@drumm_colin ? it says "It is concluded that the seduction theory had never been based on the patients' direct statements and conscious recall of seduction by the father in early childhood -- unlike what Freud was to state much later (1933)."

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@pippercorn @guywhoiswoke yes, that is the correct answer. lots of people revealing they have 0 theory of mind

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@BrandyLJensen so you're a sadist or what?

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@NonwayneWayne isn't the point of the bell-tolling line that when the bell tolls for the humanities, its actually tolling for everyone?

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@drumm_colin it's basically the most important essay by a psychoanalyst on this topic

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@janecoaston @wil_da_beast630 but what you support seems to be "treat antisocial youth the way we historically treat antisocial youth", and so everyone is confused as to why you are asking "and then what?" if you agree with "and then let what happens by default in these situations happen"

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@janecoaston @wil_da_beast630 "what happens to that kid, because he wasn't going to stop."

? i don't understand how the answer to this is not "scroll up, we literally just discussed that." this is giving "but why male models?"

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@janecoaston one reason this is confusing is because you don't specify whether "and then what?" means 1) "and then where do they spend their days if not in school?" or 2) "and then what life paths are available to them?" and seem to equivocate btw the two

@bar_dictum @nxd1979 all these different hiring managers within a large company are spontaneously & voluntarily aligning on minimum years of experience for an executive director vs a senior director of XYZ for those with BAs and for those with advanced degrees?

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@nxd1979 i think we might be using "hiring decisions" differently. you are saying in your field each hiring manager is allowed to determine anew for each hire what level of experience is required to hire someone at a given title, and that this is the norm for all fields?

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@janecoaston Could you explain why you think this is an interesting question? Because it seems like the obvious answer is: people who are expelled from school for anti-social behavior will likely go on to lead anti-social lives. But that's not an argument for not punishing anti-social behav!

@chorizanthe how would you explain the existence of things like the gaokao?

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@yuhline i think there is a fundamentally flawed premise here, which is that wanting to know "basics" is proof that you skipped over something. but the alternative is: only people who have very high fluency in something want & are able to go back and understand the "basics"

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@EdrowScape @CoreyLeander @NathanJRobinson i would be very curious to hear you explain what point you thought he was making that you thought you were then countering here.

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@elladorn_ 3) you say that "it would solve so many problems" but really the only "problem" it would solve is that all affable but not bright kids from mediocre and bad schools would have to know & show how far behind they are.

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@elladorn_ 2) is that this would result in *massive* grade deflation at lower-class schools in particular, and its unclear why those parents, teachers, or students would support a change that would mark them as less competent than peers elsewhere.

[Jake Fraser @JakeFraser33212]

@elladorn_ i am not 100% sure if you're being serious, but are you talking about standardized grades for courses or implementing standardized national exams like GCSEs?
