Ambiguously Gendered Revenge of "What is the Hivemind?"

I started a Story Hour!!

"The Life Of An Ooze"?







Kewl, Croth!

depends where you are. While there are some terrible schools in the US, there are also some very good public schools out there. They are rare but not everything is bad.

I'd say my high school, a rural school, was decent. But then I've seen kids who go there who can't spell worth crap! Nor use proper grammar! But then, I guess they're the redneck chain of the human race....

I went to school in England for a summer and besides the English history stuff that I did not know as well as they required it was not hard.

My cousin went to school one year in Scotland. It was totally different and more difficult than he was used to...

Wow, and here I thought the hive got quiet. I simply didn't notice page 9 and 10 accrue. Damn.

It was quiet this morning, before I went with my aunt to run errands. And when I got back. But while I was taking a nap, people were posting like heck!!!

Because after a bit of beating around the bush, you basically came out and said that you thought my high school wouldn't compare well to schools from other countries, despite comparing well to other US schools, even though anecdotal evidence trumps the universal statistics when I am discussing an anecdote.

NONE of our schools would compare at all to foreign schools, especially like those in Japan.... But I doubt we could get anyone to agree to go to school on 6 days instead of 5, drop all the days off and really push kids so they can get into the college they want to instead of not making it in at all.

Not all of us go/went to MIT to learn all this stuff...

I don't know what it is either.

They don't teach it at MIT. Period. Not even in the remedial math course. Its assumed to have been picked up in Elementary School, unfortunately an assumption that may not be fair to make...

It seems that alot of things, usually theories, only works "in the math"...

Any examples?

 

[Jdvn1]

I believe mass is what something actually weighs. Minus variables like gravity...

I could be wrong, it's been abt 12 years since I took physics classes.

That's kind of a fallacy that's common in the US. We measure weight in pounds, other countries measure mass in kilograms. They're not the same, although they are related.

 

[Jdvn1]

You can't fix the idiocy unless you get rid of the idiots in charge. Once you can manage to do so, then you can go in and make changes.

That's what I'm trying to do!

 

[Jdvn1]

Yes it did!

Like you need a class to tell someone "you're a loony!"

I've been saying that about people for years without a psych degree!

Does that count as malpractice?
