#one of those used to be the villain and is still not on side but is putting up with bond for some ungodly reason even he can't fathom

today's hot take is that Andreas of Eraklyon is basically just the Chosen One who's grown up into a man with PTSD who's still being manipulated by the person who put him in that position to start with.

Bond/Felix/Della Headcanons for Polyamory Day
I think the screencap speaks for itself, but just in case anyone had any doubts, here is a ship manifesto:
The above scene occurs.
This is the second time that Della kisses Bond again on her wedding day.
Della's idea of ways to pull her husband's best man over to where she wants him is to grip the fabric at the small of his back this way.

Raoul Silva/Tiago Rodriguez Headcanons
In honor of headcanons day, here are some about arguably my second-favorite villain.
He's Portuguese by way of Macau rather than being European. As a result, he speaks Cantonese, Mandarin, Portuguese, English, and Macanese with equal fluency.
He's got multiple sisters, none of whom know he's alive as of Skyfall.
He considers Tiago Rodriguez to be his name. Silva is an alias at best that comes from two of his middle names combined.
He was framed by General Chang when the Chinese stealth technology went missing in early 1997. The timeline lines up exactly with the events of Tomorrow Never Dies.
He's on some fairly serious pain medication more or less constantly and has some leftover health issues from being tortured for five months beyond the obvious damage to his face
His hair is that color naturally.
He was 008 during his time with MI6 - the one that M mentions calling in from Hong Kong during Living Daylights who "follows orders, not instincts".
He absolutely can't drive to save his life nor should he with the said pain meds on board.
His only pet is a small black rabbit.
He's got a playlist for just about everything (yes, including vengeance)
Like M, he's got terrible aim. He prefers explosions.

Alec Trevelyan Headcanons
And of course, I can't do a post about my second-favorite villain without doing another about literally my favorite villain/character in the entire series!
Loves driving but frequently gets relegated to the passenger seat if Bond is present
He's the sort who has names for guns he likes
Comes from a working-class background but hides it now that he's a double-0. That crisp accent is hard-won and slips sometimes.
Alec didn't defect. Instead, he woke up after the explosion and was subjected to torture for months using a combination of physical pain mixed with the kind of drugs they use to cause amnesia during surgery. They'd hurt him, force him to repeat what they told him, and then make sure he didn't remember any of the actual events consciously. They'd then wake him up, "explain" things to him, and let him assume the pain and anger and fear he felt was the result of betrayal. He might never fully remember any of this.
He's allergic to mushrooms and certain other fungi.
He's always been fond of a good explosion.
Reports of his death have been greatly exaggerated. In fact, they're outright lies, because Bond could no more drop him off a satellite than he could voluntarily take a vow of celibacy. Instead Alec spent several years getting un-brainwashed.
He and Bond have a dog named Spring. She's a Staffordshire terrier and they name her Spring because she's bouncing up and down out of boredom when they find her.
On mission, he's all charm and elegance. Off-mission he's a cheesy chips at the pub and cereal for breakfast without bothering to get dressed kind of guy

My #1 post of 2022
ok but for real - POV: you're Saul Silva. Your dad died at your hand because of a Burned One, you killed your best friend because he wanted to slaughter civilians, and the PTSD off of both of those things is off the charts, and that's before we get to the bit where you fought a war and had to imprison your former commander for war crimes. You raised your former friend's son because you're a good egg trying really hard to do the right thing.
And then - and THEN - in the space of a few months - you yourself get infected by the same thing that killed your father. You find out that the thing you killed your friend over is maybe not what you thought it was and those civilians were potentially actually enemies after all. You find out that the friend you thought you killed is alive and has been in hiding for 16 years, the commander you imprisoned gets free and has you arrested, and then you find out that your other friend who hides you and who helped you take down your evil commander is the literal Worst and that friend tries to kill you using your former friend who you thought you killed. Oh, and the former friend ends up dead again and now your foster son semi-hates you because you didn't quite tell him the truth about what happened to his dad.
Oh, and on top of all this, your other friend whom you've spent all these years with, who relied on you and whom you loved dearly, is now dead too because of your former commander.
How the fuck is Saul not rocking back and forth in a corner somewhere having a breakdown? How is he even remotely still sane?

Reflection 10: Fuga Modus
(Task 3.2)
I came across Joyce Camilleri’s pandemic-encouraged series quite by chance; currently they are a body of work exhibited at the relatively little Jo Borg Gallery in Sliema, which I randomly happened across while walking home in the evening along Manuel Dimech. Finding the works to my liking, some research told me that the series has travelled around various exhibitory avenues, including MUZA and Il-Kamra ta' Fuq, and with some luck ended up in my own very area. The series themselves were created with a veritable multitude of media; oils, inks, and graphite on canson, acid-free paper, archival boards, or hot-pressed paper. They were created consecutively after one another during the onslaught of lockdowns and quarantine measures at the beginning of 2020, as a result of the termination of live-drawing classes that Camilleri habitually attended. Normally a figurative-oriented artist, Camilleri regularly practiced figure drawing and portaiture during these lessons. When it was announced that they were to be discontinued, Camilleri set about in a new direction, propelled by a vastly changing charged atmosphere of tension and uncertainty.
Owing to the fact that Camilleri lives in Luqa in close proximity to the national airport, two factors relevant to this were responsible for conceiving the series. First, Camilleri noticed the lack of revving engine noise that she was accustomed to hearing – a change she in part appreciated – and instead was confronted with a newfound silence that just kept on lasting (Camilleri, 2021). Secondly, the clear space and fields around Luqa presented Camilleri with a newfound subject matter to draw inspiration from. The natural shape language of the familiar Maltese landscapes readily available to her began to take precedence as a point of inspiration in her work. Thus, sitting at her drawing table, she “switched [her] mind on flight mode” (Camilleri, 2021) and began to work.
A prolific user of the printing press, Camilleri’s oeuvre is rich in aesthetic derived from and composed of print. Monoprints, especially, form a large part of the artist’s process, often creating the print first as a collection of vague, outlines forms and contours, and setting about filling the spaces with a range of simultaneously wet and dry media. The variety of techniques applied to paper are perhaps not evident from photographs, but very much so in real life. Plentiful amounts of grain and noise inform every inch of the achromatic fields and sections, lending the paintings a pleasant matt texture, which prevents the spaces from acquiring a glossy and plastic-like consistency. I feel this is significant, as it creates a certain feeling of void or absence; an empty negative space full of millions of particles, rather than a smooth and gleaming ruber-iness.
The works take a change of direction over time. Placed on the walls according to size and visual theme, the smaller works begin as vertically-oriented and sectioned into large, sharp value shapes selected from the low-key range. They then exponentially increase in scale, and lines begin to faze out through the rendering and blending of forms; the depictions acquire a more palpable sense of volume and resemble turbulent landscapes, seascapes, and horizon lines. All throughout, they keep their texture, value, tone, and adherence to flowing in a singular direction.
The works can be analysed endlessly. Camilleri exemplifies her talents in composing with value, and mastery over the simple basics in order to evoke an essence of timelessness and absence.

