      so on point. we have a new paper under consideration and we leverage @ruha9 new book to anchor our findings... one reviewer had so many concerns about " the new jim code." I'd say we're doing something right.

      Mmmm. Did they. Why don’t they ever have greater concerns about the conditions and actors responsible for what we describe and document? Questions. (p.s. can’t wait to read your paper)

      Yeah really. Back in 2005 when I was at Microsoft Research I wrote a manifesto “Computer Science is Really a Social Science” and ... well let's just say many computer scientists acted as if they found the idea somewhat threatening

      I should note that some computer scientists were also very supportive - Jennifer Chayes, Mary Czerwinski, Liz Lawley, Dan Ling, Jeannette Wing, Andreas Zeller all leap to mind.

      1. You're absolutely right - compsci is a social science. 2. Many techies implicitly understand this, and reconcile their ill-preparedness and social power by sprouting "new" fields they can claim to themselves (AI anthropology, Center for Humane Technology, progress studies)

      If what you're doing is *so new the field doesn't exist yet*, you can write off criticism under "needs more research, live with the consequences until then, we can't just stop what we're already doing"

          At least when tech borrowed from social science in the 1950s and 60s, they had the decency to bring social scientists into the fold and give them fancy new names like 'human factors engineering' and 'cybernetics'. Now, people consider it mindblowing that user experience matters.
