In the professional certification world, computer monitoring during exams has been standard since they started offering exams on your own computer. I was wondering how long it’d take for that to make its way into public education.

Sounds like you need to believe in yourself a little more

Eh, it’s not that bad

That’s not the same, though. I don’t necessarily know what time I’m going to be done eating dinner when I’m dining out. I can start the car from my phone while I’m waiting for the check, though, even if it’s a block away.

What car is it?

I feel like I’ve seen this exact line every time this gets posted on Reddit

Even if that was the case, the driver should’ve pressed the brakes which would’ve overrode the accelerator.

Going outside to smoke helps, which they seem to do

Look, far from me to make assumptions, but I’m thinking it’s pretty unlikely this person is white.

I’ve never heard that before and I was better for it.

In this case, both would be “Dan Sullivan ®”

The way this race lists them, it’s based on what party the candidate proclaims themselves to be.

Unless I’m missing something, it’s literally just that they think a beach full of umbrellas is ugly.

I’m not surprised, but I am disappointed

I think they mean more in the sense that not all regular users automatically have access to the community.

I don’t know if that is possible. If it is, it’d have to be local to that instance only, or accept that other admins would be able to see what goes on.

I mean, it might’ve not been illegal. It was probably hidden in some T&C somewhere. That’s the trade-off. You get a free privacy proxy, they get a free residential proxy endpoint.

I worked with a guy once, we’ll call him “Kevin”

I was making coffee in the office one day. Picture a typical Mr. Coffee type drip coffee maker. I filled the filter with grounds. I filled the glass pot with water. I poured the water into the reservoir. I missed a little - maybe ½ oz (~15ml) - that was left in the bottom of the carafe. Whatever, though, right? Coffee is mostly water, anyway. Whether that little bit went through the grounds or not doesn’t make a noticeable difference. I put it down in the machine and hit “start”.

Kevin was there and saw what happened.
“There’s some water still” he says, pointing at the carafe.
“Eh, yeah, but…” I started to say, before my brain interrupted me and I went wide-eyed.

Kevin decided that he would remedy this himself. He turned his pointing into a reaching, then a grabbing, then lifting the coffee pot. He thought he would pour the remaining water into the reservoir.

Before I could tell him to put it back, the coffee started coming out. With no pot in place to catch it, it starts going directly on the hot plate. Of course, Kevin is turning to me to argue about whether the water should be put in the reservoir or not. He’s not paying attention to what he’s doing.

A moment later, when he finally notices, he starts freaking out. Notably, this freaking out did not include immediately putting the coffee pot back on the coffee maker to catch the remaining coffee. I actually had to instruct him to put it back.

So yeah, the dumbest person I’ve worked with let coffee spill all over because apparently it’s unacceptable to have water in your coffee.