Why did Hema turn around again?
Hou Yi’s words are not an exaggeration.
If starting a business is to sort out the inside first and then conquer the outside, Hema has only been able to completely sort out the inside HE Tuber nine years after it was founded.
Since its establishment, Hema has tried more than 10 business formats, including Hema F2, Hema mini, Hema Neighborhood, Hema X member store, Hema Outlet, Hema Premier and so on.
Trying means unknown results. According to public data, Hema lost about 3 billion yuan in the first quarter of 2021 alone. It was not until January 2023 that Hou Yi issued an all-staff letter, officially announcing that the main business Hema Xiansheng had achieved profitability; in April of the same year, He said in an interview with the media that Hema has achieved full profitability in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023.
If what Hou Yi said is true, it will be even more critical for Hema to hold on to this hard-won result. Especially in the face of severe competition, Hema needs to prove itself with sustained profits.
In May last year, Alibaba stated in its financial report that the Alibaba Group's board of directors approved the launch of the listing process for Hema, which is expected to be completed within the next 6 to 12 months. But soon, news came out frequently that Hema's IPO might press the "pause button."
Alibaba said in its third-quarter financial report that Hema's initial public offering plan is on hold while the group is evaluating market conditions and other factors necessary to ensure successful project implementation and enhance shareholder value.
On the other hand, according to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, in November 2023, the national consumer price dropped by 0.5% year-on-year; on average from January to November, the national consumer price increased by only 0.3% compared with the same period last year.
“Price reduction” has become the unified theme online and offline.
Online, JD.com and Taotian have both given up their positioning of focusing on the urban middle class/white-collar population and embarked on the path of low-price strategies; last year’s Double 11, major e-commerce platforms, MCN companies, and anchors also all aimed at “the lowest prices on the entire network.” The dispute over "price" was fierce.
Offline, in the face of the explosive trend of Mixue Bingcheng stores with more than 20,000 stores, consumer brands such as Heytea and Nayuki's Tea have also launched low-priced beverage series.
Similarly, in the supermarket format, not only Hema and Sam's are engaged in a price war, supermarket chains such as Yonghui, Wal-Mart, and Carrefour have also lowered their product prices.
It can be said that Hema and many supermarket brands have also reached a time when they have to change.
Today's low-price strategy has the meaning of "a strong man cutting off his wrist" for Hema, and can even be called a "key move" for Hema. But can this move bring Hema back to life?
3. If the giant changes direction again, what are Hema’s chances of winning?
The low-price strategy has indeed attracted consumers' attention to Hema, but if Hema wants to achieve and maintain full profitability in the short term through "discount reform", how far is the journey ahead?
On the one hand, it will still take time for Hema to shift to a low-price strategy. Since Hema's discount reform was officially launched in October last year, its relationship with its suppliers has attracted widespread attention from the outside world. At the end of December last year, Wang Xiaolu announced that he would stop cooperating with the Hema system because he was dissatisfied with the discount reform. It is emphasized that "the price is the lifeline of the company and dealers, and selling in violation of the price is harmful to everyone's common interests."
Many other brands have also become dissatisfied with Hema, including mid-to-high-end tea consumer brand Chabiubiu. Its founder once issued a long article to denounce Hema, saying that since October 21 last year, Hema’s products have been removed from the shelves, and tens of thousands of boxes of goods have been required to be removed within a time limit; he then accused Hema of unilaterally removing inventory products. The price was reduced from 79 yuan/box to 39.98 yuan/box, causing many customers who had placed orders at high prices through other channels to ask for refunds.
On October 20, 2023, Gu Guojian, a professor at Shanghai Business School, published an article on the public account and revealed that because Hema’s low-price strategy has destroyed the market price system, big brands have begun to suspend and cut off the supply of Hema, and carry out a “strangling” style of encirclement and suppression. ".
This is a problem that Hema must face with its low-price strategy,
but fortunately Hema does not seem to care about the "breakup" of the partnership. It is said that Hou Yi not only forwarded Professor Gu Guojian's article, but also revealed that because of selling a certain milk product at a discount, , Hema has been "banned across the entire network" by the dairy company, adding that this does not affect Hema's determination to promote discounts.
This also shows Hou Yi's determination in reform and his confidence in future victory.
However, the discount reform is just the beginning. Hema will continue to implement the low-price strategy in 2024. According to Sina reports, Hema’s goal is to streamline the number of Hema’s SKUs from the existing 8,000 to about 5,000. . This data means that Hema Fresh will be closer to the two major benchmark brands in the future - Sam's Club's SKUs are controlled at about 4,000 all year round, and Costco's is even less, about 3,700.
Hou Yi also said that in the future, Hema will implement the "753" price system, that is, KA products are 30% off the market price, private brands are 50% off the market price, and late-issue products are 30% off the market price.
A large number of SKUs were "eliminated", and the prices of branded products were discounted by 30%. This was too fast and too fierce. It is understandable that such a strong medicine would make it difficult for partners to resist in a short time.
For Hema, this may be a strategic shift decision, but what is involved behind it is the interests of the entire industry chain. It is difficult for many brand owners to respond to the new price system and supply requirements with a single order, so they can only "resist" by suspending or cutting off supply.
It can be speculated that if Hema cannot smooth out the cooperative relationships with many brand merchants in the supply chain in a timely manner, and does not even care whether they are willing to continue to cooperate with them in the future, it will have an adverse impact on its long-term development.
From another perspective
the discount reform currently implemented by Hema has become a standard feature in the consumer field, rather than an exclusive advantage.
First, Sam's, which is fighting against the "mountain-moving price", is also implementing discounts. Zhang Qing, chief purchasing officer of Sam's Club China, recently told the media that in the last 12 months, Sam's invested nearly 1 billion yuan in cost reinvestment in product prices, allowing dozens of products that members purchase daily to achieve long-term price reductions.
At the same time, other domestic supermarkets are also lowering their prices. Under this industry trend, it is difficult for the discount reform to bring any exclusive advantages to Hema.
Secondly, the sudden rise of real-time retail will also have a huge impact on the domestic supermarket industry. On December 1, 2023, Meituan Maicai quietly changed its name to "Little Elephant Supermarket" and launched a series of price reduction promotions; recently, platforms such as JD Daojia and Ele.me have also made frequent moves in the direction of instant retail.
For Hema, in the current discount reform, its competitors are not only supermarkets such as Sam, Yonghui, Carrefour, and Wal-Mart, but also Xiaoxiang Supermarket, JD Daojia, Tmall Supermarket, Duoduo Maicai, and Dingdong Maicai. and other online platforms.
Hema is currently facing a very complex situation, which is a great test of the strategic determination and execution ability of the helmsman. However, reform will inevitably have pains. What is the chance of Hema winning? It can only take a long time to see the results of the change. At this time, any It's too early to draw any conclusions.

