I've argued that the issue facing education due to AI is not figuring out what AI means for assessment, or subjects, but what it means to be us? When AI can do a lot of what we do better, ask what can we do better than it? And teach (and be) that. This says that too but with far more articulacy.

On Terry Pratchett's birthday, a thread well worth reading. I only starting reading them 10 years ago. Two things put me off before then, there were so many of them, and the covers communicated to me that they'd be absurdist comedies, which I don't like (they're not).

Ugh - just had some spam inviting me "a free program funded for creatives based in the UK that want to get trained on AI" 1) if you're trying to convince people you're from the UK, using non-UK spelling is a bit of a give-away that you're not 2) using the word "creative" is a hugely class-based term

Among my regular passengers on the 44 are two young boys who ride with their grandma from California and 6th Ave all the way to Silver and Palou. The older brother is possibly a 2nd grader. Last night as they were getting off my bus, he handed me this hand made envelope.

Ooh we should have mentioned midichlorians in our ontology / epistemology of Star Wars episode. We would have needed to cite this if we do - captures the essence of the debate. @mikecollins.bsky.social

Frank R Paul really defined the whole look of 20s and 30s SF - his back covers for Amazing Stories (the "stories of the stars" and "city/life on ..." series) capture the wonder of imagining other worlds in a way that still hasn't been matched.
