Even though I think everything in this class is going to have a net positive for our future, I agree that the Professional Development Packet is my personal favorite too!
I'm kind of afraid that my CV will look too much like my resume since I have no applicable skills, publications, nor awards that I can list... #RHUB305
@jesusurielbern1 I agree that the grad school advice was helpful in that way, but I think Bissonnette's writing had just as much of an impact (on me at least)! It honestly gave me the proper motivation to polish up my resume and look for a new job to further my work experience
#RHUB305 Bissonnette's advice to think abilities as context-based instead of black&white is useful in marketing, both to others and yourself; the repeated absolute statements you tell yourself disguise lies as personal truth bc of the illusory truth effect https://t.co/RliTCup7IQ
#RHUB305 Regarding COVID-19-related hiring suggestions, I wonder how helpful building an online brand would be to my planned field of healthcare? Aside from making sure that no inappropriate content is posted under my name, I don't really understand how useful that'd be
#RHUB305 https://t.co/zH6eCd3Yf7 I can use this paper as a source in reference to the "common fact" that the severity of S. aureus is correlated with eczema, especially since it wouldn't be common knowledge for the audience reading my research paper.

You mentioned that there wasn't much research having to do with comp sci, but maybe you could do something regarding psych and the field? Here's a paper about it and the gender distribution, for example!
#RHUB305 Since it's already known that the severity of eczema is correlated with the density of Staphylococcus aureus to other commensal skin bacteria, I want to study topical treatments that can be developed to increase overall skin biodiversity so that I can treat my own.
@connorfinerws I 100% agree that technicality obfuscates readability and wanted to add that it doesn't help his credibility, especially considering some people reading may also be unfamiliar with Fb's "private" features that were found to be not private at all & accessible to data breaches
#RHUB305 It's funny how Zuckerberg doesn't mention the 2018 Cambridge Analytica scandal as context in his 2019 note, instead referring to the blunder in vague terms w/o admitting fault like "we don't currently have a strong reputation for building privacy protective services"
@DavidPalafox19 While I do agree with King that reading is the most surefire way to improve your writing ability, I think even just listening to more narrative-based content like podcasts would lead to improvement! It'd be a case study in understanding how to craft the meaning into words
Everything I've written is filled with adverbs, dialogue attribution, and filler words galore. Products of those awful word count-based assignments. The remedy? "Go through it all with a colored pen" (Anne Lamott) and "omit needless words" (Stephen King quoting Strunk) #RHUB305
There's a double meaning of the zhezhi paper animals that "give them life" 1) Jack sees lifelike animals born from paper with his childish imagination and 2) the Sigulu village use papercraft as a small happiness to lessen their trauma and give life back to the village! #RHUB305
@BitterForLife I like your parent-child parallel, but I don't agree with your 'oppression doesn't occur if you're allowing it' mentality. The oppressed's passivity doesn't erase the oppressive act. In an extreme example, isn't it still rape even if a victim freezes up and "allows" it to happen?
Adichie's talk parallels the importance of moving from Freire's banking education to problem-posing education— how we must build from a static understanding (of people) to an ongoing multi-faceted perspective (via consuming more stories) in the pursuit of full humanity!#RHUB305
"The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell" is a phrase that a typical student mindlessly repeats, encompassing Freire's concept of banking education. Most people I've met can say the phrase verbatim, but not be explain what it actually means! #RHUB305
