> "What the student thought was it temporary concession to the system-"I'll play along just enough so that I can get what I want from the system"-turns out to be the beginning of it forced, permanent adjustment to the system."

Nice affiliate link there. Is that your own book you're flogging, too?

  This is not appropriate behavior for HN. There was no affiliate link in the original post. ref= is not an affiliate tag, it's an Amazon ref tag. tag= is an affiliate tag. https://google.com/search?q=amazon+affiliate+code+url https://google.com/search?q=amazon+affiliate+code+url https://medium.com/feedium/how-to-tell-if-a-link-is-an-amazon-affiliate-link-9869aab25ecf https://medium.com/feedium/how-to-tell-if-a-link-is-an-amazo...

        I made no such claim. Here is what I stated, so you can read it again: "I checked before I posted and found two web sites that stated that ref= is an affiliate tag." You can choose to believe what I wrote, or not. But it's inappropriate to try to put words in my mouth. Either way, I'm not interested in arguing with random griefers in the internet.
