They have $5.5 Billion, assume no interest income, a student costs $60K a year for 4 years to get a Bachelor's degree. Simple math states $60K*4 years* 4000 undergrads. That comes to a whopping $9.6 Billion cost. You can't count on interest income off that 5.5 bil because interest will go to zip when the market craps out like every democrat says. So, after 3 years were back to tax payers funding the students for free. Classic Socialism at its finest failure mode.
I hope their idea works but it just so happens the guy typing this paid his own tuition.
Just another shot at coming up with classes that result in no jobs. I guess the Universities have remembered how much money they made off basket weaving 101. But they get their tuition money!
Well, perhaps, just like India should have, they should care for their homeless and destitute before launching satellites. But hey, that would make sense in a liberal country like California... but the won't do it!
They'll have to cancel the train project just to pay for a tiny portion of a satellite with launch. Either that, or they'll just keep taxing the middle class so they keep moving out. Nothing wrong with that logic right?
Add in the following sentence from Wikipedia that includes the closure of a post office "On September 7, 2018, the site, which includes the Sunspot Solar Observatory and a post office, was closed due to what was described as a "security issue" resulting from "a credible threat". According to the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy (AURA), the observatory “will remain closed until further notice due to an ongoing security concern."
Almost sounds like someone sent an envelope full of a white powdery substance. Kinda old school now a day.
This one master/slave name change was pushed by the Mayor of San Francisco in the late 80s. If this one goes through the dumber we become! Just like statues of Southern war heroes, I've got an idea, if someone tears down a statue and the other side will rename streets so they are no longer MLK. This PC stuff just keeps driving divisive behavior just so the easily offended weak hearted that are scared of HISTORY will feel okay...in the foreground. In the background the govt. just plays the people as their pawns so their truth never comes to light... until it is too late... too late.
What is it with these kids? Anxiety is a part of life, if you don't learn to deal with it, sooner than later, your accomplishments in life will be minimal. The schools have turned these kids into powerful cowards. Powerful, yep, the teachers are afraid to upset parents as it will probably cost them their job, once again leading to anxiety on the teacher's side. Were these kids hatched by chance?
It's because the one car one person model is destroying the planet, and until we get rid of selfish people who think otherwise, we are in trouble
Okay, here are the results of your protection of the earth. 1: The big three die again. 2: Coal fired plants and nat gas will still be used to charge e-cars. Electricity costs go through the roof. zillions of jobs are lost in the automotive sector. I'm not a planet hater by any means, but government has a track record of screwing up anything they touch. Just wait for German style Socialism... must shut down nuke plants! Crap, we didn't realize we would run low on power, so lets buy coal generated electricity from another country! Well it sounded good at first, then nobody gave a crap. Don't forget to add in the govt. inspecting your house and finding that the roof insulation doesn't meet current code. As a homeowner you have to spend 50K Euro to replace your roof. And then of course the same inspectors realize there are too many cracks in the street in front of you house, that'll be another 30K Euro. In other words, you are in a hole with the first breath you take.
That is all they need, no more, no less. Get rid of the parole board as well, a sentence of 20 years means you stay in for 20 years, none of this "we are overcrowded shit" so let them out after two weeks. Prisons are not sanctuary cities, the inmates have restricted rights, unlike the CA illegals that get paid to be illegal.
Companies are realizing that AI is a buzz word. They have tried to take decades old technology, for example industrial motor vibration sensing and transmitting. Of course, that info needs to be analyzed by software to estimate when the motor should be replaced before it fails and shuts down the line. That basic software has been in use for about 20 years as well, just simple fixed case statements based on the level of detected vibration. Where in the heck is AI buried in that simplistic model? Is it when it goes into the cloud and there is some code reading the data from zillions of motors trying to determine the ideal number of hours run before recommending replacements? Okay, it takes a ton of vibration data and creates/modifies the values used in the case statement. Wow, that sure took a computer with a lot of brainz to figure out! AI uis the new buzz word for fuzzy logic that firmly planted its face in the dirt decades ago!
The University idea was a wonderful thing. Then, most of them being run by people of a particular political lean, kept building and making the campuses so opulent that tuition rates kept going up, and the Government kept giving out bigger and bigger student loans. So, perhaps now with the student loan debt bubble about to explode, Universities will scale down the spending stupidity. Back in 93 I was going to the University for a BSEE, got it in 4 years. Our classrooms were in dilapidated basements and trailers, but we still got a great education. The only difference was that we were able to get a 4 year degree and pay about $10,000 total. There was hardly ever a loan, usually a part time job would pay it off.
