As if you had any choice. You are currently browsing ss’s articles. Torture, part 2.5. May 4, 2009 in Uncategorized. I just found this. Column by Daniel Froomkin that quite eloquently makes many of the points I made in my last post, and simultaneously demolishes his colleague, the inimitably sour Krauthammer. (Please, someone tell me that’s a stage name. I mean, does he not have a Nazi supervillain name? Ahem—I don’t mean to imply that the resemblance goes beyond the name, of course! Torture, part 2.

July 2, 2009. 8212; unknownadjunct @ 1:07 am. I see from this op-ed in the LA Times. That the Dean of the UC Berkeley Law School is advocating that the University of California system add an entirely online university. He gives two reasons: first, so that the UC system can do “more with less”. Hmmmm… I believe that usually works out to doing “less with less”. Building a new UC — In Cyberspace. 2 Comments ». I just blogged about a recent meta-analysis released by the Department of Education that states th...

Research into Research Funds. Just another shout into the ether. Might Be a Problem. Posted by Dance under Uncategorized. I live in a 1928 house built from a Sears kit, and while the landlady renovated the kitchen, the bathroom seems pretty close to original. So it’s got a shower conversion that consists of hanging some metal racks from the ceiling to hold a shower curtain around the clawfoot tub. I cannot see any empty screwholes on the shower curtain rack, but I am concerned. When Is the Essay Due?

December 30, 2009. 8212; unknownadjunct @ 6:25 pm. I’ve decided to pull the plug on this blog — my situation has changed, and the original purpose of the blog doesn’t match what I am doing.

Numbers: whose side are you on, anyway? | Suffer, fools
https://sufferfools.wordpress.com/2009/03/10/numbers-whose-side-are-you-on-anyway
As if you had any choice. Numbers: whose side are you on, anyway? March 10, 2009 in Uncategorized. Tags: too tired for tags. A couple weeks ago, there was this great article. So what makes this guy good? To me, this is interesting because it shows how the presence of numbers can distort perceptions. Yeah, this is one of those “ideology vs. empiricism” posts. I just can’t kick the habit! Structures are very rigid, so it’s quite sound reasoning to say, no, there’s no coincidences, there’s...Is severely fla...

As if you had any choice. April 28, 2009 in Ravings. Tags: this one goes out to the permanent Republican majority- -good times. Torture, part 2, is in the pipe, but first some quick thoughts on Specter. The reaction from the right is unbelievable; namely, the number of people who say some variation of, “good riddance.” I mean, was the marginal relevance Republicans had just too stressful?

Pointless moralizing? | Suffer, fools
https://sufferfools.wordpress.com/2009/03/21/pointless-moralizing
As if you had any choice. March 21, 2009 in Rantings. Tags: I can't believe I'm criticizing Jon Stewart. Unbiased crap is still crap. At my graduate institution, there was a corner of lawn near my department that everyone would cut across, so that the constant pressure of feet made an unsightly bare path. The logical thing to do would be to put pavement where the path was. The administration built a fence. With the old economics destroyed, organizational forms perfected for industrial production have to ...

The end of macho? | Suffer, fools
https://sufferfools.wordpress.com/2009/02/21/the-end-of-macho
As if you had any choice. The end of macho? February 21, 2009 in Rantings. Tags: cowboys can suck it. Are the days of the macho in politics over? What’s great is how his less macho style is also incredibly effective in political conflicts. Why keep playing Mr. Nice Guy? Now it seems perceptions have gone the other way: take these pieces by Bob Herbert. And a (thematically) related post by Nate Silver. Tl;dr version: Obama got pretty much what he wanted, and Republicans look like obstructionist asshats.
