Right? I'd like to see a video. They must've just maintained control of the ball? Or were they actively keeping both goals?
Meh. I was working on a personal project yesterday to answer some questions I had about how liquidity risk works for money market mutual funds, and to forecast/nowcast liquidity risk and NAV risk for a bunch of funds.…
If so, that's an even stronger reason that the shift toward "the parent is always correct" on the right is extreme and stupid. My parental rights end where the rest of the class's fair allocation of the teacher's…

Common Core is just a set of standards. This is a bit like criticizing the API because one specific implementation of the API is garbage; you may be right, or wrong, but what you're criticizing is not relevant to the…
The article does mention they used a curriculum from Hillsdale College, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's some general creepiness imbued into the course design. That said, I can teach an entire course on statistics…

The issue with "Parental rights are supreme" is that there are tons of parents whose demands will make it impossible for your kid to learn much of anything. In our district, we had to put AP CS on hold because…

It applies to PEOPLE of all ages. The law is about public libraries, NOT public school libraries. 100.00% of FY 2022's allocation went to NON-school public libraries.
There is a clear difference between Hustler and a graphic novel that contains some sexual representations. You are employing an old and tired strategy: latching onto any lewd expression and then dismissing the rest of…
Someone will reply to this with a list of news articles purporting to contradict you, and all of those articles will be about controversies surrounding books available in high school or public libraries.
Then you're okay with the status quo and can ignore the ongoing moral panic about school libraries. The books that people are flipping shit about are not currently and never have been available in elementary school…

The flip-side of urban areas subsidizing rural areas: rural lawmakers threatening to cut funding is something of a nothing burger.
It's Missouri, so I highly doubt the money is equally distributed among libraries. You can see where aid goes here: https://www.sos.mo.gov/library/development/stateaid/default And then you can look up or estimate the…
Huge caveat is that some BNPL services don't require credit checks.
I can't remember the last time I paid for groceries with anything other than a credit card. Or even saw someone else pay for groceries with plastic, which is hopefully CC or EBT since using debit cards at POS is kind of…
BNPL doesn't make much sense if you have access to typical quality credit lines. The x% cash back on groceries, plus a month of interest on deferred payment, is probably a better deal than the extra duration on the…
The level of sexual activity and number of partners may be lower than people in the early 20s (btw, that's certainly not universally true). But that's only one part of the transmission story. The other part of the story…
