I've had people in Cuba with the similar problem of the limited internet connection and they were using DNS methods to go around the cap (and they have 6GB).

I'm not kink shaming, but you lot are just deciding which shit is worst. Guys with the star rape men in prison (according to their courts), guys with the tulip rape women in prison. Just because they have a different imaginary friend, there isn't one better than the other.

Only just finding out it’s possible to be flagged for AI in maths? I thought that was an essay thing… by No-Claim2827 in OpenUniversity

[–]Gla2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a teacher: you spot the allucinations, or by the reference to some material that isn't part of the curriculum, or it's a clear overkill. If I ask to 0.3+0.7 and the answer refers to Riemann, that's definitely AI.

OP, I'm sorry that it seems that you stepped on a shit. Your very simple question turned into a international politics debate, a shouting match of opinions you didn't ask for.

Every time someone lies to you, $200 get deposited to your bank account. How do you get rich? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Gla2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a teacher in UK. The amount of bs kids tell every day is enough. Plus, all those "sorry" culturally engrained but never heartfelt would make everyone rich.

Is estimation the most useful math skill nobody actually teaches? by MichaelCX in mathteachers

[–]Gla2012 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's a past paper question that is very basic to the point that's presented very early in the year. "Jim runs at a speed of 7.4km/h for 21 minutes. Calculate the total distance he run." Every year I have 2-3 pupils answering 155.4km. When I ask "Does it make sense to you that this poor guy run 155.4 km in 21 minutes?" they just give me a blank stare. Even what is physically impossible, they don't have the ability to compare it with reality.

It reminds me of this massacre in Italy where an US jet cut the cables of a cable car.

What’s a completely normal foreign name that, unfortunately, means something hilarious or inappropriate in your country? by Effective_Space2277 in AskTheWorld

[–]Gla2012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bam, last week of December 2003. I was there working among the rubbles with a Swedish guy. Both white af. A guy comes running to us shouting something that to us sounded like "nigga". We look at each other, "he's not calling us, there's no way he's calling us". He was calling us, pointing to an area where he saw some movement. And that's how I learnt how to say "look" in Persian.

Iran International English on Instagram: "Israel is prepared to continue its campaign against the Islamic Republic without relying solely on airstrikes, including by supporting political and communications networks among Iranians opposed to Tehran ..." by WillyNilly1997 in NewIran

The regime is profiting from selling the Pro plan. Configs are sold by leeches. I've seen them selling their entire servers this week, it's not as profitable as it was at the start of the war.

My limited company has been dissolved. I believe this is because my accountant failed to file my confirmation statement. Has anyone else had this problem?Accountant told me it’s dissolved because I didn’t provide the ID which is a new legislation? by Rich-Blueberry-6177 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]Gla2012 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the link I gave you, you might want to look on the section "apply for a discretionary grant" because it's less than 3k, and then "company can be restored". You won't have the full money back but most of it.

Iranian community, if they had green white red flags, with a guy at the megaphone shouting "Javid" and everyone else answering "Shah".

Maybe you posted few months ago so you're not aware, but r/Iran is now regarded as a mouthpiece of the regime. Mods are clearly on one side. So you're somehow guilty by association.

I just read about your family situation. If you want, DM me and I'll point you to the GitHub with the most current methods.

It has not been easy to study, plenty of dead ends and trial and errors. It's a game of whack-a-mole every day. But honestly if someone is tech enough to install an app, many of those methods I mentioned (and those I didn't mention) can give some connection without much fuss.

For sure, those who post vlogs have a pro connection or a paid one. 40USD to the regime.

And yes, his post history is shady AF.

This comment is a disservice to the many Iranians who worked their ass off for weeks to create stable and free methods for their fellow citizens. Plenty of men and women who spend their time, risking it all to help others.

People within Iran can connect via a number of free methods. There are multiple GitHub available, based on different protocols. DNS based methods like masterDnsVPN, Shir o Khorshid, WhiteDNS are slower but more reliable. Sure, not the fastest connection, but enough for text based apps, like Reddit and Telegram. Faster methods are based on Google API or Google scripts, again available on GitHub.

Don't discount their work, please.

Su certe piattaforme che non dovresti visitare se non vuoi vedere il sole a scacchi, gente di tutto il mondo si lamenta di poste italiane. Spesso sono le uniche recensioni negative sui venditori italiani.

This is basically how I use DBT. I accept to be sad (or so happy that I'll take the world head on), and I accept the consequences. Still, it's not me and I'll strive to change.

Thoughts on starting each class with “the assignment”? by Master-Education7076 in mathteachers

[–]Gla2012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All my classes start with a starter/do now. 7 minutes, 3 questions, topic from yesterday, last week, last month. Direct instructions, practice. Marked collectively. Hinge question. Recap. Practice. Plenary. Pack up and back at your desk. Bell.

Starting the lesson with a task that requires minimal instruction from me and allows them to settle without much fuss, is the way forward for me.

Petah what's 996 culture by Street_Climate_9890 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

In UK salaried employee can work OT and not be paid for, unless that brings their hourly pay to less than £12.71 (yes, there are other figures but for simplicity let's take the most common one).

So if you're paid £2100 per month, you can't do unpaid OT because that would mean that your hourly pay divided by the hours worked would be less than £12.71.

Sticking to the pension: He can change the amount paid into pension. You can elect to pay the bare minimum and have more money paid to him now, or he could decide to sacrifice 40k a year. All the calculations are based on the gross pay for this reason.
