  • It also only hurts them directly if it goes weaker though right? From an outside perspective I would understand them moving to the Euro just to simplify things, but I also think being a part of the EU has more effects than being a unified economy. It helps with travel, that’s good. But it also makes a country dependent and can void the entire principle of laws fairly easily.

    Hypothetical, let’s say a country like Hungary isn’t following the civil rights laws required to be part of the European Union. Does the EU try to squeeze them economically to make them act in a manner the rest of the Union demands, or do they settle and say, well they are their own country and we have no say there, so our rules aren’t really laws, but mere suggestions. Where do these suggestions draw hard lines, and if you hit a hard line what stops the country from printing their own currency back out and just telling the EU to fuck off. Does the EU not allow them to do so because their currency would thereby be unbalanced? Or do they allow them to under the condition they trade all their currency out somehow?

    Some things could get dicey I imagine.












  • Most people can’t afford to go to Universities for the purpose of research. Most people go to Universities for a specific college (every university is requured to have multiple colleges to be accedited) to learn information that is already known. Which is where I think we have it set up wrong. It shouldn’t cost large sums of money for a person to learn what is already known, the information should be made available for free. The tests universal and unattached to a University name. Were you able to pass the test showing proficiency in A, B and C. Yes or no, that is what we need to know you are proficient in for this job. It doesn’t matter if you went to Alabama, Yale, Community college, online seminars, w.e. Researching knowledge we do not currently possess is what I think the University setup should be pushed back towards.


  • Are you paying to know those things? I think you’re paying for a piece of paper that said you went there. The number of employers who have hired me for what my Bachelor’s of Science is for: 0. Programmers are probably screwing themselves if they are going to program later in life and using an LLM to write it. But something like 60-90 out of the 120 credit hours for that Bachelor’s degree are not programming courses. If I was in college today I could safely say I would know which courses I needed to pay attention to, and which ones I don’t. Hell I took Archeology of Caribbean Piracy one semester, fun course though.
