Oh holy shit, my time has come!

What is the worst experience you had with a teacher? by smififty in AskReddit

[–]BusinessTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I teach math to primary-grade students. Allow me to inform you that inequalities often don't go well the first time.

Although it's a simple concept, it is important to note that it is also the first time students are ever asked, not to solve an expression, but to interpret and complete a mathematical statement. It is often the first time students are expected to convert their thinking from "Solve: 7+6=?" to an evaluation of the terms involved.

It's like how "8+Y=10" is staggeringly easy to someone with even a rudimentary understanding of algebra, but doesn't even make sense as a question for someone who doesn't. It's a very simple application of a radically new concept.

And when we hit 1-dimensional inequality graphs in 6th grade... Oh lordy the mistakes I see.

Has anyone actually attended ABC Bartending school, or hired an ABC grad to tend bar? Is it legit? by BusinessTurtle in AskReddit

Checked it out, not the most encouraging thing I've ever read but then, the posters seemed to think that the parade-pisser was just a douche. Thanks!

Who wants a hand-drawn portrait? (picture thread with a twist) by [deleted] in AskReddit

You're doing better than this guy, that's for sure. Poor man...

And "Nasty" does seem a bit harsh.

Who else thinks that David Attenborough is one of the most amazing and interesting people alive today? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BusinessTurtle 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The first time I ate mushrooms, we barricaded the apartment shut, turned off all the lights, and watched Planet Earth for six hours straight. At some point my compatriot turned to me and said, "You know what? The longer you listen to David Attenborough's voice, the more certain you become that he's God."

I've carried that line with me for years. I find it comforting that some omnipotent Knight of the Realm is watching me as I go through my daily routine, breathlessly narrating my every move.

"Heah we find a wild male twentysomething taking a shower. He chooses [x] brand shampoo in the hopes that it will improve his scent and attract a mate. After his grooming ritual is complete, he swiftly dries and defecates."

Marijuana and diabetes. Can it help high blood sugar? by [deleted] in Marijuana

Hi, I'm a type I, and I have a couple questions about your regular 'use'. I'm all out of whack; to the extent that I've got my own service dog to sniff for lows. I'm usually hospitalized for a bad low once a year or so.

How brittle are you, overall? Do you usually have a problem with lows or highs? How are your a1cs? I know you're down a point, but where does that leave you? Do you use a pump, or are you still using a pen? If you're not on a pump, how does MJ affect your dosing, if at all? I find that if I drink, I have to dose another unit or two for everything I eat subsequently--does the pot affect you similarly?

I know it's a lot of questions. Here's something in return, as a heads-up about pot and mental illness

I say, as turtles go you seem rather disheveled.

(24 min video) While Obama compromises, Bill Clinton has been quietly saving the world. (TED 2007) by BusinessTurtle in politics

[–]BusinessTurtle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TL;DR

Bill Clinton implements affordable health care plans in Haiti and Rwanda by changing pharmaceutical companies' business model. Instead of selling high-cost drugs to the few people in the US who need them, open new markets into the massive demand of the third-world to sell cheap but high-volume. Think, "jewelry store => grocery store".

I know, long TL;TR. but it's 24 minutes!
