- mcguire 10y agoFailure (and perhaps inability) to follow the well known and well grounded regulatory system in the industry.
- batbomb 10y agoThat probably falls under "move fast and break things"
- JustSomeNobody 10y agoThings == Theranos Regulations are in place for a reason.
- afarrell 10y agoMany but not all regulations are in place for a reason that remains good.
- Joof 10y agoMy university wouldn't try inverse classrooms (or record classes at all) because they have to be subtitled for the deaf (which costs money). However, deaf students don't have a similar requirement in normal classrooms. It's far more lax.
- batbomb 10y agoThey don't have a similar requirement because they get a translator who can stand next to the professor and/or take notes, and due to the ADA, it's mandated that they provide those services. When it comes to video/communications, the regulations are a bit more murky because the FCC may be involved. (There was a deaf student in my upper division math courses and I worked for a communications company with deaf coworkers for a bit.)
