"If you don't have facts, you can't have truth. Without truth you can't have trust. Without these three things we have have no shared reality, we can't solve any problems, we have no democracy." - Maria Ressa
If you accomplished ~anything~ academically during the pandemic, such as:
• submitted an application
• earned a degree
• passed a class
• did research
• learned something
• taught somebody
• submitted a manuscript
• stuck with it
• changed course
• set healthy boundaries
• figured out what works for you
• helped a colleague
you did it in Very Hard Mode, and I salute you!
If you got your butt kicked, you’re not alone 💜
When the world's greatest Joycean tells you to finish your work, you have to listen, so here's the premiere of my introductory series on complex systems, in case it's of interest.
If I can’t see how many likes each post has, how will I know which scientist to agree with?
Quoting [a post on the orange site](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33639015):
*Me and my colleagues will be affected by the end of Z library and co related projects.*
*Here in Brazil and for sure in most second and third world countries, people don't have money to spend in books.*
*You can argue that people can go to the library, but in most cases it's even expensive to take a bus or taxi even a Uber.*
*I'm a law student at an university in brazil. Law books are really expensive. Even though my university have a library, sometimes it doesn't have the books that the professors ask us to read.*
*Since I found z library I could have access to most of books that I needed.*
*I do know that the writers and publishers have costs and they need to make money, but I don't agree with the fact that we have to pay to have knowledge. It's more like if we don't have money, we can't have knowledge.*
