I think any scientist should able to convey at least the high level concepts that they’re working on at the level that a smart 12th-grader can follow. If you can’t do that, I think that’s a sign that you’re probably not thinking about your work very clearly. Being able to distill things and context-switch back to a birds-eye view of your work is critical for knowing what direction you’re heading in.
(I say this from the perspective of a climate scientist - our field has a pretty active public/lay conversation and lots of science comma, but I think the concept still applies to other sciences, and social sciences.)
The list is long enough that it has it’s own wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Coca-Cola
Maybe you mean figuratively?
I don’t know, but it could be interesting to try. I could easily imagine topic-focussed servers that go into more depth on specific topics. Perhaps you would only federate things that are at a high level, or directly linked. Kinda like a wiki, but with each community doing it’s own decentralised curation and moderation…
I haven’t seen any spam on Lemmy yet, and only a tiny amount on mastodon (I’m much more active there).
Man, their website is pretty off-putting. Where’s the get-started/dive-in type page? How do I use the thing?
You can do that with NoScript too. Is the Umatrix UI any better, or are there other benefits?
What would be really cool would be an open source, federated version of DMOZ
Yeah! StumbleUpon was cool. Something about how it tried to engender serendipity.
Such a pity that so many other good recommendation engines died or succumbed to enshittification.
Milloy has been spouting denial for decades, but this might be the dumbest thing I’ve seen him say yet.
Maybe someone needs to start a science shitposts community
