But it has alcohol, usually 2-3% some times much higher, and traditionally has been poorly regulated.

>want publicly schooled kids (including browns and blacks to essentially not receive Math classes)

I don't know that I got that impression from the website I posted. It seems more like trying to get educators to better understand the circumstances of their students, but I could be wrong.

Thanks for replying, I think I get it now. We use SharePoint which has very similar issues.

> I'm just thinking that long-term military intervention to prevent capture/annexation of Taiwan is completely impossible.

You mean by China? I would certainly agree. Even with most countries not acknowledging Taiwan nationhood I would expect a strong international reaction to any military action by China due to Taiwan's special place in international technology exports.

If replacing plasma with saline works, shouldn't that occur naturally with bloodletting? Maybe there was something to the practice of leeching.

It has been done in the past, Taiwan is a special topic for the US, I don't know that they would let it get to that point without intervening either diplomatically or militarily.

This seems like a very interesting project, but the website kinda reads like a mad-person wrote it with the bizarre(to me) rhetoric about space and time and somewhat poor quality 3-D renderings. Clearly a lot of people are interested and invested in this project and making this space. Could anyone give a good explanation of what this project is/where this fits in modern art/science exploration?

I have never used Jira, could you say more about your feelings towards it? Currently we use an old in-house solution and are thinking of shifting.

I think there is something with this, and the minor resurgence of interest in C. I think people learn about the issues with memory and threads in C, use some other language and come back to C with better appreciation for what can go wrong and better care to keep things safe. C is the less fancy tool. It gets out of the way as much as VS Code does.
