A judge this month rejected a legal challenge by Mr. Perkins and others, who argued the recall violated Missouri's Constitution.
Some are thinking that a recall election violates their state's constitution? If that was the case, your constitution needs some working on!
FCC: "Over the last month we've received many comments requesting that we do X, but we disagree with that, so we're going to ignore all your comments and go ahead with Y anyway."
Regardless, most students at Berkeley don't need Calculus 1. And if students do need it, but aren't ready, then send them to the next class down until they are ready.
Calculus 1 pretty much is the lowest-level math class at Berkeley. There's a math fundamentals refresher class, which is for people who are pretty much at pre-calculus level. But if they're saying students really don't understand fractions, it's a mystery how they even got into Berkeley. California has an amazing community college system that will teach you all the way down to basic algebra if you need it, and once you spend a couple of years there, there are easy avenues to transfer to the many high-quality California four-year schools. I sense the op-ed author has an axe of some kind to grind, because even without the SAT, it's not like admissions to Berkeley aren't competitive.
We seem to be in a parallel to Rural Electrification now.
If someone lives five miles from the nearest connection, currently on 100A AC and POTS, is the limited budget better spent on running five miles of fiber or dropping off a satellite terminal?
They'll be going from either 3Mbps DSL to 300Mbps satellite or 800Mbps fiber.
If we had unlimited money I'd say fiber almost everywhere. But that isn't realistic.
The flip side is some of these rulings which ought to be applied to edge cases may well be applied to areas where FTTH is entirely reasonable and achievable.
Government almost always sucks at applying broad rules without subtlety at both the median and the far sigmas.
I live in an area where welfare broadband is offered for about $15/mo for about 60Mbps. Frankly I could live with that almost all the time. I do download some massive datasets every few months but my smoothed average is probably 2% of my max.
But those welfare programs exist because society has decided that some Internet is required for participation so there is some responsibility to provide.
The bigger risk is probably dual-use dangers. Ukraine has been using Starlink for terrorist attacks and while Musk has said he cut them off the Russian FM has warned that Russia will take out the Starlink constellation if it continues because apparently it is.
So we don't run fiber and then Starlink goes away, and then what?
There are also ice storms, hurricanes, tornados, wildfires, etc. that can take out landines for months so having a few satellite terminals in an area would be more antifragile.
FCC is seemingly treating this as simple when it's complex.
It's not the SCREEN that does the damage, it's the brain rot the screen is used to access. Also the amount of time speant with the screen. Moderation is good. This shouldn't surprise people, but since it is a nuanced understanding and not just screen bad!, it will.
Is there doubt?
> We have a massive shortage why is nobody stepping up to make more supply?
Look up some stuff instead of just commie ranting.
Apple is testing supply from an up-and-coming DRAM supplier in China. Hynix is working on converting old fabs into a smaller process to create more fast RAM. TSMC is building a fab in Arizona. Samsung is opening a fab in Texas next year.
> the big three can anytime they want drastically increase production within 6 months to a year
Tell me you've never been to a fab without telling me you've never been to a fab.
If they could double their capacity Altman would buy *that* too. At least presume that the greedy capitalists are greedy.
> Capitalism needs a referee and US dumbasses fired the ref.
How, precisely, did they accomplish this coup in China?
Also, why not move to China, Cuba, or North Korea? They have varying degrees of central planning that should take care of your needs. Nobody wants you to be unhappy.
Reenlisting is tougher since you already got your GI Bill and VA Benefits and such.
On a recent talk show a military guy was saying that DoD was instrumental in nationalizing the student loans under Obama.
They knew infinite money for school would jack up the price of school for everybody but unaffordable college is what drives people to the GI Bill and their recruiting was dragging ass after the last time a President lied us into war in the Middle East over made-up claims of weapons of mass destruction (and then promised to leave Iraq and close Gitmo).
Say what you want about TikTok but the kids all know about the scam now. They didn't even bother trying to convince the country this time.
Have we had a story here about the record-short procurement process last month for the new Draft management software?
Re-enlist and we can swap your life force for [whatever these fucks are actually trying to achieve over there with ItsNotReali monsters]
Yes, to expand on your point - just looking at demographics the Democrats tend to skew younger and the Republicans tend to skew older.
Emotional maturity tends to skew older as well, so it offers two possibilities:
1) The results would be the same based on age, not politicial affiliation.
2) People with less maturity tend to want echo chambers, those with emotional control can more easily engage with challenging opinions.
There are other studies that look at gender, mental health status, psych meds, etc based on party that could be tossed into the mix if somebody wants to do real analysis of variance.
It's hardly worth it IMO as the X feed is not designed to help people reach their highest state of enlightenment. Hooking people for ads is inherently limbic hijacking so any data derived from that is going to not reflect the participants' best minds.
The primary benefit of Verizon is their VHF 5G band, for a "call 911 device". Probably not important in cities.
In the meantime I got an unlocked Pixel 8 for $220 so I need to replace that 3x to make repairing interesting.
I am not good at screen replacement - busted two Pixels trying that.
'Linked' may be too strong
Associated, correlated, OK.
Like ice cream sales are 'linked' with crime rates.
Which is just a textbook example of "ignoring a common cause".
Social Science papers are more abour PR and H-index today than stats.
The benefit is for key distribution because you know whether that distribution has been intercepted or not.
The rest is more interesting than useful at this point. Clearly someone clever will find new uses in the future
Jesus Fucking Christ. It's 2026, Trump has been putting his boot on the necks of major networks and studios for a year and a half now. I realize you probably fell into a coma in 2016, but ten years later, the free press, regardless of what you think of it, or fair you imagine it is, is under direct assault. Fuck off with the "MSM" bullshit and grow the fuck up.
BOTH screwed up. The system shouldn't have made the match and the human should have done a better job seeing that the match was wrong. I'll go one larger and say the people who created the procedures screwed up because they didn't make allowances for the possibility of the first two screw-ups.
Before Xerox, five carbons were the maximum extension of anybody's ego.
