What’s the opposite of “rolls over in grave.” Gives a thumbs up from the grave? Or “Dante <3’s this” from @theonion.com.

When an insurance company is deciding whether to pay for your medical treatment, it generates a file, which should contain all records associated with your case, including documents explaining why the claim was denied. You have a right to see this file.

Fewer teachers signed up for Skype a Scientist this February than the last few Februarys. Could be lots of reasons for that, but ugh. Still bums me out. It's my responsibility to make sure we get people connected with science but teacher outreach is VERY hard. Once again I need to get creative.

Every job I’ve ever held in government I have done the jobs of 3 people (or more) We can’t buy coffee or water for employees. We crowdfund for holiday parties or retirement gifts. There is no such thing as performance bonuses Job security was the one perk and now that’s gone, too

Also is gates being a credulous doof? I’m sure AP manuals, reddit posts, practice questions, lesson plans, and teacher-community social media, is alllll in training data. GPT just barfed up a high-speed re-digestion of the known.

If an LLM can pass your test, based simply on strings of probabilities, you might should reconsider your test.

Like, think about the mechanics of giving feedback. If it takes 5 minutes to read and comment on a student response, that’s 13.5 hours on ONE task, atop the instructional day.

I guess this is rage bait because it’s among the most disgusting and evil things I’ve read this week (and we live in a world of ascendant Nazis so the bar is high) the fuck are we doing??

I am very sympathetic to the constraints teachers work under, but there are examples in the article that amount to giving up on teaching students to write (and read) and it really worries me. This is what I'm fighting against in More Than Words. www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/john-...

By the way, the detail from an AI-using teacher: 161 students in classes of 36+, is enraging. You wonder why students are writing less? Because infrastructure and decision-makimg kneecaps good instruction at every turn.

It's beginning to become clear that loudly and publicly yelling "We're mad as hell & we're not gonna take this anymore," Howard Beale-style, is our most effective strategy right now, which works out well given that that's all I feel like doing.

I posted a copy of the 3 minute version of my speech from yesterday (with citations) if anyone is interested. Feel free to steal from it if you want! (also, this is literally less than half of the Nazi shit they're currently pulling)
