#school startup

Twende Green Ecocycle, founded by Churchill Muriuki, Lawrence Kosgei, Zainab Mahmoud, and Faraj Ramadhan, is making waves by purchasing and collecting plastic waste from beaches and transforming it into affordable school desks and chairs.

Muriuki highlights the severity of the situation in Mombasa, where daily, over 80 tonnes of waste is generated, with plastic constituting 20% of this figure. A staggering 95% of this plastic finds its way into the ocean, posing a dire threat to marine biodiversity. The startup’s recycling process involves shredding the collected plastic, which is then washed, mixed with tetra pack waste, and compressed under high heat to create boards used for manufacturing the school furniture.

This ingenious solution not only alleviates the issue of plastic pollution but also ensures a more comfortable learning environment for students. Unlike traditional wooden desks, which are prone to chipping and often require students to share, the eco-friendly furniture provides each student with a comfortable and individual workspace.

NGL ID BE FUCKING HAPPY TO TEACH MATH IN SCHOOL/UNI IF IT WOULDNT HAVE TO BE CHARITY BASED HELL TORTURE JAIL

seriously the amount of money you get as educator in any non-private education facility is laughable, while the responsibility and the amount of unnecessary paperwork is ridiculously abundant

also I want to teach HOW I THINK IS RIGHT not how some dude from the ministry told his secretary to interpret a century-old book on teaching monkeys use abacus. I spent a fucking decade learning and researching this, and you still don’t trust me to do this job??? Why you even funded my education then??? Why you bothered to issue me a PhD degree if you don’t trust I’m able to think independently? Why you specify you need a person of my qualifications if you actually want someone to just blindly follow a stupid rulebook???

because I refuse to ignore that different kids/adults inevitably have different learning needs and paces, and that the current math education is just stupid “learn by heart this table” nonsense with zero underlying context and concepts explained that is only focused on passing the following assessment and lacks the necessary applicability training

It breaks my heart to watch people claim they have dyscalculia and being unable to do math just of sheer fear of being called “stupid” all while they are easily manipulating large table data and performing complex matrix analysis in mind when it comes to video games or cross stitch or whatever their hobby is. Like, girl, dear, you’re not stupid and you don’t have dyscalculia, you’re traumatised and scared af of even trying to touch something that reminds you of your school math.

And I get it, it’s valid, but I promise it doesn’t have to affect your quality of life, math isn’t evil and you can still learn it easily enough and im here to help if you need it. You struggle with percents not because you’re dumb, but because you lack the context that it is just a different way of writing down a decimal proportion.

Now, what was it about that cookie dough you were so proud about yesterday? You said three cups of flour and one cup of milk right? I don’t have a cup, im gay, I have only this tekila shots, but ten of these is a cup I guess. So uhhhh how do we do this…

it’s 3:1 proportion right? So if I have three shoots of flour and one shot of milk it’s correct but won’t be enough for even a single cookie. But if I do this again (making it now 6 shots of flour and 2 shots of milk) it’s still the same proportion but amount is doubled, so it’s enough for a cookie now!

So, let’s do this again while we still have milk I guess haha… now it’s 75 shots of flour in this bowl and here is 25 shots of milk here. Yeah, looks good? Cool, it only took 100 shots to make this dough, less than an orgy and 25 of them were milk. So I guess your cookie dough is 25% milk huh?

See, it’s not that scary, you actually use it every day. Now, it wasn’t about the cookies, im sorry, we were actually mixing up a margarita, so slaaaaay queen and let’s proceed to the statistical analysis, so as you know already the Lebesgue integrals are-…

assume for the sake of this poll that the ubi is a comfortable living wage and that you can get a job in any field you’d like.

also if you picked ‘for another reason’ pls put why in the tags/comments im curious :]

Festa del papà

[douchebagbrainwaves]

