In a book I'm reading, the author uses the word 'bifurcated' once every five pages.
It's infuriating. #phdlife #SimpleWordsWorkJustFine

be glad you're not an archaeologist studying lithics. We have all the bifurcated points. All of them.

This book is particularly bad though. There is zero ambiguity in saying "split" in any of the contexts...

my auto-text's first choice for a word after your Twitter handle is "pedantic". Your textbooks seem to have a common theme...

it's a GIS Programming class, so it's not about the language as much as how they work with our toys

Ah, that sorta makes sense. I know ArcGIS is cool and pythonic, but...expensive.

isn't the price the worst? I'm trying to get comfortable with qGIS bc it's free/OS, but I'm so used to Arc so I like it more

Yea. qGIS is cool (and has #python!) but arcGIS is a really nice product
