║ what if universities offered two types of degrees: cutting edge, and first │
║ principles. │
║ │
║ the cutting edge education is for people who want to be proficient in their │
║ industry immediately, who want to work with the newest technologies or │
║ practices, and who want to lead their field forward into the future. │
║ │
║ first principles is for people who are concerned with the truth of things, the │
║ way that they are and why they are done as such. They ask *why*, more │
║ than *how*. They are interested in creating new branches on the tree │
║ of progress, of forging new possibilities and developing new fronts in the war │
║ against the unexplored. │
║ │
║ Foundations are just as important to a house as it's roof. However, no house is │
║ complete without walls, so each degree program would have both. │
║ │
║ They could share some classes. The cutting edge still needs a bit of a │
║ foundation, and there surely are opportunities to practice the fundamentals │
║ that both would appreciate. │
║ │
║ I believe this may increase our overall int score and give students options. │

If your leaders don't represent you, pick different leaders, and get them to
work together. Federate, don't splinter. We are stronger together even if we

why did youtube ban me I want to lash out

there is no chance at all that I would ever have deleted it, it was precious to

nobody wants to write computer code that lets Java programs call Rust functions.
An LLM is excellent for this task, since it's relatively easy busy work that
doesn't
reflect any meaningful implementation decisions besides "I should be able to
call that Rust function in my Java code"
In addition, it is technically efficient at it as well, because most of
compatibility
is matching up two sets of documentation. Easy for a text-processing machine.
