Most major streamers tried to follow the Netflix model where they had enough for everyone in order to justify its subscription. It may be better if the major companies broke up their subscriptions so people can subscribe to far less content.

Not that surprising. Becoming a doctor in the USA is part hazing ritual. Cuba developed a program that showed you can train doctors at a far lower cost.

The problem with killing off all the leaders is finding leaders with enough political capital to negotiate a cease fire.

They are still a union protected job on construction sites and the docks in NYC.

It gives Cuba a lot of international goodwill, so I can see a government trying to start a war with Cuba seeing it as a threat.

I’ve also joked that the American Medical Association likely wants to keep the embargo up because of the large amount of medical tourism which would happen if the USA dropped all sanctions against Cuba.

Is Armenia in danger?

France is the only country I’ve been to in Europe that does a good job providing water.

Isn’t USAID dead?

It depends on the tourist place. Europe is very stingy with water, but other tourist parts of the world aren’t.

Google destroys its products all the time. This isn’t new.

The problem for Trump right now is that he doesn’t have anything that he can point to as a win and Trump can’t walk away without it being seen as a loss.

At least it buys time for Cuba.

Well, what else would those engineers work on? Most of Meta’s product lines are either stable or dead. If they weren’t going to AI, they would just be going away.

Colleges haven’t been training people how to read for centuries; it has been assumed that people entering college could read and write with a pen for a long time and college shifted with it.

And the collegiate system wasn’t based on Confucian teaching styles.

Yeah, but part of it is because students complained, the current ranking of universities don’t include quality of undergraduate education, and the public didn’t really understand what college was for when providing funding with strings attached.

You can argue that primary and secondary school was about workforce productivity, but college was designed for leadership training.

Unless the existing staff break down and can’t do enough work to keep the place running, management don’t care.

They’re greedy, not stupid.

The point of an undergraduate degree isn’t knowledge; knowledge is only the first level in Bloom’s Taxonomy, a set of six levels of how people understand different topics.

The problem with the use of AI in college is that students are supposed to get to the application point in undergrad and that college is supposed to provide that practice. Using AI in college is like using a machine to lift weights. Sure, the weights are moved, but it doesn’t benefit the person who needed the exercise.

Don’t you understand, the Fediverse is serious business!

The outfit is effectively picked out for him. Him choosing what to wear could mean he was giving an opinion on the speech.
