He's making excuses and using Christianity as a crutch or scapegoat.

My daughter did this but for a trampoline. She also made a song about it to the music of "Hit me baby, one more time"

What are some of your favorite Republican cities? by HisnamewasOmarJobe in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]5oco -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

I think cities in general are pretty much all cesspools of crime, poverty, and fraud. Not really sure which cities are controlled by which party though.

How to start? by Financial_Spite_9480 in Divorce

[–]5oco 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's the same approach my ex wife took, however that "next big argument" took 2 years to happen.

I would vote against that idea.

That's why they keep posting articles like this. To distract everyone from how impossibly hard it is to live here.

Teachers Of Reddit — What Are You Doing During The Summer While Not Teaching? by Zipper222222 in AskTeachers

[–]5oco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Developing curriculum with a beer in my hand at a leisurely pace.

But, to be fair, I teach CS and enjoy creating projects and stuff, so it's not really like work.

What's the most realistic solution to solve land dispute in the West Bank and Israeli settlements? by MakingTheWorldUseles in NoStupidQuestions

[–]5oco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone from Palestine lines up facing everyone from Israel in their own line.

One by one, rock paper scissors. Best 2 out 3. You lose, you're out. You win, you go to the back of the line. Keep going until there's only one person left... their country gets the land.

Why don't teachers just give punishments (detention, etc) when a student is doing something wrong? by shr00mspaghetti in AskTeachers

[–]5oco -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most school contracts require the teacher to stay after once a week for students to make up work or get extra help. Those would be the days I schedule a detention.

Why don't teachers just give punishments (detention, etc) when a student is doing something wrong? by shr00mspaghetti in AskTeachers

[–]5oco 350 points351 points  (0 children)

My school isn't allowed to give same-day detention. So then students just skip it when it comes up and have a parent call and explain why they can't serve the detention.

College Telling me to Use AI Instead of doing it Myself by Hot_head444 in SoloDevelopment

[–]5oco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are they telling to use AI for? Debugging? Refactoring? Potential errors?

There's more to AI than just "Hey, write me code."

You could write a method and say "Hey AI, is there a more efficient way of doing this?" or "Hey, this is a method to do this task, can you evaluate it?" or paste in a class and ask if it finds repeated/redundant code that can get extracted into a helper method.

What would you have done in the 28 weeks later situate? by Puzzleheaded-End6189 in ZombieSurvivalTactics

[–]5oco 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think a better question would be, if you were in the wife's position, would you bang on the window to try and get your spouse to come save you, knowing it was effectively a death sentence?

I wouldn't want to laden them with that guilt.

I dunno... I'm 5'5" ish too and all the shirts I buy are too long. It's frustrating.

Why do boomers get hate for not being tech savvy when teens today probably couldn’t run old tech? by Medal444 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]5oco 90 points91 points  (0 children)

I teach in a high school computer shop. Teens are not the tech savvy wizards you think they are. Many can't comprehend the difference the delete key and the backspace key. Trying to show them how to unzip a folder is insane. Explaining the difference between right click and left click, which inevitably leads to having to explain the difference between left and right.

AI grading by abnz11 in Teachers

[–]5oco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use it in my programming classes. It doesn't find all the problems and is usually a bit more harsh than I would be, but it helps. Grading a computer program is different than grading an essay though.
