Teachers get can paid more whether you raise taxes or not. Chicago public schools runs a $700,000,000 deficit every year no sweat. Chicago pays teachers more than any other place in the country and has close to if not the absolute worst stu

> Is that really worth expelling a student over? What do you mean by this. What is the cost of one university expelling a liar? There is only benefit. I am talking about a school like Princeton here. Not a for-profit degree mill. The sch

I don’t see how they couldn’t be. Either on purpose, secretly my coercion, or secretly without their own knowledge. It’s so valuable

You are equating “leniency” and “standard of proof” which goes against my every sense of justice. You either did it or you didn’t. There is no small crime, they are all the same. That is honor- you have it or you don’t. There is no “you wer

The trick for me was to place a queen (most anywhere, but start with a corner it’s easier), then check and look for the spot with the most reds around it (eg 9, or 8, or 7), place the next queen there, repeat. Then place the bishop as neede

There is an easy solution to Princeton’s problem, and it’s to have an honor system with a backbone. The way honor historically worked. At my private high school, and at my university (although they later gutted it), we had a “single sanctio

Yes I don’t get the worry on an individual basis. If my money is in a CIT they tell me exactly what it’s invested in and it is audited every year. The worry here seems to be on a systemic level, rather. No one knows how much in aggregate

My Starlink receiver already isn’t mine. It’s locked to one account. I can’t give it to someone else to use without contacting the company and registering it. I can’t donate it to goodwill and have someone else use it.

Yeah this is the whole point. It’s not (currently) possible to verify your age without at least revealing your identity. You can talk about birthday hash or whatever, I don’t see it happening
