  • “Almost overnight, the school fees went up from £55,000 per year to £70,000. The increase was shocking, but not entirely unexpected,” Moy says. “Ultimately, I believe, the education provided and the sacrifices we will have to make are worth it.”

    So they readily admit it's a fair price, but still felt the need to complain to the media?

  • Yea... if the temperatures anywhere on the surface of the Earth got high enough to melt a car, I feel like we'd be extinct.

  • Learning from another person one on one is probably the best, but that obviously takes a bit more money unless you have a friend who can teach you. You can always take classes too, depending on what's offered where you live. Other than that I'm not familiar with any specifics, but I know there are lots of books you can get to learn from, and probably a number of games also designed for the purpose. Just search around and there's lots to find.

  • Yea, responding to student's questions is a critically important aspect of teaching, and especially when dealing with children who are in the process of learning how to use words correctly, I can't see AI doing anything remotely close to a good job.

  • Columns

    Hilariously, that style of game is also more popular than Tetris clones now.

  • I hope you can understand how extenuating circumstances such as yours aren't the norm.

  • An indoor cat wouldn't stand a chance. The lack of experience is an absolutely enormous barrier to overcome, and indoor cats really struggle a lot if they ever get lost outside.

  • Clean rooms are classified by the particulate count measured in the air. The extremely sterile atmosphere is achieved significantly by controlling the airflow strictly (out vents in the ceiling and in vents in the floor). You still will accumulate dirt in nooks and crannies which are difficult to clean properly, which doesn't actually cause the room to fail particle counts.

  • I like how the Game Gear lost hard to the Game Boy, but now their design is the standard for handheld consoles.

  • I feel like this is going to be highly variable depending on individual personalities, industries, and even specific employers. The largest employers do tend to be shittier, which probably does a lot of heavy lifting for this statistic.

  • Most other people who you interact with aren't actually seeing you individually. Instead they are confronting images they've previously developed regarding one or two characteristics they noticed. Don't take what they say too personally.

    Edit: Be aware that you do the same thing.

  • You got downvoted hard but you’re not actually wrong.

    I've noticed several issues like this which are prominent on both the right and the left, where the consensus is obviously wrong, but it's framed as such a deeply partisan issue that too many people refuse to even consider it, and everyone involved looks like ideological zealots for it.

  • Dude. Power seekers have been doing this shit since ancient times, and you're getting your panties in a twist about people who fight back against them? Anons know this stuff because they've been dealing with it since the dawn of the net.

  • Here is a great piece someone put together a while ago which goes through many of the techniques bad actors use.

  • It's a test of pattern recognition. The difficulties come from trying to apply similar measurements between disparate populations, as the questions themselves tend to rely upon common understandings of the world. You can measure two people from two different cultures with two different tests, but then it's more difficult to claim that the resulting scores are comparable. As long as people understand that it's a rough approximation rather than something akin to video game stats, it's quite useful.

  • Feeling the need to announce it every time you're in the same place as a specific person you don't know is honestly a little bit creepy.
