I’m not, but I should probably look around for courses. So far I’m just self-studying, for about 90 mins a day.

There's also something about the way French handles plurals that seems more similar to te reo than to French in my mind.
I think it's that both languages mark the plural on the possessive and not just the noun as in English. In Mãori it's more like "mys shoe" but in french it would be "mys shoes".

An obvious example is that te reo has the a/o category system, which splits nouns into classes similarly to gender.
Another example is that te reo has a kind of verb-adverb agreement such that if you passivise one you have to do the same to the other, and there are many similar things in French.

Foil would probably be sufficient. Like a faraday cage. The point is to block the phone from sending or receiving any kinds of signals.

C Thi Nguyen has a paper called "Transparency is Surveillance" which is about how forcing expert decisions to be made in an explainable, transparent way can have worse results.
Sometimes vibes are just expertise in a trenchcoat. Other times it can be unconscious bias, but there is no free lunch.

(Often, but of course not always). We have steered students away from other professors but it’s all word of mouth.
My supervisors are both high powered academics and excellent supervisors. They both take supervising their students very seriously and have a similar mentorship philosophy.

Totally, it's the opposite. The money was there so it would make more money. Now it's going to cover for $2.9 billion dollars in budget deficits that they created by giving tax breaks to landlords and tax cuts to the wealthy.

Imagine one of the kindest humans who ever lived, who had love and compassion in her heart for all of God’s creations alike being asked for her last words and her choice was to point right at you like “I don’t like that guy”
