A random teacher in any school across the US has done more for society in real terms than you have in a decade.

You could be part of the open data movement and a researcher in your spare time not stocking grocery store shelves.

Yes I’m suggesting your credentials are worthless. Why do we need full time university researcher role play when millions the world over are “researching” software engineering?

There are far fewer teachers. Sounds like a pay rebalancing given market realities is in order. Coders are everywhere. Minimum wage for them!

How dare we reap privilege on babysitters freeing devops engineers to copy-paste off stackoverflow

Enablers, just like in the US, are complicit.

People will say whatever the status quo says or they’ll be booted off the island.

All that’s been proven is we can apply patterns of discovery well defined by info theorists a century ago to electron state in a machine.

Only 14% of the adult public has more than a bachelors. Religion proved it is not that hard to convince the majority in titillating nonsense.

Individually none of the specific discoveries that go into SpaceX or Google were invented there. Iterating on well known ideas with well known technology is what humans do. It’s fascinating and interesting.

The figurative gibberish about a minority is to serve nation state propaganda about how amazing it is here. But inside the gulag we all defer to the minority needed to sell the illusion.
