Bad bot.

1h old account following the same bot behaviors as that Docker user.

Suspect.

I mean yeah none of that is wrong but all I said was I like gamification in learning, not that Duolingo was the best form of gamification ever presented.

I ended my sub and deleted my account when they announced they’d be replacing their contract workers with AI.

Lingonaut looks promising. And I’ve been trying out Language Transfer for Spanish. I’ve learned more about how Spanish “works” in an hour of Language Transfer than I did with months of Duolingo. I’m smacking myself for wasting the time - though I do enjoy the gamification.

It’s the University’s responsibility to act when students make reports of hurtful comments coming from a position of power.

If Negy wanted to spew his hate - he could have gone and sat his ass on the Free Speech lawn. Not his lecture hall.

First things first, fuck this article and fuck their ugly-ass AI slop.

Secondly, I’m not gonna comment on the legality or what is protected under 1st amendment- it’s not my expertise. Negy is a piece of shit and everyone I knew who had him as a professor was glad he was gone. His hateful comments weren’t reserved for twitter - he said that shit during his lectures. I also suspect his tweets were a stunt to drum up sales for a book he published around the same time. It’s so easy to sell to conservative morons. Just say some inappropriate things, cry like a baby when the consequences of your actions appear, then hold out your hand as hicks, the sexually repressed, and just plain assholes come flocking to empty their wallets for you.

I don’t attribute it to malice. A misleading claim is just that, misleading, whatever their intentions.

It’s alright if we disagree.

I stand by that. It is a bit disingenuous (purposefully or ignorantly) to call 11% “en masse”.

Business administration and marketing aren’t bad skills to have. But the majors are flooded and neither are considered particularly difficult to achieve. If your intention is to stand out in the workforce, those will fail you.

11% is certainly not nothing, but the vast majority are not working these jobs.

I’m not really sure how you can look at 11% and say “yes, they are working these jobs en masse”. A bit disingenuous.

Edit: Post OP and others continue to downvote - yet can’t counter. I’m sorry college didn’t have the outcome you expected, it’s definitely no longer the golden ticket it once was. But to claim it isn’t a benefit at all, or indicate that most college grads are unable to use their degrees is at best misleading and at worst disinformation. There are a lot of variables, including the major you choose, and how much you spend to complete the degree.
