To be honest I don't think the solutions to AI in education are hard to imagine they are just hard to fund. You need more in class time and smaller classes where faculty can engage more with students in the process of learning. This all costs money though as you have to grow more faculty.

I've found it: the worst way of presenting election results ever web.archive.org/web/20210426...

Had an experience recently where we received proofs about 3 months after acceptance, then an email 2 days later saying "we haven't copyedited these proofs yet" and then nothing for another month and a half. We're still waiting. Post-production in academic journals is incredibly poor right now.

Reading job applications: You all are doing a lot of survey (conjoint) experiments.

TIL.

@bryansgunn.bsky.social miss your content. I'm sure life is just busy, but hope all is well.

¡Feliz dias patrias! 🇨🇱

It's academic job market season. I’ve written a reflection with some potentially helpful tips: jaeyk.github.io/essays/job_m...

And now, just a few pictures from my trip to New England. Maine was so beautiful and Acadia National Park was picturesque.

Someone want to do the same with RAGBRAI?

A buddy is at Acadia National Park, and he's been kindly texting me photos — and that has me thinking about my one and only visit to that stunningly beautiful part of New England. One of my favorite stops was at Boulder Beach, so here are two views of the iconic location.

You all are pretty awesome people #APSA2025

Nothing like saying hello to someone and it being absolutely clear that they have no idea who you are despite extensive previous interaction #APSA2025 (I've been on both ends of this today)

Just in case someone wants a calming photo. Taken last week atop of Cadillac Mountain at Acadia National Park.

I think this is most of the conference since we're in British Columbia

There should be two tiers of penalties. 90% of them are not deserving of the 79% chance spot kick, which should be reserved for actual denying of a goal scoring opportunities. If not then it should instead be 90s MLS style pens. 1v1 vs a nutjob goalkeeper, 35 yards, 5 seconds.

In case you're questioning your career choice as a political scientist at #APSA2025.

The search down the tiers to find another club who have not scored eventually brings us to Acle United in the Anglian Combination Premier Division League, Step 7 of the English football pyramid. #AVFC www.nytimes.com/athletic/661...

Some photos from my recent trip to Acadia National Park in Maine.

Flee to Seattle with my littlest to visit my sister and her family and am taking the train to #APSA2025. Some highlights:

Fresh air hits different when it’s not laced with toxicity, great hike at Acadia National Park in Maine

Mark Knoller, a White House radio correspondent for CBS News who meticulously tallied the activities of presidents, including how many times they played golf, read from a teleprompter and declared that they “will not rest” until finishing the job for the American people, died on Saturday. He was 73.

Hiked around Acadia today. Good time.

Nothing in life is certain except death, taxes, and SPSA extending its deadline

Syllabus plug! Here's what I assign on how to give feedback (of which peer reviews are a special type, imo)

Acadia National Park is definitely among my top 5 most beautiful places I’ve ever visited.

took a short hike, twisted my foot. will go to urgent care later, but i did take a few nice photos.

I know some of you aren’t ready for this but I SO am: first autumn colors staring to appear in Acadia National Park. (This is looking up at the northeast side of Dorr Mtn. from the Great Meadow.)

United’s ability to find creative new ways to pull themselves back into a crisis is admirable. Lose 2-0 to a League 2 side? Nah, get it back to 2-2 late on, spurn a great chance to win it at the death, miss a penalty to win the shootout, then lose. It’s art.

Thinking about this. I think there are (some) individuals across parties who are genuinely interested in national interests but differ in their belief of what is best for the nation. But are we more able to work through disagreements if we believe & act as such? Cite is Morse (1896, yes 1896)

Interesting that so many are taking away "burn down PhD programs that don't place many grads in PhD-granting TT jobs" and not something like, "help PhD students understand the variety of gratifying, PhD-required careers (including TT jobs at non-PhD granting schools!) and how to prep for them" 🤷‍♀️

Otter Creek, on Mount Desert Island, is fading as a fishing village, in large measure b/c the National Park Service owns nearly all the waterfront land. A local fisherman found one sliver of land still in private hands, and built a community fish house there. www.islandinstitute.org/island-journ...

Did some serious hiking yesterday at Acadia. Good boots were a necessity. Not crowded and the views were incredible.

Cadillac Mountain.

My favorite shot from Acadia National Park last month. 🥰

When you look at this landscape, it consists of many different #Pieces. From the varied roots of the tree, to the boulders in the water, the clouds in the sky & even the pine needles on the trees. Together, the pieces create beauty. #BlueSkyArtShow #Landscape #Photography