Education
4 things to watch in 2024 on San Diego’s education beat
From chronic absences to enrollment declines, San Diego County schools spent last year continuing their attempts to bounce back from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
This year is likely to bring the same challenges.
The consequences of the pandemic remain evident: Chronic absenteeism remains high across the county nearly three years later; fewer students are enrolling in the state’s public education system; and districts are grappling with the county’s growing homelessness crisis.
Now, educators are turning to potential solutions.
Here are four education issues to watch in 2024.
Chronic absenteeism
Despite recent improvements, state ratings show that nearly a quarter of the county’s students last year were chronically absent.
Before the pandemic, that figure was 11%.
It’s a troubling trend for educators, who say chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of instructional days — can be caused by socioeconomic issues, school climate and lack of engagement, among other reasons. Children of color had higher rates — chronic absenteeism for Black, American Indian, Hispanic and Pacific Islander students each exceeded 30%.
Chronic absences also affect school budgets: The state bases funding on how many students show up every day.
Last year, the county Office of Education formed its third cohort of the San Diego County Improving Chronic Absence Network, which aims to improve attendance rates. A report on the cohort found a decline in the number of days students missed class when attendance interventions, such as “nudge letters” informing parents of the absences, were implemented.
More than 40% of students enrolled in one of the 18 participating schools during the 2021-22 year were considered chronically absent. The next year, the rate dropped about 9 percentage points.
The third cohort ended in the spring. A fourth cohort — 19 campuses across five school districts — began in the spring and will end participation in May.
Officials also are recruiting additional schools to start a new cohort later this year.
Student homelessness
San Diego’s growing homelessness crisis has impacted kids, too: More than 16,000 homeless students lived in the county during the 2022-23 year, according to state data.
A controversial law went into effect over the summer, making it illegal in the city to camp citywide if shelter beds are available, and anytime, regardless of shelter availability, near schools, parks, transit hubs and along waterways.
San Diego Unified, the county’s largest school district, considered offering overnight parking to unhoused students and families on vacant district properties, but the idea has not yet come to fruition due to funding issues.
But once funding is identified and a contracted service provider is hired, “safe parking” at Central Elementary could be offered within the next six months, board member Richard Barrera told inewsource in late October.
Barrera said the district plans to redevelop Central Elementary in City Heights into affordable housing for its employees, students and their families. But it may be several years before breaking ground on the project, he said.
The district also aims to provide roughly 500 employees with affordable housing by redeveloping its headquarters on Normal Street in University Heights and moving its main office to Kearny Mesa within the next two years, Barrera said.
Enrollment declines
Districts across the county are continuing to report fewer enrolled students.
Enrollment at San Diego Unified has declined by 14%, or over 15,000 students, within the past decade. As a result, classroom sizes have increased and some teachers have been reassigned well into the school year, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported in October. Superintendent Lamont Jackson acknowledged the concerns of parents who say the late reshuffle affects students’ learning and emotional wellbeing, vowing to improve the process next year.
Partly driving the enrollment trend are parents who are finding charter schools and homeschooling more attractive than public education. Enrollment at charter schools in the county has grown by about 30% within the last decade, according to state data.
Families are also leaving San Diego to live in more affordable locations.
South Bay Union’s drop in enrollment is so severe that the pre-K-8 district is considering closing schools. The district, which serves students in San Ysidro, Imperial Beach and south San Diego, had about 6,000 students in 2011. By 2025, it’s projected to have about 3,200 — a loss of nearly half.
Community schools
School districts, such as San Diego Unified, hope that transforming campuses into community schools will also help with attendance rates.
Community schools provide services through partnerships with local organizations based on the needs of students and their families.
San Diego Unified launched its first group of five community schools in 2022. Ten additional campuses — six elementary schools, one middle school and three high schools — have been undergoing a transformation since the start of 2023.
Community schools were already a concept at the Chula Vista Elementary School District about 50 years ago, but just this school year it welcomed its first two community schools.
Services offered can differ at each campus depending on the community’s need, but can include access to free food, health care, counseling, dental services, tutoring, after-school programs and parenting education.
The state has allocated $4 billion to convert thousands of public schools into community schools. Research shows they have a positive effect on graduation rates, academic progress, attendance and a reduction in disciplinary incidents.
But questions remain about how San Diego Unified will fund its growing model beyond the state funding, and whether data this year will show it’s making a difference.
The district will need to provide the state with a funding plan by the end of the 2024-25 year.
Meanwhile, the state is facing a record deficit of $68 billion.
Some community schools have already conducted an assessment to help campuses understand the needs of their students and families.
Results from Chollas Mead Elementary families show a need for transportation and extracurricular activities.
It’s challenging for some parents to get their child to the Chollas View school because they don’t have a car, Karina Pina-Armas, the site’s community schools coordinator, told inewsource. Students have also expressed a desire for soccer, she said. Like many elementary schools in the district, the campus does not offer after-school sports.
Officials at Chollas Mead are working to provide families with bus passes in partnership with the San Diego Association of Governments, the region’s transportation planning agency. They also plan to offer after-school soccer starting in February, Pina-Armas said. *Reposted article from inewsource by Andrea Figueroa Briseño on January 8, 2024

