There is an urban legend that when the Swedish map makers came to Finland the locals would mess with them when asked what a pace was called and that is why so many place names have “vittu” or “perse” etc. in them.

Anyone want to build one together? I’ve always been frustrated with the current academic publishing model. Parasitic “publishers” double dipping on authors and readers while outsourcing the bulk of the review work unpaid.

Anyone want to build one together? This issue, of “publishers” not only double dipping to accept and then share papers especially when outsourcing the review work unpaid back to the researchers themselves, has always frustrated me.

TSMC employees reportedly stole 2nm trade secrets to share with Rapidus — accused are said to have shared 'hundreds of process integration technical photos' in c/technology@lemmy.zip

I’m sure you are correct and there are plenty of folks who would feel this way. From my perspective, post academia-corpo transition, I would love to share developments and innovations more widely and see others use and build on them too. But hands are tied in the private sector.

Which EU countries have reached their thresholds for the ECI petition to ban conversion therapy? in c/europe@feddit.org

Giving your signature is never useless on things like this, as it is direct increase in the total support. The more the threshold is surpassed the harder it is to dismiss a moment as and activist fringe and not mainstream opinion.

Recipe?

Can the US government force Canonical and Red Hat to disallow downloads and development from non US countries? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[–] underscore_@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Whether or not they are US based entities I think is moot since several developers have already been booted from kernel development due to their affiliations largely at the behest of the US.

Also if they try prevent downloads it would have the interesting side affect that: all the folks out there seeding and torrenting Linux ISOs might have to now also claim they only share the un-embargoed ones, wink.
