That’s actually a really good summary of the issue. It’s the tacitly implied authenticity and “goodness of match” that being the top result implies that shifts the balance.

If they’d put a “generate AI summary of search” button to display the AI result, I the they’d be on firmer ground.

They’re speed lines, they make you type faster.

Dear Matty_r,

Honestly, invest in a Blu-ray writer and pick up some decent 25gb discs.

Not only can you play old games, but you can archive data in a relatively stable format at a much lower price point.

Meanwhile, retirement age is speeding away into the distance…

Agreed - no cell phones in school, for anyone. If someone needs to contact me while I’m teaching they can go through our admin team!

They missed out by not calling this site “nudi-dex”

We’ll damn, lubuntu was my goto for older hardware.

Here we are; a controversial take on something almost accurate. The context is there for the feminist - women only organisations as safe spaces for women to talk about the issues the patriarchy inflicts upon them.

However, the implication goes beyond the context - “man bad, no want woman safe space” is heavily implied; it’s there but just deniable enough to ragebait, allowing a feminist talking point reply. An excellent trolling strategy, though possibly a self defeating one.

The trouble is, this tactic tends to alienate rather than convert. As a historical example; Megalia’s use of this tactic created pushback from the very group it sought to defeat. Is this a measure of success, or is it an indication of self defeating anger? Tricky call.

Ehh…

Gödel basically showed we can never know which “mathematics” is the “correct one”.

“Proven true assuming my axioms are true” is closer to reality.

Online course generally implies online assessment.

The level of academic misconduct in those is insane; I caught 35% of my cohort cheating (using a method (one we never taught) they could not replicate in an in-person test) one year, and those were the ones I could prove. Online assessments just test what a search engine/AI knows really.

(For those about to tout “lockdown browsers”; it’s called “a second laptop” or just “my phone”)

I’m afraid I need to know where to purchase these in the UK. It’s a matter of vital cational security, erm I mean national security obviously.

The flavour profile has been described as "being punched in the mouth by a bowl of potpourri " by a colleague of mine.

Take a 6 month vacation and then negotiate double my pay when they frantically try to rehire me.

That’s about par for the course.

So far, the current UK government seems to realise they’ve lost their voters; thus they’re trying to appeal to the opposition’s voters.

The trouble is, no-one really wants censorship laws save for small (but vocal) pockets religious nuts masquerading as feminists.

We’ve normalised “if you are against x, you are a vile monster” kind of thinking; and thus we are now facing sweeping censorship.

A lot of the issue with logic problems is the “common sense” element required. With purely geometric problems, there are less of these to worry about.

Chess problems also work well to teach logical step application.

I’m the guy in the background saying “go back to teaching Euclid and proof in schools”, as the real point was to teach logical deduction from established facts.

I’m ok with this - lubuntu has my back.
