Du genre, des trans et du n’importe quoi dans nos écoles
Cela faisait longtemps qu’on n’en parlait plus, mais heureusement, l’actuel ministre de l’Éducation n’a pas lâché l’affaire : en quelques annonces et quelques tweets bien léchés, il vient de remettre les questions de sexe et de genre dans les têtes de tout le monde. Youpi, nous allons continuer à parler de zigounettes et de pratiques sexuelles […] ⌘ Read more

This guy is just such an idiot lol.

• There’s no such mass migration to “the south”. Tons of people are leaving Mississippi, Louisiana, Virginia, and New Mexico for instance. I don’t know enough about the states with net influxes like Texas and Florida but I suspect they have policies that make it attractive for people to move there
  
• Not everybody is able to take account of long-term trends when they make housing decisions. There are financial reasons, family reasons, educational reasons, etc that impact such decisions
  
• But of course, most laughably, cheap energy is fast becoming a thing of the past, and so the problem isn’t “solved” by cheap energy, it’s just kicked down the road. And ffs, cheap energy is literally causing the very heating that he pretends air conditioning will “solve”–like “solving” your drinking problem by staying drunk all the time
  

This oversimplification to drive some kind of political point is so embarrassing coming from someone who pretends to be a university professor. It sounds like a teenage doofus from a 1980s movie talking. He well knows all these things, but he decides to present these views anyway.

Éducation nationale : le niveau passe de mauvais à alarmant
Gentiment, calmement mais avec une détermination qui confine à l’obstination, les réformes s’empilent dans l’Éducation nationale ; après celles du lycée et du bac, voici celle du lycée professionnel qui, outre l’introduction de rémunérations symboliques des stages en entreprise, va en augmenter le nombre et la durée. Rassurez-vous, ces rémunérations – entre 50 et 100 euros […] ⌘ Read more

When I read this I see a a niche, super premium hardware company that managed to acquire tens of thousands of customers by word of mouth. Not only that, their customers are all in-effect self employed or small businesses with huge average revenue per employee. They manage global supply chains, intense competition, all while taking on and managing huge legal/compliance risk. How is is that supposedly “dumb,” criminals can do this, and yet many of us are stretching our intellectual capacities to learn new technologies and maths, developing our nth stupid app, trying to achieve a fraction of the customer traction and revenue that street thugs manage to do every day. Are these people much smarter than average, or does it mean that if you sell something people actually want, literally nothing else matters about your intelligence, education, character, background, or anything at all. When I read these drug stories, it just reinforces for me that growth solves everything. You can succeed with a crew of violent, drug addicted idiots whose only reliable characteristic is short term thinking, and who spend half their time in prison if you have product market fit. What I’m beginning to think is that the “smarter,” people are in a company, the less anyone will want their product. It’s like the success of a venture is inversely proportional to the number of ostensible geniuses it employs. reply How Police Secretly Took over a Global Phone Network for Organized Crime | Hacker News

Hot take: the ‘great books’ model of liberal education is insufficiently liberal, not because the ‘great books’ are insufficiently diverse but because the canons students engage with are insufficiently different from each other.

Bad idea of the day: require a payment of a dollar (held in escrow by the copyright office) to send a DMCA takedown notice. The dollar goes to whoever is determined to be the legitimate owner, in case of a dispute. If there is no dispute, it goes into the federal education budget.
