A lot has been written about side hustles and how to make a living "working for yourself". But there IS a path to $1MM/year as a traditional employee. Here the framework that no one seems to acknowledge: marketingbs.com/post/million…

Buchanan was clearly a gay president (likely had an affair with William Rufus, VP of Pierce). But he was also one of the worst presidents so no one wants to claim him. Instead we call him our only “bachelor president”

TMZ: “Are we going to have a female president first or a g*y president?” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY): “Well, we don’t know if we’ve already had a g*y president. I think there’s chances maybe we have but I don’t know.”

Too much of education is built for the adults and not for the children
Chrisman@chrismanOct 21
Direct instruction is incredibly effective but never took off because it's boring for the teacher. Teachers, like all people, want to be creative in their job. The solution is obvious: let software do the boring teaching work.

It wasn’t that bad. Two toddlers and a newborn were really hard though….

It’s not just seminar discussions. Science fairs are just as bad. No: your 12-year old hasn’t invented a new way to create unlimited energy Build a knowledge base first. Then you will be ready for innovation later

Ok I’m going to be *actually* conservative here: high school students shouldn’t sit around a table in "seminars" They should learn. A high school student has nothing interesting to say about Beowulf, sorry, and having a "seminar discussion" around his thoughts on Beowulf is a waste of his, his classmates, and the teacher’s time.

But I’m sure UBI would work out well here

What's crazy about socities like Saudi or the Gulf is the native people don't work. It's 50 million people living off oil money. But it's not like they are creating great art. There's no interesting films. Songs. Literature. Games. It's just guys hanging out all day

We’ve gone from knowledge about the world doesn’t matter because you can “look it up” to knowing your own address and phone number is unimportant

Forget the stepsisters, Cruella and Malifecent, this needs to be the next “villain was actually the hero story”

The activities of the villainous boy in Toy Story are awesome: blowing up his toys with fireworks, reassembling them, combining them with random hardware Andy is stuck in his mind, playing pretend in his room Sid is mastering the toolbox and the flame, rearranging the universe

Ug. This is bad. I was excited by this project. But this is bad news. I expect the people involved have no idea how learning actually works…. Wonder if they will talk about learning styles next….

Growing up my wife’s takes copy of sound of music started when Julie Andrews is walking to the home (“I believe in me”). It wasn’t until college she learned there was almost 30 minutes of film before that

I’m re-reading Huck Finn now. It has made my laugh out loud multiple times.

The most charitable interpretation of this passage is that the author has never read Moby-Dick, as it is often hilarious.

When teaching a 5-year old history he will often mix things that seem obvious to an adult. Today he asked his mom: “Can you tell me about what you were doing during the XYZ affair?” “What?” “You know, when the planes hit the twin towers” Xyz - 9/11: All numbers and letters….

This is just not true. At most private schools Parmets need to be VERY careful what they say. They are hard to get in to and if you are a troublesome parent you are asked to leave. And you are counting on the guidance counselor for recommendations for high school/college 1/x

I've been working in education for 20 years and I've never heard parents describe being *afraid* of the institution they formerly had students enrolled in. Just the opposite, usually they are eagerly to complain, loudly. Here, the wealth and tactics of Alpha School scare them.

The @Alphaschool is far from perfect. But the idea that people are “afraid” to say anything is ridiculous. If they are it’s not on the school who even have “deans of parents” for every location who’s job it is to listen to parent concerns 6/x

Alpha is not highly selective. So it’s never “if you don’t like it, leave. You are easy to replace” that comes from other elite schools. It doesn’t mean disruptive kids or parents might not be pushed out, but the incentives to do that are far lower for alpha than other schools

More opportunities doesn’t trump that female coded occupations tend to be lower status. My guess is that male lawyers and doctors do fine even as the % female there increased.
