Is it possible that the curriculum is maybe too high level for the students enrolled in it, but they are being made to enrolled in it without the path for an lower level course first?

I don't really have a great understanding of university course structure for reference.

Edit: Read some more comments bellow. Got my fill of theorizing about why students might be trying to take the easy way or why teachers might be struggling to educate effectively. Feel free to ignore me lol.

I think even if you don't eat meat there's reason to be mad. Cause they killed a bunch of animals, and put it at prices where people can't afford to buy and thus might have even more waste. So a triple whammy of corporate greed, excessive animal farming, and food waste!

On the plus side maybe people will be forced to buy more ethically farmed turkeys this year, or reduce meat intake all together, cause its looking like these are more expensive then any locally grown Turkeys I've seen.

For additional context on my take: I do eat meat, despite being morally against factory farming. So, I try to reduce my intake of unethically farmed food and try to use as much of the animal as possible.

I don't think we'll see this any time soon, because corpos probably won't listen to any creative that presents this, but I want something where the LLM runs locally and is just used to interpret what you are asking for but the dialogue responses are all still written by a writer. Then you can make the user interaction feel more intuitive, but the design of the story and mechanics can just respond to the implied tone, questions, prompts, keywords from the user.

Then you could have a dialogue tree that responds with a nice well constructed narrative, but a user who asked something casually vs accusatory might end up with slightly different information.

God if the Chevy Bolt was like idk even 35k I could maybe justify it but ideally I think we need the Hyundai Elantra of EVs to exist..something in and around the 20k mark for them to be a purchase normal people can make without sticker shock

I've experienced a similar decline in interest. Mostly because of one key thing, I got an e-bike.

The cost of gas was way too expensive, and I considered selling my gas powered car and buying an EV but the used and new market is well above anything I can afford, they only seem to produce SUVs or crossovers instead of anything the size of a Honda civic. I figured I'd just keep the gas car I have until it beefs it and use it for multi person trips, or far away trips.

Like it really is hard to beat when I can spend 1500-3000 on a bike that costs pocket change to charge, and doesn't cost an arm and a leg to maintain. Honestly with the lack of public transit in a lot of Canada, a bike and whatever car you already have is a great way to save on gas money.

I wonder if they are banking on, to put it into meme terms, "Heartbreaking: The Worst Person You Know Just Made A Great Point".

And obviously I mean that in terms of a "great point" for the opposition.

I really don't know anything about the parliamentary system of this country, hell I barely know enough about my own country, but this seems like at the best an interesting play and at the worst a huge miscalculation that will bite them in the arse.

Overall I think you're right. Just like this whole shit is so sad. Both antisemitism and Islamophobia are on the rise.

Like I could give two fucks about how the governmental bodies and regimes involved are pushing any narrative, when we see the litteral human cost being reported constantly. But, I know I'm not well informed enough to have a good conversation on what should be reported and what is being reported is filled with fluff and skewed to support certain sides.

The only thing I have been able to tell concretely from the reporting is war is hell.

Oh I don't want to be mistaken, I agree people shouldn't wait around if they are able, it's just that there are a lot of barriers in the way.

I kinda have the mind set of if you're able to make the change yourself now do it, and if not complain and demand accessibility for it until you can.

Corporations have been shifting blame on to regular people for years, the whole carbon footprint concept was basically invented to shame individuals.

While individual action is important, the biggest individual action we can take is really for societal and legislative changes.

For example, in order to avoid motor vehicles, and flying, the government needs to invest money into viable alternatives. We need better bike, active transport, and transit systems. In order to eat more veggies and reduce agriculture emissions we need the govt to subsidize and incentivize those alternatives to the consumers. Cause poverty certainly gets in the way of dropping things like Dairy especially. Second hand goods, without enforcement of the right to repair means that you're gambling on whether or not you're going to be able to find someone or parts to fix your used thing in the event something breaks.

I could go on, but the gist of it is access to a lot of the things you're asking for requires government change. Some folks are lucky or diehard enough to find the means to make these changes themselves, but the everyday person needs help.

I will also say, this isn't a doomerist view on things. The government at all levels has been using the money from the Carbon tax to fund things like the Greener Homes Grant, Bike and eBike rebates, and EV rebates, and adoption is high! Look at all the houses switching to heat pumps in the last few years since these rebates have come into play!

Depending on the area the golf course is located in I guess. It's definitely something bank rolled by rich dickheads, but I do see a lot of blue collar folks owning or renting golf clubs in my area. Probably because it's a reasonably cheap way to spend a day during your weekend doing an activity.

Now I don't intend to defend the rich, the owners of golf courses, and the rich that bank roll them. We should be holding their feet to the flames.

I am on VanillaOS and it's a pretty similar situation, although I will say the immutable nature makes it a little harder to find error logs and such.

I'm planning on doing something similar to that with an air to water heatpump and an oil fired boiler to heat up an indirect water storage tank. I hear it's more easy to get a forced air solution installed like your friend has, but low and behold apparently something does exist for those of us with hydronic heat.