Final Blog Post: Youth Creativity Hub
Our youth creative media project is finally up and running. Choosing TikTok as our platform was a game-changer, and we've already garnered a couple of hundred views, a comment, and a follower! The engagement so far seems to be from young people as well, which is promising.
Initially, our idea was to create a website for a digital art gallery where youth could submit their artworks to be published. As child and youth care practitioners who are advocates for mental health are wellbeing, our overarching goal of this project was to encourage creative expression among youth which (we hope) would lead to the promotion well-being in our participants and audience. Additionally, we wanted the youth who engaged with our project to feel like they were part of something, and to connect with their peers through art. Community is so important when it comes to mental well-being.
However, unlike a website, TikTok provides us real-time insights into audience engagement, allowing us to connect with our viewers more dynamically. We also expanded our reach by creating a Linktree page featuring mental health resources and a curated playlist, ensuring our project serves as both a creative outlet and a supportive space for youth. We want to encourage not just creative expression, but youth media creation, as the only other way to engage with our content other than liking/commenting would be to film themselves and their creative works and upload them using our suggested hashtags. Our readings from week 10 discussed the importance of youth media creation and the roles it serves for youth (Fisherkeller, 2021). Additionally, this project places youth as not just consumer but creators of media and media culture, as we encourage youth to creatively “respond” to our challenges and art activities with their own trials and creations (Aarsand, 2021). This project can perhaps also contribute to new media literacies as we thoroughly discussed in this class, encouraging skill development and engagement with physical artistic media and digital media on TikTok (Jenkins, 2006).
The transition to TikTok, however, presented its own set of challenges. What seemed like a straightforward process of filming a couple of art tutorials turned into a meticulous undertaking for me, personally. I was forced to creatively problem-solve as a result of my lack of equipment and recent experience with filming and video editing. I was able to make a makeshift tripod using stacks of books and dishes, and balancing my poor phone on the edges of shelves to give the viewer a “birds-eye view” of what my hands were doing. Each TikTok required 45 minutes of filming at least! I faced technical challenges such as my lighting being too yellow and too harsh, realizing unwanted elements in the frame only after I had finished filming, and realizing that what I was drawing on paper wasn’t even showing up on camera and having to re-do everything all over again. Also, I had to plan out scripts for the TikToks and jot down which camera angle I would use for each line of script I wrote. The planning was extensive but I enjoyed the challenge!
Decisions about whether to include my voice or film myself added another layer of complexity. Struggling with camera shyness and apprehensions about potential criticism about my appearance (not that there I'm anything particularly notable about how I look…it’s just that TikTok can make you feel insecure about things you never thought about before!), I opted to keep the focus solely on the art for now.
In terms of my role in this project, I believe I took on several key responsibilities that laid the foundation for Youth Creativity Hub. I was responsible in conceiving the initial idea that led to the creation of this project. I feel my partner and I were able to collaborate seamlessly as she was enthusiastic and on-board with the ideas I put forward. I also named our project. I believe “Youth Creativity Hub” is fitting because it represents the demographic we wish to reach and also encompasses our commitment to serving as a central hub for art tutorials and a safe space for creative exploration. I also created 3 engaging TikTok videos which entailed two art activities and one mindfulness activity. Further, I created and set up our TikTok account and made sure to draft meaningful and engaging captions for the videos I uploaded with appropriate hashtags. Finally, I used Canva to design our logo which unifies our brand.
Through this project, I was able to re-discover the joy of creating videos again, a hobby I had set aside for about 10 years (I initially wanted to pursue a career in digital media before I chose child and youth care). I used to “mess around” and film and edit videos when I was a teen, and eventually started “geeking out” once I started my (now deleted) YouTube channel and built a following (Herr Stephenson, 2021). ****I initially set out to only create 2 TikToks, and I ended up creating 3. Perhaps post-semester I will explore TikTok some more and continue making videos, not just for my own enjoyment but to also to foster a community of young creators. My aspiration is that our videos will not only spark individual creativity but also nurture a supportive creative space for the youth on TikTok.

Why NVIDIA CMP GPUs Fail Gamers: Secrets!
NVIDIA CMP GPUs are not meant for internet gaming, The videographer explains why?
NVIDIA CMP 50HX GPU was first built for crypto mining, however it has now been repurposed as a gaming card due to its superior performance. However, it does not especially impress in terms of its performance. NVIDIA CMP “crypto” GPUs are utterly inappropriate for gaming due to the fact that they have a restricted number of PCIe lanes and no driver support.
In 2021, when cryptocurrency mining was at its height, the CMP range was first made available. NVIDIA saw an opportunity to meet the needs of customers who didn’t expect their GPU to do much more than mine efficiently and designed a version with less features just for them. Although the series produced results that were satisfactory for the purpose for which it was designed, the conversion produced results that were appallingly poor for gaming.
Sfdx they show YouTuber, just lately carried out an evaluation using a variation of the MSI NVIDIA CMP 50HX. This the graphics processing units (GPU) characteristics 3,584 Gpu cores, 10 GB of GDDR6 memory, and a 320-bit interface. The memory runs at a speed of 14 Gbps. These characteristics place the GPU on a level that is comparable to that of NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, which was the flagship product of the Turing series at the time.
Although using the CMP 50HX for gaming may seem like a simple endeavor, it is really rather challenging due to the fact that the GPU has a specialized BIOS and does not have a display interface. However, if for some reason you are able to get it to function, the next significant obstacle is the driver for the GPU.
There were no game drivers available for the NVIDIA CMP GPUs since these graphics processing units were not designed with gaming in mind. To get them to work, you need to use an earlier version of a certain driver and a version of Windows that does not do driver validation. This enables “unofficial” drivers for the GPU to be installed and utilized.
However, it must be remembered to keep minds that employing such techniques could end in significantly reduced performance. Due to this, they recommend opposing employing of such methods in any circumstances, since performing so wouldn’t actually result in an advantageous manner.
Sfdx Show put the NVIDIA CMP 50HX GPU through its paces with a variety of games including Counter-Strike 2 and Cyberpunk 2077, however the gaming performance was not on level with that of the RTX 2080 Ti, nor did it equal the performance that would be predicted based on the GPU’s hardware specifications.
In spite of having a visual RAM that is above average for its class, the GPU was only capable of delivering an average of 25 frames per second while playing Cyberpunk 2077. This is due to the fact that the CMP 50HX has a restricted PCIe lane width, which effectively causes it to become bottlenecked and leads to the aforementioned results. As a consequence, the performance has decreased. Crypto mining tasks only stress the VRAM more than the GPU itself, but gaming workloads need both GPU power and VRAM power on board the graphics card in order to attain maximum performance.
When NVIDIA first unveiled its CMP series, the firm was so caught up in the so-called “crypto hype” that it didn’t even bother to investigate alternative applications for the GPUs that it was developing. In addition, the limits in terms of PCIe lanes and driver compatibility make things more complicated, since the GPU cannot be optimized in any manner for any use other than mining due to the constraints in both of these areas.
However, now that the cryptocurrency craze is passed, NVIDIA has moved its attention to artificial intelligence, and you can now see GPUs designed for consumers being utilized in AI, data centers, and workstations. Will AI-specific GPUs such as the PCIe H100/H800 or A100/A800 now be used to run games? The only way to know is to wait.

