    No need to rush to conclusions, I do read appendices when needed. My point is not that authors should cut the appendices or compromise on any other good open science practices. The point is that disproportionately large appendices make one wonder if some of that stuff actually belongs in the main text. If it is just a robustness check that gives a similar result, fine, make a footnote in the main text and put the analysis in the appendix. But what if it is actually relevant information that changes the perception of the main text?

    In the US it's not only drinking but even carrying an exposed bottle of alcohol. Which is why in some places liquor stores are called package stores (if I recall correctly), because they package the bottle in a brown bag.

    I just recently read the first Expanse (Leviathan Awakens) and am reading Hyperion. Depends on what you are in a mood for. Expanse is more action-packed and easier to follow. Hyperion is higher up there, takes time to digest.

    They talk about many things, but the one that stands out is incentives. There is a lot of competition in academia, publish or perish, with big prizes, so some people are taking shortcuts.

    Just finished Hyperion, curious to hear the community’s thoughts

    Spoilers warning Picked it up from the Goodreads science fiction top list. The description did not make much sense to me but I decided to give it a try based on the popularity. It was a bit hard for me to get into but after a while the narrative made sense. It felt cosy to imagine all these travelers gather around and tell stories to each other. I liked the variety of styles and themes that each character contributes. But I still felt it was not fully stitched together. Yes, there is this shared universe but the transition from one tale to another still was jarring. And the ending was underwhelming. I was hoping for some closure, and the last tale kind of provided it, but then there was a heap of unanswered questions. What were your thoughts? If you read the sequels, were they worth it?

Any recommendations from the folks here using Alfred about essential workflows and favorite themes?

Also, it is not even possible to filter workflows and themes by popularity or date. Any tips welcome!

In a bizarre coincidence I finished Ico this week (for the very first time, and... what an experience) and, of course, went to Gamefaqs to see what I missed on the first play through. To my huge surprise, there was a new guide, added just a few days back. The guide is on the language of Yorda, kind of similar to some of the previous work done, but a nice addition nonetheless. Really impressed that people are still writing guides on a 20+ year-old game.

    What did you think of *Kaiju Preservation Society*?

    Read it recently, somewhat influenced by a post about John Scalzi on the sub, just wanted to share my thoughts and ask what you guys thought. Minor spoilers ahead. My opinion about the book wavered as I read it. It went somewhat like this - Covid setup, cringe - Oh, secret society, Kaiju, cool - Why do these guys constantly *removed* with each other like they are kids from Stranger Things? - Chill, everyone is a megachad and bad guys get fucked - The culmination, meh, nothing original And then I read the author’s notes about the book and realized that this was my favorite part.

    How do you organize resources for a given topic?

    I am researching a few topics, like AI and work from home, and I am trying to figure out what system would be best. E.g., I may find some news articles, or journal papers, or reports, and so on, on a topic I am interested in. One option would be to create a note with the topic name, say "AI, and then just put the links into the note, maybe separating them with headers. Would it work or is there a better way? I was also thinking about a kanban board, but not sure if it is worth the trouble. Anyway, I would appreciate your tips!

    Italian birthday traditions

    We are organizing a birthday party for an Italian employee at a German company. Are there any fun (but not too embarrassing) traditions we could do during the party?

    Why aren't hot dog buns more popular in Germany?

    Sausages are a staple of German street food, and yet most places serve sausages in a round "semmel" bun. But the sausages are long (duh) so they just beg for a longer bun. Why do you think hot-dog-style buns aren't more popular?

    Why are Europeans more effective at passing big legislation than the US?

    EU has done really well on passing big laws such as GDPR in the recent years, while the US can't even seem to decide whether to fund their own government. Why do you think Europe is doing better than the US? One would think that since EU is more diverse it would be harder to find common ground. And there were examples of that during the Greece debt crisis. But not anymore, it seems.
