Interesting. I've been working on the same problem (you need stuff at a kid's level, but not aimed at kids, if you are interested in the content then it will be easier to learn): https://tailoredreaders.com/samples
I think I like your solution better than mine, which is basically generating children's books from user prompts.
When you say you generate stories from the films, are you summarising / simplifying the narrative of scenes in the film (to down level the language), or creating something new, just with the vocabulary the film uses?
I know complaining about the site is poor form, but it is really hard to take advice seriously for a site that lets other visitors spam... just general internet things to other visitors.
Cute idea, but it is pretty clear the author doesn't consider practical consequences, so why should I trust their judgement about Tailwind?
Former foodservice worker (in the US) for several years here. Servers do not spit in customers' food; that would be psychopathic behavior that no manager would tolerate and grounds for immediate termination, and the type of person who would actually do that is the type of antisocial person who is going to struggle in any job. If a known bad tipper ends up in a server's section, she'll roll her eyes in private, perhaps grumble to her co-workers, then go put on the customer service smile and serve them as normal.
That said, please tip. Note that (where legal) servers are generally paid below minimum wage because it's expected their income will be supplemented with tips. Consider the tip not a bribe but as a payment for a service you were provided which, at least in the current cultural climate, is not being tacked on to the actual bill; you may not like that and want that cultural norm to change, but it hasn't changed yet and is unlikely to in the near future. If tipping really offends you, then order pick-up instead of dining in, or just cook at home.
Ha, fair, actually did think about making /bribes redirect straight to /support, missed opportunity not shipping it(had second thoughts). And yeah, that line's staying non-negotiable, sorry to disappoint. xD
Yeah, seems to be the direction the US is heading in. I'm interested to see what the response to that will be from the rest of the governments in the world.
No need for everyone else to cut their noses of to spite their faces.
Yup, well there's your problem.
