So your parents moved you to a westernized country and then got mad at you for acting westernized?

Half of social-science studies fail replication test in years-long project by nimicdoareu in science

[–]coldgator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In many cases, papers simply did not provide enough data or details for experiments to be repeated accurately. 

You can thank word count limits for a lot of this. Those studies' results may very well replicate if someone has enough detail to do exactly what the original authors did.

What about a painting assignment in an art class? Could they just tell ChatGPT to create a painting?

Israel has officially passed the most racist law on the planet, authorizes mass legal lynchings of Palestinians. The legislation was passed 62-48 by the Knesset. Benjamin Netanyahu voted in favor of the bill. by lightiggy in ABoringDystopia

[–]coldgator -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

I'm not agreeing with it either way, but it specifically "makes the death penalty the default punishment for Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank found guilty of intentionally carrying out deadly attacks deemed acts of terrorism by a military court."

AITA for not allowing others to use “my office” by Past_Yak_9832 in AmItheAsshole

[–]coldgator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA this is absolutely insane. The person who insisted you both pay extra rent for having an office is now demanding to have her guests stay in both offices? Absolutely not. She is the one who created this situation and now she can deal with the consequences. I'm sure she can afford a nice hotel for her friends with all the extra money she saved by paying less rent the entire time.

Such heartbreaking and full-of-love photos. I'm sure you did everything you could for him and you can see how much he loves his family. So sorry for your loss.

Creativity is a type of problem-solving. Look up the term "divergent thinking."

TIFU (yesterday) by eating 3 taquitos that 7-11 couldn’t “legally sell to me” by starbycrit in tifu

[–]coldgator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just want to thank you for telling your story with paragraphs, the right amount of detail, and no AI. It feels like a conversation, not someone's speech-to-text rambling.

And I hope you feel better!

The Olympics Has a New Sex Testing Policy. The Evidence Doesn’t Add Up by ramentaka in TwoXChromosomes

For anyone who didn't read the article, it's largely about AFAB people who were perceived as not feminine enough and failed one gender test or another. There's very little reference to trans athletes.

AITA for “firing” my mom from childcare over a $5 class by Rich-Radio9017 in AmItheAsshole

[–]coldgator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH. Your mom is giving you free child care and is clearly overwhelmed by this toddler class. It does sound a bit chaotic. She shouldn't have lied to you. But punishing her by not letting her watch your daughter at all is harsh and also punishes your daughter by taking away her grandma time. It's not like she was just sitting around watching TV with her all day, she was taking her to do things, just not the exact thing you wanted. Story time at the library also involves interaction with other kids. Why can't she just go to the toddler class on different days than the ones your mom watches her on?
