Still a hopeful centrist at heart. Passionate about data, fairness, advocating to improve health care access, and eliminating food waste. "Gratitude and reciprocity are the doorway to true abundance, not power, money, or fear." - Brian Gibb

Disgusting - and it will continue for 3.5 more years because the congress is abdicating all their responsibility and the Supreme Court continues making the executive untouchable and more powerful.

Agree? Or is this an oversimplification and just one factor?

At least your institution apparently has enough sense to use Canvas and not Blackboard.

It's not like they are expensive or anything... Maybe the price of a used NY hot dog stand at most, right?! Right.... Oh....

This is why some liberals say that "the cruelty is the point."

Curious if you ever critique the left for anything other than then not being "left" enough. Have you read the book? Do you care to critique its actual thesis?

Straight into entry level industry jobs is the trajectory. Our math/stats requirements do not easily facilitate higher degrees. But I'm the sole instructor and we haven't graduated our first cohort yet.

Thanks for sharing. I teach in a data analytics program at a community college in Wisconsin after years teaching math/statistics down South and then working in industry for a couple years.

Agree that the "fruits" of capitalism have seemed pretty sour lately. But, do you think those pursuing higher average pay salaries instead of following their passions are doing so out of thoughts about the economy and their fear of not being able to make ends meet, or vanity?

To me, it's just sad that people are that fixated on average pay to determine their life's work.

Would be fascinating to see this "good for thee but not for me" difference for lots of issues to put this gap into the proper context.

But as a % not close to a record two day successive drop I'm guessing?

If you need the most blatant example that technology can't solve problems created by human nature - here you have it.

People have all the information at the tip of their fingers, yet they deliberately choose to stay uninformed and listen only to lies and propaganda.

Because those lies feel good!

Some of Sowell's comments are pretty hard to take issue with on their face, but this one is kinda dumb. The weather tomorrow is not in the least consequential, catastrophic global warning is existential.

Yes, most certainly the answer is yes.

At some point I always find myself going back to believing it has to be a bit of a schtick or just a way to stay relevant or make money. No one can be so stupid to suggest that if you're a real man you never use straws or drink milkshakes.

Mute, huh... wow. Notice he didn't actually refute anything you said at all, just blamed your sourcing. I'm sure he has all the most accurate sources.

That's nuts. I can't believe Trump stands for this. Even though he's maybe mostly posting on Truth Social nowadays I bet he wouldn't like it if 1000's of people printed this and sent it to him.

I've recently seen more widespread use of the words r*tard(ed) and p*ssy by from all appearances left leaning individuals. This is not the way.

Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
