I have a diagnosis. Their teachers suspected a diagnosis and the child was tested. The child would benefit from treatment. The parents were asking for my opinion. As a tutor, I would be one of the first people that would know if a student i

That is some very charged language. Showing empathy and helping a child become better at critical thinking isn't anything close to brainwashing. Maybe you're trying to use language that you imagine the parents might think in, but

I completely understand that the parents are the ultimate authority. I feel like I was in a position where I could have done more. I can't imagine how many times a teacher must feel the same throughout their years of teaching. I feel a

They believe as a parents, they have all of the specific knowledge required to give their child the best possible life. While ignoring pediatricians and teachers. I wasn't referring to myself in any way.

I am not sure what the best way to communicate with these kinds of parents is. This is a parent with a very specific kind of mindset about who should be the ultimate authority on their child. More often than not, it becomes unhealthy for th

It's not that clear cut. There is no lanuage about when a license can be revoked. That's not how the contracts of these types work. You can only argue that new people will not be able to use the old license. It's similar to t

I think it's reasonable for the government to ban TikTok on their phones. I don't think it's reasonable to make a blanket ban per state or ban its use on College wifi networks with the only justification being potential natio

We're no longer live in a world where someone who chooses to use the internet can assume the expecataion of privacy. But this is doesn't demonstrate the need to ban TikTok. Gathering data users are willing to give you isn't a

Public sentiment is what dictates how effective public policies will be. People will only agree to things, like getting a vaccine, if they hear it from someone they trust. Ignoring what the public believes, instead of educating and acknowle

The more damaging thing to science, in my opinion was the stigma that became assocaited with questioning experts. In some situations, public official made using deductive reasoning politicized. The entire point of science is making a hypoth

These heavy handed approaches in the last couple of years makes me wonder what the NSA found out about TikTok. Two consecutive presidents, that held relatively different positions on foreign policy, and government officials at various level

I feel frustrated when I see governments succesfully eroding away people's right to privacy by making bad faith arguments against technology. There's a thin line between an online community providing support and one indirectly exp

I don't think cheaters will use any text from ChatGPT verbatim. The majority of "cheating" is going to be similar to how students use Wikipedia as a reference. This might be useful to filter spam from places that initially go

My understanding is the software released as MIT is pereptually MIT. Additional updates could change the license, but that won't retroactiely affect previous releases. The MIT license explicitly allows sublicensing. https://

I might be in the minority, but I am worried about privacy laws and phone unlock/biometic data. A password is something literally only I know and has been effectively protected while unlock/biometric data is being actively tragett

I will not use them unless there's stronger laws about biometric data and privacy. I realized that the whole point of passkeys is to replace passwords. It won't be immediate, but it is clearly the long term goal. I don't want

I think we are closest to the complete destruction of what it means to have your identity stolen. Deep fakes were the beginning and now they are reaching mainstream movie/tv use for final shots. Voice cloning exists, but has mostly onl

I think oral exams would be better, even though they aren't scalable. Asking a person a follow up question live is the best way to test knowledge. You would need a traditional way to cheat if you wanted to use ChatGPT during an oral ex

I liked cybersecurity enough to sit in on a college lecture on it. I asked the professor about a question I had and he asked me if I was thinking of focusing on cybersecurity. I told him that I was doing a biology major at the time and he s

It's hard to change a public image once it's established. This makes it's harder to make dramatic shifts in perspective, regardless of new information that's presented. You're not just challenging yourself, but you

This was an amusing read. Unsurprisingly, you can learn some basic things about how three letter agencies operate from job postings. There was also an interesting issue that happened in 2013, a WaPo article listed some names of various prog

I trust Google login and oAuth to be protected with better security practices than the general login. AdSense and other cookies means they probably know where you have an account regardless of if you login. I like that "Sign in with Go
