There really are few good math instructors out there. They tend to be those who have intuitions about the subject who can’t interact with people who weren’t born with them.

My previous office was in a set of partitions put up in a library 20 years ago as a temporary measure.

My university requires two for the CS program, as I recall.

That seems to be the consensus.

Oh wow. Thanks

I wonder if day length is given separately in a table prior to the question? I’m not sure what they wanted except maybe seconds?

10% of 8 billion is still many hundreds of millions. That’s a huge number. More: it’s a number we have to stop pretending is not a big deal and get to work to fix ourselves as a species.

Scientists are trained to do exactly the opposite. Whatever you are saying here, it is not based on any real experience you have.

Some people develop extreme skills while never learning how to interact with others.

I had to scroll down to see what you mean. Shocking that people really still don’t understand how privilege works.

I think you’re right. People want to believe that humans are good but in reality a huge number are deeply broken.

Fixed an autocorrect in edit.

Understanding and producing are very different things.

This is my experience. I can understand the fundamentals without trouble but don’t have the ability to plan out the structure of something and write code to make that work.

I’ve done online courses, tried boot camps. It just doesn’t work for me.

It’s not religion that’s the problem. It’s bad people. Religion becomes a vehicle for bad people to do bad things to vulnerable people.

Otherwise go ahead and do your meditations, rain dance, or give to your earth god for all I care.

That’s going to be a lot more work since comments and posts are decentralized here. You can probably easily get some of it but it will be hard to get all of it.

The GOP surely inspired some part of this.

I used to work for a web hosting company and have seen so many horror cases that I agree with you that this is what is happening. I also think it’s kinda lazy to just say that they won’t support what people are using because it’s hard. Even 5 - 7 years ago, this was much harder than it is now.

We got it for funsies and went through the final Spanish test. We’re both fluent speakers, he’s native. We were unable to pass the final tests–not because we didn’t speak Spanish, but because it was actually a subjective interpretation of what was being said rather than an objective one, btu they treated it like it were objective. Basically you have to learn it THEIR way. As a linguist, this is a big no-no and I walked away.

I pretty much instantly lose respect for people who design sites to only support specific browsers. With the exception of Firefox, it’s all Chromium anyway so they don’t really need to worry about it. This isn’t like when Internet Explorer was a thing and broke web pages.

Both require a license and that license is revocable in both cases. It’s pretty much impossible to enforce the legal use of physical media, so they don’t. Rather, they go after those making copies.

If you ever want to REALLY own your media, make sure it is physical.
