I hope it will prove useful to both students and researchers. Feedback welcomed. @MathematicaTip@WolframResearch
@SteveStuWill Illiberalism has gotten very serious within academia. Even (astro)physicists have swung to the far Left--"Particles for Justice" mobbed Alessandro Strumia for speaking about his research on M v F high energy physicists' bibliometrics and higher male variability.
@CollegeFix Ceci and Williams ought to be strongly supported by Americans at large. Their academic colleagues certainly won't--'cause they're either drunk with the far Left Koolaid; or simply have balls and ovaries of a femtometer across.
@FreeBlckThought Are the rest of us allowed to point out aspects of Black culture that are detrimental to the development of Blacks and the robustness of US society at large? I I still remember even physicists coming after me for doing so.
@jon_stewartmill A 6.2:1 = D:R in physics is enough to produce the far Left Particles for Justice, #ShutDownSTEM and other nonsense. Even the (un-)American Physical Society is deeply corrupted by identity politics.
@newstart_2024 That there is objective reality comes from empirical experience and observation; nothing to do with belief in a deity, I'm afraid.
Science is the pursuit of truth. Religion necessarily requires a leap of faith.
@Theo_TJ_Jordan "It will be small ones that splinter off first."
A mini-MIT (i.e., hard sciences) version of UofAustin would be great. Focus solely on the science and substance. No official political stance of any sort. Admission by merit only. Challenge students. High standards of integrity.
@SteveStuWill More precisely: when a trait is governed by many underlying factors, the central limit theorem applies and its statistical distribution is Gaussian/Normal. It is when we compare Gaussians of different spreads and/or means do we find differences at the tail ends to be exponential.
Housed within the American Association of University Professors (AAUP), the group's conception of academic freedom seems to have little to do with free speech.
Here's a meeting where one fellow says that UPenn punishing Amy Wax for her speech was academic freedom in practice.
The Department of Justice has issued an opinion to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) that its guidelines about disparate-impact liability under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act are unconstitutional. The Office of Legal Counsel found that EEOC’s guidelines pressured employers to engage in racial discrimination.
"Despite trying to promote equality, EEOC's disparate impact liability interpretation under Title VII actually fosters the very discrimination its guidelines seek to address," said Acting Attorney General @DAGToddBlanche. "This opinion will now allow businesses to hire based on performance, restoring equal opportunities in the American workplace."
