该酒店可能违反了联邦贸易委员会已经生效大约一年的规定。

> good luck navigating through life without knowing how to read

Literacy isn't usually evaluated as a binary thing.

Here's how one organization ranks reading levels:

I think the optimists in the article once believed proficiency was inevitable but maybe basic is the best they should hope for now.

I think the point is that the design of the SAT influences what is taught in schools.

If the SAT stops testing the ability to deal with multi-paragraph text, then schools will spend less time teaching those skills.

Part of that might be your book choice.

I found that when trying to rekindle my reading habit, book choice had a big effect. Some books are like vegetables you know you should eat but really don't want to and other books are junk food. Empty calories that you love.

Pick from the latter pile at first and rebuild the muscle.

It would probably be quicker to type it in than figure out how to OCR it. It would be like typing in a game from a COMPUTE! magazine 45 years go.

While Germany and some other Western countries were going along with the IMF and their austerity policies, Japan just kept printing money. Where would you rather live today? (I've been to Japan (Tokyo) but never Germany, so I have no opinion)

It's going to be interesting to see the long term consequences of the choices different nations made along the way.

Thinking about some of the business practices of our ancestors, shipping bits of plastic seems like a great improvement.

Our great-great-grandchildren will probably be getting their gadgets via some kind of Star Trek replicator rather than a container ships and no doubt some moral hazard will be involved in that practice.

Generally though, things are getting better, no?

If they drop support of Firefox, does that mean they would actively block Firefox?

I would guess the person you are responding to is thinking about more mundane books that are or have been banned in public and private schools in recent history. Harry Potter, for example.

Wouldn't something like a book of child pornography be banned in the EU?
