DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19697080 The automation of syntax does not reduce the need for meaning-layer work. It increases it. Logotic programming is the discipline of specifying, composing, and verifying meaning-states under automated translation. This essay traces the implicit second wing of software engineering and argues that the AI transformation of 2025-2026 forces its crystallization into a named discipline. Hex: 06.SEI.LP.AFTERSYNTAX.01
Abstract: Fatigue is a significant concern in aviation, impacting flight safety across all operational task and occupational fields. However, the concept of fatigue is not universally understood, and its effects differ between occupational fields in aviation. Contributing factors to fatigue (antecedents) are numerous and may differ by occupational group, with existing evidence varying significantly across groups. To address this, we analyzed each group separately to identify unique task characteristics and investigated the given findings on antecedents, systematically reporting and calculating effect sizes where available. This approach reveals that some occupational groups have been extensively researched while others have been largely neglected, and that most antecedents have been investigated using subjective methods, which may introduce measurement biases.
Researchers and practitioners have emphasised the importance of evaluating science communication, but agree that, on the one hand, much research on evaluation does not find its way into practice, and on the other, researchers do not fully benefit from the wealth of data that practitioners produce. Using semi-structured interviews with heads of communications at different research organisations in four countries we show that practitioners agree on the importance of evaluation, but that obstacles to evaluation cut across organisational characteristics and countries. Our interviews suggest that communications leaders have a strong interest in working with researchers, and we discuss their proposals for practice-research interfaces that could improve evaluation practice.
A large body of research has documented a positive link between narcissism and counterproductive work behavior (CWB). However, previous studies focused exclusively on explicit (self-reported) narcissism, thereby neglecting the role of implicit (indirectly measured) narcissism. Using a sample of 504 employees, the present investigation aimed for an integrative perspective. Applying a job-related narcissism questionnaire along with an implicit association measure of narcissism, for the first time, we address the question whether and to what extent explicit and implicit narcissism jointly influence CWB. Specifically, we show that the most toxic combination of narcissism (i.e., high explicit and high implicit narcissism) predicts the highest CWB levels. Explicit narcissism was positively related to CWB, and this relationship was stronger among individuals who were also high (vs. low) on implicit narcissism. Results suggest that implicit narcissism is an important, albeit hitherto neglected, determinant of CWB. The present work provides novel and valuable evidence on the role of implicit personality, which is crucial for understanding deviant behavior in the workplace.
