And the curriculum is determined by the government, correct? And the intent of banning smartphones is to force all students to pay more attention to that curriculum, correct?

And yet, filling my head up with over a decade of information from a public school education was essentially useless to me. Studying programming on my own (not offered in my school…

These are government schools, are they not? Paid for by tax dollars?

You could use the same logic to ban all sorts of things for adults. And many governments do, to everyone's detriment. Alcohol prohibition says hello. It's exactly this type of gene…

Welp, you asked for my opinion. My opinion is that if you literally can't think of a valid use for the entire internet in a classroom setting, then you aren't trying very hard. It'…

Do you think instead of teaching English we should be banning books, because some students read trashy novellas in class and distract themselves?

I get your point, but space exploration and robots everywhere aren't the only types of "wildly different" futures. People just have latched onto those two things as facile benchmar…

Because you could have the answer to nearly any question at your fingertips, and yet it's arbitrarily taken away? How is it not a punishment?

Completely agree. I also think, "disingenuous" since it's the most obvious fake answer, and also "uncreative" since they couldn't come up with anything better.

I always just say I'm impatient. Which is true and interviewers never seem to mind it.

I'm not sure why all students should be punished just because because some cannot use a new tool well. Socialism at its worst, in my opinion. The irresponsible drag down those with…

Could you name a few of these that you're referring to? I'd love to read more.

And this is why government projects are essentially doomed to fail versus capitalism, in the long-view.

Raising the minimum wage will simply result in jobs being replaced by kiosks. Not that it won't happen soon anyway, but why hasten it.

I'm still waiting for my web framework in pure ASM idea to manifest.

Bad software makes $$$. It's a trend I see over and over and over.

I need to do this right now. Where's my office sofa. I really do wish more US companies encouraged power naps, they are provably good for productivity.

Underrated post, completely agree. There have been several times when I wasn't doing so well financially and I wondered -- if I'm this smart (not to be cocky, but top 1% at least) …
