It is shocking how many people there are in this thread that try to downplay this. And the sad thing is, most if not all of them arent getting paid a dime to shill.

Thats like saying congress is run by millennials because some of them are millennials. Most of them arent.

That paper isnt dealing with the same issue that I am talking about. Learning chinese isn’t going to compromise someones’ ability to understand physics. (Unless the problem is written in chinese I guess) But being weak on unit conversion will absolutely compromise their capability to learn a concept where the first problems they are meant to solve are written in a way that requires unit conversions.

In my experience tutoring thousands of students, one of the most common scenarios that I see is that a student struggled in an area like that, was taught in a way that relies on that weak skill to learn the new skill when that was not necessary and then struggled with the new skill as a result. Thats the sort of scenario that this thread is about. Mixing in concepts unnecessary to understanding into a problem thus overcomplicating it before the student has a solid grasp of the concept. That does make it harder for them to learn and its something bad teachers do.

This is not true. I literally have to fix conceptual issues that students have because people do this to them.

Neil armstrong etc. were all the silent generation. The boomers were in their 20s.

You work indoors for 9 hours a day, 5 days a week with little to no exercise and are inundated with multiple concurrent tasks that require prolonged concentration and a lack of errors and wonder why you feel exhausted?

I have tutored thousands of students. You are going to need to back what you say with relevant evidence.

If your goal is to teach new material, you teach that material specifically. You dont mix other things into it because 1) it makes it harder for them to learn that new material and 2) it makes it harder for you to figure out what they dont understand.

Probably shouldn’t have committed all that fraud then.

To emphasize the privilege this guy has.

Only when they ignore or argue with the person theyve asked for help.

If you’re going to do that, you can flail on your own.

Being ignored and/or argued with about something that I have the credentials and experience to understand better than the person arguing with me. Especially if all they do is regurgitate what chatGPT or their favorite political figure said instead of their own thoughts and opinions. Look dude, you’re unarmed and I am giving you one chance to walk away before I violate the geneva conventions.

Libraries, museums, local mom and pop stores, basically a complete rejection of what these places stood for.

People are going to eat and drink things that arent the best for them. Thats the reality. And if theyre going to do that, it makes sense to minimize the harm in a practical way.

As for artificial sweeteners being harmful, testing them at levels hundreds, thousands of times what is actually used is not the way to do it. Give me a mechanism for harm to occur that makes sense and evidence of harm that reflects their actual use.
