There's someone with the same last and first name as me who does research in civil engineering, every week or so I get invited to review a paper or go to an engineering conference… Poor guys must be thinking nobody invites him to anything.

Eu acho que a primeira vez que eu me senti traído pelo capitalismo foi ainda criança assistindo aquele filme que o menino recebe a mensagem “não esqueça de beber seu Ovomaltine”.

It's really important to note that not only was Watson a racist and misogynist but his contribution to the double helix was listening to a Rosalind Franklin lecture and getting mad because Francis Crick wouldn't invite him to his sex parties.
Hey folks, as news of Watson's demise spreads, please don't set aside his weighty legacy of misogyny and racism. He was truly among the worst of us. www.vox.com/2019/1/15/18...
DNA scientist James Watson has a remarkably long history of sexist, racist public comments
“People say it would be terrible if we made all girls pretty,” he said in 2003. “I think it would be great.”

Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have.
Python foundation said no and rejected the grant.
If you use Python, send a few dollars to the charity to keep it going. I’m pushing a dono on behalf of ScamGuard.

Após ver a Lady Gaga ao vivo, só conseguia lembrar do Bruce Dickinson… único outro cantor que eu vi correr tanto, subir escada, pular, etc, e cantando muito mesmo. Acho que a única diferença é que a Gaga muda de peruca várias vezes e não sei se o Bruce mudava 👀. Ah, e ela toca guitarra no show.

"Europe cannot afford to forget a fundamental truth: values and principles are not luxuries to be set aside when the pressure mounts. Defending them is not naive idealism – it is a strategic necessity, both to counter authoritarianism at home and to shape a rules-based, multipolar world abroad."
'EU leaders & institutions are not only bending to the hardening authoritarianism across the Atlantic. They also routinely placate far-right forces at home (corroding) the very values & principles – democracy, rule of law, open markets & climate responsibility – that they claim to uphold'
If Europe keeps placating its own far right, how can it possibly stand up to Trump? | Thu Nguyen and Jannik Jansen
European leaders’ weakness is undermining the democratic principles on which the EU was built, say Thu Nguyen and Jannik Jansen from the Jacques Delors Centre
