“School resource officers” shoot kids (and themselves) with terrifying frequency, the kids typically unarmed and often autistic/neurodivergent.

I kept having my bad vibes meter triggered by the italics so thanks for making the connection for me.


My spider sense was going off because they spend the first several pages constructing the most obtuse definition of Inflation without just saying it.


I've had state government (including both cops and clerks) refuse to acknowledge my digital ID in my state.

you are not the only one. There was a paper covering this exact topic in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences a few years back [0].

Passive learning (lecture) scored better on:

* Student Enjoyment

* Feeling of Learning

* Instructor effectiveness

* I wish all my courses where taught this way

Active Learning (i.e., not lecture) scored better on:

* Actual learning

The differences are not small.

I would guess it limits their ability to be accused of anythign to pick a plane, flight, and time that meets at least three criteria:

1) no passengers on board - you can't be accussed of endangering passengers

2) long past - you can't be accused of anything that happened recently

3) the plan literally no longer exists - you can't be accussed of damaging a plane


As someone who has worked in education for about a decade now, I use this quote a lot:

You can’t understand Google unless you know that both Larry and Sergey were Montessori kids. — Marissa Mayer


Sorry, I have no idea what to conclude from this. Can you explain?


There's a lot of luck in Larry and Sergey history.

It is not like they were Abel and Gauss as impressionable tech workers seem to think.


i'll bet there are a large number of systems that are dependent on multiple cloud platforms being up without even knowing it. They run on AWS, but rely on a tool from someone else that runs on GCP or on Azure and they haven't tested what happens if that tools goes down...

Common Cause Failures and false redundancy are just all over the place.


Case in point is recent-ish Google Cloud downtime, which ended up taking down Cloudflare and half the internet with it.


1) if this was big enough to get picked up on a 737 radar I think we would be having a very different conversation...

2) even if it did... rentry velocity is like miles per second, that would give you on the order of single digit seconds to recognize something on an intersecting trajectory and take action...

3) even then, I would bet that an object on this trajectory and speed would get filtered out as noise by aircraft radar because it is so antithetical to the types of things an airliner needs to inform pilots of.


I interpreted the comment as worrying about drift across many contracts not one contract changing.

Imagine I create a new agreement with a customer once a week. I’m no lawyer so might not notice the impact of small wording changes on the meaning or interpretation of each sequential contract.

Can I try and prompt engineer this out? Yeah sure. Do I as a non lawyer know I have fixed it - not to a high level of confidence.
