSA is spying on.
