Somebody needs to think about this stuff...

Studying – International business law

by

This month I am studying “International business law” and “Tang-Soo Do karate”

Both at part-time, in-person classes. 3rd month of law (of a 6 month course) and 6th month of karate

Studying – International business law

by

This month I am studying “International business law”

Still have no interest in pursuing a career in law (I’m certainly not smart enough for that), but I do think an understanding of the law is relevant if I want to own and run my own business.

This is the second month of my part-time international business law class and my 5th month of karate.

Update: I logged 27 hours this month bring my total time up to 60 hours of study.

 

Get it done

by

It doesn’t take much to get hired around here.

You need to be smart.

And you need to get shit done.

Which makes me wonder how I got a job here.

Oh wait, I own the company.

 

Blaming the wrong thing

by

Don’t blame the student for cheating on your exam.

Blame yourself for demanding and valuing good grades from your students rather than demanding and valuing good learning from them instead.

P.S. I wasn’t talking about me. 🙂

Intentional Failure

by

I’m not afraid of a computer program that can successfully pass the Turing Test.

I’m afraid of the computer program that will intentionally fail it.

This month I am studying “International business law”

If I am going to run companies, and the UK is entering the EU, I should probably understand better how business law works, and especially international business law. I am not stopping my karate classes, those are entering the fourth month and I fully intend to continue my studies.

So this is a six month part-time course, 3 hours a day, twice a week.

Update: I logged 33 hours in studies, reading and homework this month.

Misbegot maven

by

Got mocked by my girlfriend for mispronouncing Sartre’s name.

I’ve only ever seen it written down, never heard it aloud and mocked for “do you even know who he is?”

At least I’ve read an actual fucking book by the bloody author.
