<p>Agreed. I don't agree with the underlying design decisions either, but you literally set a "Budget Alert" on Google Cloud. It's designed to be an alarm, not a cap. I was just trying to point that out</p>

<p>No, I think Google should provide easy tools to actually cap spending, instead of recommending you set quota limits on your APIs.<p>The article, and the comment I was replying to, make it seem like an error in the Google Budget system. I'm simply trying to say this system is working as designed and documented.</p>

<p>I am the last person to defend Google Cloud and it's awful UX.<p>With that said, when you go to set a budget it warns you "Setting a budget does not cap resource or API consumption.

<p>Realistically, what did you want to happen? The cop to check the computer logs and see who changed your hours? Was it even someone in the store, or from corporate? Jurisdiction can get messy...<p>Proving someone intentionally changed your hours as opposed to a mistake or software bug is not the police's job. It quite literally is a civil crime and belongs in civil court, not criminal. I don't even think most police are trained in civil laws. (Atleast, not in my state?)<p>Catching someone who takes money out of a cash register is their job. That's textbook theft, a criminal activity.<p>I hate cops as much as the next guy, possibly more, but that just doesn't seem like their area<p>FWIW, the government <i>is</i> still (supposedly) working to resolve your issue...your tax dollars are still at work. Judge, Public Defender, blah blah blah....It's just not the job of a first responder</p>

<p>1. Yes, and elsewhere in the thread I am suggesting proctored exams as well. Agreed.<p>2. I believe there is value in identifying issues with the current implementation, as it's required to fix them in the next implementation. This isn't a project I'm working on, related to my career path, or anything I'm passionate about. I am simply stating that I find the current implementation is flawed, and I believe it stems from the mindset of the original comment's "I wouldn't like cheaters to compete with honest students on the job market." I understand there is a difference between being resourceful and cheating, and using LLMs to write essays is clearly cheating, but, as someone who is not an educator and does not have children, I assume it is important to instill a sense of resourcefulness as well. If the entire purpose of education has become the job market, and the job market rewards resourceful people....<p>3.Seems to be replied to in 2.</p>

<p>That's an answer I don't have, and am not qualified to make. I'd defer the decision to teachers and those who work well with children already, I just don't think this current iteration works.<p>If I had to guess, it would look something like a software that confines the student to the software and provides interactive lessons and exams...but I'm a computer guy, my answer will always be "use a computer"</p>
