techright-sec | When I looked at undergraduate theses, | Feb 19 05:39 |
techright-sec | I found them filled with factual errors, including at the conceptual level | Feb 19 05:39 |
techright-sec | but the grammar and spelling was 'perfect' so they were passed by the | Feb 19 05:39 |
techright-sec | administrators and approved for a degree despite being just plain wrong. | Feb 19 05:39 |
schestowitz-pi | to be fair | Feb 19 05:40 |
schestowitz-pi | the examiners are overworked and distracted | Feb 19 05:40 |
schestowitz-pi | it takes hours of attention to read | Feb 19 05:40 |
schestowitz-pi | and then attend the "phone" with the piled-up "notifications" | Feb 19 05:40 |

techright-sec | Not just overworked but basically not paid for the evaluations. | Feb 19 05:41 |
techright-sec | Half an hour per week covers an e-mail or two with the student and does not | Feb 19 05:41 |

schestowitz-pi | in 2005 i asked my phd supervisor, head of cs dept at the time, about doing only part time postdoc | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | he said what i head heard in 2003 | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | it's not possible | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | and moreover, full time means over 40 hours | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | you work after work | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | expected to anyway | Feb 19 05:46 |

schestowitz-pi | but i was busy with wordpress.org community and my site, tons of other things all day long! | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | i didn't want to give that all up for Google job or some meaningless faculty job | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | i found the whole thing demoralising at the time | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | i slowed down my phd | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | and nested as a student | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | in 2005 i had already begun writing my thesis | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | i saw no rush anymore and the economy collapsed in years that followed | Feb 19 05:46 |
schestowitz-pi | (crashed again; 2000 was the first) | Feb 19 05:46 |
techright-sec | As you point out reading would take hours on its own | Feb 19 05:47 |
techright-sec | I checked with a senior researcher about that about the same time | Feb 19 05:47 |
techright-sec | and he pointed out that at a top institution you are likely to do 90 hours | Feb 19 05:47 |
techright-sec | just to keep your job now. | Feb 19 05:47 |
techright-sec | The economy did not collapse on its own but was intentionally hollowed out | Feb 19 05:47 |

schestowitz-pi | sometimes the interview processes aare mere formality | Feb 19 05:56 |
schestowitz-pi | to tick the box | Feb 19 05:56 |

schestowitz-pi | mark told me | Feb 19 05:56 |
schestowitz-pi | they advertise the position | Feb 19 05:56 |
schestowitz-pi | but already filled that our internally | Feb 19 05:56 |
schestowitz-pi | so nobody gets the job | Feb 19 05:56 |
schestowitz-pi | it's just for appearance | Feb 19 05:56 |
schestowitz-pi | the article she did was last year | Feb 19 05:56 |
techright-sec | that was a thing even in the 1990s though back then they did make | Feb 19 05:59 |
techright-sec | an effort of show. You could tell by the details in the announcement | Feb 19 05:59 |
techright-sec | who was expected to be hired. IF there was an outstanding applicant they | Feb 19 05:59 |
techright-sec | might open a second position but otherwise they were so specific, while | Feb 19 05:59 |
techright-sec | trying to sound vague, that only one person on Earth would be a fit. | Feb 19 05:59 |
techright-sec | There were several companies fishing for employees at the Perl conference | Feb 19 05:59 |
techright-sec | last August | Feb 19 05:59 |

techright-sec | ouch, I hope there is a treatment which solves the pressure, | Feb 19 15:00 |
techright-sec | not sitting is a key there | Feb 19 15:00 |
techright-sec | diet is important but movement throughout the day plus a real exercise session | Feb 19 15:00 |
techright-sec | on top of all that -- per day | Feb 19 15:00 |
techright-sec | ok good to hear that all is well. I was too ill to take the call though. | Feb 19 15:00 |
schestowitz-pi | sharing was important for me at the time, not anymore | Feb 19 15:02 |

schestowitz-pi | motto-ish: people around me, inc. loved ones, WILL get ill, the system is unable to help as it is defunded | Feb 19 15:08 |
schestowitz-pi | i cannot compel them to take better care (superspreaders and such) but can decide for myself | Feb 19 15:08 |
schestowitz-pi | point 2) it's an _international_ thing, hard to "escape" | Feb 19 15:08 |
schestowitz-pi | even a fractured knee will suffer from defunding | Feb 19 15:08 |
schestowitz-pi | doesn't matter mask or no mask | Feb 19 15:08 |
schestowitz-pi | some docs seem under-skilled | Feb 19 15:08 |
schestowitz-pi | some go on strike | Feb 19 15:08 |
schestowitz-pi | the better ones | Feb 19 15:08 |
schestowitz-pi | so your GP might be some scab | Feb 19 15:08 |
techright-sec | yes public services are being intentionally defunded towards the goal | Feb 19 15:08 |

schestowitz-pi | the cops here are just box-ticking exercise | Feb 19 15:11 |
schestowitz-pi | and the health system is... well, i saw what i needed to see | Feb 19 15:11 |
techright-sec | The EU and US have been in recession (probably actual depression) since 2002 or | Feb 19 15:11 |
techright-sec | so. Yet there has been no move to repair the damage through investing | Feb 19 15:11 |
techright-sec | in society. | Feb 19 15:11 |
schestowitz-pi | 2002 sounds about right, depending where you set the threshold and what criteria are selected | Feb 19 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi | in 2003 i got a job offer in london and turned it down | Feb 19 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi | decided to nest in unis some more, then came 2007/8 | Feb 19 15:15 |

schestowitz-pi | heck, even have a pet | Feb 19 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi | not one that is locked up all day and then goes out only to bite unknown humans? | Feb 19 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi | set aside the financial aspects, inc. "childcare" (the term used here) | Feb 19 15:16 |
techright-sec | The "New Deal" was a way to invest out of the downturn. | Feb 19 15:16 |
techright-sec | "Austerity" is only a way to cause a downturn when none exists or make | Feb 19 15:16 |
techright-sec | one far worse when it does exist. | Feb 19 15:16 |
