"I always wanted to listen to academic papers in my car...". I'm calling bullshit. 😝

Fails to mention: "and was a really nice person to boot."🤩
My Doctorvater's PhD involved building an omnidirectional treadmill for dewinged flies to demo spatial cognition. Postdoc on Bayesian sensory cue integration because he liked computers. TT on object recog because psychophysics was boring.

True story.
Thanks for the create and share.

It is not elitist to value education.
Many of us chose to give up comfort pleasures and career security for higher education. I am an immigrant, with working class parents, who scrubbed toilets to pay undergrad tuition.

I'm going to have to read up on the caliphate. So please treat my opinions as uninformed.

I do not share your faith in the masses' ability to self-govern (overnight). If we are evolving, it is a slow process and perhaps we'll see viable systems emerge beyond my lifetime.

Every empirical study demands replication. Here we go again.

Human civilization seems to gravitate towards needing individual figures, to personify common values and shared ideals.
Such institution(s) should be done away with, but I'm not sure what we would replace it with, without risking organized society.
IMO Pope Francis was a suitable role model.

But the child was uncertain if they were required to detect the egg or to discriminate it from the non-eggs.

We're both psychophysicists. But, I believe in "attention".

Hahaha... My spouse complained when she saw my layout: You could have made more effort. They are all in full view.

Something else. I am a custodian of human knowledge, accumulated through multiple lifetimes, narrated and augmented through the lens of my own.

Perhaps LGM should be evoked whenever one wonders: is that inference valid?

My grandfather had Chinese citizenship, which is not his ethnicity. You assume too much about my identity and know nothing about Chinese history.

Also, I am not Chinese. My grandfather was but migrated. We are not Han by ethnicity, which is typically confounded with Chinese citizenship. Chinese is a citizenship, not an ethnic identity.

To simply assume that everyone has to be aware of what happens in US America and to care is itself, in my opinion, a very US American trait.
comment in response to

I am not US American. I am ignorant of your history and am only familiar with the impact of US' foreign policy.

Als Professor für Mensch und Technik lehre ich, wie Menschen "funktionieren" und vergleiche es mit der Gestaltung von Technik, die "sense, plan, and act", die sich wechselseitig auf unsere Lebensweise auswirken. Ich unterrichte dies im Rahmen der Komm.Wiss & habe in Neurowissenschaften promoviert.

I would appreciate taking a look at this list. We teach Creative Coding with a minimal set of assumptions about computer literacy and these assumptions are increasingly challenged given the growing generation gap.

What is much more upsetting is that this is not true of all our students. Rather, there are also students can program and can articulate the functional differences between tablets and desktop PCs. The problem is the knowledge divide between those who know and those who think they know.
