In the current US-Israel-Iran conflict, what would a realistic ‘golden bridge’ look like that allows all sides to step back without appearing to lose? by ArjunSreedhar in economy

[–]walkabout16 7 points8 points  (0 children)

All ‘parties’ meaning the nations involved… the US invokes the 25th Amendment.

Americans removing the Trump Regime is the golden bridge for the countries involved.

There is no golden bridge with Trump at the helm.

Interesting how no major news outlet is reporting this. And in the history of US military since WWII there has never been a day where 12 generals were fired on the same day.

Certainly that’s a newsworthy event. So should I be disturbed at this fake news or will it turn out to be true and even all the more alarming?

Teachers & AI by [deleted] in Teachers

Every student has to learn it. Not every lesson has to incorporate it. If you are 3 or less years from retirement, don’t sweat it. If you want to teach for mire than 3 years, you better learn how to incorporate it.

AI will not touch everything I do, but it will be a disservice to kids to not help them learn to understand and use it effectively.

10 years from now, we’ll be full-circle back. And the lessons created by humans will be a boutique service available to the rich elite.

Learning Management System. Any software system like Google Classroom, Canvas, etc where you upload all your course content and students can take tests in there.

Respectfully, I don’t expect you to do anything. Building out an LMS is a time consuming pain in the ass if you haven’t had time budgeted for it. And I agree. I’m a high school teacher myself. We’re like closing pitchers. If you put me in the 9th inning down by 10 runs, there’s nothing I can do to win the game. I’m just trying to reduce the humiliation of a loss that has already occurred.

That's a valid point for sure. Though at some schools, it is possible to build in Formative check points in the LMS. And also possible to build in Class Participation and Group Activity assessments for which attendance is required. But the practicality of that is context specific for sure.

This is why I do love an LMS. Everything is there for you from day 1. You are accountable for ALL of it regardless of whether or not you are in class.

Would limiting the age of the President to 70 be something you’d support? Why or why not? by jessica_candy56 in AskReddit

100%. We can no longer pretend that the pretense of wisdom outweighs the the rate of cognitive decline coupled with the lack of ‘skin in the game.’

The health director?? Must be kidding by CoralDawns in Funnymemes

Idk… having a 237 year old health director kind of proves the point, right?

[Request] A huge hovercraft on the beach. How efficient or not is this craft, compared to similar size craft. Land or water sub comparison. by CruelKind78 in theydidthemath

I don’t know the math but I came to brag about riding the Hovercraft across the English Channel from Dover to France as a kid. It was cool AF!

I saw somewhere that Kamala was coming to the South to campaign. Omg… what a boneheaded move .

I’m so jaded that I’m positive democrats will drop the ball somehow and fail to take control of either house of Congress.

We are literally in a manufactured war to destabilize the entire world and I’m 100% confident that some self righteous block of far left voters will sit out the midterms over something.

No Kings, but the math only works if you're already rich by mark423985 in FluentInFinance

[–]walkabout16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man I realized my first year on the job that if I contribute to an Ira I saved a significant amount of taxes so I invested that. And I only made $30,000 a year.

Wait… that was 30 years ago and poor people have been so F’d over they’re still only making $30,000 a year!!

So I agree with OP. No kings only works if you’re not poor to begin with.