CJ current events 5oct23
LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. – A criminal trial for former Loudoun County Public Schools Superintendent Scott Ziegler will head into its fourth day Thursday as he faces charges that he retaliated against a teacher for blowing the whistle on sexual abuse, and for cooperating with a special grand jury empaneled to investigate the school system following its coverup of a bathroom rape. Former teacher Erin Brooks testified that a 10-year-old autistic student would grab her genitals dozens of times a day while making sexual motions with his tongue, and that when she said her workplace was becoming unsafe, administrators gave her a piece of cardboard to hold in front of her groin and offered to buy her an apron to, as Brooks said, “slow down the penetration.”*** The charges Ziegler is facing this week stem from allegations that the administrator punished a teacher for cooperating with that grand jury, and for talking about another incident of sexual abuse which she feared LCPS wanted to cover up. Brooks said she was a dedicated special education teacher who withstood hitting, spitting, and biting without complaint, but that this was something much worse, and she was concerned for the student as well as herself, but that the school district’s response was “feeble.”*** Mackey read her performance evaluation of Brooks in court, which repeatedly seemed to blame her for her own sexual assault, and said her failure to control her classroom led to a student being moved to a different class, which the evaluation said was the major black mark against her. “Mrs. Brooks displayed rigidity in responding to the needs of a student, resulting in the student being removed from the classroom,” it said. Prosecutors asked Mackey to show the jury what she wanted Brooks to use the piece of cardboard for, and Mackey stood up and held it in front of her groin. “I would have expected her to be professional enough to work with this student,” she said.*** Evidence at trial showed that Brooks was Special Education Teacher of the Year in 2021, and got glowing reviews in early 2022 — only to have Ziegler recommend that the school board fire her, the only teacher he did that to.*** https://www.dailywire.com/news/in-his-criminal-trial-former-loudoun-county-superintendent-blames-sex-assault-victims

Let's see how the evidence pans out
An exonerated man who was released from jail earlier this year has filed a civil rights lawsuit against the city of Chicago. Lee Harris, 67, was released from Stateville Correctional Center on March 23. Previously, he was wrongfully convicted for the 1989 murder of Dana Feitler, sentenced to 90 years in jail, and spent the last 33 years there. Now, he is suing 10 Chicago police officers over 20 interrogations over a matter of months that put "enormous psychological pressure" on him until he falsely implicated himself in the crime. In addition to allegations of a coerced confession, Harris claims that his rights to due process were violated, that he suffered malicious prosecution, and that emotional distress was intentionally inflicted on him. He also claimed that the officers were negligent during the investigation. Harris is requesting a jury trial out of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. “I’ve been unjustly convicted of a crime I had no part in," Harris said when he was released. "I trusted the wrong people, and that’s what got me a 90-year sentence.”*** https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/crime/man-wrongfully-convicted-to-sue-chicago-police

Nobody wants Cuckoo's Nest
Crime and homelessness are big issues in the 2024 presidential campaign, as rising lawlessness brings the topic front and center for Republican voters. Beyond the obvious calls to hire more police and clear homeless encampments, a handful of presidential candidates have resurrected a long-ago idea — bring back the mental institutions that were largely shuttered in the 1980s. "Over the same period that we sought closure of mental health institutions, we have seen a spike in violent crime in this country,” Vivek Ramaswamy, the biotech entrepreneur and 2024 GOP hopeful, said in August. “That doesn’t mean drugging up a bunch of people with Zoloft and Seroquel. It means restoring purpose, faith-based approaches and otherwise. But those are politically incorrect discussions right now. Cops doing their jobs and mental health institutions, I say bring both of those things back."*** Advocates say the proposal not only promotes clean, safe cities but could help mentally ill people who are not being done any favors sleeping outdoors or sitting in prison.*** https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/campaigns/gop-presidential-hopefuls-call-to-bring-back-mental-hospitals

The family of Johnny Hurley, the 40-year-old man mistakenly shot and killed by an Arvada police officer after he stopped an active shooter in Olde Town Arvada in June 2021, will settle a federal civil rights lawsuit against the police department for $2.775 million. Hurley’s family and the Arvada Police Department announced the settlement in a joint statement released Thursday morning, and the family hosted a news conference on Thursday afternoon at the law firm Rathod Mohamedbhai in downtown Denver. The lawsuit was set to go to trial on Oct. 6 and was in active litigation until a few days ago, attorney Matthew Cron said. Hurley’s mother, Kathleen Boleyn, said she was relieved to not have to go through the anxiety and stress of the trial and to save her friends, the witnesses and her son’s acquaintances from that stress.

A Missouri dad charged with murdering his wife allegedly wrote his name in blood on her butchered, half-naked body — then texted his sister saying it was “way easier and more satisfying than you can imagine.” John Wonder, 31, is charged with first-degree murder for allegedly stabbing and strangling his 29-year-old wife, Ashli Ehrhardt, inside the Kansas City home where they still lived together despite going through a divorce, according to a probable cause affidavit obtained by The Post. “I keep thinking about how she never screamed. Just took it like a champ,” the accused killer allegedly later wrote a friend on social media. “What a gal.” Wonder had dropped their young children, aged 2 and 4, outside his wife’s parents’ home at 8:40 a.m. Friday, speeding off without talking to them, the affidavit said.*** https://nypost.com/2023/09/28/missouri-dad-of-two-allegedly-murders-wife-writes-name-in-blood-on-her-leg

The Tennessee teacher charged with raping a 12-year-old student was rearrested Thursday after she was caught texting the victim — warning him that he would “regret” reporting her to police. Alissa McCommon, 38, was taken into custody at her Covington home and later charged with aggravated stalking, harassment and coercing — just three weeks after she was busted on rape accusations, according to the city police department. The former fourth-grade educator had been released after posting a $25,000 bond under the condition she ceases any communication with the boy she is accused of raping in 2021. McCommon tried to skirt around the parameters by allegedly messaging the 12-year-old from a previously unknown phone number. “The evidence indicates McCommon texted a victim, using a specific code word known to the juvenile as a code word McCommon would previously utilize to confirm that the juvenile was alone, often before sending nude photographs on SnapChat,” Covington police said in a statement. The mother of two then sent a flurry of messages warning the boy he would “regret doing this.”*** https://nypost.com/2023/09/28/outrage-as-12-year-old-rape-victim-is-ignored-as-she-pleads-for-help

A former contractor who worked with the Internal Revenue Service until 2021 was accused of disclosing tax return information of a high-ranking government official and "thousands of the nation's wealthiest people" without authorization, according to criminal information filed Friday in Washington, D.C. Although the court documents do not reveal the name of the government official, a person familiar with the matter confirmed to CBS News that it is former President Donald Trump. Charles Littlejohn, 38, of Washington, D.C., allegedly obtained Trump's tax return information and gave it to a news organization, the court documents said. He has been accused of one count of unauthorized disclosure of tax returns and return information, and if he's convicted, he could face a maximum five years in prison. The government also alleges that Littlejohn took tax return information belonging to thousands of the richest people in the country and disclosed it to a different news organization. Prosecutors said the news organizations — which the person familiar with the matter confirmed were The New York Times and Pro Publica — published "numerous articles" based on the information obtained from Littlejohn, according to the court documents.*** https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-tax-returns-irs-contractor-charles-littlejohn-charged/

