Being aware of stuff is a fault?!

It’s tRump. He probably has the codes written in a post-it note that’s attached to his bedroom TV frame.

Every gdn teacher in the world knows that, or at least should know. It’s next to impossible to create tests that would measure understanding, and actually using that kind of tests in real life would be so time-taking and slow that schools and universities would grind to a halt.

As notabot below says, homework (and exams) are for the student. The “measuring” aspect in them gives only a sign that the student should note and act on (and of course, the society being what it is, the “measures” are also used in other ways whether we like it or not).

I wonder, when they get a grown-up president again, will they finally also begin to move to the 21st century?

How ’bout some actual chocolate? https://www.fazer.fi/tuotteet/tuotemerkit/fazerin-sininen/

…and being boring is only one of Europe’s strong points.

Well, I don’t know about Balkans, but at least for me, a half-liter beer of any kind takes 30–45 minutes. Stouts and porters are too thick to drink faster, ales too bitter etc. A light lager may be, but why bother?

There’s a easy rule. Allow ~ 45 min per beer and think how long the meeting will last. Most will actually not drink that much, but it’s good to have spare ones.
