  • Yeah to be fair if you do all the homework with LaTeX there’s no reason not to set up your machine.

    I’ve even heard of someone who even used it to take notes in class… Honestly I wouldn’t dare to try and learn that!

    But yes, that’s when the macros and possibilities you don’t have on overleaf becomes really good to have.


  • Well yes but overleaf makes it possible to work on it with a mate, on any device without having to install anything, and it also saves your progress online so you don’t lose it or forget you document at home.

    If your not seeing were i’m going it’s perfect for school project. Through high school and college i’ve done all my projects with it… I think that’s where it shines.


  • In what cafes and sandwich shop do you go to? I’ve never seen one that was closed during launch hours.

    It’s getting rarer but their is some that only open in launch hours instead of the whole afternoon, restaurant can have some specific services hours. (And some cafes stop serving drinks while serving food.)

    French culture is to eat at specific hours, so it would be almost impossible to serve food only outside those.









  • But should it be work?

    Should we really have a society where selling your body is an opportunity to make money.

    For instance, it imply that some poor women are gonna take it regardless the consequence, just because it’s the best alternative to pay the bills.

    I can barely tolerate the physical straining we put on some workers. Sex work’s consequences are unacceptable to me in that same sens, sometimes worse.

    So sure, no matter your opinion we should respect them, and not incriminate them!

    And of course not all sex work is the same… to be acceptable it just requires better conditions. It can’t be something you choose out of need.




  • Listening to the teacher is the willingness i’m speaking about, and taking it in require effort. That effort can technically be lessen by intelligence.

    However having a bad education system will drive intelligent people to drop it and be unwilling to learn in the first place. I guess that’s really what you meant.

    I didn’t go to school in the US so I can’t say if they are that terrible. Where I live they were always some teachers to raise the bar.

    That said if the richest didn’t finish school, those who haven’t finished school aren’t all rich. Plenty of them dropped for the wrong reasons.

    Furthermore getting rich isn’t always the goal, some smart people are passionate about subject that doesn’t pay as well but does require extensive study. For instance sciences are such fields.

    Unfortunately deciding if school is or isn’t for you isn’t much a matter of intelligence rather than wisdom.


  • That too, in some careers you have a chunk of memorizing like med school, but in school it’s just shouldn’t be an important part.

    Memorizing is an effort too, but usually smart kids memorize easier when there is interesting topic linked to it, like dates in history, authors etc…

    Honestly as a kid I wouldn’t have bothered to learn from just memorizing an exam.

    And yes, even though it wasn’t like that for me, internet has taught me a great deal still, what a time to be alive! (That’s the catch phrase of two minutes paper, great YouTuber to learn about computer sim / AI)
