Happy Hot Fuzz Day

Word of the Day is ‘bayard’ (16th century): one who has the supreme self-confidence of ignorance.

Ahhh…there’s nothing to beat the classics

It's cold. Going to be even colder tomorrow and Wednesday. School has already been called off for the next 2 days.

The ‘teacher shortage’ is really just a shortage of people who are willing to be overworked, under-respected and undercompensated all while doing the world’s most important job. 🍎👍 #nced

I'm looking for other Computer Science/Game Dev teachers to connect with. Not seeing too many CS teachers posting much. #EduSky

@annijyn.bsky.social I made your oatmeal cranberry cookies. Didn't come out looking as good as yours and I added a splash of orange juice. Everyone likes them here.

For the second time since we bought our house, I heard an owl hooting in a tree nearby last night. It was really close or really big based on how loud and deep the hoots were. We heard a squeak not too long after and hope it got a field mouse.

So how much longer are cyber trucks going to be allowed on the road? I mean, seriously, how many more people are going to die while driving those things or others getting hurt when they explode?

I started a Donors Choose project to get more wireless mics my school. Having another set of these mics and an SDI cable to sync multiple cameras would go a long way to help students create videos. Use promo code LIFTOFF to double the donation until 12/13/24. www.donorschoose.org/project/wire...

News: "OMG armageddon snow until Friday morning!!!!! School might called off! doooom!!" Me this morning: Throws salt on the driveway. More worried about the ice that they didn't mention

Sharing for great justice! Or... just good food

I have requested from @matthewgross.bsky.social that he needs to make me a character for grouper.school that looks like a spreadsheet. Please tell him you vote for this too 🤣 #EduSky

Testing the humor barometer on this platform

I teach IT and programming at the high school level. Every year, I have at least one 10th grader say something like "That's how it actually works?!". We don't need ai put into everything. Just like we don't need smart fridges, coffee makers or stoves. People need to be informed.