Now either inflation since 93 has been 300% and the govt has lied about it for decades, or the Universities have simply gone mad along with the State Governments! The Universities will go back to trailers and basements with the same teachers/professors, and a 4 year degree might come in around $20K, the way it should be!
Oh goodness me, Baltimorians are afraid of themselves and want to use technology used to kill folks in foreign wars. I can not state the cowardice any stronger. Do they truly believe that level of tracking is validated by their fear? I don't even have a camera outside of our home connected to the internet. I am also not stupid enough to put cameras and Amazon or Google listening post. Am I paranoid, hell no! I respect the privacy of others, I expect the same from them.
In May last year, it was struck by lightning and shut down. Since it was not repaired by the time of the Hurricane hit, they may have reached the decision that it would take more to fix it than it's payback would be. What was the ROI over the 15 years it ran? This seems to be a question that is never answered.
Really, I have read the results of the already tried experiments, one failed so miserably it was canceled after 4 months but the original goal was two years! I have always found that repeating the same failed experiment over and over again hoping for a better outcome shows a total lack of reviewing history, and downright stupidity.
What is the purpose of a commercial? To get time in the viewers life and encourage to buy or donate to whatever, in short, a suggestion. So how is their suggestion any different than a commercial? I'd be curious to see if Netflix will be pushing folks to watch shows that fit their liberal agenda. Any bets?
Actually the excuses of new ways of testing are needed on proven work of old is for nothing but making money for the researchers. 9 times out of 10 the government pays for it.
Just a modern version of the Nazi use of tattoos on the left forearm of the Jewish and the Gypsies. Have we as a country thrown out history as a valuable reference, or are we doomed to repeat?
How long until the LGBTQs and minorities insist on the same thing? I have nothing against anyone, unless they pass bills in CA, if the do, let them choke on all the leftover plastic straws, or use railroad weed since weed taxes are so high the companies are going out of business. Bloody vultures, each and every one of them.
Okay, I'll share a peak into my history when it comes to programming. Started out with raw assembler on 68xx and 8051 8 bitters. Complex and frustrating for the first six months but then it was easy. Then came the RISC parts in assembler not too bad to adjust to. Then I changed jobs and created programs to run on DOS for production end of line testing using QuickBasic. I literally said to myself this is for kids given it's absolute simplicity. Then I shifted to C on embedded micros, very nice as it gave you almost as much flexibility as assembly did, but in a far more human like language, so I found it to be perfectly in the middle of assembler and basic. As the embedded processors got bigger and faster I stayed with C and let all the young whipper snappers go down the path of C++/prime/sharp and so on. For me those spin-offs just added complexity that to this day I still say is overly complicated even when running on Cortex M4s. Of course somebody came out with a zillion RTOS's to make life easier. I never went the way of RTOS, but my co workers did and seem to like it. But over the years I've shifted from software/firmware to hardware. I write enough code now to validate the functionality of the hardware, and C works very well in that environment.
In short, I stuck with C and didn't bother with the babble and its complexities today. So, for embedded, I say C is the Language, it goes great with a bottle of Vodka too! But then of course there was a fellow I worked with 20 years ago that was stuck on embedded Fortran, he loved it!
How could you even think of doing something that terrible to Pelosi? How dare you! I believe the better approach would be to go Wizard of Oz on her, but instead of dropping a house on her, drop a barge! I'd just love to see those red and white striped socks shrivel up and disappear under the barge. But then I'd have to say something mean to her remains... the slippers are mine bitch!
You got me, SYG is different than the castle doctrine. In some states though, the SYG is included as a subset of the castle doctrine. For clarification, on the castle doctrine, it also covers you when you are in the outhouse, lean-to, garage, and dog house, ie anything that puts a roof over your head, including cars. It also covers when you are off your property but you are in your car.
Okay, by CA mandate they have created so much renewable energy that they have to pay others to take the excess. Keep that in mind and now how much money will the state have to pay daily to give away their excess stored energy? Just keep on mandating things and keep losing money, I guess that's why they have the $1000 fine for each plastic straw served in a restaurant!
