NIST Internet Time Service

They don’t really offer services to the private entities without prior arrangement.

time.nist.gov does DNS round robbin, so there shouldn’t be a huge problem taking one of the facilities offline.

As a resident of #Portland it is impossible to capture how unhinged this is. We are a low crime city and the ICE protest "siege" consists of one auxiliary ICE office that normally has at most a dozen weirdos debating what performance art they should use to block a single driveway

A llama or similar large brown fuzzy animal stands in a meadow in front of what looks like old ruins or a historic site. The llamas head is thrown back and its entire mouth open in what looks like a scream but might have been a yawn. I downloaded this picture a long time ago and no idea the context or where it came from.

This.

The skill is built in the doing.
The reward is in the struggle.

Outsourcing one's cognition does not make you a better writer.

Writing (and reading) makes you a better writer.

Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.