Some bad behaviors police themselves
LEESBURG, Va. -- A jury on Thursday found a delivery driver not guilty in the shooting of a YouTube prankster who followed him around a mall food court earlier this year. Alan Colie, 31, was acquitted of aggravated malicious wounding in the shooting of Tanner Cook, 21, who runs the “Classified Goons” YouTube channel. The jury was split though on two lesser firearms counts, and decided to convict him on one and acquit him on the other. The April 2 shooting at the food court in Dulles Town Center, about 45 minutes west of the nation’s capital, set off panic as shoppers fled what they feared to be a mass shooting. Colie pleaded not guilty and said he was acting in self defense.*** Colie, who has been jailed since his April arrest, testified in his own defense about the fear that Cook's prank elicited. [Defense lawyer] Pouilliard said during closing arguments that Colie is aware of the dangers that delivery drivers can face as they interact with the public and that he has a license to carry a concealed weapon. Cook’s “Classified Goons” channel, which has more than 50,000 subscribers, is replete with off-putting stunts, like pretending to vomit on Uber drivers and following unsuspecting customers through department stores. At a preliminary hearing, sheriff’s deputies testified that they were well aware of Cook and have received calls about previous stunts. Cook said he continues to make the videos, from which he earns $2,000 to $3,000 a month. https://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory/jury-decide-fate-delivery-driver-shot-youtube-prankster-103568773

James Montoya, 26, disappeared in early April after leaving a bar with two men the night before he was slated to meet with military recruiters, his mother Carmen Montoya told The Daily Mail. His corpse was discovered in July near Moffat, Colorado during an unrelated search for Edna Quintana, 55, who went missing in the same area in May. Investigators were continuing to look for Quintana last week when they found Morphew’s remains in a shallow grave in Saguache County — roughly 45 miles from her home. ‘They’re calling it The Boneyard because so many people are being located there, and it’s such a secluded area,” Montoya’s mother told the outlet.*** https://nypost.com/2023/09/30/suzanne-morphews-body-was-dumped-in-remote-colorado-area-known-as-the-boneyard/

Couldn't happen to a nicer DA
A former bodega clerk who was infamously charged with murder after fatally stabbing an attacker in his store last year in what he claimed was self-defense is suing lefty Manhattan District Attorney Alvin and the New York City Police Department for racial discrimination. Former clerk Jose Alba, who stabbed ex-con Austin Simon to death during a fight at the Blue Moon bodega in Harlem in July 2022, claims he was hit with second-degree murder charges and endured days under lockup on Rikers Island because of Bragg’s pursuit of “racial equity” in the Manhattan criminal justice system, according to the Manhattan Federal Court suit filed Friday.*** Following the public pressure campaign, on July 19, Bragg finally dropped the charges, admitting there wasn’t enough evidence to prove the worker “was not justified in his use of deadly physical force,” his office wrote in a motion. In addition to Bragg, the suit names Department of Correction Commissioner Louis Molina and other DOC staff, along with the city, as being “responsible for the unconstitutional conditions of confinement and inadequate medical care at Rikers Island.” Alba and his lawyers announced plans to sue in February, but delayed filing the case while attempting to negotiate a pre-lawsuit settlement, which proved unsucessful, said Rich Cardinale, a lawyer for the former bodega worker. *** https://nypost.com/2023/09/30/nyc-bodega-worker-jose-alba-sues-da-alvin-bragg-nypd/

Why did it take so long?
Nearly three decades ago, Tupac Shakur was riding in a BMW driven by Death Row Records boss Marion “Suge” Knight. They passed the MGM Grand Hotel and Caesars Palace on their way to a new Las Vegas nightclub. A white Cadillac pulled alongside the BMW. A gunman opened fire, mortally wounding Shakur. The killing shocked the music world. But the lack of an arrest in the high-profile case gave way to decades of speculation and theories in books, news articles and documentaries about what happened — and why police could not crack the case. Then on Friday, Las Vegas authorities charged Duane “Keffe D” Davis, 60, with murder. Davis has long acknowledged he was in the car that pulled alongside Shakur.*** authorities now say a break came thanks to Davis himself. In his 2019 book, “Compton Street Legend,” Davis detailed those experiences and said he hid the Cadillac and the gun after the shooting and had the vehicle repaired and repainted before returning it to a rental car company. Las Vegas Sheriff Kevin McMahill said at a news conference Friday that although detectives have had plenty of evidence in the case, Davis’ own admissions gave new life to the investigation in the last five years. “We knew at this time that this was likely the last time to take a run at this case to successfully solve this,” McMahill said.*** https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-09-30/la-me-tupac-killing-explainer

DENVER (KDVR) — A man was shot and killed by a Westminster police officer at an apartment complex Sunday night. Neighbors say the shooting followed days of escalation, including several recent police visits to the man’s home. According to the Westminster Police Department, officers were called to the 1400 block of 116th Avenue about a man who was being held down by residents.*** The police department said the man displayed a handgun during the struggle with one of the residents, and after ordering him to drop the weapon several times, an officer fired his gun and hit the man. Police said officers began CPR and other emergency first aid. The man was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead.*** FOX31’s Vicente Arenas talked to a neighbor who said the man who was killed had been yelling racial obscenities, including slurs toward African Americans and Latinos, for several days, and that escalated on Sunday night. Westminster police corroborated this, saying they’d been to the man’s address five separate times since Sept. 29, including one Sunday afternoon with a co-responder to speak with him.

After the man passes by, Carson and his girlfriend stand up and begin walking in the same direction until the suspect starts kicking and knocking over parked scooters on the corner. “The f–k are you looking at?” the suspect was caught on camera barking twice as the stunned couple stops in their tracks. “Imma kill you right now!” Carson, a senior solid waste campaign director at the nonprofit New York Public Interest Research Group, repeatedly pleads with the man to “chill.” But the attacker instead lunges at the 6-foot-4 victim, backing him and his girlfriend up toward the bench they were sitting on seconds earlier, the video shows. The suspect punches Carson before running after the victim, who trips over the bench. The attacker then knifes the victim repeatedly.*** https://www.nydailynews.com/2023/10/03/nypd-release-image-of-wanted-suspect-in-unprovoked-fatal-stabbing-of-brooklyn-social-justice-advocate/

66 arrests?
A man charged in the downtown murder of a prominent Chattanooga businessman has been arrested 66 times, court records show. The most that Darryl Theophilus "Too Tall" Roberts served on any of the cases was a six-month term, the records say. In May, 2010, police said Roberts fired six shots through a bedroom door at an apartment on Hixson Pike. A man was behind the door and four children were in an adjacent bedroom, but no one was hurt. In that case he was charged with two counts of attempted first-degree murder, aggravated burglary, reckless endangerment, possession of a firearm while committing a felony, possession of marijuana for resale and possession of drug paraphernalia.*** Police at the time said Roberts was a convicted felon. His lengthy record included assault, habitual traffic offender, thefts, drug charges and an aggravated robbery in 2000. Apparently the only charges that went forward in the home invasion were the drug counts, and they were dismissed. For a 1997 aggravated assault Roberts got three years suspended with 30 days public work. On a theft charge in 1997 he got 11 months and 29 days suspended. On the 2001 aggravated robbery, the penalty was three years suspended after serving six months. For an aggravated assault in 2000, he got six years suspended. He had a 2017 theft and received four years suspended. Roberts picked up two DUI charges. One was dismissed and the other was 11 months and 29 days suspended. For a 2017 violation of the Motor Offenders Act he got a year suspended.

