“I need to discuss science vs. engineering. Put glibly:
In #science if you know what you are doing you should not be doing it.
In #engineering if you do not know what you are doing you should not be doing it."

― Richard Hamming, "The Art of Doing Science and Engineering: Learning to Learn" (1997)

“Researchers measured autistic people against neurotypical expectations and called every difference a deficit. They tested empathy by measuring in-group preference and missed commitment to universal fairness. They measured creativity by counting the number of ideas and missed originality. They saw moral consistency and called it rigidity. They saw deep engagement and called it rigidity. They saw sensory richness and called it disorder.”

What the World Got Wrong About Autistic People

For decades, autism research compared autistic people to animals, denied them moral sensitivity, and assumed autistic traits made them miserable. All wrong.

#PhantastikPrompts 30.3.: "Was schreibst du hauptsächlich – Kurzgeschichten, Romane, Gedichte …? Und was gefällt dir daran besonders?"

Früher ausschließlich Lyrik.
Heute immer noch Lyrik – aber in Gestalt eines Romans.

Das ist extrem aufwändig (sic!); aber eben deshalb auch so befriedigend.

@bundesmessenger wieso muss das X im Namen sein?

Der Buchstabe ’X’ wird in ASCII mit der Zahl 88 codiert und deswegen als Dogwhistle der rechten Szene benutzt. ( Das erklärt auch Twitters neuen Namen und das Design der #fckafd Plakate. )
