Assoc Prof, making science education more just for bi-/multilingual kids and their teachers. Trying hard to be the right kind of pest. Views are my own and whatnot. (He/Él)

😊😊 let’s! Idk if you all are interested in co-edited books (with chapters from editors, too), but we’re pretty proud of this one. It delves into sociolinguistics, tech, and liberatory practices (hard side-eye at AI and all that mess)

Boston spends 6.4 times more on policing than on libraries That probably explains why BPL is facing a pretty big (under)staffing crisis and may have to close some branches Is this really what we want? 📚 --- Graphic via @librariesftp.bsky.social www.librariesforthepeople.org/snapshots

Eugenics=white supremacy + ableism That may feel obvious, but we need to understand that within those who talk about better humans is someone who believes in the inherent superiority of whiteness in learning, thinking & behavior. They've now captured the government & tech to institute their beliefs

"Please Don't Use AI for Reviews" -- by @ffassnacht.bsky.social (repost from LinkedIN)
This goes out to everyone but particularly also to early stage researchers: 

Please do not use AI if you get invited for review papers for a scientific journal. There are several critical problems related to this: 1. It is not allowed to upload unpublished work to LMMs (copyright problems) 2. Be aware - editors will in 98% of the cases know that you used AI and it leaves a very bad impression on you 3. Be aware that editors would be perfectly capable to ask a LLM themselves if they would be interested AI's opinion. 4. An AI-review will force the editor to invite another reviewer and delay the process heavily. 5. Trust in your own capabilities - conducting reviews is actually also a good way to learn. Even a statement like "I cannot follow your thoughts in this section" may be helpful advice to the authors to improve their work. AI will not give such advice and is typically also not great at spotting problems in the experimental set-up.

So please - if you do not have the time to really review a manuscript or you are not capable of reviewing the manuscript adequately, just decline the invitation. Thanks!

For @motherjones.com, I looked into how Meta could be using disabled people to promote its Meta glasses to the masses. As one expert told me, “companies have used accessibility...as a Trojan horse for a tool that poses significant privacy and security threats.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
motherjones.com
Is Meta using disabled people to promote its glasses?
AI glasses are a double-edged sword for disabled people, who face unique risks from surveillance.

Turns out, lots of people have studied how higher education works under dictatorship. Curious how these points echo so many of our current travails.
Screenshot of article which reads: Hungary is not the first country to experience this coup d’université. The conclusion to an incisive collection of essays, appropriately titled Universities Under Dictatorship (Penn State University Press), notes that gaining control of higher education was “a vitally important goal for every dictatorship” they studied. The dictatorships profiled in the essays, from Germany to Spain to Poland to Russia, used multiple pathways to exert power over universities: coercing institutions to adjust research and teaching topics to align with the government’s preferred ideology; expelling faculty, staff and students; gaining additional control over who can access higher education; replacing university leadership with people who agree with the government (thus reducing institutional autonomy); and reducing access to international colleagues and institutions.

I kept reminding we had a pandemic followed by fascism and war in the 20th cent. Add current late stage capitalism's destruction of the public good and here we are. People were more than happy to sacrifice the vulnerable if it meant they could pretend things were normal. They still are.

I may have teared up at the moment where she was hesitating to renovate her house to make it accessible, worried about using her emergency fund. Her dad said: “Julia, this *is* an emergency.” Really appreciate Smithsonian mag’s communication of the emergency that is Long Covid.

@bakerdphd.bsky.social fwiw, novavax tends to have a bit longer of an immunity tail of — approx 6-7 months, which is 2-3 longer than Moderna/Pfizer. I also prefer it because it gives me the fewest side effects, but not every pharmacy carries it.

Four months ago, top scientists published a report showing that Himalayan glaciers are losing ice at double the rate since 2000, with some glaciers losing a third of their area in just three decades. "This isn’t a distant problem; it’s a crisis unfolding in real-time," they said. We were warned.

It’s wild to me that 6 years ago people were absolutely apoplectic about schools using Zoom. They INSISTED that schools needed to be open, despite the health risks, because it was so important for kids to be in traditional classes. Now they are promoting this.

The danger of this model is not so much for kids whose parents can spend $50,000 a year on Alpha School. The bigger problem is when this “ai school” gets foisted on kids whose parents cannot buy their way out of the fact that their kids got a shitty education.
