News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

I work 80 % remotely, I know what I'm talking about. MS Teams is by far the worst latency-wise, but even on the best software you can't get over the fact that there will be a 200-300 ms jitter buffer.
Ever had the "yeah I- so we - OK go ahea- sorry -"? That's what I'm talking about.
Good on your daughter if she learns well remotely, but literally everyone I've talked to who was in education during COVID had an awful experience. Although I suppose in the school system it doesn't matter as much since with 20-600 students per teacher there's not much back-and-forth going on anyway.
Remote work is great for focusing, it's great for async workflows (slack/discord/email/jira), it's great for solo work, but it's just plain inferior for certain highly collaborative workflows like 1-on-1 teaching. There's enough good reasons to work remotely that we don't have to lie about the rest.
You mean the exact same thing that has happened with telephones since the 19th century?
I don't know how old you are, but I am guessing anyone here over 40 can tell you about how the training they were given was "read this book and get started" more than once.
Right, and last I checked people weren't remote working too much before the 21st century.
If your job doesn't want to train you properly that's on them, but assuming all parties involved are acting in good faith I will always go to the office to train a junior employee.
And yet, they still didn't need a person training them to do their jobs.
As I said, not everyone learns well that way and maybe you shouldn't assume they will.
