The school eliminated the entrance exam, just like Univ of California System has eliminated the ACT and SAT.

Skool can do this shit, but there's a point where you have to perform - if you're in a real field.

To go into a STEM field, you REALLY need to have a passion, an obsession, for it. Unless you really want to do it, I don't recommend the field. Somebody that scores poorly in an ACT / SAT - at least in math - probably shouldn't enter it. They'll be miserable in it. Engineering isn't a cake field just because you sit on your ass most of the day, it's pretty laborious thinking, very detailed.

You think "I want to do X" well to do X, you have to figure out all the steps to get there, and that can be 100 steps and you have to break them all down and not make an error.

Software is easy because it's easily testable and easy to make corrections, hardware, you can't make a major fuckup or you get a dead board. You can re-wire it, but that's not ideal, you still need to spin a new board and you can't always re-wire it. Usually 3 iterations before you get something reliable, then it's cost reduction. Much prefer software although I'm trained as a chip designer, a field I'm forever grateful I never went into - you cannot re-wire that and when you get back a dead chip, well, you just cost your company $1,000,000 - how do you like that pressure?

I asked the AI chat program to write me a Toronto Star column about how power tools are racist. Spot on, if you ask me.

They do have a line of pink power tools for women. Snap-On has pink hand tools as well.

Nope, it's actually the opposite - he's a bigger creator of black jobs than Obama ever was:

Op-Ed: The Racist Roots Of Sleep

... Additionally, the inventor of sleep, Bob Sleep, was a documented racist and slave owner. In fact, many historians believe Sleep first entered the altered condition of mind and body known as "sleep" in order to avoid interacting with black people.

Anyone, particularly anyone white, who engages in sleep today is perpetuating a dangerous and harmful practice with racist roots. But this harmful history has not stopped people from sleeping. In fact, despite the fact that one in eight people who die in America dies in their sleep, we Americans continue our sick fascination with rest.

You can't be woke if you're asleep. So, if you do not want to be a racist, the solution is clear: stay awake. Forever.

For those who may not know, the pic above is not Santa, but a bishop with some "Black Petes." This is a Dutch Christmas tradition.

I also thought that it was Santa and Justin Trudeau.

Well, the solution to the NFL disproportionately hurting Black men is to make some changes. Get rid of hits and tackles and require that each team have a quota on female players (good enough for Navy SEAL Teams, just lower the requirements). Football is just a game, so no harm, right? After all, the rules have been changed before. Imagine what Bart Star would say about that later rule about not touching the kicker.

Gonna rile the Neo-cons and Conservatives, but some of the most racist stuff I've ever heard came from one of your own. This person has told me that AIDS was the result of Africans fucking animals, and nasty Chinese wet markets created "Covid".

I don’t know who said that first one, but the corporate media was the one blasting that second one about Covid. And they ain’t conservative.
I agree, however, that it is racist.

Black police are racist:

Wow, that's a pretty good set of rules for life actually.

I agree with everything on there, except maybe:

- "No tolerance for deviation from single God concept"
- "Wealth = worth"
- "bland is best"
- "Barbie"
- "Win at all costs"

I have no problem with Hindus.
Every human has innate worth as a human, but accomplishments do matter.
Bland food does kinda suck.
There are lots of attractive non-blonde women, but but there are no attractive obese women.
Win if you can, as long as you don't have to give up your morals or your soul.

Some of the others are somewhat debatable, depending on what they mean exactly.

Aside from that, those principles should indeed be taught in the family and in schools.

LOL

The title comes across like black mothers raising their kids causes problems. But when you read the article, what he's really saying is black fathers not raising their kids causes problems. The nuclear family, intact, is the most powerful agent of change and good in this world. By the way, author is black..
