I've been tempted to buy one of those drone thingies, but I know if I did I'd probably crash it in the first ten minutes and be out a load of cash

2018-11-29 09:53:49 UTC  

I've seen a guy who flies one around my town, he got some really good video during the floods

2018-11-29 09:54:14 UTC  

lol

2018-11-29 09:58:06 UTC  

I'd love to get one but they are so expensive, but apparently they are really stable and easy to fly

2018-11-29 10:04:46 UTC  

Well I posted it, but I think there are other similar studies as well. Quite possibly better ones. For example the studies conclusion says that a significant part of the bias is caused by upmarking weaker students in math (which tends to be girls) yet the study also mentions that this accounts for 7.5% of the bias, which I wouldn't call that significant

2018-11-29 10:05:21 UTC  

Significant is a technical term

2018-11-29 10:05:44 UTC  

It basically means nontrivial

2018-11-29 10:07:14 UTC  

Perhaps, but where's the theory on where the rest of the unaccounted for %? It mentions also disruptive behaviour at 3.5% for instance, but there's a huge amount of 'unknown' which should lead to further theories

2018-11-29 10:07:59 UTC  

Right, but you hardly expect the first few studies to quantify the problem to fully establish causal relationships

2018-11-29 10:09:27 UTC  

True. I guess what I expected was that in the conclusion it would list the next studies to be carried out in order to build upon the current one

2018-11-29 10:34:29 UTC  

Why is @InsaneCaterpilla baby talking? I don't know if it's off putting or turning me on.

2018-11-29 10:35:20 UTC  

πŸ˜‰

2018-11-29 10:39:31 UTC  

The studies need to be carried out first. You can't point at studies that don't exist yet.

2018-11-29 10:39:52 UTC  

That's just a recipe for jynxing it

2018-11-29 10:40:20 UTC  

I wasn't saying it should, I was saying the study should suggest further studies that could be carried out to investigate the unknown %

2018-11-29 10:40:51 UTC  

Also papers don't always end the way they began so citing a title for something that might be slightly different could be confusing

2018-11-29 10:41:16 UTC  

Oh they often do.

2018-11-29 10:41:24 UTC  

But they won't give specifics

2018-11-29 10:45:02 UTC  

Oh yeah so reading it it looks like they offer policy advice. So my guess is there's no money for the study.

2018-11-29 10:45:52 UTC  

Doesn't mean a little pressure on the right people won't keep it in the public eye 😏

2018-11-29 10:47:05 UTC  

Course there's no money for a study, anything that shows girls/woman have a bias in favour of them is obviously lies constructed by the patriarchy TM

2018-11-29 10:47:31 UTC  

Indeed πŸ™

2018-11-29 10:47:42 UTC  

Still. Ever the optimist

2018-11-29 10:49:01 UTC  

That reminds me, I need to get my oppression card renewed

2018-11-29 10:51:47 UTC  

Nah, haven't you heard, they're just gonna tax men more and out it directly into women's bank accounts instead. How dare anyone make women apply for a card to have true equality. They should just sit there and receive money

2018-11-29 10:52:24 UTC  

oh shit, even better, less effort for more return, sign me up xD

2018-11-29 11:56:53 UTC  

No! Bad @Abbysol ! No Feminism! Very naughty! XD

2018-11-29 12:01:15 UTC  

but... free moneys!

2018-11-29 12:30:15 UTC  

It's how they get ya

2018-11-29 12:34:04 UTC  

Can I get free money if I say in a girl

2018-11-29 12:34:35 UTC  

I guess, they are the ones who made the rules so I dont see why not

2018-11-29 19:54:36 UTC  

Honestly, we should do one of those civil disobedience things where every man paying alimony, child support, or spousal support should just stop paying and accept the consequences

2018-11-29 19:55:05 UTC  

And then just check in on how the women and their children are doing, since obviously they still have jobs and are making money

2018-11-29 19:55:16 UTC  

Would be a great wake-up call

2018-11-29 20:00:43 UTC  

Only thing to work out is how we move our money somewhere the government can't take it

2018-11-29 20:00:56 UTC  

@Rai don’t spam the channels

2018-11-29 20:01:01 UTC  

Say it once. We get it.

2018-11-29 20:01:18 UTC  

I figured it was more an activism thing 🀷

2018-11-29 20:01:29 UTC  

Okay, then keep it in <#515246196374372380>

2018-11-29 20:01:42 UTC  

Great, I will. Just figured I should finish the thought
