I don't think homework load has adjusted in some classes. it was hard to do the homework and learn honestly, it was just copying and finding previous answers. it actually detracted from the learning experience.

it would be nice to have something that could explain it to me, like a tutor. My mom paid for me to have a private tutor to get me through a compressed calc 3 summer class. Best I scored in a math class other than diffy-q.

so I think it's, like everything, on the student. but fuck the homework load at some places, it's not a good solution.

It is annoying though. I'm pretty sure they're trying to make it easier but it's confusing. The real issue is that none of the old folks at my station care about keeping up the NREMT up as they don't even have one, and the career folks just care about state which is automatic as part of doing their jobs.

Just remember that for every CBT you do online, you also do a hour of practical sign off.

I would find it quite hard to stay in practice just doing the test, nothing beats the randomness of patient contacts.

it's a lot easier to get someone out of an opioid od in the field than it is out of cardiac arrest, or at least the treatment protocol is.

You could also very likely optimize the current models to be a lot more energy efficient, that'd be a win even if they didn't become more intelligent.

But none of that stops anyone else from researching or improving their models. Or a nation you've told to fuck off from doing so as well.

As has been said in the past, one doesn't put the genie back in the bottle. We only really "stopped" researching nukes because there was diminishing returns. Though one could posit we stopped because simulation became good enough or a myriad of other reasons.

When you're talking about nation state weapons capabilities I don't think you stop, but ai is even easier to share than nukes, it's just a few gigs of numbers versus heavy dangerous materials that are very difficult to source and make. Every gamer, mac owner, etc has the equiv lent of a centrifuge on their desk. Not everyone has a centrifuge on their desk.

just off the top of my head:

https://www.summitatsnoqualmie.com/webcams all of these are live most of the time

agreed that "every" is a bold claim. I can find more with a google search.

(edit) the site doesn't even let me suggest more. oh wait it does, it'a an almost invisible link at the bottom.

and man the form is annoying... url, email, catoregy, country, lat, lon... why not just right click place webcam done with it... I know where it is on a map, but this makes me go to google maps, find the lat/lon, copy them out, paste them into this other form....

like do you want to pick up that piece of toilet paper you dropped on the ground in that thing with nothing to clean your hands other than sanitizer?

funny enough, I find many public campground vault toilets to be pretty clean, because the camp hosts clean them daily. theworste one I've ever seen is the first bathroom into yosemite from sf. it's not because the homeless are coming from SF to shit there. It's because a) that's the first place you can panic dump, b) there's a line, c) that's where the tourists go. it's also the most graffitied one by far.

if you don't give people a way to clean up easily... then you're dependent on the official service interval. shits gonna happen.

If you have heart issues, you're likely taking nitro daily for chest pain.

So saying it's bad is 40% wrong at least. Makes ya think.
