  1. Net Neutrality maybe? on Google Ready To Unleash Thousands of Balloons In Project Loon · · Score: 1

    I haven't had the time to read over all the new FCC rules regarding Net Neutrality yet...but perhaps there's something in there about classifications of wireless networks versus data providers?

  2. Re:That 'study' is full of shit ! on US Dept. of Education Teams With Microsoft-Led Teach.org On Teacher Diversity · · Score: 1

    The government is listening because they want an "easy" answer to a problem. Example from my work: Individual "A" has clear step by step procedures to complete task "X" Individual "A" did not complete task "X" satisfactorily. Reality: Individual was at fault, he did not take the time to fully read and understand the instructions. Correction: Individual was disciplined and counseled to fully read and understand the instruction. Government response: How can we ensure this will never ever happen again? Reality: We can't
    If all you feel you need is a teacher that is qualified then you are not in the LCD that this study is going after. We, as humans, are the unknown factor in all these things...

  3. Firing the BS Flare on US Dept. of Education Teams With Microsoft-Led Teach.org On Teacher Diversity · · Score: 1

    I'm a native English speaker, my wife and step-children are asian, in our house we code-switch between a few languages (English, Tagalog, and Cebuano) throughout the day. When my kids aren't in school I supplement their education their education using websites like KhanAcademy. My son speaks Cebuano, very little English or Tagalog, my older daughter is fluent in Tagalog and knows some English, my youngest speaks Tagalog and is doing well with English. While we go through the various courses on these websites I provide guidance in each of their languages, this is where we both learn more of each others languages (When I'm feeling silly I'll throw in some Gaelic). First, I'll say math is effin awesome for crossing the spoken language barrier (I hated it when I was a kid). My point is that language or race is the problem, its engagement. While schools are very much there to teach, parents (in whatever form) are the primary educators. That is the bigger problem IMO. How to motivate parents to take an active role in motivating their children?

  4. Re:Systemic and widespread? on The Courage of Bystanders Who Press "Record" · · Score: 1

    Falsifying a report and planting evidence is technically not corruption. If the individual received something of material gain from another by his actions that would be corruption. Is he corrupt? May be he is. I'm not in a place to look at the real facts on the case. However, unless he was directed to fabricate evidence by someone that had influence over him it is simply falsification of official documentation.
