Then those of us able to get more might be pushed into taking the risk of making our own company and competing against the major players who are currently controlling the market by paying more than God to keep talent focused on selling ads instead of creating value?

Not when the objective is to increase the companies Visa quota not to find talent at market rate.

Ultimately I only have anecdotes. But I suppose we could look at the child-care sectors employment growth vs other sectors to see if it's recovering at the same rate as the rest of the economy.

Not very strong evidence but I think it would support the idea that more families are taking care of children in the household economy rather than the cash economy if it is recovering less quickly.

Just build progressive web apps done.

But seriously this is not just a privacy thing. It's also an accessibility problem. Why is it that we have lost the art of just making a web page that does stuff, and then enhancing that functionality?

My response is. You lied not me, and I know how many recruiters emailed me this week and you don't. Please don't play those games, I am here because I want to be. Lies make me not want to be.

Yeah I'm replaceable, but the pain of that replacement is usually more than the pain of making a sales guy eat some crow.

It amazes me that simple honesty and integrity wind up being such a huge value add.

It's not typical. It is possible though.

The job market seems to be tight because the folks hiring are unwilling to pay folks to keep up with the inflation we're seeing. It's not worth it for many people in a family to take outside work when childcare costs so much more.

What I would love to see is open source kernel level anti-cheat.

The issue of course is that would reveal just how much of our data those things Hoover up.

Have you seen the news in Florida... on most days?

This has interesting implications for the events of the past 2 years in general given how little power any of the levels of Government had to prevent protests from interrupting their exercise of power and monopoly on force.

I'm curious now... could a state just stop accepting USD and demand gold and silver.

That may have to do with Duolingo optimizing for paying and returning customers instead of for fluency.

Their app has to be "fun" or in flow rather than in that difficult challenging place to actually help you grow.

In learning both German and Old Norse the most helpful thing for me was to translate texts, read them aloud to a fluent speaker and get feedback. Which is hard to scale.

I'm fighting this battle right now.

Inches from just emailing the list of CVEs to someone way above my paygrade and letting the chips fall.

Then they can do their job with professionalism and courtesy for those they contact.

Ironically understanding that was the gateway to a zen like state of, "Sure but it'll impact our ability to succeed in next Quarters objectives"

They do think about those bonuses longer than the next quarter.

For most fans of the series this is a feature, not a bug.

There is a lot of desperate demand for the simple acknowledgment that America got a lot of things right, and had a deep commitment to doing better.

The books have some lengthy subplots exploring our nations sins, and dark parts. But the general framing is, "good people with good intent doing their best who fall short, get up and do their best again. And that is AWESOME!"

Only because we have decided to consume 16,000 a year in city service on that same house, and finance the rest with the urban development Ponzi scheme.

I suspect the appetite for suburban living would dry up if we all paid the actual maintenance costs of those streets, water and schools on a land-value basis

I teach intro to CS for a homeschool co-op and love seeing this kind of story!

Children can absolutely learn a lot more than we think they can, provided we take their capabilities seriously and give the appropriate scaffolding.

I feel like the value for you there is to incrementally add a little bit and keep your project fresh in your mind.

Fed it to a cow and ate the cow.

Skimping on resilience has been done for decades as part of "cost cutting," in large part because even when we had staffing for resilience, we found that people would collect their check and not actually do the maintenance.

I teach on zoom every week, and the UI is head and shoulders above every other competitor for screen share and annotation.

Google meet, and jitsi meet are both depressingly bad for this use case.

I've been tempted to pay someone to pour a concrete pad and buy a few to try and build a cabin on. With prices that low it's worth looking at.

This still happens now. So I'm quite sure we'd see it happen.

I think we agree, but I expressed it poorly.

Focus/Attention and patience are the skill that is degrading and proficiency in it is probably the pre-requisite for any successful growth in most other academic skills.

I'd be curious to see if those skills are being explicitly taught in preK and Kindergarten.

Integrity involves placing our duties to others in the proper order.

Sometimes that means doing stuff to benefit "your own." sometimes that means blowing the whistle on something. It really depends on the context.

There's mountains of paper, or proprietary software used for these tests. And that's before we pay for graders and monitors(and many schools need a few extra hands to do the test according to standard due to crowding).

The role of attention in our ability to test well shouldn't be underestimated.

I bet the same children could produce great results with a complete gamified test that used various tricks to pull their attention back to it.

Remote learning that was "online first" reflected the erroneous idea that most American homes have internet access. We taught in a county where 50% of families don't have internet, and 20% don't even have a land line in 2020-2021.

The decline in learning was astonishing. Many of these children simply did not do any reading at all for a whole year.
