The rot really began with Google and the the goal of “professionalism” in teaching.

Textbooks were thrown out, in favour of “flexible” teaching models, and Google allowed lazy teachers to just set assignments rather than teach lessons (prior to Google, the lack of resources in a normal school made assignments difficult to complete to any sort of acceptable standard).

The continual demand for “professionalism” also drove this trend - “we have to have these vast, long winded assignments because that’s what is done at university”.

AI has rendered this method of pedagogy void, but the teaching profession refuses to abandon their aim for “professionalism”.

It switches to storing files on Onedrive without warning.

Prior to LED torches, the flashlights on films were turned off, and the light was painted in later, as the beam wouldn’t show up on film anyway. This is doubly true in that night scenes were filmed during the day and they just filmed through a grey filter.

It’s not free you know.

Yes, the software doesn’t cost anything but the chipset is supplied by a single manufacturer Qualcomm and costs a bomb.

By “non-political” he means pro-MAGA.

I suspect the stuff they sell in restaurants isn’t what mothers in Mexico cook at home.

What is the point of having a passkey on OneDrive ?

Sidebars are awesome when you are using the trackpad.

I also like when you have to click on the page to scroll down but virtually the whole page clicks through to somewhere else. Nice.

You know they’re exactly the same thing right ? Only north americans use the term “period”.

Old English used stops liberally, they were used in place of commas and semi-colons as well, it was called a full stop at the end of the sentence.

CBT is just a rip off of psychoanalysis with different words.
