This is slightly out of my normal lane, and I could charge six (hell maybe seven) figure to deliver this message as a consultant, but I’m gonna do it for free. Because I’m ✨enraged✨ People in the think tank/policy/inside the beltway DC world have ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE how mad people are abt Cornell. 🧵

Yes! An unexpected email like “I saw this and it reminded me of your class!” will legitimately power me through the rest of the week.

Deluded is spot on. In my experience, drivers will never acknowledge the dissonance of saying “bikers never follow the law!” with their willingness to break the law (close pass) while shouting at me to do something illegal (ride on the sidewalk).

At this point, two months of Henderson looks better than two months of Skubal, but Logan’s got five *years* left of club control??!

SCOTUS: Constitutional protections for trans kids who want to play sports with their friends? Of course not, don’t be ridiculous. For AR-15s? Uhh, we’ll get back to you soon on that.
Two New York Times headlines next to each other. The first is about the Supreme Court denying Constitutional protections to trans kids in sports, and the second is about the court agreeing to hear a case about whether AR-15 rifles have Constitutional protections

Uhh, yikes. I love the Brewers and Miz is the greatest pitcher I’ll see in my lifetime, but no one in the marketing office raised a red flag on the KKK shirt?

@amnesty.org very based: "Amnesty International finds that standalone generative AI systems, based on unlawful web scraping, depend on mass invasions of privacy by design, and are fundamentally incompatible with IHRL. As such, Amnesty International is calling for a prohibition of such systems."

This briefing examines how standalone generative AI systems, based on unlawful web scraping, are in conflict with international human rights law (IHRL) and standards through their design, development and deployment. While these technologies promise sophisticated automation and efficiency, they rely on data collection and model training practices that abuse privacy rights, enable discrimination, and threaten […]

Paid about the same for a locally-brewed beer as I did for third row behind home, and over the last couple years have got to watch Jacob Misiorowski, Brice Turang, Sal Frelick, Andrew Fischer, Luis Peña, Jesus Madé, plus more on rehab assignments. It’s the best

What if instead of using Canvas in the fall, my students have to find me in the woods behind the library for class materials?? Sorry everyone, it’s time to learn from the trees.

I got an Anbernic handheld, downloaded a bunch of roms of legendary NES/SNES jprgs I’ve never played, and then immediately struggled to force myself through the first 20 minutes of all of them because there’s no guilt/cost of quitting. Ugh.

This is exactly why I’m holding off buying an S2 until I find out if we get a full remake of Ocarina of Time this year. That would be enough to push me over the edge.

I would buy two of this one just to make 100% sure I always had a backup. “Curds” in the retro font would also be acceptable.

Stir-fry that kid some Hearty Radishes to celebrate! I loved BOTW so much that I stopped just before Calamity Ganon and didn’t fight him because I didn’t want it to be over. Technically that means I’ve never stopped playing.

What? I’m not sure why you’re so confused. The plan is for municipal employees with children, and the reply was encouraging expansion of a great plan to additional groups, like working-class single parents.

I thought baseball was boring for a long time, then I realized it’s only boring to watch on TV. Listening to the Brewers on the radio while I do other stuff is the best.

What a gap between actual experiences of students and public perception of leftist indoctrination factories "just 2 percent of all college students—including 3 percent of Republicans—say they feel they don’t belong on campus due to their political views" www.insidehighered.com/news/student...

My mom just mailed me the GameBoy I had in middle school and I got to share it with my Switch-loving 7th grader. It made me a little more misty-eyed than I expected - just like your essay did!

I know exactly this feeling and I hate it. I’ve got good papers & projects that I just don’t bother assigning anymore because it’s not worth the suspicion - but then I’m immediately disappointed in myself for taking something away from students who’d have gotten a lot out of the assignment. Blergh.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

I just earned the right to swim into Lord Jabu-Jabu’s mouth yesterday, and my goal is to finish the game today! I grew up on LttP & Link’s Awakening, but I’d moved on to other stuff by the time the Oracle games came out. I’m so glad I got back to them, because the nostalgia hits deep.

This and the discussion about how academics can now just read AI summaries of things really drives home how much these guys always confuse the product for the goal. You don't do a coloring sheet because you want to have a colored sheet at the end!!! The coloring is the point!!!
