I remain a Hamilton stalwart because I refuse to support a driver whose mother is my age or younger. But Alonso field of effs is clearly empty this season and it's a delight to watch.

But a really funny thing about watching the series is you literally see boys become men. Kimi Antonelli, in particular is a child in the current (2025) Drive to Survive season but full on adult in today's pre-race interviews.

Oh! This #F1 podcast is new to me and sounds great. (Others recommend Drive to Survive but imo, it's not a good starting point recommendation. It's better once you know the basics.)

Factory model school - Wikipedia

If you're so inclined to understand said rage, I'm the author of this Wikipedia article about the myth of the factory school.

An Unconventional Seating Plan Designed to Benefit Focus and Learning After years of search and experimentation, this teacher finally hit on a room layout that allowed for efficient shifting between whole class, small group, and independent work.

And have to share two @edutopia.org posts in a row because this one from @mrrablin.bsky.social is SO cool! I have never seen this seating-arrangement strategy before.

So there is a story about the "top 10 cities at risk during nuclear war" circulating in various tabloids/etc. with my name attached to it, and I will say that a) I never have (nor would) make such a list at all, and b) I never said any of the quotes attributed to me in the article.

This framing made me laugh mostly because it violates the "dead person rule" I was taught regarding IEP goal writing in college (if a dead person can do, it's a bad IEP goal - ie. "the student won't yell in 5/5 classes").

But also, this is policing teachers' speech and so it goes, so it goes.

Everyone who showed up was over the age of 65 and had specific, pointed questions about AI. It was a great conversation.

Exactly. And shout out to editors specifically.

I'm giving a talk at my local library tonight about "considerations" regarding using ChatGPT and keep updating my slidedeck with new examples.

So cool! Are you allowing yourself to re-use symbols in different months?

One encouraging theme in last night's NC primaries is the simple fact that being pro-trans is now like being anti-ICE among Dem voters: to them, it means you're a fighter, it means you're not giving into Trump.

That's a really, really good sign.

This is a textbook example of how modern Conservatism is not the same as conservative thought when it comes to public schools.

I appreciate this analysis of "The Pro-Human AI Declaration" going around.

Say more? I'm not sure what you mean by "all of it"?

β€˜Nazi heaven’: Inside Miami campus Republicans’ racist group chat The chat is the subject of a Florida International University police investigation.

The secretary of Miami-Dade County’s GOP started a group chat for conservative students β€” and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"

For sure! This is a good summary of three models of disability if they've never hit your radar. You're describing the social model; people who say "increase" are generally referencing the medical model.

So Grammarly didn't just go full GenAI, it went full fuck the human editors. That sucks.

There are too many people like Jeffrey Epstein in American classrooms.

There are too many people like Jeffrey Epstein in American classrooms.

I've always been a fan of the phrase, "men are people, women are women" because it speaks to so many things. This sub-heading in an article makes me wonder if it works the other way ("people are men, women are women").

A photograph of a press conference with 10 white men and the shoes of one one white woman.

A photograph of a press conference with 10 white men and the shoes of one one white woman.

I think this picture from a local press conference has more Eds than women (there is one - you can see her feet on the far left.)

My favorite part was when one of the other speakers thanked the Asssemblymen for coming. Which... technically, yes. The lone woman is a board member.

My hunch is there isn't going to be a smoking gun - he's offering his opinion on a sequence of events.

It's a reasonable claim for him to make but there's also likely a bit of storytelling. It's probably that it was A + B = C and more A happened at the same as B, thus C.

'Reading Rainbow' Was Canceled After 26 Years Due to This Sad Reason Why did 'Reading Rainbow' get canceled after a 26-year run? PBS just isn't the same without the LeVar Burton series. Keep reading for details.

There's also this but it's kinda click-baity.
