This is what I get for googling my own name in order to find a video recording of one of my talks, instead of actually saving it anywhere.
Now Google thinks I'm important, when probably like 99% of the search traffic was just me.

What I imagine hymenoptera conservatives to be like: "There are only three genders, female reproductive, male reproductive, and worker"
Some ant: "What about super majors?"
Some other ant: "Also gamergates, are they workers or reproductives?"
Conservative hymenoptera: "There are only three genders, female reproductive, male reproductive, and worker!"
Some termite opens mouth …
Conservative hymenoptera, shouting: "There are only three genders, female reproductive, male reproductive, and worker!!!!!"

Moreover, I think the Zeit is making some important meta commentary about journalism:
Sometimes you have to lead with an opinion piece. You cannot neutrally report some events, and should not even try.
Sometimes, it is good to redact an image. Not to withhold information from your readers, but as a comment in itself "this is what we, as a society, do not accept". The reader still learns what happened from the text. If they do wish, they can find the full picture easily plastered all over the internet. But you don't have a Nazi salute on your front page.

I have to say, Mastodon's inability to actually reliably fetch content leads to hilarious situations, like a reply to my screenshot about someone earnestly proposing to use Gen AI as a random number generator being confused about why people are talking about what a bad idea it would be to use Gen AI as a random number generator.
Like I get it, distributed computing is hard, but at least if someone expands a thread, try to fetch the whole thread.
