Right. And software developers do not know how to build a computer and integrated circuits from scratch. But they should know how their fucking language is arranging and manipulating data in memory. You grabbed the wrong metaphore and I would venture to say you have no ideas how your tools work either.
Yeah. Let it go to production. Swoop in and fix it once the shit has hit the fan--you are the hero. This is how we do.
If I fix things ahead of time I piss people off, end up doing their job for them, and they get credit. I would rather obtain hero status and the pay/perks that go along with it.
These days those schools have all the best teachers and lots of extra classes to choose from (D&D, Chemistry, Biology, advanced maths) and AP classes galore. We do not have the money of the public schools but the outcome and experience are much better. I spend about $4k per year...not including trips to Europe etc...
I have known teachers to work in restaurants until a job opened up in the school where they wanted to teach. They could have gotten a job instantly in aplace where no one wants to teach. Degreed, certified, ready to teach, waiting tables or working as a restaurant manager while they wait--patiently. There is an oversupply.
Just an old tactic to reduce the amount of time you have to yourself. Every cult uses this tactic in one way or other. Keep em busy...no time to think or be a part of something else.
Agreed. Though, as a student you can make a stand and teachers (who do not get a cut typically) don't care if you use a book that you bought on Amazon for $9 that is a five years old. They mix up the chapters a bit but it is still doable. I refused to keep buying new text books for $120 when I could get the same thing for literally $10. Navigating the mixed up chapters was not a hindrance and the teachers didn't mind if there was a small blip in content. Most of them hate the text book system. My math professor wrote his own books and sold them in the bookstore for cost--much better experience. He was a ferocious rebel and rabble-rouser in the professor's union.
These people have an absolute hard-on when it comes to new buildings. When I worked at the college the administration decided they wanted a new building. Everyone opposed it but the administration who was successful in stamping out debate and who held the purse strings (issuance of debt actually). Some lucky broker house in New York got to issue a bond (for a southern Ohio country school) and we went into debt during a time when student enrollemnts where dropping dramatically (recently cut in half at the time they built the new building). The art department, by far the most vibrant and enjoyable community inside the college, was decimated in the process--gone. The art department and its students and alumni were probably the only group you could have called a community at all. Everyone else was at each other's throats most of the time or had little engagement from the students.
Unlike our non-existant laws on false advertising you are not allowed to suggest or imply in any way that you are an incumbent when running for office--if you are not the incumbent. Not that it really matters materially but the suggestion that you are an incumbent dramatically increases your chances of being elected. I recall an election (don't remember which) where the challenging candidate sort of suggested he was the incumbent--all hell broke loose. (I think he used signs that said "Re-Elect such and such") Good luck getting our politicians to police shady suggestions in corporate advertising though.
They were waiting for someone real to come to the table and tell them they had a bigger rocket. Trump basically roasted this guy on the world stage and now he capitulates? On the surface I think this is great. I would like to hear "denuclearization" and "demilitarization" be thrown around some more but I doubt the media would be allowed to cover that for very long without being forced to trash them instead. We are spending our future in a perpetual standoff with eachother. There is probably a better way.
Good point. Mainstream media is the "they should make a law" crowd where every answer to every issue is crafting a law in Washington DC. Corporate giants love that shit...they want everyone looking to government which they control...usually...save for the Trump fiasco.

This allegory has run its course and was of little value anyway. Please stop.
"There really is no performance hit for strings as a primary key."
Yeah...if each string is sortable and comes immediately after the last one.

"steady supply of less educated or impoverished to supply your military."
Good point. Somehow this was lost from the debate.
We already established that it is funded...though I have to agree, improperly. We are paying too much.
...and you will still be standing still getting raped by "refugees." Peachy.

Another benefit of the job. They get PERS which is their money--investments which actually grow.

"the veterans are marking time until they can retire."
That is always a sign that the retirement benefits are too generous.

Thanks for the data.
$13,373 per pupil in 2014
$4000 per year in 2018 for my son in private school....much better experience...actually worth it.
You do realize that statistically, literally no one does that stuff right? .001 == 0
Are you under the impression that $100k a year is a lot of money?
Economics books are rarely helpful.
"Raising the minimum wage doesn't affect inflation,"
It would if it triggered a larger issuance of debt...which is a likely outcome.
Spot on.
But I say "Presidential, professional: Who gives a fuck. People want real."
Fake, pretend fuckers have been dragging us down into the ditch for far too long.
