re: Kentucky to shift athletic dept. to private LLC company in historic move
Posted by WildManGoose on 4/27/25 at 7:54 pm
I predicted this a few years ago when the transfer and NIL stuff started heating up. If college sports (big 3) stay on this path then they'll end up as separate organizations that are merely affiliated with universities. Private athletic clubs with lifetime lease agreements for university facilities.

Yep, most likely their ground flare. For some reason these are considered better for community relations but they just end up looking like the start of the apocalypse.

My experience exactly. If you babysit them you can get a decent work product but it takes quadruple the time. I have a hard time imagining the company is saving any money bc of the loss in efficiency.

No, it's not. You read that on an AI generated article that conflated the coin with D.O.G.E.

Coming out of Evangeline Parish, I'd say 75% of college bound students started out at LSUE. It was essentially free. It was basically 13th/14th grade. Which was good or bad depending on how you look at it.

re: Common core prolly didn’t help with homegrown engineers.

Curriculums like Engage NY or Eureka don't exclude math facts though. They just expand into algorithms and application after the facts are established. That's what you seem to be advocating. That's been my kids experience anyway.
In any case, OP bemoaning "common core" math because a fast food cashier gets flustered from change is a lazy argument.

Common core isn't a math curriculum.
Besides, if they don't know the denominations to type into the register then the problem is far bigger than the way schools are teaching math.

re: NBC News: Hegseth Sexually Assaulted Multiple Women, Paid To Keep Them Quiet
Posted by WildManGoose on 11/18/24 at 5:58 pm
What caught my attention in the first case was that the woman supposedly woke up to a bunch of texts from her husband because she didn't go back to their room.
So, she got sexually assaulted then fell asleep, presumably in the same bed as Hegseth? I've never been on either side of one of these things, but that seems peculiar for somebody that was sober.

re: Seeing Elon bought CNN
Posted by WildManGoose on 11/7/24 at 11:09 pm
He posted a poll on Twitter asking the world if he should buy it months before he actually pursued it. I doubt he would have quietly bought CNN.
