I totally agree with this and will also add that with a graduate tax, those who benefit most from a degree would pay most. In the current system, the best pair graduates actually end up paying less than moderately well-paid graduates because they pay off the loan early and pay less interest.
Thanks for sharing this. It's really interesting. I have, in the past, taught Linnean classification but didn't know about this side of it. I started off reading the article thinking "questionable, but maybe understandable", then it got to "oh my god that's awful".
The winter olympic log with Milano Cortina replaced with melanocortin and the rings represented by melanocortin neurons
All I can think of when someone mentions the #olympics venue. #hypothalamus #melanocortin #pomc
@robertjbennett.bsky.social Oh my god, I love the ghrelin reference in a drop of corruption. As a fanstay-reading neuroscientist this is in my exact niche.

Hey, steady on. Ricky Singer was my hero back in the day.
I'm calling everyone I don't like a fart-saucepan from now on.
Serious "ex olympic fencer" vibes.
Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to Lloyds chemist's, but that's just a bag of KP peanuts to space.
I love these so much.
Sexual monolith is one of hose descriptions that, when applied to the right person, everyone would agree was the right term but there'd be differing views on how complimentary it is. Positively aspirational for a certain type of man.
This does lose some points for the number of times my wife tells me that tomorrow will be beyond imagining.
Oh, so not the Barry White tribute act or parody that I had assumed (genuinely).
There's another way to see this:
AI is now making in-jokes. It's quite a step forward. In just another 50 years, it might realise it's making in-jokes.
"How to lose an election in 10 days"
The like button doesn't fully convey how much this concept amused me!
Maybe this is how we stop it: noone on social media explicitly says what they mean and we all assume we agree with each other.
I see what you did there (again assuming that we're thinking of the same word).
Oh. You're so funny.
It all depends how broadly we define the terms "AI" and "help".
The enthusiasm is the only bit I'm enjoying...
Wordy from 1980s BBC educational TV show Look and Read.
Possibly too clever. I'm assuming you're a lover of cryptic crosswords.
The problem with that is remembering exactly what insults the mnemonic contains. There are so many possibilities.
@thebugle.bsky.social Yes! Mickey Paintbrush finally debuted on the BBC www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
I'd be upset if I'd come up with that and got no likes or replies so have one of each.
I remember (vaguely) spending a lot of time saying that at the time whilst sat in a beer garden after my finals.
What's a kappa, I wondered. Wikipedia claims "The kappa favor cucumbers and love to engage in sumo-wrestling. They are often accused of assaulting humans in water and removing a mythical organ called the shirikodama (lit. "buttocks-wee-ball") from their victim's anus."
That, however, does match the Zaltzman world-view!
