hi,
in the late #90s and early #2Ks, when the teacher gave me a #research #homework or when came my turn to #write on the #class' #textbook , I had to research the #information on many #books & stuff, so that kind of research took a long #time , now, you can ask the A.I. to do a #specific & #spicy research, & you will get the result in mere #seconds, my point is: #years ago, when you hear something, you invest a lot of time but you verify, now ppl are too #lazy for that

What use to be before
now is no more

Nary a trace
of yesterday's reality remains

Speculation now saturates
revisionist history
as PHD's pontificate unrestrained
their best pet historical theories

After many high priced consultations
scholarly consensus now proclaims
what had passed for absolute truth
back in the day
never really was

Interpretations have been revised
to polish the #textbook
lies
that will exonerate departed martyrs

Victims of unyielding authorities of the past

Bone crushers of contrarian dissent

Self righteous burners of all heretics
who did not salute the dogma
of a black and white world
science defined as flat

Remember this lesson
next time a self righteous fool
preaches to you about absolute truth

Critical Thinking by Richard Parker & Brooke Noel Moore, 2020

In this new edition the authors have expanded on how to improve information acquisitions skills and recognize dubious claims, gravely important in this current climate of “fake news.” In addition, they have revised and expanded the distinction between subjective judgments and objective claims and revamped their explanation of inductive reasoning into four different types.

Well, here we are! "The #DarkMatter Discoverer's Guidebook" is in the "lock up" period. The editing after technical review is done. The formatting is (we think) done. There is nothing more to do with this textbook other than leave it to #YBKPublishers to complete the process.

This is super exciting!

So far, we are on target for both electronic and print editions on #DarkMatterDay, aka #Halloween! (October 31)

Looking for recommendations for an #artist who works with #graphics #illustrations for a #textbook #nonfiction #book . Looking for a friend, so no sales pitches please. Just helping with research.

Can anyone suggest a good textbook for a VM's and JIT compilation course? You might think that would be too specialized for textbooks, but you'd be wrong. I like Smith and Nair book a lot, but it's almost 20 years old now, and uh, one or two things have happened. #VirtualMachines #JustInTimeCompilation #TextBook
