Two AI-powered charter schools could soon open in Pennsylvania
  • Oh this AI bubble is good for the lulz. Do the developers even know what they're trying to teach? I don't think they do, and I don't think the AI system does, either.

    What will they do when the kids don't actually learn anything? Will they send the T1000 after them?

  • Trump administration orders consumer protection agency to stop work, closes building
  • They can do a lot. Do you remember the last twenty years under Democrat presidents? Republicans obstructed tons of things successfully, even when they were in the minority.

    It's a question of planning and willpower. Of course there are no perfect solutions, so don't ask for those.

  • Uncommitted movement leader reminds senile Democrats why they lost.
  • The Democrats in Washington failed us, and they won't admit it or retire. So of course we are going to target them... Otherwise, they'll try the same thing in 2 years and get the same result.

    I'm afraid you don't see any of the depth in politics. Different people have different goals, and we actually need to openly discuss their goals if we're going to work together in the future.

  • 'Uncommitted' leaders stand by 2024 strategy after Trump floats Gaza takeover
  • I think that's a weak point in terminology.

    If you want to say left = liberal = Democrat, then you're intentionally overlooking the vast differences between the three groups. And even within the Democrats, there is a lot of variation.

    Most Washington Democrats hold center-right views on many major topics. For example, war, immigration, corporate welfare. Well, all of this depends on definitions, and people intentionally use conflicting terminology. But anyway, of course different political groups hold different political views. That's normal.

  • 'Uncommitted' leaders stand by 2024 strategy after Trump floats Gaza takeover
  • The "undecided" people were always decided. Decided against genocide, always were, always will be. You want them to learn ... learn what, exactly?

    We all told Harris how to win and she refused to take our advice. Even now she can't admit that she screwed up... Or maybe she actually believed her pro-genocide stance was a good one, and if so, good riddance.

  • Does anyone actually know what MAGA all agree they are getting out of all this?
  • Remember that they accurately believed the DNC were horrible. They stopped Hillary. They stopped Biden and Harris. Good for them? Kinda, not really though.

    ... We know Trump is worse. Far worse. But they saw a legitimate threat, a group of people who were not going to make their lives better, and they took some kind of action to stop them.

    And then lots of bigotry. Can't forget that.

  • How do you subtly ask what someone's hobbies/interests are?
  • If you're interested to try to get to know this person, you can ask directly as others have mentioned. They might naturally interpret it as you hitting on them, if the ages and such are similar.

    If you want to be cautious, small talk is fun and less direct. Mention something from the local community or last weekend or whatever. Talk about the weather.

  • I'm working on a website for high school writing (in English). If you want to take a look, and possibly offer feedback, feel free.

    Interesting titles

    Can you think of any titles from real journal articles or essays that are eye-catching?

    I'm writing a document for high school students taking an English writing class, and rather than create my own examples, why not use real ones? Several of my students have expressed frustration, and I have some guidelines and brainstorming tools, but what I don't have are two dozen neat examples.
