When did you graduate and from where? The last 10 years have been bunkers. No responsible parent want their child in a title 1 school… it’s tantamount to child abuse at this point

I agree that ideally charter schools have the same admission requirements… however, the main reason charter schools exist is because they reject the “problem childs.”

The level of violence a kid can be subjected in the bad public schools is insane. The government has failed the public in education. Charter schools are just band aids

You are right overall. I was pointing out that NYC / NJ metro is not that special either. I currently live in NJ. I think the Septa is a bit more reliable, but overall same stuff.

We need more European style metros without the French strikes though

I honestly think a $20 toll on 93 and 90 is overdue. The traffic is out of control

Newark to Manhattan is roughly 12 miles or 18 mins ride in the train. That’s the equivalent of Newton to Boston… They are roughly the same price in the commuter rail

Newark to NYC is more expensive when using the Path vs the T

You need more tracks… I’ll never understand why we don’t have more tracks. It doesn’t take that much space compared to highways

Hyde park to Forest hills: don’t we have busses for that? All zone 1a to zone 1 have alternate cheaper options such as the bus or the T.

Automation will reduce the need for so much labor that we have now. Over time, earth will probably be okay with half or even a quarter of our population… still 2-4B people.

Kids who are being born today will be insanely rich in 30-40 years as fewer kids will be born and machines will cover the gap.

The gift that keeps on giving… this guy so bad news. I hope he doesn’t something so stupid that puts the country in jeopardy

Where do you have Accenture or Medtronic? US or Ireland?

You are looking for a cash flow statement.

The company takes on debt or raise new equity to cover the short fall in cash. I don’t know what Man U does. Also they had £165M in depreciation. That’s not real cash spent. It’s possible they had positive cash flow even before accounting for cash raising activities

Yea that seems like a raw deal for part timers. Aren’t full timers required to do research or publish?

All in, even if each student pays $3K per class at 20 students a class. Paying faculty somewhere between $3.5K to $10K is very light. Teachers might be better off creating their schools and teach a class of 10 people online or to the students home.

This is insane.

I’m not sure I’m following the maths. So is it $300/week for one course taught or per credit? How much would someone teaching 2 classes worth 3 credits each make per semester.

How much do full time faculty make per week and what’s the difference in workload?

Is weed included in the smoking ban?

Ah got it. This makes more sense then.

Africans, like Caribbeans, spend a lot of their training in the US and in Europe. So at the very least, I’d expect them to perform similarly to Caribbean athletes.

That’s said, we are talking about a small number of athletes. The reasons why a few emerge above the pack can be totally unrelated to genetics while on average it plays a bigger role, if that makes any sense

He had pacers who would rotate. It’s slightly easier to run faster if you know how much more effort to given, assuming you can perform that to begin with

That’s fascinating. Didn’t know this. Being a 4-hr pacer seems easy enough, but a 3-hr pacer should be competing in the main race. If you can confidently pace yourself for a 3 hour marathon, you definitely can run it at 2:30-2:40 mark

Ironically, most top sprinters are either North American or Caribbean black people. I rarely see someone from West Africa winning. You’d think way more folks from West Africa would be winning if it was mostly genetics
