God I love how Dutch is essentially just how I talk after I’ve had a pint too many. If I can ever get a hand on German, Dutch is the next language on my list.

It’s literally in the first sentence
Maine Republican lawmaker Lucas Lanigan won re-election to the state House by a single vote after a recount
the English proficiency of young people in the country is stagnant compared to other countries and regions.
Seems like my gut was right, that it’s less because they’re regressing, and more because other countries have been increasing theirs.

Sometimes I truly do love the absurdity of my country
Yeah I’m sure I’d probably be using chatgpt these days if I were still in school instead of paying the frankly stupid amount Chegg cost.
I imagine it varies quite a bit depending on the subject and who’s doing the answers. There were 3 or 4 answer authors that I learned to recognize as consistently quite good in the areas I needed it in.
I guess I had a much different experience with Chegg than most.
For a handful of my classes, it was the only way to consistently get similar problems with worked out solutions. I’m not going to pretend I never was lazy and used it to cheat, but most of my usage was of problems I wasn’t assigned so I could see how they were done.
That said, I can’t speak as to how they pay the people that actually do the work, that may be a whole can of worms that I really probably should’ve looked into when I was using it.
I like how one of their points of evidence is a only kinda sort of expensive camper trailer. Yeah, I’m perfectly fine with the people maintaining a public resource like that being able to go on camping trips lmao.
Turns out being a racist shithead is in no way determined by your race or ethnicity.
I would say that’s an accurate description for a barbie doll that explodes personally.
I’m sure this varies a lot from district to district, but the districts that I have teacher friends in, they’ve been using Chromebooks almost exclusively for the better part of a decade now
The most common explanation I’ve seen, and imo it makes sense, is that things mostly just work now. Even XP required a helluva lot more troubleshooting and messing with stuff to make it work than today. So you not only have a bunch of people that have no troubleshooting experience, a large portion don’t even know how to properly search for things.
On the flip side, you have a lot more people doing insanely impressive stuff at a lot younger ages because if you have the drive to do it, there’s more material to learn than ever out there.
Cryptobros are mad people have realized they’re full of shit
Some people really don’t think before they speak do they
Yeah this is honestly an order of magnitude less that I would’ve thought
That’s not too insane for a company of their size. It’s higher than many, but far from out of the norm.
The worst part is Intel honestly could’ve have spun this into something of a win if they actually handled it properly. They’ve got over $25B in cash reserves, they could easily afford to do a recall and a big PR campaign about how good they are at accepting responsibility and fixing mistakes.
Frankly? Most people.
Most people are really dumb about this type of thing.
This relies on the assumption that everyone else, or at least a significant portion, in the office managed to do it.
I’m not talking about whether or not they’re actually physically capable of it, of course they are. Im talking about how people immediately shut down and pretend they can’t follow simple directions the second something relates to a compute.
You wildly overestimate the average person’s willingness to do that.
Yknow here’s the thing.
I distinctly remember telling myself “don’t type Dutch” because I always say one when I mean the other.