Take $32B, and people act like it's a big deal
Federal prosecutors on Wednesday opened the criminal trial of Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder of the failed cryptocurrency exchange FTX, with a simple message: He deliberately “lied to the world,” leading to one of the biggest financial frauds of a generation. Mr. Bankman-Fried’s lawyer advanced a far different narrative. The former crypto mogul, the lawyer said, was simply a well-intentioned entrepreneur who acted “in good faith” to make his firm successful, with no intention to defraud anyone. The dueling arguments are at the crux of Mr. Bankman-Fried’s trial, which has become the highest-profile reckoning for a business executive since the Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes was convicted of fraud early last year. A onetime crypto wunderkind, Mr. Bankman-Fried, 31, became a tousle-haired billionaire virtually overnight, only to see his company collapse last year and his fortune evaporate. He has been charged with orchestrating a conspiracy to use $10 billion that FTX’s customers had entrusted to him for all manner of personal projects, including venture capital investments, political donations and luxury real estate purchases.*** https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/04/technology/sam-bankman-fried-ftx-trial.html

❄️June TC Challenge (Day 1 - 30)❄️
1: Do you and your TC have any hobbies or interests in common? If so, do you talk about them together often? B and I like to play games (games on the PlayStation). S likes to play netball. I like playing netball as well so that was cute!
2: Does your TC ever talk about their childhood/teenage years? If yes, what were they like and what sort of childhood did they have? S, kind of. He had a decent childhood which is good! He grew up in a rural town which is interesting. With B, it depends
3: If you could choose one from the following from your TC, what would you choose? An hour alone with them to chat about what you want, a hug, a present, a handwritten note or then complimenting you in front of the class? Oooo, this is hard. From B, definitely a handwritten note. From S, a hug for sure. He seems like the type of person who would give nice hugs
4: Do you think you’ll buy them a leaving gift? If so, what are you thinking of getting them? That means that i will have to ask him for his size though! For S and B, they seem like the people who loves reading so maybe a book
5: When and where did you first meet them? I met S when he first joined the school which was in 2021. He had me for one of his classes. I met B last year when he first joined the school. I also had him for one of his classes
6: What was your first impression of them? I had the same first impression of B and S. I was exited since i didn't have a male teacher until Year 6 and it was exiting that i had male teachers, even though they taught me in different years
7: Do they give out much homework in their classes? What type of homework do they commonly give out? B wasn’t the type of person to really give out work, but when he did, it was to read a book. S gave out some homework and most of it was revision for some mini tests we had
8: Do they talk a lot in their classes or do they do more activities? For S and B, It was mostly activities. Here and there, there would be a class where it was all activities or all talking, but it’s most of the time activities and a bit talking
9: What’s their funniest moment this far? One time last year, S was keeping an eye on students, and he was watching a basketball court. It was lightly raining as well, so that made the court slippery. I was talking to him and then we witnessed a ball got stuck between the hoop and the board. I tried to get it by running and jumping, but i missed. I couldn't stop myself and that resulted in me slipping and falling right on my ass and back in front of him! I laughed it off and he was asking if i was alright! It was so funny! I may bring it up again when i see him, but i'm not sure when
10: What’s their cutest moment so far? This is cute to me but when we were in an assembly, B made sure that I was on the side in case I needed to to have a break from the noice and he watched he like a hawk while standing next to me the whole time. There are so many stories for everyone but it would take forever
11: Have you gone on a field trip with them yet? If so, to where? Yes, it was earlier this year and the whole year level went on an excursion to a sports field near our school to to some things. B came with us which was good! When everyone got to have lunch, I was just sitting on a mini balcony and drawing and B asked if everything was ok and saw that I was drawing Later that year, there was a school event and S and B was there. I had a job to do which was to collect students and get them to their events. S decided to get my attention out of the hundreds of other students because he knew me the best and though I was the most responsible!
12: Have you got any selfies with them? If yes, where were they taken? Not really, sadly. I may get some when I graduate though! Who knows. Hopefully i get one with S soon!
13: Do you usually prefer older people or is your TC an exception? They are an exception
14: Are you and your TC close? Do you talk to them often? S and I are REALLY FUCKING CLOSE! He tells me things that others don’t really know about. B and I are sort of close. We are close enough that we have conversations more than the average student but not at much as S
15: Do they have any pets? B had a cat a while ago. That’s all I’m aware of
16: Is there anything about them you wish you could change? I think the most obvious thing that i would like to change is B's age
17: Is there a particular song that reminds you of them? I have a whole list dedicated to this but I will just put one song from each B: Cool For The Summer - Demi Lovato S: Enchanted - Taylor Swift
18: Do you have dreams about them? If so, what is the best dream you’ve had about them so far? Yes I do! So, I had this dream where I was at some sort of fair thing and I went with S on a date
19: What sort of girlfriend/boyfriend/partner do you think they’ll be? I feel like B would be the protective type. He would be protective but not too protective. S would be a fun/cuddly one! I feel like he would be perfect for date night and stuff
20: What’s their sense of humour like? Can they make you laugh? They make me laugh all the time. S and B are sarcastic 99% of the time which is good!
21: Are they usually your ‘type?’ If not, what attracted you to them? Well, they are the same but different in a way. But the main thing that attracted me to them were their looks and personality
22: Are they more of an introvert or an extrovert? They are both extroverts
23: What is their classroom like? Do they put a lot of pictures up? With S and B, their classrooms were both fun! they both had pictures up from other classes and for our class
24: Has anyone in your life caught on to your crush for them? Hahahahaha, yes. One of my friends knows that I like S. She tries to get me to talk to him when we see him! I nearly told her once that i like B
25: What caused you to realise that you have a crush on them? I started realising that I liked B when we were talking for a bit and I started talking to him more. I was denying it for a hot minute, but then i had to accept that i liked him. For S, my friend was telling me that she had S for the last term of the year when the school was testing him out. We were also seeing what classes he taught on our school page. Ever since I have liked S, it has caused our bond to grow bigger and stronger to the point that he doesn’t tell other students the things he tells me
26: How long have you had a crush on them now? It has been around a year since i started to like them. The best year of my life
27: What is their body type? S is VERY tall and fit. If i had to guess, he is around 6'4" maybe. B is a bit taller than me but shorter than S. He is fit as well
28: Do they have any school events they especially enjoy? How about ones they don’t like? S: The school does an athletics event once a year where the students do a bunch of activities for the day which he likes. B: Anything to do with debating
29: How long have they been teaching for? At my school, B would’ve been teaching for 2 years while S would’ve been teaching for 3 years.
30: Are they younger (20s-30s) or older (40+)? They are both young.
A/N: This challenge was actually really fun to fill out, mainly because it was my first TC challenge! Hopefully i can do a whole years worth of these challenges!

