Many college students can do everything they need on a phone.

In fact, there are many things that only exist as apps on a phone.
Most of use can still choose iPhone or Android.

Linux has really become the way for servers. Many Linux devs use Mac & homebrew instead of Linux too.

How many Linux only desktop apps are there (I remember ones for all the Unixen with CAD, FPGA, etc)

What is keeping the apps on Windows or Mac? And driving them to iPhone/Android instead of Web?

You can see a word-by-word translation of the Greek:

And having made a whip of cords all He drove out from the temple the both sheep and the oxen and of the money changers He poured out the coins and the tables He overthrew. And to those the doves selling He said Take these things from here

I've reinserted the articles which that interlinear translation omits. On a grammatical level it's fairly clear that "both the sheep and the oxen" is expanding the "all" whom he drives out with the whip; and on a higher analytic level the fact that he tells the dove sellers to take their merchandise implies that they weren't driven out with the whip: to interpret that as saying that he used the whip on some merchants but not others according to what they were selling is a harder interpretation to defend than that the whip was used to drive the animals.

belted the shit out of greedy money changers grifting in the temple lobby.

This is a popular interpretation of the text, but a close reading doesn't really support it. It seems rather that he used a whip to drive out the animals but didn't use violence against people.

I'm seeing how using computers to teach elementary math isn't working. It needs to be taught with paper and pencil. There needs to be a certain amount of simple rote memorization for the basics like multiplication and division but that doesn't seem to be the point of emphasis.

Then fund education correctly.

To fund education correctly it would probably be around 70% of any given state's annual budget. It's expensive to fund education because to do it right takes a lot of qualified people. Most people don't want to pay so they push to lower the per-capita amount, which leads to education suffering accordingly.

In my experience, college was where instructors of all sorts (TAs, lecturers, professors) graded on a curve the most, and in my own personal case, was the only place I directly experienced grading on a curve. Having listened to my extended family of the prior generation, grading on a curve was already prevalent among colleges back in the sixties, and possibly well before that.

So what you propose in your second bullet point has not really ever been the standard, at least during the lifetime of the vast majority of Americans around today.

For those who learned the lesson to apply themselves to do the work in order to set themselves apart from lazy people, they see enabling lazy people as a slap in the face.

For those who are smart, they see faux-intelligence or faux-intellectualism out of people who are not capable of applying themselves but expect credit regardless.

For creative people who have and use skills to support themselves, they see enabling lackluster people who no actual interest in the artform trying to muscle-in.

For those who need information, they see substandard results that are of even further questionable veracity than what they could find before.

And for a whole lot of other people, they see something touted as labor-saving, ie, firing them.

There are legit reasons for sending battery data to a remote location. If a fire occurs you're going to want to know what led up to it, and information is often destroyed in the event of a fire.

Sliced? You buy up-market fish sticks. Hoi polloi have to make do with mechanically recovered meat bound with transglutaminase.

Apple Messages isn't social media at all. It competes only with SMS. Same with WhatsApp. I can maybe understand a judge concluding that buying WhatsApp didn't meaningfully stifle competition, because no platform for basic point-to-point communication is ever going to prevent competition by apps that come on your phone (e.g. Messages).

WhatsApp isn't just point-to-point: it has groups, which is how it was able to create its own network effect. And Apple Messages doesn't come on your phone if you have an Android.

What about people with licences from other states? Do they have to stop at a checkpoint on the border and sign their rights away?

Why do people give credit a performer of songs and not the author

Because the Internet is full of lyrics websites which attribute songs to a performer and don't give any information about the lyricist and composer, or even tell you that it was a cover.

I think it's also significant that the younger generation is coming up on Roblox and Minecraft. They see from the beginning that games with relatively primitive graphics can be fun.
