I don’t know how it is in the USA, but here biologist graduates are mostly women, so I think the implication is that she was being called a biologist (who can’t design experiments) because she’s a woman

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•those who consider themselves to speak multiple native languages, how does it impact your culture? what are some advantages/disadvantages you faced?
2·10 months agoMy personal experience is that I just translate one idiom from one language / culture to the other without realising and still expect ppl. to know what I mean.
That often works in my experience, and can lead to funny moments

Privacy@lemmy.ml•In the rush to reduce the power of ‘Big Tech’ and protect citizens, Europe is making big mistakes, experts say (Dutch article translation)
12·1 year agoJust because you have a national solution that’s crap doesn’t mean the rest of us should agree to have a European solution that’s crap too, even if it’s less crap than what you already have.

1·1 year agoI’m not knowledgeable enough about this particular project to be able to give an informed opinion as to whether it’s bad or good (though the article raises some points I would consider concerning), I was merely reflecting that there can be enough valid criticism of the implementation of something that’s good and useful in theory to make it simply bad, and that not every criticism can be dismissed by saying something is better than nothing.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is the smallest city in your country that everyone can still instantly recognise the name of? What is it famous for?
5·1 year agoEven without considering cheese villages (somebody mentioned Roquefort, I was thinking of Gruyere, France clocking in at about 100 inhabitants), I believe Verdun would be just as known and is smaller at a population of around 17000.
Speaking English using French vocabulary is a real cheat code
