Now I am confused about if you get the joke or not.
Formative and summative assessments need metrics by which we can demonstrate successful learning objectives and the degree to which those learning objectives were accomplished. Theoretically grades are supposed to represent the degree to which a student's advancement between formative and summative assessments demonstrates a student's progress in mastery of the learning objectives. At their core, across all students they represent the successes and failures of the teacher, the learning materials and teaching methods. Provided that a significant number of students show sufficient success and the grading mechanics are not compromised, these grades are a reasonable approximation of an individuals progress through the learning objectives.
Now... Obviously there are just a plethora of problems in practice across educational institutions. Most schools abjectly fail at any form of reasonable formative assessment and compromised grading (favoritism) is rampant which results in systemic failure of adequate assessment (grading) mechanics and a next to complete breakdown of objective assessments throughout the system. This provides fertile ground for corruption from external pressures (school funding and management cronyism/job security). The result is systemic grade inflation.
When grade inflation is rampant, it provides an othering mechanic for the social hierarchies present in the institutions that is sufficiently backed by science to be unassailable by the average participant... Even though due to poor implementation it should be rather meaningless.
I... Mean... You obviously don't, but whatever.
Sorry. I apologize.
It's frustrating trying to explain the same thing over and over again...
The tokens are how drm works. The process of DRM is token validation and enforcement of intellectual property rights granted by tokens.
I don't know how else to explain it. It feels like I am back at my original post. I don't know if you understand any better or if you still have misconceptions about what NFTs are or what DRM is or if you still think there is some magic in NFTs.
What's en passant?
Yes, in theory that would work. But they actually make main disconnect switches for this in the event that the main breaker fails. It's a mandatory install in all grid tie electrical generator systems (including solar).
Again, all of this already existed and will continue to exist with or without blockchain. There is very little novel in the implementation details of the tokens. The people who got the idea for "nft"s didn't come up with a new idea. This isn't some new math. The only portion of NFTs that is new is the cooperative signing... Which again, isn't a new concept either.
Right now, everything you described... Literally all of it... Ubisoft implements for their launcher and enforce with their drm solution.
I can't imagine that they would be trying to make that argument. 😮
Nfts, digital tokens, already exist. Their use, in the protection of copyright, is called drm. "Nfts" bring nothing new to the table of digital rights or copyright... And a whole host of stupidity.
Many large companies that support wfh, set pay scales based on where you live, not where they are. If you live in a low cost of living area you get paid less. Live in a high cost of living area get paid more.
Before you start jabbering about how companies don't do that... They do. Just because you don't work for one, or don't know about your own companies policies you should look it up. Most companies are pretty discreet about it and people don't talk about taking pay cuts to move to low cost of living area but it is common.
I mean... According to the story... Yes?
The entire Weasley clan is shown to have a depth and breadth of magical understanding that the average wizard doesn't. They are critical players in the organization that defeats Voldemort and they rub elbows with the most famous and politically powerful wizards on a regular basis.
I also think it's just supposed to be hard to make new magic and the spells that are common were built to be common.
For example, it is possible for anyone to write a new program for their phone. How many people actually can or do? How many people, with some training, can use most of not all of the programs that others have built to be productive.
I do know it, via magic. You can't prove I don't know, because you're a muggle.
Sovcits are true believers in the magic. Anyone smart enough to do as you are suggesting is stealing from the true believers.
Salsa is a fruit salad.
To be clear, it is kinder. Not much, but it absolutely is kinder. Pasture raised is what free range should have meant... But fortunately we have a word for it now.
