You realize there are schools for lots of different things?

I think the moral of your story is to avoid college altogether and to just enter the field at the lowest level and work your way up. Because no one cares about degrees anymore (and they shouldn’t). Or at least make sure your degree is valuable. The problem is my generation was pressured “go to college” and not really anything more than that, so people came out of that with a bunch of useless degrees.

I have a family member that graduated valedictorian from college and still can’t get a job.

So while I resonate with your point, this woman is simply further cheapening the value of the degree from the institution she is attending. And asking the question she did is just incredibly ignorant.

Yeah I’ve worked with those people and they are terrible at their jobs.

“Why wouldn’t you do that?” Williams asked

Gee, I dunno, maybe you wanted to learn something?

It was never solved…

I think you may have overlooked the part about “first party interface”.

Because you can hand someone else proof of purchase. The only way to truly prevent scalping is by verifying the purchaser’s identity, to ensure they cannot transfer it to anyone else. At least not without selling it through the distributor’s own channels where they will then collect a fee for the privilege of providing the proprietary platform to facilitate such transactions.

I’ll take the scalping, thanks.

Okay now get rid of the in-video ads and AI slop and I might consider actually using a first-party interface again.

Maybe they didn’t like that it was then given to people for free

Yeah, I mean, it’s mostly that.
