  There are multiple models for teaching that do something similar, let kids approach a subject when they’re ready. Yes, they goof off a lot early on, but eventually even STEM and literature call to them, and they pass equivalency exams in their late teens.

  Can you link to some more information on this? I’m curious about alternative education models

  I know lemmy is quite anti-crypto, but CBDCs seem much more dangerous to me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is definitely a scam. I guess it was inevitable these would come to lemmy, but it’s still a shame

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what are your thoughts on Bidirectional brain-computer interfaces ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t like it. I might be able to get on board with read-access to my brain (especially if I end up paralyzed or something) if I felt the tech was secure enough, but I’d be very worried about abuse of write access (writing in loyalty to the community party, for example)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to Delete Your 23andMe Data.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I tried to hide my identity as much as possible when I made the account. This included using a pseudo-random email address, fake name, fake address, and (unfortunately) fake birthday, as all of those things could be used as foreign keys to try to match my identity

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to Delete Your 23andMe Data.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It asks for your birthday to delete/access your data, but I used a fake one when I signed up…

  And any really unscrupulous actors will just setup their own encryption…

  I learned the basics of CS from this course online 7 years ago and it lead to a great career as a software dev. Hat’s off to the whole CS50 team for creating such an incredible resource and making it available for free!
