I am tired of having to pretend that the value of studying my discipline solely rests on the "marketable skills" we teach. Sometimes things are just worth knowing and doing because they make your life bigger and richer.

What a cool system the College Board created for all of us to deal with.

I really hate how AI has ruined the "I found this funny inane/ridiculous/etc thing on the Internet" genre and makes us all think it's slop now. Hate this timeline with a passion.

About to start what I think is the greatest episode of TV ever (In the Pale Moonlight) which got me thinking - whats the best episode ever made? Whether the series is good or not doesn't matter. Just the best episode of TV ever made.

Oh it turns out hiring the manager with some real toxic baggage hasn't solved all of Tottenham's problems? Look I'm Spurs till I die, but that doesn't mean I have to support this guy. Call me when he's fired.

I always forget they pulled Bashir from months in a Dominion POW camp and then immediately revealed he was genetically enhanced. That's some O'Brien level stuff right there.

An excellent read on why we are doing students a disservice when we allow AP to be college:

Made it through the first week of school. Think STARSHIP TROOPERS might be the best way to close out the week.

So freaking tired of living an existence where all you do is pick the lesser of two evils.

Two skeets -

First skeet reads: Google Maps caves to the whims of a mad king, MapQuest opened itself up for AI.... good thing I've got that trusted Rand McNally *drives into a building that wasn't there 22 years ago*

Second skeet reads: This is the way.

Well done, @mapquest.com.

Can tell today was the first day back for meetings in our house today - both my wife and I spent over an hour on various calls with some of our colleagues to debrief the day.

Just saw an ad on Insta where because a parent started using some calendar on a tv the kids started doing their chores. Now I don't have kids, but I'm a teacher & we have friends who have toddlers so take this for what it's worth: But that might be the worst lie in an ad I've seen in a long time.

Today in I'm Getting Older: Went to the optometrist for the first time ever. Aced the far away tests. Did the cycles through a few lenses. One of them looks like I'm seeing in HD for the first time ever. "Ya that's a +1 reader right there" he goes...

there are entire adults walking among us who believe the point of books is to extract the answers to SAT reading comprehension questions about them

Ш I really got into using Al while reading James Fenimore Cooper's "The Last of the Mohicans." The text was far too dense for casual vacation reading. My first prompt asked:
• "I'd like a guide as I read The Last of the Mohicans who can help me understand what I've read and where the story is, without giving spoilers or getting ahead of my progress. Can you do this, chapter by chapter?"
• The robot agreed: "Cooper's sentences are long and his diction is archaic."
• It promised to give me "a recap of what's happened so far and clarify anything confusing... I'll stick strictly to what you've read. No hints about what's coming."

We've become so dumb that we can't even figure these things out on our own apparently.

Ford is rolling out a new AI-powered assistant that can answer questions about your Ford or Lincoln vehicle, such as how much fuel you’ll need for your next road trip or whether your truck can tow that new motor boat.

Hell ya Coach Nakase - this is what leadership looks like. The #wnba is better because of folks speaking out, unlike whatever the hell Cathy's been doing the past week or so.
