Legacy preference bans may not increase college diversity, researchers say

At some highly selective colleges and universities, cohorts of mostly white, wealthy applicants have three to eight times greater odds of admission than other similarly qualified applicants. These beneficiaries are legacy applicants, those who receive an admissions bonus for having alumni relatives.

New research shows that when men feel they do a fair share of housework, they report having sex more often and finding it more satisfying. This is a change from older ideas about chores and relationships.

Verhandeln und das damit zusammenhängende Denken, ist bei analytischer Betrachtung meist egoistisch. Faires Verhandeln setzt dagegen Ichbewusstsein voraus, das sich im Denken widerspiegelt, das dem Verhandeln zugrunde liegt. Ein Denken, bei dem Ichbewusstsein im Hintergrund existiert, ist die beste Voraussetzung für Verhandlungen. Das Fehlen des Ichbewusstseins ist ein atavistischer Zustand, der ehrliche und faire Verhandlungen verhindert.

Gut dass jemand mal die echten Probleme anpackt.. 😖

In Umfragen hinter der AfD? Lass mal gegen eine  einheimische Gruppe Stimmung machen, da die Migranten schon von den Faschisten schlecht gemacht werden.

@kalvin0x8d0 shame on you, grifter.

So, to get away from exploitative #music labels, we should submit to exploitative "AI labs"? The colonialist companies who strip-mined the commons to resell it to us on a subscription?

For every ten dudebros who are happy to synthesize "audio content" without paying an artist, there's at least one kid who's dropping out of music education because "why bother". They won't get that creative outlet in their life, and that's an unacceptable cost.

Shame on you, "AI" has nothing to do with #accessibility, #justice, #equality or #fairness. It's an alienating and exploitative technology financed by people who want #creativity dead, because artists are a threat to fascism.

Democratising Creativity: Beyond Musical Gatekeeping

Say no to AI-generated music!" — said people who could afford and master musical instruments and high-end professional computers for recording. They have made concert tickets inaccessible and unaffordable, haven't admitted that they stole old musical works without explicitly disclosing it until somebody sued, and can't even fulfill listeners' personalised needs.

Trickle down?

Fuck trickle down.

I don't want pennies which fall out of a billionaire's pocket and which are beneath him to pick up.

I want the full transitive value of my work so I can democratically split it with my coworkers. Y'know, the people doing actual work and contributing value.

And if we decide we need a shared assistant ("manager"), we'll hire him and negotiate his reward collectively.
