As Michelle Obama said: "When they go low, we go high"

Get out while you still can! I think a lot of software engineers are only content with their job because they're unaware to the alternatives to working as a corporate drone. You might be good at it and it might comfortably bring in a lot of money but it doesn't sound like that's what you truly care about so they're not really convincing arguments.

Why airpods specifically? I recommend the Truthear Hexa, like 1/3 of the price with better tips and far superiour audio quality

>You truthfully replied that it was just your lack of sleep that was to blame, but you conveniently left out the fact that your sleeplessness was the result of staying up all night researching Mad Cow Disease. Yikes!

This hits too close to home!

>This study appears to focus on short term memory, but for my money, long-term memory is much more significant. As such, it would have been useful to add a third option: using a SRS system like Anki

Then you should go tell the journal editors that this study is incomplete and didn't cover the type of memory you consider more significant, hopefully they will retract the paper

> My point was more that if you’re trying to decide which method is better for remembering something (handwriting vs. digital), the introduction of a spaced repetition system (either software like Anki or a Leitner box for handwritten notes) will outcompete either one that is used alone.

The study in question compared three groups (pen & paper note taking, smartphone and tablet) on information retrieval and note taking duration after reading a dialogue.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your point, but that systematic spaced repetition will lead to better information retrieval is kind of obvious and has a lot of literature to support it, but how is it relevant to this study?

Because the original link submission title was more about memory and writing vs. typing. And so I was commenting on the topic of memory as a whole.

Judging by the other comments, most people had the same interpretation.

> I was commenting on the topic of memory as a whole

You specifically said that the study was lacking a fourth group (spaced repetition software.)

You I seem to be posting hostile, unhelpful takes all over this thread, so I think I’ll end the conversation here.

Hey, they're demonstrating it's working for overly sexualised cartoon characters too!

There's no such thing as "oversexualized", stop shaming people for being normal. Your harassment is not welcome here.

Oversexualised used this way refers as much to an industry/society as individual people. For example, while individual sex workers might have autonomy and we can respect their choices, we can still notice that our culture creates a situation where women are primarily given value for their physical attributes, above others, and that this applies less to men.

> There's no such thing as "oversexualized"

There is, when we're talking about characters made to look like children.

Right? And the audacity to claim calling them out is harassment is just uhm … creepy to say the least.

keep jerking off to cartoons weirdo
