It’s actually easier than that. Depending on the UC many just require completing a dedicated set of courses with a 2.0 or higher with no class lower than a C and will provide guaranteed admissions as long as the criteria is met.
No. They’re no longer allowed to use race but can, and still consider a wide range of factors.
They have to - it’s likely they have far more applicants with near perfect GPA/Test score combos then they have spots. (Noting that your GPA gets fuzzy once it’s over a 4.0 since that “extra” is going to be somewhat school and school system dependent)
Since each kid likely applies to multiple schools the process would also be extremely broken if it worked the way you suggest since the same cohort of kids would all be accepted to multiple schools and the schools would then have to backfill from a alternate list - which would also be the same cohort of kids…

Is it? That’s news to me. I grew up thinking it was standard to just have 5 grade points for honors and AP classes. I guess the nuance comes into the bar for a class being “honors,” vs. AP which has a more consistent definition given the standardized exam?
A significant, and growing, number of schools (many of them independent and high end) are no longer offering AP/Honors classes. Which means that you now don’t have a level measure for comparing GPA.
To the original point though it’s one of many reasons why GPA + Test scores isn’t really a standard metric to be used on their own for merit based admissions. It’s really just a bar after which you have to take additional factors into account.
They’re not de facto laws like some of the presidential orders. He created a task force to research the issue and directed the municipal consumer and worker protection division to prioritize enforcement of existing laws.
I’d assume the goal of the task force is to propose new laws which should be pretty easy to get passed.
Without a doubt there are toxic work environments and bosses that think the way you’ve stated.
That said my point of view as a manager was to try to hire people who could take my job someday. Those were the people that would make me look good by having a great team. I don’t need to steal their thunder because the higher you go in a healthy organization the more it’s about having people that can execute your strategy then about your individual contributions.
The best analogy for this I see is in the NFL when new, young head coaches seem to be afraid to hire experienced coordinators who have been fired as head coaches because they’re afraid of hiring their replacement if they fail. The thing is those ex head coaches were undoubtedly successful in their previous coordinator roles which is why they got a head coach gig to begin with and are likely the best option for making the new head coach successful.
Long story short it’s up to you to determine which type of leader you’re working for and and take ownership of moving on when in a toxic situation as opposed to a healthy one.
I honestly don’t follow this much but I doubt that production ramp up is the Cybercab’s long pole when they’ll need a significant number of market approvals for FSD to reach critical mass.
Huh? Volvo is a subsidiary. Almost every legacy car company is a subsidiary of some kind. Lamborghinis aren’t German because they’re owned by Volkswagen group and often have Audi parts and Jeep isn’t Dutch because they’re owned by Stellantis.
Well I have recently noticed many news organizations don’t refer to the Detroit automakers as ‘the big3’ anymore. They make it a point to say ford and gm and quietly leave Stellantis out of the mix.
Although Stellantis has strong presence in US as formerly Chrysler and Fiat Chrysler, the reality is they are not American auto company anymore. I’d guess they’re counted as European.
Would you consider Ram as still being American? I have to assume a lot of their manufacturing is still done in the US due to a limited international market for their trucks.
i am not sure if this would need a different name, you may just have this association because you are using little snitch, but they have completely different use-cases. for now this will just be a way to display ss/netstat data in the terminal in a nice way
I immediately thought of that too. The names these people come up with are so embarrassing. And I'm not even talking about the meaning of 'snitch'. But you already have a tool within the same IT area that is basically named the same. Why the hell would you do that? Aren't there other words in the dictionary?
Huh. I view it the other way. If you’re supply constrained go straight to the consumer and capture the value that the middlemen building on top of your tech are currently profiting from.
My understanding is that they did a study on the feasibility of Electric Garbage trucks in NYC. The problem was that NYC Garbage trucks are also used as snow plows and it killed their range.
That article suggests electric trucks are suitable for 2/3 of garbage routes and 100% of street sweeping using technology that was already outdated in 2022.
It also suggests NYC was moving forward with the program and bought seven more trucks which would have already aged out by now.
Amazon was a large investor in Rivian (they led a $700M round and own about 16%) and have a commitment for 100k vans by 2030. Amazon’s been using their vans here in Northern California for a couple of years now.
It’s the Transfer Admissions Guarantee program.
