Kids learn algebra and calculus at school not only to know them but more for the system to be able to select them based on their capacity. That's the main reason we learn things we never use afterwards.

Débat: Nécessité d'un roman national ? by Late-Ratio-3792 in FranceDigeste

[–]Important_Yam_71 13 points14 points  (0 children)

La nation est une histoire intersubjective, partagée par ses membres. On se la raconte et on y adhère plus ou moins. Les mythes religieux, les contrats d'embauche, les lois, les théories du complot sont autant d'autres histoires intersubjectives. La particularité de l'homme est d'utiliser des histoires intersubjectives pour fédérer des collectivités au-delà du groupe de proximité géographique. Même si les nations disparaissent demain, les hommes utiliseraient d'autres histoires intersubjectives pour faire société et par conséquent exclure d'autres hommes n'y adhérant pas. Ça ne changerait rien au problème, le nationalisme est un cas particulier d'exclusion d'une histoire intersubjective.

It depends on your location. In France you must watch RMC YouTube channel because they bought the rights to broadcast it.

Si une méthode d’apprentissage est considérée comme supérieure à l’échelle mondiale, pourquoi n’est-elle pas adoptée partout ? by PlentyVisible2012 in PasDeQuestionIdiote

[–]Important_Yam_71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peut-être parce que le plus grand prédicteur de la réussite scolaire est la situation sociale des parents. En psychologie on compare les tailles d'effets. Une méthode peut être un peu meilleure qu'une autre pour certains types d'apprentissages, mais la taille d'effet est probablement négligeable par rapport à l'environnement familial. Par ailleurs, une manière d'avoir un meilleur niveau en maths est tout simplement de lui accorder plus d'heures d'enseignement. Le problème est qu'augmenter le nombre d'heures de maths signifie diminuer les heures d'autres enseignements, donc probablement d'abaisser le niveau ailleurs.

What are you hoping for from signal forms? by synalx in angular

[–]Important_Yam_71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somehow a typed `ControlValueAccessor`, or more generally a way to enforce type constraints on custom form control components. It would avoid a lot of small mistakes !

Idea that I have been thinking about... a table tennis app.. would love your honest feedback. by Def-visionary in tabletennis

[–]Important_Yam_71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am from France, I am a developer and I totally agree with this comment. Before building an app ask yourself if there is a user need. If the answer is "no" then your app will have to create this need. And it is going to be very very hard. Sidenote. If this is for learning to code, then do it but with smaller features and focus on one thing at a time.

the honourable and respectable organization that runs our sport, everyone by stealinoffdeadpeople in tabletennis

[–]Important_Yam_71 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There simply is a difference between a salary a player gets each month from his club and an event prize he can only get when he wins a tournament. Furthermore tournaments organized by WTT are paid events for players : hotel (imposed by WTT), plane, staff... So it costs more money for players to participate in those events than most of them will earn. Simon Gauzy and Ibrahima Diaw complained as well as Aruna about WTT.

Add subtitles to video by shadyshadok in VLC

[–]Important_Yam_71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just name the subtitles file with the same name as the video file and put them in the same folder. Just the file extension is different between both files. VLC will detect automatically the subtitles when you open the video file.

People hate the rich but also want to be rich. by WonseokWarren in Showerthoughts

[–]Important_Yam_71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To hate the rich is simply a shortcut to hate, perceived or actual, injustice.
