I believe I have this pdf on my computer somewhere and every time I scroll past it I wonder what it's about. I always think it's someone angry at the software company but seeing it here I'm pretty sure it must be this paper.

Thanks for posting it. Skimming the content I think there are some arguments in it, that I can agree with but I'll have to give it a closer read before I can form an opinion. The title is hard to beat and I love that it got published this way. Seems fitting.

As a non-native speaker I have never heard of nuance in the context of sociological research. Google mostly redirects to this exact paper or references about it. I figure it has something to do with precision of description. Could someone enlighten me?
