I will push back if they do suddenly decide hey, chips for everyone. You'll want to get other people on board preemptively or they'll just fire you to set an example

This is great because it's so patently not true but at the same time we live in a world where it might be.

Krankenstyle posted:depends if theres any left after hospital bills no? OK so in the US in a an accident like this the standard is you get 2x your medical bills in "pain and suffering" and normally your lawyer takes 1x medical bills as payment so whatever your medical bills are, you literally pocket the same amount even after paying the lawyers. Running up the medical bills is easy as gently caress and a moral duty. Oh and if you feel sad because of being hurt, that's on them too and the shrink bills go on the tab too.

That's been a thing for decades.

In this, the shittiest possible cyberpunk dystopia, no one is talking about the insanity of donating to a guy worth ten billion dollars.

Main Paineframe posted:don't let the tweets about the glasses distract you from the beginning of the thread education science knows a lot but has barely scratched the surface. unfortunately almost none of it is applied because people dont want to hear, "have being a teacher be a dedicated (even at higher ed level) high-paying prestigious job with strong diversity quotas, have small classes, shrink administration control and make admin a support facility for teacher-led initiatives rather than the other way around, have a variety of class styles available rather than one, adjust classes to students, proceed at the rate of learning not at the rate of syllabi, class time should never be for dumping information (that should be openly developed and maintained elsewhere MOOC style) just because that is the one thing in education that has an illusion of scaling" etc etc, i.e., poo poo that costs money and reduces the power of those currently in power so now admins will just invoke biotruths to justify existing outcomes, as its always used to do. and the research backing biotruths bullshit will get amplified and soak funding just like it does in econ, evopsych, etc

So yeah. It's reinforcing my decision this year to go back to college at night and get a graduate certificate in an entirely different field and run like hell come May. I can't live this stressed.
