All of my lab’s data is available on public GitHub repos. My Chinese student doesn’t have a leg up on anyone with an internet connection. It’s insane to discriminate like that. I can sort of see issues with DoD funded work, but basic science?

I’ve never used vpn even in the US. Private trackers and encryption have been enough for me. Also, it seems like my ISP doesn’t care. Some basic caution is sufficient to avoid consequences.
I’m jealous, but not jealous enough to live in OK.

Start with the sl command, and you can do it now 😁
Yeah, coming from nuclear, all of the buzzwords make sense. Ofc, nuclear has decided blindly trusting windows for everything is cyber security so… 😂😭
The developer’s lawyer recommended that to sue reddit for destroying their livelihood they would need to demonstrate that they had tries with the new system and it wasn’t feasible in order to make their case stronger
Not sure how you get a cause of action for someone else’s business decisions messing with your business, as a general rule. How would that work? I’m legitimately curious.
This is just ensuring that companies are forced to blacklist Chrome if they want their secrets to stay secret. It’s already happened at my partners workplace (power industry, federal regulations on security) - hilariously, all google cloud services are blocked, but Bing is fine (w/ automatic ChatGPT integration).
It will be very interesting to see how companies handle this type of practice in the long run.
shit, scihub is easier to use than the library, so we’re all grateful to her too.
I mean, I believe that he is stupid, and yet, if you know you’re stupid, you shouldn’t put yourself in a position to endanger the whole freaking world with your stupidity. So I’m sorry, but even if it is true, he still deserves to be held accountable, because stupidity isn’t an excuse.
I am not as familiar with the K-12 system, as it’s changed a lot since I went through it, but my college students seem to have gone through school with no deadlines and the ability to resubmit any and all work any time they want, with the expectation that they’ll get at least 50% just for turning in the assignment (even without their name, lol). So while year-round school with absences whenever might be compatible with this system, it’s not particularly compatible with a functioning educational system where the class is being taught as a unit and are more or less learning the same things at the same time.
Additionally, it only works if teachers are completely exchangeable, and are also allowed to take time off whenever. What is likely to actually happen is that teachers will be paid the same but expected to be on call year-round (they’re already expected to be on call 24/7 during the year in a lot of places) with no breaks and limited ability to take even sick leave. I’m fully in support of year-round school - I think it’s a great idea for a lot of reasons - but I would caution that this type of implementation might be a bit harder to pull off.
IMO, at least, education happens when there’s an actual interpersonal relationship between the teacher and the class, as well as between members of the class. This doesn’t happen with the app-driven schooling my nephews are completing, where everyone is in a different place and they just follow lessons on a computer all day with teachers as facilitators and not actual instructors. It’s why we see massive declines in student motivation - they’ve lost the relationships that tend to motivate us as humans, and that’s a really hard thing to get back. My best classes have been when there are meaningful relationships between me and students, but also between students in the class, and we are all tackling a problem/topic together. There’s something about shared suffering, you know?
How on earth would that work with curriculum, planning, and actual teaching? I mean, fine for self guided computer school, but that’s not the way kids actually learn.
This move against TikTok predates the Hamas attacks and Israel’s military action. It’s insane that TikTok’s ban is because teens are more likely to be pro-palestine.
