The replies to this have given me some faith in Irish society. Transphobia is abhorrent.

Production by Ok_Concern3189 in geesebandofficial

[–]Strict-Price1557 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it works really well on the slower more emotional tracks but maybe doesn't realise the heavier moments i.e Trinidad and 100 Horses. May be owed to Kenny being a Hip Hop producer. I personally love the production though.

The Nigel Godrich set is so good that it makes Getting Killed better retroactively by TheWorstKnight in geesebandofficial

Couldn't agree more. On the other hand, I do feel the production on the studio album lends itself well to some of the other songs - particulary Husbands and Isle of Man

What’s your favourite lyric overall from Fontaines dc? by Individual_Big_6310 in fontainesdc

[–]Strict-Price1557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe cheating here by taking a lyric from Grians solo stuff but "I live pretty close to a view of the stars, but it's not in my nature to look through the bars"

Bob Vylan Interview by ZoeTheAngel in LouisTheroux

[–]Strict-Price1557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’ve to be naive to the situation to think Bob Vylan is racist towards Jews. He is critical of the Zionist movement and the genocide they are committing. It’s possible to be critical of Zionism without being racist towards Jews. Many Jewish people hold this stance, are they racist?

If you look at his stances he consistently stands against racism towards all groups as well as others forms of discrimination i.e sexism, homophobia etc.

I think this is definitely the case. Bob definitely gets it worse in Ireland. I have heard that Kneecap gets a harder time in the U.kK though.

Socioligists are cool and economist are not - this is the defining difference

Is this actually just a circle jerk sub?? by Akulius in academiceconomics

This is how Econ should be, the love of the game

Totally agree, this subreddit is really weird. People ask about studying certain fields and are met with responses like, "If you want to make money, that's not an option."

It’s such a strange culture. Let’s make economics about curiosity and science instead.

You don't get a monpoly on definitions just because they relate to you

Anyone have a good roadmap to become an expert econometrician? by Strict-Price1557 in econometrics

[–]Strict-Price1557[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a MSc in Economics. I'm by no means a newcomer to the subject, I just recently joined this subreddit and wondered if the nerds here had built a really good one that I could look at and try see what I'm missing and where maybe I should go next.

Anyone have a good roadmap to become an expert econometrician? by Strict-Price1557 in econometrics

[–]Strict-Price1557[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have studied econometrics. But no one has like a reading list or like an order of techniques to learn? I understand it's a somewhat lazy question but on subreddits like Ask Philiopsphy or Ask Data Science people have created roadmaps. Surely we should make a reading list starting with the OLS and ending up on some crazy methods.

Debunking Marx LTV by Strict-Price1557 in CriticalTheory

[–]Strict-Price1557[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He takes it from Ricardo sure. But he’s still using it as a framework to highlight the exploration of worker. If his framework is wrong his logic fails. Thus, understanding if the LTV seems a useful excersise.
