@LukeelkinsTV @arrivaessex There's nothing unusual about that! This app is not only useless, it's actually worse than useless - it would be better if it didn't work at all, rather than telling you things that are simply not true.

Your app is a lie told me the bus two mins away never showed up @arrivaessex !!!! 12:04 302 towards Hemel town from Adey Vaxhall Rd

@Brightonian_ Quite the most amusing aspect was when Raya needed to make a diving save. Naturally the poor lamb immediately needed a full medical assessment, stopping just short of an MRI scan. Clearly the pain was so severe that he quite forgot which arm he was supposed to have damaged.

Another spot on quote from FH, but disagree on this one Fabian.
I’ve seen Bournemouth, Fulham, probably others I’m forgetting, come to the Amex doing the same.

Hurzeler asked about time-wasting "I ask one question - do you ever see in a Premier League game the goalkeeper going down three times. "We shouldn't concentrate on these things... let's talk about us. "The Premier League needs to look at rules."

@Brightonian_ Sorry about this, but it's time to mute you again. I don't disagree with a word you say, but I can't stand another minute from the idiots you respond to.

I really don’t buy the idea that Bloom ‘doesn’t care’
That’s BS.
I know we have some newer fans, but surely most of us all recognise Bloom is a genuine die-hard #BHAFC fan. He goes to every game, has done all through the leagues.
Aside from being an elite entrepreneur, more than anything he’s a bloke who knows his football. Probably more than most on here I’d bet.
You really don’t think he’s hurting at the latest results?
I couldn’t disagree with you more. He bleeds blue and white, he’s a real fan. He surely cares as much as any of us.
I’d go one further.
Given he’s put in 400 odd million of his own money, oversees operations, sets the vision, and the hiring of key personnel, I reckon he probably feels more invested than anyone.
Have opinion and criticism on some of his decisions… I have a few myself, but there’s no question whatsoever that he cares.

@DavidTymm @mathillustrated @pwharris But I found many of these feel guilty because they don't / can't use the "right" method. They feel they're cheating even though their methods are based on insight and understanding.
English
@mathillustrated This is also shows @pwharris realization that those who find maths easy, often don't do it the way they're taught, but quietly do it with simpler reasoning.

@kmcubine @organicallyman @Beanie0597 Here’s from the 1930’s. this is “traditional math”. I do not smoke. 😉 The basics are that children learn how to think about place value. The carrying method is a shortcut they learn later.

@dylanwiliam @Kris_Boulton "Oblong" would be my nomination for the most underused name in maths teaching.
English
@Kris_Boulton I got that several times as a young teacher. Then I realized that I should also have the triangles oriented differently, because if you don't, students conflate shape and orientation (I remember one student saying to me that, when rotated by 90°, a rectangle became an oblong)
English
Love, love, love this 😅
Even if it’s apocryphal, it’ll be true somewhere. Perfectly logically consistent with the instructional presentation.
Learner responses are always consistent with what we present.
Zach Groshell@MrZachG
A teacher recently told me a good one: she wrote right triangles on the board like this 📐for weeks - until one day she randomly wrote one facing the other way and said, “what kind of triangle is this?” and a kid said, “a left triangle?”
English
@dylanwiliam @benlandautaylor I was lucky. By the end of September my first boss sat me down and drummed it into me. When he subsequently came to give me a reference he said "He makes mistakes, but he doesn't make the same one twice", and I was happy enough with that.

@benlandautaylor Hardest thing any teacher learns: "Your students are not like you."

The worst physics professor I ever learned from was the best physicist at my school. An incredibly kind man, brilliant, patient, and always encouraging, but he just could not imagine the thought process of a person who was not already an expert physicist.
English
@pickover On balance I go for -12, since if one uses the same convention for the meanings of sqrt(-16) and sqrt(-9) then that's what one gets. We can't use the rule sqrt(ab)=sqrt(a)sqrt(b), which would yield 12, since no convention will satisfy that.

When do you think that APP grids will be back in fashion?
English
@Brightonian_ And every single one has more experience and tactical knowledge, not to mention access to personal physical and medical data, than the entire coaching staff put together.

It’s almost impressive how some see the negative in every single decision made by the club.
Just endlessly moaning.
English
@Brightonian_ Mateta has form. He became poster boy for Mainz but after a couple of seasons decided he was too good for them and sulked until he got his move to the glamour of Selhurst. And all credit to Palace for sticking with him when he was by no means an instant success.
English
They can’t get out quick enough.

@Brightonian_ @DougieCritchley As I recall, there's a rumour that his deal gives him a slice of all transfer fees.
English
@DougieCritchley Reckon clubs have tried.
Think it was reported he turned down Norwich some years ago.
English
I won’t pretend I watch Bodø/Glimt on a weekly basis…
But I am surprised a Premier League club hasn’t swooped for their manager! ⤵️
Dougie Critchley@DougieCritchley
Spurs fans rejoicing at the fact they’ve got Bodø/Glimt… Bear in mind they’ve beaten Celtic, Besiktas, FC Porto, Roma and Lazio in recent seasons, have pushed Man United hard and scored 27 goals in 14 Europa League games in 24/25. Know their manager Kjetil Knutson was linked with Brighton pre and post De Zerbi. Would be surprised if he didn’t end up in the Premier League in the next 2 years playing his brand of football which has been described as “kamikaze!”
English
@Headteacherchat Depends on you, your experience and what the school are looking for and need. I was an Assistant Headteacher after less than 5 years. Advice given to me was: “let THEM decide if you’re not experienced enough.”
English
Anon post:I aspire to become an Assistant Head, with the potential to progress to Deputy Head in the future. My goal is to step into an Assistant Head role this year, but I wonder if it's too soon. I have seven years of teaching experience. Would this be the right time to take the next step?

@dylanwiliam @tomloveless99 Now how have I reached 84 without ever once hearing this quote?
English
@tomloveless99 I have to say I see both sides of this debate, and there's little research evidence either way. That said, I do like what Gaspard Monge—the father of differential geometry—said about this: "Anyone who has done two long divisions in his life has done one too many".
English
I totally disagree. Long division teaches place value, all four operations (+, -, X, and div), and the relationship of fractions with division. It's essential.
alz@alz_zyd_
long division should not be taught in elementary schools. Long division is useless in practice, and is an opaque algorithm whose correctness is impossible to verify by children, and thus teaches nothing about mathematical principles
English
@FPL_Instinctive That's just about the most sensible comment I've seen so far.
English
I like Rosenior and think he’s a good coach. I don’t expect much to come out of a stint at Chelsea (relative to the expectations of a Chelsea manager), given the [work] constraints he’ll undoubtedly face, but I’ll be more than happy to have him at Brighton someday.
English
Thinking Rosenior can’t command respect because of one video, yet believing Maresca could because of success with City’s U21 side, even whilst he publicly sold his players down the river, is… interesting.
