I don't think school should emulate work.
Learning (well) isn't easy, attention spans are limited and after some time you get rapidly diminishing results.
I personally like the sound of inverting the structure we use for learning, meaning assigning the "theory" as homework and using class time to discuss or apply it afterwards.
At least that has the benefit of letting every student manage their time, spending more time on harder (for them) subjects.
Came here to say this. You think it's a joke but the joke's on you
I'm kinda amazed I read all of that
Agreed. Just crushed a pizza and the crust was awesomely good
God is dead and we killed him
I never got that Gameboy I wanted, but that's OK, I'm made up for it using emulators years later.
This is just typical the industry, they release a new one instead of just fixing the known bugs in the current version like erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation.
Just one more cash grab.
USB-A's legacy lives on
First, don't listen to his opinions on anything that isn't about comouters and software. He doesn't have a good track record there.
Do pay attention to his takes on technology and freedom, there's a lot of food for though there.
I was at one of his talks recently, and he's definitely and eccentric fellow. When it comes to free software he's a die hard extremist, and I have a feeling he knows and to a certain extent he does that on purpose. Case in point, he mentioned how he refused hearing aids and would similarly refuse a pacemaker as there are none running on free software.
As such, that's how I take his ideas about free software: a good philosophy taken to the extreme to showcase what'd be possible if we went all in on that, and the dangers of not doing it. Definitely not something that can work for everyone, or a realistic pathway to a world of free software.
I do think, however, that someone like him is fundamental to advance the cause of free software, even if no one takes him literally and emulates his way of life.
I'm not gonna refuse a life saving treatment or device because it runs on propriety software, but I am willing to sacrifice some convenience to use a free software alternative when available.
Windows licenses AFAIK are already rarely bought on their own. The vast majority of users get one by having it bundled to a new device they purchase.
I bought the Fairphone 5 and yeah, I miss not having the jack and I see no reason to take it out
New Zealand get your shit together
Assume nothing, wash everything
In the wise words of Dr. Cox, if they removed all porn from the Internet there would be only one website left, saying bring back the porn.
Trans women are women, asshole
Teens acting like teens.
There are writings dating back to ancient Greece of people complaining about young people and how stupid/lazy/whatever they are compared to the previous generations.
Maybe we can drop that one already.
Because using proprietary standards puts you at the mercy of the technology owner
I gave them 10, just in case
The hype train is absolutely dangerous.
The anticipation for HL3 would be terribly high, and so would be the expectations of millions of lovers of the franchise, making sure anything other than a perfect game would be met with lots of negative reactions.
And it's not just about a single game either. A bad HL3 could end up tarnishing the legacy of the other titles, forever ruining what is now a beloved franchise. Remember what happened to Game of Thrones? Who would ever risk something like that happening? Or, speaking of games, look at how much goodwill Bethesda burned with the release of Starfield.
What happened? I've never heard of it
Maybe next month May
Bonus points I discovered after a bachelor's degree and most of a master's:
If you pay attention in class you'll understand most of the material, and the rest you can ask the professors directly. Truly astounding.
Didn't know that, that's fine then
Lots of countries are trying to encourage births, his approach is just a bit more... Direct. Enacting policies? Just tell people to bump uglies more!
Also, given South Korea's population is projected to decline sharply, having more soldiers to throw in the frontlines would be a strategic advantage in a future war.
Agree. They can't reject them without exposing their transphobia
From what I remember the chip itself is pretty small, the size is all due to the cooling component.
Also keep in mind you've probably seen a development version of a quantum computer, where things are set up to be easily accessible to allow fixing and tinkering, without regard for size and optimization of space.
Yes, you can run Linux in a VM.
But also: you should be able to access your Windows partition from Linux, as it supports NTFS and FAT filesystems, and view the files there.
What I do is I have one partition with Windows, one with Linux, and a third one (with an NTFS file system) for the files I need to access from both.
There's a lot to unpack here. My two cents are:
Looked up from this meme at my setup and, you guessed it, dual monitor and RGB keyboard
Trans rights!
As a former picky eater, lots of foods. Most notably sushi (used to dislike all fish), and bell peppers that moved from disgusting to delicious.
Lots of music. As most kids do (or used to before streaming was a thing) I was locked in a limited set of genres, but I've come to appreciate songs I'd have never considered back then.
It keeps getting heavier too
I bet it's the other one
I find the thought of eating insects disgusting.
That said, I think outlawing or opposing it is so absurd it's ridiculous. Just like banning lab meat.
Don't want to eat it? Then don't. But why should you force that choice on others? I suspect this is nothing more than political shenanigans in most cases, just another topic with an easy gut answer to stir up the masses over nothing at all.
Say you're a dictator without saying you're a dictator

I've washed shoes in the washing machine a few times, using the setting for delicate clothes. So far no damage to be seen and they come out clean.
Probably not something that should be done every other day, but once in a while seems fine.
You slut
