Because of the ambiguities inherent in the job, spy dramas tend to have morally grey characters, mutable moralities and can, though do not have to, engage in subversive critique of geopolitics and governments (cf Oldham 2017).

Original call here. Exploitation. Lowbrow. Cult. Underground. Trash. Poverty Row. Programmers. Pulp. Popular. Mass. … These descriptors of the “B” movie apply just as well to what we term “B-TV,” as they describe an aesthetics derived from the industrial realities that produced them.

Open source projects like InvenioRDM – on which we rely for our repository software at Knowledge Commons – thrive on community contributions. When initiatives like ours not only use these platforms but actively contribute improvements back to the original codebase, everyone benefits. This “upstreaming” process takes work, but it represents the collaborative spirit that makes open source software so powerful.

I saw a thing fly by on PsyArxiv and could not ignore it so I’m doing a drive-by peer-review. It claims that English-based AI-generated norms are “of particular value for under-resourced languages”. Is that pesky linguistic diversity bothering you? Here, try on these rosy English-tinted glasses and everything will look all prim and proper, promise. Warning: snark detected.

Synopsis (Grok 3.0 aided) A new breed of "Deep Research" tools is reshaping how we tackle complex queries, moving beyond traditional search engines and quick AI summaries. From OpenAI’s Deep Research and Google’s Gemini counterpart to academic-focused players like Elicit, Undermind.ai and SciSpace, these agentic systems promise comprehensive reports and literature reviews—albeit with a much slower response.