CUET Entrance Exam 2022: Was Difficult or Not?
Introduction
How difficult is the CUCET Entrance Exam 2022? Lots of aspirants worry about it and wonder how they'll pass. If you are one of them, then this article will answer all your questions, whether it's a challenge or not. As a matter of fact, if you are in your final year and planning to apply for CUCET 2021 entrance exam, so do not miss this article for any details about CUCET Entrance Exam 2022. The CUET Entrance Exam was a difficult exam? It was or it wasn't! We all prepared for the CUET entrance exam with a certain level of enthusiasm. The exam was difficult at some point and some students failed to clear it. But if you studied well and studied properly as per my advice, then you will definitely clear it successfully.
CUCET Entrance Exam 2022 Difficulty level
The CUCET 2022 resistance value cannot be predicted because the government will administer it, and it won't be known until after the exam what innovations they'll apply. Yet a candidate might anticipate a reasonable level of complexity for the CUCET in 2022 based on trends from the previous year. It is not anticipated that the level of difficulty of the questions in Part A of the exam will change. Simple quantitative aptitude tests will be administered, but there will also be additional arithmetic questions. A candidate should anticipate 10th-grade-level questions. Students need to review the arithmetic from grade 10 in order to perform better on exams. The English language and Logical Reasoning portions will continue to be simple.
The complexity of the questions on the CUCET entrance exam 2022 will therefore have an impact on the expected cut-offs. Each partnering university will set its own cutoffs based on the availability of seats in each programme. A medium level of difficulty is anticipated for the CUCET entrance exam in 2022. Everything is therefore subject to the rulers' will. A candidate should therefore be well-equipped to handle any unexpected questions that may come up on the exam.
CUCET Entrance Exam 2022 Syllabus
English, numerical aptitude, data interpretation, analytical skills, reasoning, general aptitude, and general knowledge questions make up Part A of the CUET 2022 Exam. Querying the Text Additionally, the pupils' language abilities are evaluated using comprehension (based on a variety of passage types, such as factual, literary, and narrative [literary aptitude vocabulary]). The topic that students select on their CUET 2022 Registration Form will be studied according to the NCERT model curriculum since it is solely relevant to Class XII.
Preparedness advice
Due to the fact that it is a requirement for admission to universities, it is anticipated that the CUCET would take place after the board exams. However, it is crucial to begin the preparations as soon as possible because the board tests will start in the second half of April. Create a calendar that incorporates the CU-CET aptitude test in the following 40 to 45 days before the board exams. Spend 90-120 minutes every day developing your phonological awareness and logical reasoning. Maintain your momentum even when taking the board exams. Making a plan is simple, but sticking to it requires commitment.
Join the best coaching classes for CUET Entrance Exam like StudyByTech. The study from the best.
Conclusion
In order to give students who obtained subpar grades in Class 12 a second chance at success, the CUCET Entrance Exam was introduced in 2022. The importance of students being eligible to take the CUCET Exam was discussed in great depth in the section above. The students find it challenging to prepare since they lack knowledge and expertise. The admission criteria and methods used by the universities may or may not have been impartial and fair. As a result, institutions with high cutoffs have gained importance, while those with low cutoffs have not garnered as much attention. There are many coaching institutes providing CUET coaching classes like StudyByTech. And it's course material is also considered as 1 of the most updated & recommended materials among students to study to clear the exam.

Julia, Public Health PhD Student, UC Berkeley
“I suffer from Madelung’s Deformity, a condition that causes significant chronic pain and limited mobility in my wrists. Since starting my PhD program, I have had two major reconstructive surgeries of both wrists. I am lucky enough to work in a department that is extremely accommodating and understanding of my mobility limitations and access needs. For example, when I was working as a GSI, my department hired an undergraduate student aide to assist me with managing physical aspects of the classroom, such as writing on the board, setting up the projector, and rearranging desks. Unfortunately, a few weeks into the semester, the undergraduate stopped coming to the class. When I notified my supervisor, they shrugged and did not offer a solution.
During midterms, I experienced a major pain flare-up and asked my supervisor for a reduced grading load. The instructor accommodated this request, reducing my grading load by 80%; however, they assigned me additional non-grading tasks to “make it fair” for the other GSIs, which ultimately resulted in me working beyond the 10 hours/week I was paid to work and exacerbated my flare-up even further. To be clear, I do believe my former supervisor and my department are well-intentioned. I am very grateful for the support they have been able to provide despite limited official guidance from the UC around disability access and no required supervisor training on disability. In the summer of 2021, when I expressed that certain aspects of our building made it inaccessible to me, the department quickly secured a grant to fund needed repairs and construction. However, it has now been over 1.5 years and no progress has been made, and I continue to avoid coming to campus as much as possible to prevent debilitating pain flare-ups.
My student evaluations at the end of the semester were below my department’s average. One of the most common criticisms I received was that I didn’t write on the board enough and that writing out the equations on the board would have been more helpful for their learning than glossing over equations in a PowerPoint. I totally understand this criticism, and it makes me feel even sorrier that my student aide stopped showing to class and that there was no accountability/policy in place for securing a new one to help my students learn better. The consequence of this was not only debilitating pain flare ups that slowed down my own research/degree progress (which is already delayed due to needing major surgeries), but also restricting my opportunities to be hired as a GSI going forward due to poor student evals that will stay in my record forever. “Explaining away” negative student evals in future interviews is not easy when it involves having to disclose your disability, which can be grounds for experiencing further discrimination.
I believe it should not be up to individual departments to implement access needs policies or come up with the funding to make campus buildings ADA-compliant. Further, supervisor training around disability access and central funding for access needs from the UC would have mitigated all three of these harmful situations. I am deeply disappointed by the removal of the Access Needs and Public Health articles from the UC-UAW bargaining table, as these would have prevented me from experiencing significant harm in the future.”
