I see, I remember that being a similar situation in my school. But in my experience it was good enough for 90% of the kids to stop using their phones. Cause most ppl’s parents were too busy working or sided with the school at the time

I might be ignorant about this but why would it be up to the parents ? Isn’t it up to the school to ultimately decide?

Do students in the US not get held back if tjey dont pass their grades?

I think it works tremendously well to take phones away. Let parents and students know that if you’re caught with a phone, it will be taken from you and not given back until the end of the year. It’s literally that simple.

I was just going to ask a similar question recently. Ive been working on a side project involving xgboost and was wondering if ML is still worth learning in 2024. My intuition says yes but what do I know.

I have seen plenty of german news falsely attributing arabic phrases as isis chants/flags etc.. It’s happening out in the open. Orientalism is still alive and thriving. Calling for israel to stop its genocide is considered hate speech

Very cool read! I wasn’t working during your time, but I recently have been working on maxmind db datasets. How different was it to what was offered in the past? I used to think this data was sourced from ISPs and could not be deduced from

One of the biggest games in my childhood, often played in local lan network cafes. I also used to play the DUNE strategy game. I miss the age of RTS games. Nowadays the only game barely worth mentioning is Company of Heroes

Same for me, growing up in the middle east. We used fountain pens for everything. And using pens/pencils wasn’t allowed for tests/submissions etc..

I love reading his EWDs, I had a professor who worked with him who mentioned he made his students work use pens while taking his tests. To make it less likely for the students to make mistakes??

I also noticed at the last Gophercon in san diego that a lot of talks were regarding data engineering and go. There was even a university professor with a data eng courses that presented about how he teaches most of it in Go and believes it

The huge difference is that the cab driver has skin in the game aka his life is on the line while driving too. So he has every interest in avoiding accidents

If i was user/staff, I would sure prefer if they paid the ransom… Since I dont trust the library to actually assess my impact, or track records of companies getting hacked often drag their feet making it up to victims. (equifax)

Thank you, even Betselem (israeli human rights org) claims that israel is an apartheid state. People will also use the holocaust to justify this somehow. Americans are brainwashed since theyre in elementary school by “learning about the ho

I also remember spending hours and hours on an old version of encarta. It had everything from geography to biology. Maybe the ipads they give to kids these days are similar but we haven’t experienced them?

My worry is that this diagnosis will make the person feel that this is an insurmountable problem or something that is permanent rather than a phase that will pass. I truly believed this is something everyone goes through, but Im not sure no

I hate that I cant say “OCD thinking” isnt a real problem and getting prescribed meds doesnt seem right. My theory is different than yours, there are a lot of certainties provided for in america or even the certainty that u can make it. So

Basically, my heart wants to tell her, labeling this as a condition and overthinking about being an overthinker will make it worse. Just stay busy and it will work out. But then ill be deemed as insensitive etc… Ive tried to share what Ive
