2024-10-12 23:00:58 +0200 <ghoulguy> maybe another department there is already using that name?
2024-10-12 23:00:25 +0200 <dolio> Why not just "College of Stuff"?
2024-10-12 22:59:16 +0200 <probie> Re "Professor of IT and society", the university I did my undergrad at (the Australian National University) is thinking of renaming the "College of Engineering, Computing and Cybernetics" (formerly the "College of Engineering and Computer Science") to the "College of Systems and Society"

2024-10-12 22:46:05 +0200 <int-e> also somewhat upsetting because it's so bad (another win for https://xkcd.com/386/ and I don't like it)
2024-10-12 22:45:29 +0200 <int-e> zero: eh it's kind of funny
2024-10-12 22:45:19 +0200 <geekosaur> (of course, I say that while recalling that Bitnet Relay Chat was no better…)

2024-10-12 22:40:40 +0200 <zero> i'm sorry. i thought it would be fun to share

2024-10-12 22:35:56 +0200 <int-e> so... it's possible that Chris Tozzi isn't even responsible for that section about Haskell
2024-10-12 22:35:30 +0200 <int-e> and it seems that they added 5 languages (which ones?) in the process

2024-10-12 22:34:56 +0200 <int-e> zero: note also that the article has been updated and they're not really saying who did the updating
2024-10-12 22:33:50 +0200 <zero> monochrom: not to justify myself, because i do spend a lot of time reading random stuff on the internet, but i just stumbled upon this article when searching for dead (natural) languages

2024-10-12 22:31:53 +0200 <monochrom> Also something can be said about people who waste time reading from random people on the internet.
2024-10-12 22:31:52 +0200 <zero> or is it "IT and Society"?
2024-10-12 22:31:32 +0200 <monochrom> Something can be said about the internet. Just don't listen to random people on the internet.
2024-10-12 22:31:32 +0200 <zero> what's a professor of society?
2024-10-12 22:31:22 +0200tzh_(~tzh@c-76-115-131-146.hsd1.or.comcast.net)
2024-10-12 22:31:03 +0200 <monochrom> Nothing to say about the article.
2024-10-12 22:30:52 +0200 <zero> Chris Tozzi is a freelance writer, research adviser, and *professor of IT and society*

2024-10-12 22:29:46 +0200 <int-e> It's one of these things that make me question whether a human wrote that.
2024-10-12 22:29:09 +0200 <zero> I was hooked from "Haskell is a legacy language"
2024-10-12 22:28:00 +0200 <alp_> I'd say "good for you" to the author I suppose
2024-10-12 22:27:17 +0200 <int-e> ("the influence its designers envisioned" - citation needed)
2024-10-12 22:27:12 +0200 <identity> LMAO even
