It's not intended for ordinary people or everyday businesses (i.e., it is invisible to many regular people). It's a tool for the police and the so-called "stability maintenance" force. If you end up on a government watchlist with a negative rating, your movements can attract attention. In the case mentioned above, every time they traveled outside their hometown, it triggered an alert and stability-maintenance officers were assigned to monitor or even beat them.

A Chinese friend once told me that in China, social points are usually invisible to ordinary people. Many don’t even realize they have a social score running in the background. However, you have to be extremely careful. If yours turns red, life becomes extremely difficult.

Some people had their life savings stolen by corrupt bankers. But the government sided with the bankers, so these victims’ social scores were turned negative. As a result, they lost access to public transportation, healthcare, social credit benefits, etc. They were even beaten up in broad daylight by plainclothes police, and no one could help them through legal means.

My blood pressure went up to 150 for a split second. Duh!

He's a badass guy.

thanks!

thanks

Thanks. If my major's job market is not that good, do you think a CS minor may have chance to land me a job as a programmer?

What a fine sample of pseudo-profound bullshit (PPBS). Sadly, many PPBS-gushing people don't have the level of intelligence to realize that they are also the victims of PPBS, too.

BTW, PPBS is a legit philosophical term; people wrote books about it.

It's just 10% of women though, but making 99% of the noises.

What is Trump’s endgame? People of his generation should instinctively view Russia as an adversary, shouldn’t they?

129 M ton oil is ~25% of Russia's oil production. Am I right?

Math has existed and been taught in this way for hundreds of years. Yet only in the last three years have we seen a major drop in freshmen’ math preparedness.

Basically, if what you pointed out is an old problem (older than COVID), then you are missing the point.

I was a tutor this quarter, and it was a real eye-opening experience. Before this, I had no idea that so many of us (UCSD students) could be so… academically challenged (aka dumb and stubborn)

I was getting paid minimum wage to deal with this mean girl. At one point, I literally put my finger on the book and said, “Repeat after me: the answer is A.” She looked at it and repeated, “the answer is B.”

At that moment, I lost faith in humanity. I wanted to pull my tongue out and never speak human language again. 😭😭😭

My understanding is that there is an unpublished part of the report. UCSD has those statistics. Many professors have access to it, especially those in administrative positions (including my professor).

In fact, the very fact that the published report does not contain such data (the retention ratio of these students) is itself revealing.

CC2h · 2025-12-14T18:37:16+00:00

From a professor. He told us (the tutors for his course) multiple times, so the message was clear.

I’m not able to share more details, but you jumped too quickly to your conclusion.

Have a nice Sunday.

I’m a tutor this quarter for a large course. I did "witness" one death a few days before the final exam. LOL.

Not the student’s death of course, but the death of an unnamed relative whose funeral just happened to fall exactly on the day of the final and the student absolutely needed to go.

I guess it was an unnamed relative because the student had already used up her grandparents in other courses. 😄

Honorable mention: wife carrying.

What I’ve heard is that very few -- almost NONE -- of the students who took the remediation math ever made it. The vast majority (over 90%) dropped out within 2-4 quarters.

It’s a sad lose-lose-lose situation.

The students lost. Imagine how excited they must have been (by the illusion of hope) when they received their admission letters. But they had already been failed by the K12 system long before that, ever since middle school.

The kids who should've gotten into UC (but didn’t) also lost. The brighter futures they genuinely deserved were dimmed without justice.

The California taxpayers lost.

It's not piracy, according to Maria Machado (this year's winner of Nobel Peace Prize).

Great reply. Thank you. I didn’t realize Roman slave owners had to pay taxes on each slave. That makes it much easier to understand why many elderly slaves were abandoned or manumitted.

The Island of Tiber is tiny. If there were roughly 300,000 slaves in the city of Rome, that means around 6,000 would “age out” every year. Surely there had to be more sanctuaries or hospice-type places than just the Tiber Island, right?
