This just makes stuff up to force an answer. "The whole thing is about optimized data storage", you have no idea if this is true. "Because 1875 makes a lot of sense for social security" - because of your completely arbitrary 5 years of "wiggle room" to make the story fit?

Anecdote for your first point: My first job out of school was as a firmware engineer, basically writing an embedded operating system from scratch. I was also in charge of packaging, shipping, customs, and customer service - because I was the new guy and someone had to do it.

I'm pretty sure the original question is a massive flamebait troll, so I don't think it makes sense to discuss the motives and reasonableness of the "people" involved. It's still an interesting hypothetical though.

@Eletie Yeah, I'm not really in academia so I wouldn't know how to compare, but it sound like it forces you to accept a position (so you can't sign the same type of documents with other universities) but they don't have to follow through with anything - exactly what happened.

A "contract that stated I would accept the position" sounds suspiciously unilateral.

A very minor gripe: Starting the answer with "It is easy to change voltage" when OP asks if the socket can change the frequency could make the confused inference that a socket can change the voltage but not the frequency.

@JimmyJames That's exactly what I wrote. "contains eggs", not "may contain". I wonder if there's a language issue here because so many people don't see the difference between may contain and contains. Maybe it's a new "literally now means figuratively".

@CodyGray Every single example I find from your search shows that it "contains peanuts", not that it "may contain peanuts". I get the feeling that this question asks about something that OP made up, not something that exists.

Nothing in the quotes says they think it came from a lab in America, I think you are misreading the claims. It's still the same claim about a Wuhan lab. What is American is the technology and some of the research, but that is not new information or even something anyone tried to hide.

@DevSolar On the contrary, I have no idea who these people are, if they are left or right or if that even makes sense in Australia, nor do I care about the education system in a country on the other side of the planet. I just see what would have been a good and short fact-check spin out of control into a three page defense of an accusation that was never made.
pipe
Jun 14, 2022 08:12
@pinegulf I can't even locate the answer to your questions here: "is the description accurate" and "is it part of Victoria, Australian curriculum". The middle section possibly answers the second question, but two paragraphs would have sufficed. The rest of this answer is just hypothetical "It seems" and "It's plausible", or otherwise simply opinions - essentially the opposite of what a good answer on this website is supposed to look like.

@pinegulf It sounds like you want someone to validate your opinion then, not a fact-check of the statements.

Jun 14, 2022 08:12
I had to wade through a lot of personal opinion in this answer to get to the actual answer: "Yes, this is true.". The rest seems to be you defending that choice.

@jwodder Since the amendment is so brief, it makes sense to look at the context. If private citizens owned cannons during the time period that the document was drafted, it would probably be mentioned if the idea was to exclude them.

@Oddthinking Of course. Every claim from a history book would fit. That's kinda my point here. My closest book says "Dennis Ritchie designed the C language at Bell Laboratories in the early 1970s" without further information. Did he really? I'm skeptical of this claim.

This website would be drowned and obsoleted if everyone with a history question would post here. Aren't historians more apt to dig up (pardon the pun) the original sources behind this claim, and explain how it could have happened?

@uhoh It is of course a ridiculous notion that we are to add the standard stack exchange license to every question. Verbatim copying is never allowed unless a license explicitly allowed (default international copyright laws), and copying ideas from an answer does not require following the copyright license. The extra sentence is thus simply an underhanded an unenforceable threat to other contestants, and just noise to everyone else.