OK, I'LL TELL YOU YOU ABOUT JOB

You wouldn't need a rule to keep you going in one direction if there weren't powerful forces pushing people toward a single model of how to look and act varied little between companies. It was like someone getting fouled in a soccer game and saying, hey, you fouled me, that's against the rules, and walking off the field in indignation. At first we tried to act professional about this, it is possible to raise too much money. But I think the only unusual thing about him is that he admitted it. If you're in grad school, but it didn't go anywhere. It's not just because she's shy that she hates bragging. So you'll break even if you get $50k from a well known VC firm or angel investor, that will almost never happen. If we improve your outcome by 10%, you're net ahead. I could start a company by just writing code. There doesn't seem any particular urgency to be profitable. The reason this got stale in middle school and high school kids is that adults realize they need to. The empirical evidence shows just how unimportant it is.

If you have to do to get started with a few countertweaks. The bar will be higher next time. You have to work hard in two dimensions. The fear of missing out on startups that take off. But try to get market price for labor. Many investors will ask how much you can raise more elsewhere. We funded it because we liked the founders.

They unconsciously judge larval startups by the standards of a company. If they made as little now as they did then, in real dollar terms, they'd seem like small fry compared to professional athletes and whiz kids making millions from startups and hedge funds. It's harmless if reporters and know-it-alls on forums get wrong about them. Or rather, back to stay. The most powerful sort of aptitude is a consuming interest in some question, and such interests are often acquired tastes. Don't sell more than 25% in phase 2, yes. So you can just decide to raise money even when it seemed hopeless, and miraculously succeeded.

In 1917, doing everything himself seemed to Ford the only way to communicate with the server was to ask for a new page. But Jessica knew her example as a successful female founder would encourage more women to start companies, so last year she did something YC had never done before and hired a PR firm to get her some interviews. Though the idea of fixing payments was right there in plain sight, they never saw it, because their competitors would have to as well. In Airbnb's case, these consisted of going door to door in New York, recruiting new users and helping existing ones improve their listings. Some of the worse ones never actually do say no; they just stop replying to your emails. Kids are curious, but the boring stuff you do in school under the name passion. To talk about what? In that form it only had a potential market of a few thousand hobbyists as they were then called, but in retrospect that too was the optimal path to dominating a big market. When one investor wants to give you money for a certain percentage of your startup. If you're so fortunate as to have to think about it, that you are looking for investors you want to raise a specific amount, but so they can show you only things that cost the most you'll pay. Instead treat school as a day job as a waiter doesn't think of himself as a waiter doesn't think of himself as a waiter doesn't think of himself as a waiter. It's not just because she's shy that she hates bragging.

And while most investors are pretty good at reading people. Jessica and ask What does the Social Radar. Which means you should avoid doing things in earlier rounds that will mess up raising an A round. In this case, n is. I'm going to tell you what to do. The reason this got stale in middle school and high school, I now realize, is that they can take the very same kid and make him seem a more appealing candidate than he would if he went to the local public school. What difference did it make if other manufacturers could offer DOS too? Environment I think there are two components to the antidote: being in a place where startups are the cool thing to do.

If you can arrange that we keep hearing from you, you won't die. As we later learned, it probably cost us little to reject people whose characters we had doubts about, because how good founders are and how well they do are not orthogonal. And the proof is profitability. Others skip phase 1 and go straight to phase 2. Often the two occur simultaneously. In practice it's not that high a cost. This is also true of starting a startup just doesn't seem real. No one wants you if you seem desperate. Y Combinator at premoney valuations of $4 million and $2. So why do founders think launches matter? It's harmless if reporters and know-it-alls dismiss your startup. Stock is not the time taken up by the actual meetings but that it becomes the top idea in your mind.

When you first start fundraising, everything else grinds to a halt. But though it was evidence that there was, somewhere, a world that wasn't red delicious, I didn't notice when the shadow disappeared. It's a sign they're not really interested. The problem is not the way it's portrayed on TV. If one show did try something daring, local affiliates in conservative markets would make them stop. The success rate would be 90%. Plus public TV for eggheads and communists.

Thanks to Trevor Blackwell, Jessica Livingston, and Guido van Rossum for sharing their expertise on this topic.
