  4. Re:Nothing to surprising on Marx May Have Had a Point · · Score: 1

    I think everyone knew that even Capitalism has its down sides, we just agreed that they were acceptable. Yeah, he may have been right, but it's nothing we didn't already know.

    So, if it's nothing we didn't already know, we should just ignore it.

    Hmmmm, +5 Interesting ?

  5. Re:Just in time... on E Ink Demos New Displays, Gadgets At IFA 2011 · · Score: 1

    I said that e-ink was probably a better option, because the reader could use less power when a distracted kid leaves it turned on. Now, there's hope for the benefits of both!

    The problem with e-ink is that, so far, it won't display multimedia files (video) that a lot of ebooks are starting to come out with. See Amazon

  8. Re:Well duh on Laptops In the Classroom Don't Increase Grades · · Score: 1

    The problem is, teachers somehow got the idea in the last generation or so that they shouldn't have to follow rules or have their classrooms besoiled by outside influences like curricula.

    It isn't the teachers, it's admin. I lived in NY City most of my life and have a lot of teachers in my family. The administration stops them from applying tried and true methods of getting kids to learn. The result is that the kids are reading and writing at a 4th grade level when they go to high school, and they go because they're force fed through the educational system without any regard to what they actually know.

  18. Re:Reboot on What Happens After the Super-Hero Movie Bubble? · · Score: 1

    Reboot, remake, etc. is all fine and good for older material (lets say 20+ years old), my problem is the recent trend to reboot too soon, see the recent Hulk movies, and now the NEW Spiderman reset.
