Coding should just be a part of any curriculum. It's a basic research and modern literacy skill and we shouldn't be forcing kids to learn the Dewey Decimal System instead of basic programming syntax

Jazerus posted:lol how about including economics in all forms of higher education, it's not like an english major gets economics at the moment and STEM folks don't I took a few economics electives as a STEMlord lol'd heartily at the business majors in a 300-level course struggling to understand basic derivatives don't remember much from micro or macro beyond the most simplistic reductionist views of the world. e: can also confirm that telling engineers what to do rather than having to do it yourself is much better

i was a TA at a tech-focused school for a couple semesters and it was easy to tell who was plagiarizing because the writing would transition from middle school level to actually competent and back, it made my job very easy please don't teach these engineers english what they actually need to know is german so they can read das kapital in the original language

I'm assuming the House adn Senate both have to approve what comes out of conference and it'll be subject to Byrd then?

Yinlock posted:In 1994, Pyongyang media reported that Kim Jong-il shot an amazing 11 holes-in-one to achieve an unprecedented 38-under-par game on a regulation 18-hole golf course - on his first try at golf. How much of that do you think is true? Obviously not anything related to the scores, but was he ever at the course? Was he ever at any course? Did he even know what golf was?

Xelkelvos posted:The fundamentals of econ are about as horseshit as the fundamentals of physics. i.e. They're both technically true and the math works out, but lol if those situations could ever exist or match the results IRL. Econ is a social science with regards to actually statistically analyzing markets and stuff and is about as valid as Biology in that regard. the fundamentals of physics are pretty useful on a macro scale

Jazerus posted:TE folks need more english, they are the ones with packed degree tracks that cut out the liberal arts. science and math programs are traditionally pretty broad and require a lot of humanities & social science credits IME, this is probably accurate. There's usually enough latitude in the CLAS majors to take a minor or double major and the requirements (at least in Florida) required everyone to take a bit of everything including 2-3 semesters of a language. I used my time as a psych major taking all sorts of poo poo while I couldn't do anything when I went back for an Engineering degree (a mistake I currently live with as of now)

Take a Roomba, all it does is "clockwise spiral, hit a thing? Turn 45 degrees and try again". "Computer programs that reason" don't exist and anyone trying to sell you on that is a liar.

Admiral Ray posted:they really do. it's crazy annoying to read the poo poo they write and when you call them on it they get offended like being able to communicate effectively is below them I'd attribute this to the cultural norm that "good, elegant code speaks for itself" and expressive code should read like math. Which, yeah, isn't wrong but as Knuth pointed out code is written by humans for humans and a human is going to be refactoring it someday and that's why we don't write everything in brainf*ck, so have some respect for your colleagues and don't write your docs like a six year old. Whatever.
