I may be wrong and lack any historical knowledge on the subject, but I think author is sarcastically self-identifying as a tankie?

The further you look in the sky, the further back in time you are looking as well -- there is no way to see what far way looks like "right now". This image shows the visible universe as it appears from our perspective in spacetime, which necessarily smears together the "where", "what", and "when" of it all, but also shows the evolution through time of some of the larger structures.
The tendril things that converge into single celestial objects are clouds of gas condensing to form galaxies and clusters over billions of years.
I'm not familiar with this interface, but it looks to me like it is saying Google was doing the tracking. Could this be tracking attempts made from a web view opened while using Sync, and not the actual Sync app itself? I want so badly to believe they are more privacy conscious than that. Love the app, been using it since it first came out for Reddit. Solo dev IIRC.
There's a native restaurant near me that is kinda like the equivalent of Chipotle for American Indian cuisine, and it's fantastic. The owners are members of the Osage Nation and have had a few restaurants since the 90s. Really happy for them that they recently expanded to also have a food truck and catering business, as well as a little satellite location at a nearby ski mountain.
I can't do much to help undo the genocide and cultural erasure, but I damn well take everybody I know to that restaurant.
Sorry but no? "Voters" means the same thing in both cases, that's how statistics works. You take a small subset of people and try to control for as much as possible to make it an accurate representation of the greater population. Nobody actually knows what Voters in the abstract think if they don't vote or answer polls
I am not in academia but did participate in published research both in college and in a job as a lab assistant afterward. I don't really think your analogy holds up. There is literally no cost to such a change; scientists just need to start READING and CITING papers from free, alternative journals for them to be legitimized. The profit incentives of the universities, private industry, and government that fund the majority of research are not affected by the choice of the medium of exchange of ideas. Only the journals' pockets.
