We found that the most gendered experience wasn’t work-life balance, the focus of most retention efforts. It was feeling devalued, in formal evaluations, but particularly in everyday interactions. Unlike every other topic, the gender gap in devaluation was larger among more senior faculty.

Quarto users, anybody have a decent way to highlight text quickly in a pdf render? (we do this often in collaborative writing to demarcate things that need attention) this extension works well but the syntax is verbose and therefore [cumbersome]{fg="#ffffff" bg="#b22222"}

I mean fair enough. There are times when one has to consider what information is expected at higher levels to make things go smoothly and times when it's appropriate to buck the stupid system we are in. 🤷‍♂️

I have really liked Loop earplugs, including for hearing protection during concerts (caveat: I don’t go to that many). Any other suggestions for concert-friendly hearing protection? I’m sharing with my undergrad class where I have a soapbox about hearing health us.loopearplugs.com/products/exp...

I'm a professional philosopher. Something like half of the names on this list are philosophers, depending on how you draw your lines. These names don't make up half of the authors IN MY INTRO TO ETHICS CLASS. This list is garbage not because of what's there but because of what's not.
