Yeah, but the wording is weird. "34% of cruise missile bombers in key Russian airbases"
Does that mean "34% of all Russian cruise missile bombers were destroyed by hitting those sitting in key Russian airbases" or does that mean "34% of the Russian cruise missile bombers that were currently present in these specific key Russian airbases were destroyed"?
That's two very different statements with very different meanings.
They aren't wrong. Tariffs could help bring the upcoming Samsung A17 to $1000-1200.
At least not coke and buthane. That would have been worse.
If the teacher was so wrong, explain to me how a majority of the students would have understood that question and been able to figure out the correct answer and provided the correct format?
But did they? How do you know? Have you seen the other students' assignments?
Most likely, this specific task wasn't actually a homework task at all but created just for this meme.
But teachers like this exist, and I stand by that that these teachers are wrong. Understanding and actually thinking about a problem are much more important skills than to obey blindly and follow pre-set directions without even reading what the question actually says.
I'd say, a student that answers the question as expected is failing in regards to reading comprehension.
And from my experience, if a question is worded as wrongly as the one in the meme, then half the class will have it wrong and there will be a group of parents at the next parent-teacher conference complaining about it.
Sad that you don't read replies, because what you are saying makes a ton of sense, and I have questions.
I don't really have the time to try out 20 distros. I used Kubuntu quite a lot before, but I had issues with it, so I wanted to switch away. I tried out Mint, PopOS and Fedora, due to common recommendations and Fedora is the only one that really caught my fancy.
But "tried out" means "installed it, ran one game on steam, done". Don't really have time for more. Since then I have regretted choosing Fedora.
What would be a good distro if I want to game, but I also need it as a general purpose distro? I don't want to have to dual-boot between a gaming distro and my regular distro where I code and run all my regular stuff on.
I'd also like to have something that doesn't update the kernel all that fast, since my laptop doesn't wake from sleep on a kernel newer than 6.10 (at least on Fedora 41). It's a documented bug that doesn't have a fix yet, apparently.
True, even with the "Is this possible?" the student's answer should have been ok. But with the "how" the teacher's answer is plainly wrong.
In my country, the written final exams include a Q&A section in the beginning of the test, where the teacher and the headmaster are present, and where they present the tasks and students are allowed to ask questions. After that section, the headmaster leaves and students and teachers aren't allowed to talk for the rest of the test.
I noticed a missing specification in one of the tasks. It was a 3D geometry task, and it was missing one angle, thus allowing for infinite correct results. During the Q&A section I asked about that, and my teacher looked sternly past me to the end of the room and said "I am sure the specifications are correct". If there was an actual error in the specifications, the whole test would have been voided and would have to be repeated at a later date, for all the students attending.
As soon as the headmaster was out of the room, he came to me and asked where he made the mistake. He then wrote a fitting spec on the whiteboard.
I liked that guy. He was a good teacher.
That's not what it is, no.
Teachers make mistakes, like any human being, and a good teacher can deal with the fact that they made a mistake and that a student found said mistake.
A teacher who insists on being right over being correct is a bad teacher, because a teacher is supposed to teach a child understanding and knowledge, not blind obedience above anything else.
That's how you end up with a population who agree with the leader even if he tells them the sky is green.
Yeah, if the question was "Is this possible?" then the teacher's answer would be reasonable.
But the "how" in the question implicates that it's actually factual and the student should come of with an explanation how. Which they did perfectly.
Let me be clear: I wasn't arguing for the law, only explaining how it will be likely used.
Depending on the exact content of the law and the first few precedences in court, what you are doing might or might not qualify.
Since you seem to only make attachments/utilities for commercial guns, it would be likely that that kind of activity is not covered by the law. Your guns are no "ghost guns", they are commercial guns, legally purchased from a seller, with a registration number and everything. (I guess you purchased them legally.)
The gun is specifically targeting "ghost guns" that are created "at home" without registration numbers and stuff, so I don't think that applies to you.
But who knows how exactly this is going to be applied.
Banning 3D printers for the purposes of stopping ghost guns is stupid, for the exact reason you named (lathe, mill, welders, ...), especially because all of these tools are used for all sorts of stuff and creating guns isn't their main purpose. The same cannot be said for the design files, no matter whether they are for a 3D printer, CNC machines or just a manual on how to build a gun the conventional way. The purpose of such design files is to create a gun, and that can be made illegal.
Whether it should or whether it would even help to stop ghost guns is another story.
It's almost disappointing when the absurdist punchline of an xkcd comic is an actual thing that exists in reality. But then again, it's cool as hell.
