When you see a very unrealistic representation of university life, it's not clear whether it's because of it being a comedy or that we are supposed to think (American) university life is like that.
Also, a group of girls asserting their independence as a sorority by doing exactly what a guy tells them to do? I hope this becomes a plot point later on...
So far, every single character is not being true to themselves, but not really in a comedic way.

I may have written quite some articles for the student periodical in my university days, but here's me letting you in on a secret: almost all of them were filler stories like mentioned in the previous reshare by @Jason Lefkowitz. Though I didn't know the term 'bus plunge story'.
Our periodical needed to be a multiple of four pages, due to how it was printed. And even though it was laid out on the computer (wordperfect, but then laser printed and the pictures glued in by hand), there was only so much whitespace you could remove and articles you could shorten. At some point you realised you were still half a page over and you were just going to have to add content to make it to the next multiple of four.
I wrote so many totally pointless articles, quickly, after the deadline, but before the printer offices closed...

Bought a Wacon drawing tablet today. After some deliberations I went for the cheaper model that is advised for beginner's, since, well, I don't know what I'm doing. But the more expensive models were so much better... and so much more expensive...
I already notice that I've really got to get used to the absolute positioning. I keep using it as a touch pad!
I also realised that in a sense, I already have two other Wacom devices: both my phone (Samsung Note8) and tablet (Samsung Tab S4) have an s-pen, which is the same thing. Especially the Tab S4, using the Pen-Up app, is showing features of the more expensive Wacom models: pressure sensitive, multi touch, tilt(!), and of course its own display...
The Scream VI trailer is out! It looks great. Nice detail is that unlike the previous one where they suggested Tara (Jenna Ortega's character) was the opening kill, here we see her in multiple outfits, so she is in the film for a while. Not so nice is that there is a clip of Tara in trouble that she maybe doesn't survive...
In cinemas in March!

I want to stress this quote:
"Never forget that the interview is for you, too."
So many people forget that. It's also about you selecting them as employer. It's why I don't consider a "not a fit" result to be negative, especially when it's true.
They did not ask a single question about my technical competencies, my achievements, or what I was looking for in my next opportunity. I was told this interview was a vibe check and that they'd prefer if I asked all the questions to see what was important to me, so I did.Unsurprisingly, they passed on me the next day for not being a "🚩cultural fit". I honestly laughed for a solid hour.
Never forget that the interview is for you, too.
Some of my favourite science history facts:
The term "big bang theory" was coined by a scientist who didn't believe in it but in a static universe. He thought by giving it a ridiculous name, the theory would go away. The name stuck.
"Schrödinger's Cat" is a thought experiment often used to explain an interpretation of quantum physics where things can exist in multiple states at the same time as long as there's no other boundary condition (the cat is both dead and alive as long as you don't look into the box). Schrödinger did indeed come up with it, but since he didn't believe in this interpretation, the thought experiment was intended to make fun of the theory.
Others:
The cosmic microwave background radiation that is the result from the start of our universe, was first by the researchers thought to be the result of pigeon poo that had built up in their antenna. So this research project involved them standing in the big horn of the antenna with brooms scraping out pigeon poo.
When researchers tried to find out how much gravity was slowing down the expansion of the universe and whether it would be enough to pull the universe back together in some kind of big crunch, they redid their calculations many times because the result was so unexpected. But eventually they had to publish it. The answer to whether the universe's expansion was slowing down enough was that it was speeding up. No-one knows why.

in reply to Gidi Kroon • •So far the parallels with the Belgian film Daens (1992) are remarkable (that one is about a moment of social change in Belgium involving a priest called Daens). A smart young woman (Maud/Nette) observes hardships while working in a factory, including the brutality, including sexually, by the male supervisor. There's a government committee that will hopefully bring about change, but their hopes are dashed, resulting in an act of great police brutality. Even down to the committee members being ushered away and the policemen being on horseback. Though I must say that Daens did all this much better and I urge people to see that film. Antje de Boeck is truly amazing as Nette.
Anyway, I'm now wondering who will go to Rome for an audience with the Pope... For surely from here on the stories must diverge.
