I get all my bridge information from Andrew Tate and Alex Jones.

There is a saying in engineering.

Anyone can build a bridge.

It takes an engineer who can build a bridge just strong enough to let cars cross it.

"I just don't see how the whole bridge falls over that fast"

Bruh it is a ten million ton cargo ship bumping into it, do u think it's just gonna bounce off?

I mean, all it takes is a look at the cost of shit like tuition and text books to conclude college is a scam, but that doesn't equal a disrespect for the knowledge of people who've gone through it.

All I know about bridges is how to sell them, and I have one right now I can guarantee was built by an entirely white construction team. I examined their skull shapes myself. I'll just need about $80 million, and it's all yours, Elon.

What the hell are people debating here? A 150.000 tonne object crashed into a structure made of thin sticks (comparatively speaking). There is no doubt that the bridge would collapse. Especially since an arch is only stable if it is undamaged.

I mean, colleges are fucking expensive and their biggest appeal is a promise of a high paying job. Even public ones still eat up your soul and you may not necessarily be ready for "the job market" after graduation, or even academic life. Wholly different discussion.

Still, no way in hell I'll doubt that a bajillion ton (tonnes, whatever) of inertia can bring down a bridge. That's effectively an asteroid boulder slowly rolling down hill

Same dunce heads who argued against vaccines

I don't think Knowledge is a scam, but I firmly believe that the current College system(at least in the US) is a scam or at the very least super predatory, it's one of the only types of debt that you can't bankrupt on, and if you try to go for anything more than a bachelor's you're likely not going to be able to pay off the loan due to interest accumulation.

What is there to argue? Like there's video evidence of it happening

I have had more PhDs recommend against college than for it. I'm not joking. It's scary.

They'll tell you that if you can get by without a degree, by all means do or at least heavily consider it.

Education is undoubtedly important, as often evidenced by people's lack of it. But even those who ran the gauntlet decades ago have lost faith in the system.

And now we have a whole new litany of problems on their way because of the rising prominence of GenAI and I can confidently say that academia is wholly unprepared for the shit storm coming it's way.

I have no formal training in building bridges. I actually only learned what a bridge was yesterday. Anyway, here's what I think happened and I will fight anyone who tells me different.

Just use HostNetwork, why would you use a bridge

Hell, 3 hours in polybridge would probably give the common sense to realize that supports do in fact, hold the bridge up

College isn't a scam per se, but the for-profit system as it exists now totally is. So is the myth that everyone needs a college degree - an increasing number of jobs are removing that requirement because it's bullshit and actually limits the recruiting pool for a lot of jobs. It also encourages hiring management with degrees but no experience over internally promoting experienced workers without degrees. Ever had a new manager come in, change everything until it all sucks, then get a promotion or new job a year or two later? A lot of college degrees are mostly just a license to fail upwards.

I went to college for a stem degree... IDK if it's a scam, but I'm extremely far from happy with the value proposition. And my school was relatively affordable.

Of course, that's not a problem with colleges but with policy, imo

It can be a scam, especially if your not gonna use your degree.
