First versus second language is not really an issue if the child is young enough. And after a certain age children will speak the same way as their peers in the same age group no matter what their parents try to do.
It's *sounds* good to set a "minimum wage", but H-1B abuses are not about money, they're about abusing workers in every other way. Employers have no problem paying a worker for 40 hours work at a fair wage since they can pressure them into working 80 hours.
They want someone else to train their alternate workforce so they can pretend there's competition to push down the wages of their actual workforce but not good enough competition to force them to stop hiring foreigners.
A minor on school property/using school property doesn't have the same expectation of privacy that an adult on private property does, but what worries me is the potential for false positives from things being taken out of context, and the potential for something inappropriate but small scale to get escalated to a point where more harm than good is done.
A universal basic income looks great on paper - what's your point?
I don't think it's a bad idea, but it troubles me that there's been very little thought about the long-term impacts it might have. What would it do to the concept of minimum wage? Will people really be happy not contributing to their community? How will abuses and fraud be prevented? These are not trivial details.
Everyone in the job now might quit, but some people now in more demanding jobs will be happy to take their place. If everyone has enough to live on, there will be some who want a little extra money and would be willing to work an unchallenging job, perhaps on a part-time basis, to have a little bit better standard of living.
A universal basic income will simply subsidize industries currently not paying their workers enough to live on.
Unless I'm looking for TV listings if Google returns TV listings it means the search algorithm is broken. There are websites which catalogue them just fine, and I have them bookmarked. It's not as though TV listings are hard to find or require clever algorithms.
Stop trying to guess what I want - we've all used by Google by now, if I want TV listings I will look for them. I'm not a child so don't assume what I ask for in the search somehow isn't what I'm really looking for.
If I'm not actually looking for a TV listing (and there are perfectly good sites dedicated to that which I already have bookmarked), then showing TV listing in the search results means the search algorithm is broken.
Stop trying to (unsuccessfully) guess what I want and show me the results I'm telling you I want. By now we've all used Google and we know how it works.
it's broken on the most basic measure: Performance.
I'm pretty sure the most basic measure is funnelling money to contractors. So far that seems to be the *only* thing it can do successfully. *Everything* has been compromise for the sake of that objective.

If only we had some kind of calculating device that could reference a table of tax rates updated on a regular basis
Legislators are constantly making sure that that isn't a practical solution.
I'm pretty sure that at the surface of the Earth the umbra of the International Space Station is too small to eclipse anything.

Feature, not a bug. Windows is by design a malware delivery system.
And, like the unicorn of mythology, the valuation is fictional.

What on Earth do the other half think? Of course it's rigged - they're completely open about it. Superdelegates aren't a secret.
I think it's sickening to have these puppy factions undermining the awards process.
Which books are the kittens recommending?
Next you'll tell us that political science isn't a rigorous experimental science.

Those are reasonable. It's the lax laws in the other places that are unreasonable.
They'll wait until the media gets distracted by something. So, any day now.

It's high school. It doesn't matter anymore.
In fairness, that does make it relevant to the topic.
Shouldn't it be Area 125?

Lucky the thing flies.
Actually that part is bad. It won't crash if it doesn't leave the ground.
the most unfair airplane in history
By what measure of fairness, exactly?
