  • It’s absolutely cheating - it’s plagiarism. It’s no different in that regard than copying a paper found online, or having someone else write the paper for you. It’s also a major self-own - these students have likely one opportunity to better themselves through higher education, and are trashing that opportunity with this shit.

    I do agree that institutions need to adapt. Edit history is an interesting idea, though probably easy to work around. Imo, direct teacher-student interfacing would be the most foolproof, but also incredibly taxing on time and effort for teachers. It would necessitate pretty substantial changes to current practices.

    There was an old trend of trick divers jumping from incredible heights into incredibly small pools. Cartoons would reference this with scenes of divers making trick jumps into things like buckets and cups of water. This is further playing off of that meme.

    I don’t know much about the man other than bits and pieces of how he’s handled this horrific invasion, but from what I’ve seen, he has continually shown more honor and backbone than most other politicians I’m familiar with. I don’t expect things will end well for their country at this point, but I think he is a credit to himself and his people.
