  • There are so many words in that list that are either general use or widely applicable in so many fields, it’s crazy. Some fields popping off the top of my head.

    • barrier: biology, as in the blood-brain barrier. Or engineering, economics,
    • biases: AI, psychology
    • disabilities: medicine, sociology
    • diversified: finance
    • excluded: just about anything
    • female: electronics, engineering, as in female connectors or receptacles
    • gender: biology
    • historically: also just about anything
    • status: just about anything, but a lot in IT and engineering
    • systemic: biology, medicine
    • trauma: medicine
    • under represented: anything with statistics

    This is just getting me depressed.








  • I wouldn’t call it gaslighting or even hallucination, but just getting things mixed up. I described Bart Simpson and asked if it could tell me which character from which show I meant. There is a Gomer Pyle who appears in several episodes of the Simpsons and does have pointy hair. I’m pretty sure he doesn’t wear a helmet and bandana. But Gomer Pyle is also a figure in the Andy Griffith Show and Gomer Pyle USMC, which aired in the 60s.
