BeOSPOS posted:I'm a librarian for real and this is a stupidly bad post Nah, I nailed it. If you feel you have to vocally defend your profession's worth, you aren't doing a very good job at your profession. And librarians get stupidly defensive about their careers to the point of obsession. All you have to do is say the triggering phrase Why do we need libraries when we have Google? to invoke Threat Level Midnight. Also, in terms of privacy, librarians cave like all the rest when law enforcement comes a-knocking. See: Silk Road and the role SFPL played.

libraries are good and cool lmao if you actually pay for books and ebooks that you will only read once the only reason scribd is in business is because people somehow don't know that you can get it all for free from the ol' library

Taking a shower at the gym I realized that anybody flushing the toilets makes the water temp go up by 10F. MitM attack if I have ever seen one.

a breathless and poorly written piece on the petya variant that hit recently tl;dr: it's not really ransomware as it straight up overwrites the boot sector and subsequent blocks, there's no way to decrypt them because they weren't actually encrypted at all, presumably this is by design. for some reason it ignores the existence of low level file recovery tools like testdisk and photorec, which will likely recover the file data regardless of mbr and mft damage e: the implication being this is a state-level attack disguised to look like ransomware to generate a different narrative infernal machines fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Jun 28, 2017 |

libraries would be a lot more cool and good if we taught kids how to use them as they exist now, rather than teaching them the research methods of 25 years ago

even when they do mention electronic stuff, it's not taught well. is lexisnexis more powerful than google scholar and wikipedia links? yes it is. but the chances are approximately zero that the teacher is better with lexisnexis than kids who grew up around google/wikipedia are at using those tools i rarely went to the library in college or even grad school. most cs stuff that i needed was online. i did have a research paper for one philosophy class where one of my sources was a monograph that cost hundreds of dollars and the campus library system didn't have. so i went to the library of congress and took notes from it in the reading room. that was cool. but that was the one class in 7 years where i needed the library. for most students the campus library is just a quiet study hall that happens to also contain books

there was some magic going on in grad school that if we searched google scholar on the university network, we'd get free access to stuff. we'd also see a link to the library's page for the item, in cause you're some weirdo who wanted the physical journal.

Shifty Pony posted:I just point the browser at proquest and go to town. institutional access owns. A public library card will usually get you free access to proquest, gale, ebsco, lexis, westlaw, and a million other loving useful online resources from your home but most people don't know this because librarians generally do a poor job of outreach unless it involves their "maker space" (a button maker or a 3D printer that is almost exclusively dedicated to kids printing skulls) or a knitting meetup. Hence the reason why librarians are so defensive about their self worth -- there's some truth to the questions about librarians' value because they seldom proactively demonstrate it. Usually this is an institutional problem and not the fault of the individuals which -- on the flip side -- you can have fantastic systems like that in Seattle because they foster the idea that a library should foster innovation and take the lead on engagement with in their community. BTW, I'm a librarian and I want libraries to succeed and thrive, but that means stfu with the hand-wringing angst, taking ownership of your own career, and being an effective leader.
