Having opened a Discord Server for a company in the past, $200k is about right for something of this size. KQED has the most-tech savvy listener population of a US radio station (the local NPR for SanFran and surrounding area)
Paying people to moderate it real-time will probably be most of the cost.
No, there is a push to ignore learning problems entirely unless they are bad enough to qualify for a diagnoses that merits additional funding. If you don’t pass the threshold for a qualifying diagnosis, they would rather not provide services at all.
Conventionally attractive girls have their scholarly struggles ignored because it is assumed they are pretty enough to get along. They are generally treated well enough that they don’t become a behavioral problem. They are out there, suffering their poor reading and math skills in silence because there’s no push to identify them.
You mean like the residential mental hospital system in the US used to do before Regan destroyed it?
It had problems, like any institution, but overall it was providing EXACTLY what you are suggesting.
That is literally the job of the Associated Press. They republish press-releases across publications. At this point, most press releases are written by AI at least in part, so I’m not sure a further summary would be helpful.
Bullshit. Our best recourse as parents is to talk to our children every day to ensure their life has people who will listen and understand them as a constant presence, instead of random strangers on the Internet. Just exposure to this shit isn’t the toxic part. It’s the constant exposure without context and support of caring adults to help kids contextualize the information. Just like sex, alcohol, and every other complex “adult” thing.
The lawsuit was about the fact the school knew for months about the problem and did nothing to address it. If they plausibly couldn’t know, it wouldn’t have been their fault but this was reported to the admin repeatedly and they did nothing.
There’s always churn and turnover, I’ve been part of communities that lost up to 3 of the top 5 sites for something etc. and the community bounces back in a couple of months. Streaming sites aren’t horrifically difficult to set up so they will often reappear shortly with similar interface.
I was gonna say this was some high-quality bullshit but after this year I just assume RFK Jr. was involved somehow.
Which Pixel do you think failed and why?
How do you get home internet service without a subscription? I’m down to try it.
Just a reminder that even if the core work of the transcribing is done automatically now, being a media accessibility specialist who ensures the transcribing works and it is attached correctly, performs advocacy work for accessibility, and manages these systems, is a worthwhile job and will stay so for a long time.
Nice for you to live somewhere mild enough your car doesn’t need to pre-heat but some people live in Chicago and other places where it still snows and pre-heating the car is a must 3 months of the year.
I take it you’ve never been involved in such an endeavor? What you propose would take a decade a minimum due to the sheer number of nested advisory committees that would be required for those groups to interface. Better a non-profit group begins the work and then solicits these group’s input at the design stage.
Drupal…damn it’s been years since someone mentioned Drupal. I remember it being the next big thing…
I was coming here to say this. Before NewEgg, the best way to buy computer parts was to show up at a conventions center or fairgrounds, firehall or community college for the next Computer Show. Buy some parts in cash from people who speak barely any English and then either take it all home and start assembling or hand it off to the ancient guy chain-smoking at the back door and pay him to zip-tie it together in 5 minutes for you.
Years and years of doing this and we only had one situation when we cracked the case later and found out the guy has swapped the parts we bought for used Dell components when we were at lunch. Always took them home after that.
He was living in the UK studying on a football scholarship. I can’t imagine the cultural shock of moving from rural Thailand to the UK much less doing it with the tough after effects of such a traumatic experience.
First rule of parenting: Give in right away or not at all. If it’s been long enough to type this post, you’re going to have to ignore the screaming for dessert until they fall asleep from exhaustion because if you give in now, all you’ve done is encourage tantrums.
Distract the kid, take em for a walk, talk to them in whispers until they quiet down enough to hear your and then tell them knock knock jokes.
Literally anything that’s not giving them dessert.
I have a lot of friends who have a fruit smoothie every morning and wonder why they aren’t losing weight. Bananas, apples, and grapes in particular are to be avoided. Most berries are okay.
If you have been vaccinated, then the current strains are about as deadly as the flu. We still need to keep ready for new strains and for sudden surges that can quickly overwhelm a single location’s health care capacity. This is true of influenza as well, a new strain hitting a small contained community can cause issues.
