Merci Indiana Jones : le mythe d'un IIIe Reich fasciné par l'occulte et les sociétés secrètes et la magie lui doit beaucoup. Un mythe, qui s'appuie comme tous les mythes sur quelques éléments factuels, mais (très) exagérés. Je vous raconte tout ça sur Slate. www.slate.fr/culture/hist...
Les nazis fascinés par les sciences occultes, un mythe tenace mais infondéwww.slate.fr Si l'image d'un commandement nazi versé dans la magie noire a fait les beaux jours de la pop culture, elle ne repose en réalité pas sur grand-chose.

On Facebook Matt Parker posted that there was a huge increase in PubMed papers using the phrase "delving into" since 2023, which he attributed to generative AI. I checked on Web of Science and found this: the phrase doubled in abstracts in 2023, and is on track to double again this year.

Thinking about becoming a Lost Causer, but for Reconstruction. Flying an 1876 flag, slipping “40 acres & a mule” into casual conversation, saying “our people fought the good fight” about ten+ years of multiracial governing. www.rareflags.com/RareFlags_Sh...

Getting pitched yet another wave of GPTified “Grading and Feedback” tools. Tempted to adopt them just to fully close the loop.

lol Academia is totally going to eat all its seed corn on why-not-eat-the-seed-corn grounds like “Oh come on I’m busy and it’s more efficient” or “No-one really reads stuff anyway” arxiv.org/abs/2403.07183
