Another aspect you fail to understand is that because the accountability / rating / funding of local education agencies is involved, the state government and the state university do NOT want to and can NOT get involved in producin

You can't tell the difference between a prototype and product. OK. Lets go to the basics. Do you at least understand the state standardized tests are commonly given to grade 3 to grade 10 students on three subjects (English, Math, Scie

You apparently don't know what you are talking about. No. Testing companies do not lobby to get standardized tests mandated where they were not. The federal government mandates this as a requirement for federal money. Districts do not

I am not sure what you are talking about. There are several testing companies, Pearson is not the only one. And states have a selection process and technical review process done by outside psychometricians. Yes. There are places where tests

It is not as that brilliant. Mao wanted to be the leader of the international communists, he was not happy with Stalin. China was in confrontation with the Soviets. At the same time, China's economy was at the edge of collapsing, so CC

I hope they success. The traditional higher education is becoming more and more a scam. Federal government is backing almost all the student loans, but universities automatically increase their tuitions. The student loan crisis is a clear i

I don't see the university here is a real issue. Sting research is always uncommon, naturally it won't happen in many years (or ever). It's not like if you don't ban UMN, someone else from their CS department will do ano

Publishing sting is not the UMN team's intervention. The Sokal affair [1] is probably the most famous one. There are many others too [2]. In the Grievance studies affair [3], three researchers submitted 20 fake articles. They must have

I totally agree this is a very balanced review of the affair. The fact that "kernel maintainers ... are overworked and do not have the time to properly review every patch that passes through their hands" is not a situation created
