Sadly, in their aversion to math, they lost all ability to path find (graph theory) and navigate (geometry). Thus the bunnies remained trapped down there, forever lost in darkness…

Well he’s definitely going to win one prize: us president with the highest number of assassination attempts.

I vote we call this award the “Nobel Rest in Peace” prize.

Here we are; a controversial take on something almost accurate. The context is there for the feminist - women only organisations as safe spaces for women to talk about the issues the patriarchy inflicts upon them.

However, the implication goes beyond the context - “man bad, no want woman safe space” is heavily implied; it’s there but just deniable enough to ragebait, allowing a feminist talking point reply. An excellent trolling strategy, though possibly a self defeating one.

The trouble is, this tactic tends to alienate rather than convert. As a historical example; Megalia’s use of this tactic created pushback from the very group it sought to defeat. Is this a measure of success, or is it an indication of self defeating anger? Tricky call.

Ehh…

Gödel basically showed we can never know which “mathematics” is the “correct one”.

“Proven true assuming my axioms are true” is closer to reality.

Sounds a bit ageist - rather than upping the age by 1 year, why not up it by 5? That way the people imposing the law get to live under it.

Admittedly, you’ll see diehards growing their own, and a black market quickly forming which are the main issues. Then again, the fact a black market exists for fentanyl doesn’t mean banning it was a bad idea!

Online course generally implies online assessment.

The level of academic misconduct in those is insane; I caught 35% of my cohort cheating (using a method (one we never taught) they could not replicate in an in-person test) one year, and those were the ones I could prove. Online assessments just test what a search engine/AI knows really.

(For those about to tout “lockdown browsers”; it’s called “a second laptop” or just “my phone”)

Eh, at this point I had “cyberpunk dystopia” on my bingo card.

We’re about 60% there in the UK.

Yup, post is 100% correct, gender inequality is all around us. It’s even in the thread with us right now.

*Diver nearly wins Darwin award entitled “octopus solves new problem”.

I’m afraid I need to know where to purchase these in the UK. It’s a matter of vital cational security, erm I mean national security obviously.

The flavour profile has been described as "being punched in the mouth by a bowl of potpourri " by a colleague of mine.

Take a 6 month vacation and then negotiate double my pay when they frantically try to rehire me.

That’s about par for the course.

So far, the current UK government seems to realise they’ve lost their voters; thus they’re trying to appeal to the opposition’s voters.

The trouble is, no-one really wants censorship laws save for small (but vocal) pockets religious nuts masquerading as feminists.

We’ve normalised “if you are against x, you are a vile monster” kind of thinking; and thus we are now facing sweeping censorship.

A lot of the issue with logic problems is the “common sense” element required. With purely geometric problems, there are less of these to worry about.

Chess problems also work well to teach logical step application.

I can’t comment about anywhere else, but the UK job market broke down pre-COVID.

Post-COVID it has gotten even worse as even more skills are automated. About the only job sectors actively recruiting are the NHS (primarily nurses), STEM teachers (primary/secondary), retail, and hospitality.

They’re all high stress with a comparatively low wage - the latter 2 tend not to pay living wages and also tend to be “shift work” (i.e. 0 hour contracts).

For those of us holding other jobs, this market has led to wage squeezes and a sharp decline in working conditions. Most folks have taken an effective pay cut, and workload models are squeezing more tasks into each role.

Overall, it’s a clusterfuck of epic proportions.

Life doesn’t need a reason; it is progenitor of reasons.

I’m the guy in the background saying “go back to teaching Euclid and proof in schools”, as the real point was to teach logical deduction from established facts.
