Oh my goodness, how did I miss that in ES7 you can use a closure as a method. Goodbye `bind()`, you will not be missed :)

e.g.,

```js
class A {
b = () => console.log(this)
}

const a = new A()
a.b() // A { b: [Function: b] }

const c = a.b
c() // A { b: [Function:b] }
```

Nice! :)

**Edit**: Be careful with this. See this note by @marsup: mastodon.social/@marsup/113799

MastodonMarsup (@marsup@mastodon.social)@aral@mastodon.ar.al Respectfully, this looks like an anti-pattern. `b` won't be part of the prototype, potentially preventing some meta programming, and you're going to get a new `b` for each instance of that class, consuming that much more memory for each instance you hold.

okay yeah this is definitely good

METHODS POST I mean it's trivial but

* put your yeast and sugar into the warm water like always

* let it activate the usual 10 minutes (or however)

* add rounded 1/4 cup onion flakes, stir in well

* let them rehydrate in the mix for 3 minutes

* mix into drys and proceed as usual

trust me on this one if you like onions it's dang good

The phrase “go get my #PhD” intrigues me.

It implies people have a PhD lying around somewhere and it just takes a few years to go get it. As someone who got a PhD…

I think that’s basically true.

Loads of us learn a PhD’s-worth about SOMETHING — our family, local school system, favorite TV genre, etc. Reaching the edge of knowledge isn’t that hard.

The hard part is doing justice to the #history, reproducibly describing your #methods, and clearly documenting the #knowledge (and sources).

Internet research community: please hit me up with your favorite articles (by you or other people) that do a great job of demonstrating different types of qualitative research online.*


* Purposely ambiguous: this could be research conducted online, or research about something online, or something else I’ve not yet thought of. I’m trying to create a small library of exemplars for my seniors who are dipping their toes into #research #methods for the first time. #AoIR

Happily joining today University of Frankfurt am Main (aka Goethe Uni, GU) for a position to teach #anthropological #theory, #ethnographic #methods & #ScienceAndTechnologyStudies. My new academic base is GU's Institute of Cultural Anthropology & European Ethnology, @KAEEGoetheUni.

Fun plan: use this base to continue exploring theoretical roots of #STS in #sociology, #anthro, engage with #geography takes on STS. Meanwhile continuing research with #MaterialSemiotics. #introduction 4 assemblage.es

This is my re #introduction after moving to this server. My name is Josh Hill, and I’m a PhD in #criminaljustice. I focus mostly on quantitative #methods which means I’ve spend a lot of time outside my regular field, and lately have been doing mostly #marinescience. I’m also interested in all things #jewish, including #yiddish, and am becoming increasingly observant.

I finally deleted the #birdapp, so plan on spending more time over here and I look forward to an increasingly active community!

Haven't written a real #introduction yet. I am a #university #scholar in #NewZealand, working on #methods that fall into realm of #complexity #science. One key focus is to understand events that cause systemic #change despite sitting at margins of statistical significance. We do a fair bit of #nlproc, sequence and network analysis. Applications are in #psychology #digitalhumanities #climate science Computational Social Science et al. I also study design & operation of socio-technical systems.

So #introductions

I'm Clark

From #NorthCarolina though now up in #Dundalk

Recently finished my #PhD in #communications at #DCU and have been teaching #methods with #sociology at #Maynooth

My research concerns #interdisciplinary approaches to #methodology and #pedagogy for #SocialScience in #HybridSociety

But really I care about #teaching and that's the long and short

#solidarity through #education is about our only hope

That's me. Greetings all!
