The goal of the system as a whole should be to help people live better lives. That includes providing the knowledge for people to do the jobs that help society function. And whatever is needed to help them convince employers to hire them (i

How do you handle students that are not capable of showing up on the first day in-person? - Live far away - Have a job they can't just not show up for - Having children to take care of - Health issues There's tons of reasons for p

But it's still better than no course option available to people that can't attend in person. So the question becomes how do we improve it.

But the benefit of living in a society is that those people that _cannot_ survive without the society, _can_ with it. They still have the option to live outside society, they'll just perish. And that sucks. But by being part of society

Sometimes what the contract says and what the contract _looks_ like it says to a layman can read very different. - Granted $500k of stock on start, and then have it diluted as stock is added for new investors - Hollywood accounting - net vs

A $2 print of a picture from the internet serves the same purpose, and provides the same functionality, as a $1,000 piece of art, or a $1,000,000 piece of art. The value isn't in the raw functionality it provides.

I think of my watch the same way a lot of people think of jewelry, or suits, or things like that. While it does serve a purpose (telling time), the primary reason I wear it is because I like it. It's functional, but mostly decorative.

There is a pretty big gray area in there. Literally every society on the planet has some form of "giving up their freedoms" in exchange for some amount of security. I would argue that it's impossible to have a stable society

Nobody I know would call that street the city. In my mind, "the city" is, minimally, houses that are a few feet apart, small yard in back/front, pretty much nothing on the side. Frequently, it's 2-3 story buildings, with

Where I used to live, in NY (not NYC, but close to _a_ major city), I had to go out onto my front porch to use my cell phone. It wasn't a great signal out there, but it was better than the _no_ signal inside my apartment.

It has nothing to do with CSS. An image, encoded using the CMYK color space, will display just fine in a browser (and pretty much any image viewer). It's just that it needs to be converted from CMYK to RGB in order to be displayed. And
