Omg you guys I'm obsessed with this one, fresh off the sewing machine/serger.
As someone currently in the rewrite, craft, polish final stages of thesis writing, this. Also - Bender and Hanna's book 'The AI Con' is excellent and a great argument for the enduring value of longform writing. It's starting to feel like reading is becoming an act of resistance against AI.
I have never in 3 decades in higher education worked for an organization who did an evaluation of their software needs before purchasing extremely expensive software that the sales team promised would fix all their problems.
We're on six supplemental systems at this point doing the things it can't.

a skeet from @jay.bsky.team that says: Guys, please don't let "skeets" stick The experiment in decentralized naming decisions has resulted in the worst possible term How about skoots?

happy 2nd anniversary to the most important piece of bluesky lore
life size bronze statue of a despondent peasant seated head in hand on a chicken cage, a large sword protruding from his back, seen from below and silhouetted against blue sky, with a pale stone church tower to the left.
how cow, they actually built #Durer's monument to murdered peasants! Wonder if @periodeye.bsky.social knows about this.
It struck a chord because it's true. As I write in More Than Words, the chief benefit of LLMs to writing (and teaching writing) is it forces us to examine what we value in writing. We should be building statues of the students who remain proud to be themselves & encourage others to join them.
Every person on Bluesky should know:

I’m also really enjoying the genre of Chinese creators giving house tours with all their US-made items, such as this one.
I cannot stress enough that it is possible to govern well, and to do so in a manner that is broadly accretive.
I spoke to another person this week—also a US-born citizen—who showed me the DHS email she received informing her that she had to leave the country. Incompetent, evil or both?
Watercolor and pencil illustration of a torch ginger inflorescence. The inflorescence is covered in numerous overlapping 'petals'. The 'petals' (which are actually bracts) are rather dry and withered looking here, the usual vigorous red of the torch ginger turned ashy pink with age and dehydration
I've been busy working on the side, but have thoroughly neglected this account woops! I'm far more active on my Instagram
Study of a withered torch ginger inflorescence. Even in this worn state, it doesn't fail to keep me captivated

True fact.
I was fully vaxed as a kid in the 70s. Recent test showed I was no longer immune.
Fixed that last week.

My wife works in a college writing center. She helps students go over their papers and make them better.
They just recently put into place a policy where they check the links to the sources cited. If they aren’t real, they don’t read the paper and send an email explaining why they don’t read AI.
and — i know i keep saying this but i have a hunch it'll be important — americans have not yet felt the tariffs
A major paper @nature.com this week found a significant decline in dementia after an outdated Shingles vaccine.
I've reviewed the study and many other relevant ones here

I mean, this is just Quality Work
Man, the big huge protests in places like Boston, DC, NY, Chicago, and Minneapolis are awe-inspiring.
But my heart is gonna explode looking at these crowds of people out in tiny Maine towns and super red Alabama towns. Places where 15% of the population is on the street corner with more coming!
Hands Off rally sign: I like my government how I like my coffee, not in my vagina
One of my favorite weird signs at the rally
A smiling person holds a sign over their head. It reads “vegetarian but will eat the rich”
Lots of people willing to try new foods
A poster board sign reads “grab him my the teslacles”
