Teachers are paid for 40 hours per week. And not well. Current starting salaries are enough to afford to live in a ditch.

They teach 5 classes per day. They get 1 period free when students cannot come into their classroom. Plus 1 hour before school and 1 hour after school when students can come in.

The system thinks grading papers and preparing lessons are free services that teachers provide.

The system will do anything but hire more teachers so that they each can have 3 periods per day and spend the rest of the time grading, prepping, and helping students during their paid hours.

Don't worry, the skilled trades will be devalued as well. They already are.

Companies just don't want to pay proper wages and will make every lame excuse they can to justify it.

Most people who work full time struggle just to pay rent.

They aren't "irresponsible."

They have to pay their rent and put food on the table. If business owners paid living wages, people wouldn't be playing games just to survive.

There are no shortage of stores you can go into today where these "job creators" have one poverty wage employee working.

That's all this is about. Skilled labor thinks they're worth money. Unskilled labor can be paid minimum wage.

It's long past time for developers to unionize and stop playing the game of letting rich people oppress workers by demeaning them to justify poverty wages.

It remains ridiculous that schools continue to view themselves as extrajudicial courts where they get to demand your testimony and then extract pretext to punish you according to their sensibilities of the moment.

Keep in mind you are often not allowed to have legal counsel but they start by telling you "oh just an informality"*

pay for them.

You pay for 40 hours a week, you get 40 hours a week.

At this point virtually all the multi-billion dollar tech companies are American or Chinese. Europe's combined startup revenue over the last 50 years is less than Home Depot. The EU's GDP has been Welp, THAT was a big mistake.

If you want to set ground rules fine. But if the output of *your particular attempt* at it is to get effectively zero innovation and declining economic output, shouldn't the conclusion be "wow we seem to be really bad at this we may need to adjust our approach"?

as if 2 voices cried out in terror and then were silenced.

virus and malware have been doing this forever. The difference is that they are very small programs so they can do this instantly.

If you get the USB-3 cable, you can use the Quest as a standard VR headset connected to your PC. Since the Switch 2 has far better hardware than the Switch and USB-C video out, that makes it possible in theory for the Quest to be a VR headset for the Switch 2 as well.

Of course not.

Work the hours you're paid. Go home.

We already know how to build cheap high density housing with shared resources: Motel 6.

Shared bathrooms are not ideal. Every unit needs its own full bath so people can keep themselves clean.

A bed and a space to work are sufficient. Basically, a one-bedroom apartment minus the kitchen. The kitchen should be a community resource with staff like is done for public schools.

"Kids" seems an odd place to draw the line in this case. I think most adults also are a bit vulnerable stepping into a complete stranger's car and might also prefer not to be assaulted?

Believe it or not there are lots of pedagogical approaches besides "assign and grade homework assignments."

And without getting in to the many alternatives, it's pretty easy to to solve this problem just by (a) all work is optional, only graded for those who want feedback (b) all evaluation is conducted by end-of-term -- or end-of-degree -- in person testing. In that case there would be zero incentive or benefit to use generative AI for assignments (other than as a study aid).

The reason that would not be exceptionally popular is because universities, rather than being forums for the great ideas of the world to be pursued by the adept, are now a place to shove listless young adults, stamp them with the correct views, and push them out with a coming of age certificate. Impediments due to lack of ability, dedication, or character are considered problems for the university to deal with, usually by finding a way to make those issues less relevant to the final outcome.

So you have to create hundreds of opportunities to get some kind of non-exam credit and half of your job is begging pleading and pushing for students to submit enough of that work to pass. And that kind of work tends to be easy to passably output with AI. But you really don't have to provide an education that way.

To recap, you believe Jared Isaacman is unqualified to head NASA, and your evidence is... that you lost a package recently?
