Not entirely different but built more specifically for teachers, so that they get relevant information without having to watch the video every time. Also, draftback doesn't integrate with Google Classroom.

Thank you for the feedback. My wife feels this way as well. It’s good to hear perspectives on it.

There are a bunch that purport to do “AI detection” and a few others that are similar to mine (and more coming, I’m sure), but I like to think that mine is the most convenient to use :)

OMG... feedback like this is soooo helpful! Thank you. Nothing concerning in the .git directory, but yeah, I probably shouldn't be showing that. I will update my sync process to exclude that. Thank you! Edit: should be fixed now :)

I built a chrome plugin called Revision History [1] that I released about 2.5 weeks ago, so I've been talking to a good number of educators about this recently. I'd say the majority of teachers are terrified of AI, because it mea

⬆⬆⬆⬆⬆⬆ The point doesn't have to do with religion. Rather that people (many of whom were religious thinkers) have been thinking along these lines for thousands of years.

I'm not trying to proselytize here, just merely pointing out that the sentiment is thousands of years old: Akabyah ben Mahalalel said: mark well three things and you will not come into the power of sin: know from where you come, and w

No. There’s no “AI detection”, just a way to look at the history of revisions and let teachers decide for themselves

Maybe AI is going to save education, but the next few years are going to be very rough. I built a plugin for Chrome that helps detect cheating [1] so I've been talking to a bunch of teachers lately and pretty much everyone acknowledges

You are making the assumption that there's some formal deal for $250k total. I don't think that was ever the case. My guess is that in these negotiations, you tell the buyer that you sell in packs of 6 for say $41/case. They

There's another possibility: 4. The initial deal was verbal or even written down, but not in a contractual way. i.e. they get an email saying, hey, we are going to follow up with multiple purchase orders that will total 6000 units When

Neh. Perhaps the initial communication from the broker was along the lines of "Here's the deal I cut for you. The distributor is going to place several orders that together are going to add up to 6000 units." "Great, we

I have a relative who runs a small business. He says that 95% of his clients pay on-time or at least something close to on-time. There's 5% who don't. As a younger man, he said he took a few of these customers to court for claim

Fair criticism. You should edit it!

No, not very different. But as I understand it, most commercial bonds are not callable, whereas most mortgages are pre-payable with no penalty.

In an ideal world, maybe. Problem is that measuring wealth is a very tough game. Let's imagine you start a company. Things are going really well and you raise tons of venture money at higher and higher valuations. In your most recent r

That might be true for a house or a small scale loan, but once you are dealing with billions I doubt that’s the case. I assume that it works as follows: you have $1b in stock, Bank gives you $500m line of credit. If stock goes down enough t

I had a Hyundai Elantra for $165/month after tax plus about $300 in various fees at the start of the lease. But to get great lease deals you have to love the process of seeking them out and negotiating. Otherwise, just suck it up and p

No. Make early voting widely available and mail ballots available to anyone who requests one. Stop thinking of elections as a single day. That’ll be much healthier for democracy.

Yeah where you got your degree from still matters. And you get in to the best schools by getting good grades.

In this specific example it’s probably the opposite. Bose is very good at locking down their supply chain to make sure no one is selling their headphones below list. They always have been. They probably imposed this restriction on Amazon ev
