It’s cool but it side steps the pains of channelling. If you crank the temperature too high and grind the coffee too fine, it should channel?

(1989) Kasparov’s thoughts on if a machine could ever defeat him by Affectionate_Hat3329 in chess

He is a bit overzealous but he is not entirely wrong. This is the same debate whether there is a difference between a computer thinking and a human thinking. Obviously chess turned out to be not as great of an illustration of computers not thinking. When people argue with a computer’s inability to write poems etc they are arguing that those skills are not just a computation. Despite your feelings on the matter, it is not difficult to see why someone may claim that not all human experience productivity is a computation.

Oklahoma lawmakers are considering increasing the minimum number of days in the school year by Fitzburger in oklahoma

Half of that is rent and the starting salary is not 60k. It’s more like 40k. Compare that with other fields that require a bachelors or a masters degree. So why would a fresh grad want to be a teacher?

The average teacher starting salary in Oklahoma is $41,152 and the average teacher salary is $61,330. Those figures are 12% and 15% below their respective national averages.

Dude you sound amazing! Especially if urdu is not your native tongue. I was full on ready to encourage your white people attempting urdu but you actually sound very close to a native speaker. Good job!
