Peer review is miniboss. That paper wouldn't have survived final boss - as many replication studies as it takes to prove it false. Which is probably only few.

Terrorism needs target to be an indefinite number of persons.

If target is one particular person, this is regular crime.

EDIT: or persons. Serial killers are serial killers, not terrorists.

Ronald Reagan of California

King Ronald Reagan of California.

signed the nation’s first no-fault divorce law, allowing people to end their marriages without proving they’d been wronged. The move was a recognition that “people were going to get out of marriages,” Zug said, and gave them a way to do that without resorting to subterfuge.

Do you hear it? The sound of communism, my friend.

‘Will I ever retire?’: millennials wonder what’s on the other side of middle age ( www.theguardian.com )

Claire*, 42, was always told: “Follow your dreams and the money will follow.” So that’s what she did. At 24, she opened a retail store with a friend in downtown Ottawa, Canada. She’d managed to save enough from a part-time government job during university to start the business without taking out a loan....

After WWII, the other nations (like the UK + those in the EU) were bombed all to hell & back whereas the USA was relatively fine.

There was certain union in Europe(not European Union) that was bombed 9% by area and 55% by population.

Good post, but we really need to get out of the generational thinking.

I know rich and poor boomers. I know rich and poor millenials, and gen X/Z.

It's a class struggle. Always has been.

As I said somewhere else, it is not that boomers are rich. It's just all most rich are boomers.

It did not work out well I think, especially since people seek more immediate gratification i.e. Twitch dances or whatever rather than fully college-level subject matter provided entirely for free, oh except having to watch ads for the corporate overlords.

I can't completely agree with it. There are a lot of college-level-only channels. From English youtube I know only The Efficient Engieneer(engieneering), Thought Emporium(molecular biology, close to popsci), Marco Reps(engieneering), Breaking Taps(engieneering, close to popsci). From popsci Veritasium(mix), Practical Engieneering(engieneering), numberphile(math), computerphile(applied math).

From Russian youtube I can only think of popsci mixed with college-level: Ekaterina Shulman(politology, mix), Chemistry - Easy(chemistry, mostly college-level). From popsci: Physics with Pobedinsky(physics), SciOne(multiple hosts), QWERTY(multiple hosts, originally was about astronomy), Alexandr Panchin(biology), Vert Dider(mix, only translated from english), Artur Sharifov(mix).

automation (so... do we really need human beings at all? and also climate change makes it unlikely that we'll all survive? welp, better start killing them off in mass numbers, or better yet just let them do it to themselves, whilst *I* simply accumulate all of the wealth that I possibly can until then).

I hate neofeudalism. They use what can be used for societal progress for social regress.

It is cute, slow paced enough, but also keeps moving fast enough, it aims low but at the same time it contains high levels of content, and basically answers anyone's questions about the situation.

That I call Kurzgesagt popsci, not college-level. Not that their video lacks research, just I think such format is not collage level. I consider even this(has autotranslated subtitles, I recommend watching) to be popsci.

Examples of scientific videos: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

Examples of engieneering videos: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5(closer to popsci).

Examples of popsci: 1, 2(well, scientific journalism, but close enough), 3, 4.

Knowledge can easily cure ignorance

I accidentally wiped my comment. Now it will not be as good as it was.

Farmers need education. Farmhands do not.

Derp. Still, everyone needs education.

we could substitute gas station attendant or fast food worker, etc.

Dull, mind numbing work that should have been automated long time ago. And we are talking about schools, not universities.

e.g. doctor

Schools are not medical universities. But even in school you will be taught first aid. And basic anotomy in biology class.

farmers literally pulled their kids out of primary schooling in order to make use of them on the farm. Perhaps they supplemented it with homeschooling at other times when the crop cycles allowed... or perhaps not.

This is bad. Terrible.

to measure intelligence - e.g. if we ask what country does the city of Athens belong to

This question does not measure inteligence, it measures erudition. Inteligence, erudition and wisdom are different things. Question for intelligence would be like "bat and ball cost 1.1$, bat costs 1$ more than ball, how much ball costs?".

So long as someone else in the family does the planning work, someone who was not merely pulled out but who flunked out of primary schooling could exist in life by contributing purely manual but not much intellectual labor.

We are Homo sapiens, not Homo ergaster. Tractor better contributes "purely manual but not much intellectual labor".

(remember: American college is often equivalent to high school elsewhere in the world)

Really? Are there any examples? I like laughing at America for not having healthcare, but I don't think education can be that bad.

The reason I brought up Kurzgesagt was that even that level is beyond what people want to see.

This is very saddening.

Also for some reason I didn't do first quote and my "derp" didn't looked like reply to my obvious mistake. Sorry.

Words like "need" presumes a goal to keep people alive.

I was talking more broadly as a goal to make everyone fully functioning member of society and citizens of their own country, preferably capable of finding cognitive biases in their and others' statements and distinguishing science and medicine from pseudoscience and homeopathic antivax chiropractors.

However, as e.g. https://lemmy.zip/post/17644464 shows, we are not being allowed to have even that.

I was so often sangry lately(for last 2 years), that I'm just tired of bullshit happening everywhere.

And if even Oxygen is denied us, then surely education will be even less of a "right", for homo sapiens or otherwise.

You know, from my sofa it seems everything sucks, just some countries like nordic ones suck slightly less. And it seems the world plunges into neofeudalism with celebrations by ignorant.

current set of billionaires in charge, education of the masses - or even our very existence, in light of globalism for now and automation eventually - is no longer necessary.

Meanwhile they will do everything to keep internationalism and automations to themselves, but never for masses. I think I already mentioned DMCA as expample. Other examples are software patents(which are basically math patents), patents on nature(for example plant varieties, genes of existing organisms).

pursued to demolish what has previously been built up.

It seems it happens everywhere. How about subject called "basics of orthodox culture" in school? Secular state is so secular. Another reason to hate Putinism.

e.g. when the pandemic occurred, the response was "so what? let them die. BuT tHe EcOnOmY will go on just fine without them, in fact better without those restrictions imposed by safety protocols".

This is so stupid. Human must not be considered a tool. And I feel stupid too because at start of pandemic my opinion wasn't far from that, but more along the lines of "it doesn't help that much, why bother" rather then economy part. To be fair it was during peak of police violence and fines printing press during lockdown.

And a LOT of people seem to agree with them, whether we like it or not.

Damn. I am afraid of my country becoming like this.
