My school (and other schools in my district as well as many other urban districts) is having a problem with fights taking place after school. The fights often involve adults fighting students as well as other adults. The city police do not make arrests for this kind of thing because..

the reason social democracy (and any half measure socialism) can’t succeed is because capitalists aren’t prepared to share anything. They are literally the zombie horde. Either you get rid of them completely or you have to let them take everything

Me, drunk, educating protestant wife after asking, "Which Saint is best for killing the devil." She said, "Saint George," I'm like, "No that's anti dragon. It's Michael!" "he's literally the first one. If saints were Pokemon, he'd be Bulbasaur!" She's like: "what if there was Saint George Michael?"

My job is a lot sometimes but when students make progress and get visibly overjoyed when they realize what they've just created- there's nothing like it. This kid was working on an essay and I kept giving them feedback comments and having them fix stuff for like two days- then on the last day..

Oof. Tough day at my public school. 29 students transferred in without warning all at once. Didn't have enough desks for everyone- behavior issues. Coming home feeling kind of bleak, which is unusual for me

Every now and then I see myself referred to as an "AI Denier" and I want to be clear I acknowledge "AI" exists, it's just I think it's a massive energy drain, created from theft, implemented poorly for inappropriate tasks by loathsome tech executives who get hard at the idea of the rest of us dying

people are always saying anti-AI arguments don’t understand the full nuances of the technology. which is correct. but only because it stole everyone’s work, exists solely to get you fired, has made the entire internet unusable and has been forced on everyone without consent

It's week 4 of high school.. So far my computer science students have learned: basic CS terminology(algorithm, decomposition, data types, etc), decision trees, Boolean logic operators and how to use them, binary conversions, and binary addition. I'm pretty proud of them!

Purrfect poster for International Cat Day! A message from the United Upright Cats International (UUCI).
A cat poster in the style of a 1930s soviet propaganda poster. The poster is black and white except for a large, red flag held up by a black cat. It reads "Many Furs - One Working Class." Below the black cat, in a row looking forward, are four other cats of various types and fur colours with arms forward and claws out in an aggressive stance. Behind them is a statue of two cats holding up a star. The text below the image reads "United against capitalist domination and fascist barbarity we can make a world belonging to all." Small print at bottom reads "Third Socialist Cat Congress" and "United Upright Cats International (UUCI)". Nathan Nun 2019

My ambition to have my computer science high school students assemble PCs is being dampened a little by the fact that I cannot pass around a stapler for them to staple their papers without the stapler getting jammed multiple times by different students. I had to teach how to use a stapler.

I have deep theories about Bram Stoker's Dracula being a novel of letters and how at the beginning Jonathan is just writing in his journal(and Dracula is at his most powerful and his most unknown) but by the end of the novel Mina is writing on a typewriter and the guys have repeating rifles..

Me hammering and hammering and hammering on "AI" is not a black box, it's just bad code that the coders pushed to production even though they lack the skills to audit it. Likewise that "AI" is not spooky, it's as deterministic as any other computer program and will always produce the same outputs

START DOING COMPUTER SCIENCE

* VARIABLES WERE SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN NAMES
* YEARS OF PROGRAMMING yet STILL MORE TO CREATE
* Don't want to write code anyway? We have a field for you: It's called THEORY
* "Well typed programs don't go wrong." "Boolean satisfiability is NP-complete." "Every effectively calculable function is computable." — Statements dreamed up by the utterly inspired

LOOK at what computer scientists deserve your Respect for all this time, with all the circuits and computers we built for them

I taught my first bilingual Spanish/English computer science class yesterday. I didn't know at the beginning of the year that I would have so many level 1 English learner students, but I have enough that I am choosing to run every slide through translate and make quizzes and worksheets in Spanish.

I would never take a highway to the danger zone. they would see you coming. you have to take the back roads to the danger zone. you have to park about a mile off in a fairly public parking lot and reverse your jacket halfway through the walk to get to the danger zone. it's fucking dangerous there.
