@ASprinkleofSage @stux Tell that to my history teacher (in the 60s/70s)!
@PaulNickson @ASprinkleofSage @stux School missed the whole point of school.

@stux We are already starting to get people who cannot think without a stable internet connection

Yeah worst of all, gym classes are making them run a mile that Uber can cover in less than a minute@stux or 1.6 kilometres. rote learning is important. music and art classes should be funded so kids can play instruments and be creative.
stop promoting guber. guber's intention was to put taxi cabs out of business then raise prices. also, guber wants to destroy mass transit.
guber pays no taxes.
schlepp. -

Hand cash to a store clerk and watch the look of sheer panic on their face. -
@econads @landelare @stux This is exactly the same reason the same people who were yelling at kids "don't trust what you read on the internet" are now trusting every piece of propaganda and slop in their Facebook feeds.
Then, "on the internet" meant queer anarchist hackers. Now it means "right wing disinformation machines".
@dalias @econads @landelare @stux TBF there was a lot of BS in Wikipedia in physics, me and my fellow PhD student tried to correct some of the stuff - it got reverted to the wrong thing.
Made it easier to spot undisclosed Wikipedia is though. -

Yeah worst of all, gym classes are making them run a mile that Uber can cover in less than a minuteIgnorance and laziness have no limits, they never had…
The only tools we actually need is common sense, fact checking and critical thinking…
Domain knowledge you gather along the way. Experience is what it is called… -

Yeah worst of all, gym classes are making them run a mile that Uber can cover in less than a minute@stux why learn a second language when you can just use a translator? Why cook food when you can just eat take out?

@stux Or teaching math that pocket calculators have been able to do since the ~80's

@stux Boy, does this ever reflect how little these people know about actual humans. The skill of memorisation is one that we use our entire lives, and develops a brain with more capacity and better recall. What you're actually memorising doesn't matter. It's the skill of doing it that matters.
@Remittancegirl @stux Or how little they know about the education system and it's purpose.

The skills involved in looking up "facts" and corroborating them as best you can are various and just as important. Asking "the drunk at the dull end of the bar" instead leads just there: to the corner of the bar. We should teach our children well. #factchecking
I should practice more.
