Statistically probable answers, not facts.

I’m a teacher. I do.

At this point, I appreciate that anyone can scrape it. Not just Reddit or Meta exclusively, but any start up that’s wants to compete. Sure, meta and the biggies have an easier time of it, but at least they don’t get it all only for themselves.

I wouldn’t have subbed to Spotify on my own. I’m inherited into my wife’s family plan. For me the biggest benefit is just discovering new music. I used to have a big MP3 library, but after a couple computer upgrades, they’ve kind of disappeared over the years. Having Spotify there has been really convenient for just listening toto old stuff I’ve lost as well. This said, if my FiL cancels, I probably wouldn’t sub for myself anyway.

Clearly the Japanese shouldn’t be making all our Japanese games! We need American businesses making Japanese games!

That’s Orwellian double speak if I’ve ever heard it.

No one’s silencing him, though right? They’re just reacting to what he said, which is consequence. Is this somehow challenging his right to make his voice heard?

This sort of thing is how Trump stole the last election.

Greetings. I’m an ESL teacher.

I need to make a database to help me keep track of student progress. I’d like to be able to remotely collaborate with other teachers (we’re fewer than 10 people) if acceptable. Our students are tourists and they come and go throughout the year, so keeping track of what they covered already and with whom gets really messy. Our paper system is also a useless nightmare, so I’m exploring modern alternatives I could propose while remaining mindful of privacy and without making things too intimidating or expensive for our (slightly technophobic) staff.

This is all I would like to store:

  • Student’s first and last name (or some reliable alternative)
  • When they had lessons with us.
  • Which teachers
  • What level we gave them
  • Most importantly, which lessons/topics they covered
  • A space for teacher notes.
  • Country of origin would be nice, since different linguistic backgrounds can affect English education in different ways, but it’s not necessary.

Would this kind of data set be a serious potential risk to our guests if used with something like Notion, Appflowy, or Anytype? How about with young learners? Does anyone have advice on how they might manage something like this and what software they’d use. I truly appreciate the help.
