The title of pt. 2 is How our education system is far from its original ideals . It's available on apple and audible.

GN did a documentary on the situation from the perspective of consumer-facing companies. Seems pretty dire for them, and it's hard to see the long-range consequences, but the idea of consumers being priced out isn't too far out, w

Yeah, while going through college I had that exact thought, I wonder if in many fields we're at a tipping point where we should be conveying what we don't know more than what we do.

Y'know it's funny how, at least in my experience, education worked. We're handed a bunch of simplified models then build on them. The consequence being that the landscape is very narrowly revealed. This itself is a consequenc

I have a 2018 WRX and I was considering removing the "telematics" module and updating the head unit to something more modern so I could use Android Auto but I was thinking that through and was immediately irked by the idea that I&

It feels like there's been a significant cinching of personal rights recently. I wonder if it has anything to do with crypto's relatively recent adoption by institutional movers. NordVPN offers crypto payments, I expect virtually

They need real, tangible, meaningful threats. Corporal or social. Doling out talkings-to, ISS, OSS, bad grades and repeat courses are a relative joke. I spent uncountable hours in ISS for truancy, was made to walk miles to school, kicked of

I think corporal punishment makes sense when it makes sense. If a kid runs out into the road without looking it makes sense to slap em upside the head, a much milder surrogate for getting hit by a car. I think it ceases to be a good form of

As a vegetarian that regularly uses plant-based substitutes: I'm super reluctant to believe a market for a product like Beyond ever existed. Between Beyond and Impossible they've got this weird chimera market, especially the latte

It definitely feels like it is gone. Of course I'm largely talking about the applications that I use, e.g. MS Word which is still using the searchless 1980s character map and has a crazy esoteric add-on installation process. It's

I would think the argument for this is that it would enable and facilitate more advanced environments. There's also plenty of games with fully explorable environments, I think it's more of a scale and utility consideration. I can&

Isn't yield relative? Take a bell pepper for instance, perhaps one grown in x soil another in y, the nutrient contents will vary even if one is clonal. There have been some rumblings about the nutrient qualities of certain food goods.

There isn't presently a good solution to this. I think regulations like that will probably have downstream effects, kicking the can down the road. Google is already bad enough at government collusion, divulging data, as are other infra

I didn't read the writeup. The result was pretty gnarly. The active area on a phone left me scrolling up and down and I had to go very slow once I got purchase on the knob or it would rotate back after a quarter turn. Please no.

I think you have a point, at the resolution of personal liability shit is and has been cooked. Without being able to hold people to account for their misdeeds, misdeeds are de facto allowed and especially when you can obfuscate information.

I expect that r.i.c.e. was overfit. Asian imports are called riceburners, ostensibly because asian cultures consume a lot of rice. I guess it could be contrived as racist, but it's relatively harmless in the scope of things... I'm

Toothpaste is not a complicated compound to make. The question is one of optimization. What size (mechanical) or what type of keratin is most suitable, or do we depolymerize (chemical) it first or let oral enzymes do it..? Is brushing as-

Core77 is so broken for me. I can hardly load half an article before it bricks my tab on Firefox for Android. Really disappointing, it was one of my favorite feeds for boredscrolling. C'est la vie.

I love this, kinda vindicated my behaviors. I won't run in thunderstorms and I have trouble justifying getting out once the temperature tips above 80. Looking at such a disciplined runner I see similar traits. Unfortunately these are b

I've played for many years including CS1.6, CS:S, GO, and 2. I regularly snoop profiles and overwhelmingly there are accounts with 1 game, all F2P games, short account lives, low hours (CS2, GO + account), low or no commendations, low

What do you think the consequences of a shake-out like this will be? Asking as a prospective grad student nearing the end of my BS. I've heard locally we're cutting graduate programs down and similarly from other institutions.

There's usually indirect reproduction. For instance I can take some principle from a study and integrate it into something else. The real issue is that if the result is negative - at least from my understanding - the likelihood of publ

I don't think it's so much that they don't have ideas it's that they're competing with Alphabet's Chrome, who are coincidentally owners of Android, Gmail, YouTube and Google which are internet keystones. I

So they put someone who is vehemently anti-vaccine at the head of a study, and when this individual finally concludes with data in hand that they're safe, what is the ultimate message and who does it affect, and how?

The UI is awful, Discord volume isn't exposed, no option to do it, either, so you have to adjust game audio or individual user audio. They put the whole kitchen sink in, for some reason, too, there's a text chat in the voice rooms

Anecdotally, this is true even as an adult. As a non-trad student the application side of things as they are taught are fairly effete, we learn how to translate graphs in algebra, quadratics, polynomials... I don't recall much in the w
