In the orchestra today one of the bassists was just living his best life - I found a video of the RSNO where you can see his head-banging energy youtube.com/clip/UgkxMgl...

Need to speak to the Alto Union about this. Excuse me??? This is worse than Beethoven 🤣

At a singing day and my objective is to convince the alto sitting next to me to quit her home town community choir, because they are terrible and she hates singing with them. She doesn't like the style of music they do, and she is significantly more musically skilled than the group.

Thought this was a loss meme at first glance

A friend of mine has just launched this website that I think is pretty great for generating quick starters for A-Level maths and he has started adding some questions for Further Maths too. mrhardymaths.co.uk #MathsToday #ALevelMaths

Hard agree. Most of the time I'm the one looking at my walls. I don't like the visual clutter of books. I was so happy when I installed gallery rails and covered an entire wall in my flat with art.

Play stupid games...

I'd like 2026 to be my Year of Actually Using a notetaking app. Everything seems to have AI in it. Are there any notes apps left that don't?? Will I be reduced to using .txt files that live in my dropbox or something?

so excited to get this email!!

Anyone have handy links to some UK edu starter packs? Not only maths, but others too. Pls RT!

Iconic MEI shenanigans

I think I’ve been freed???

Absolutely incredible that we have AI engines that can generate revenge porn but we can't make a screen reader that can read out text from inside a picture? Did I hallucinate OCR technology in the 90s or something

#ALevelMaths B (MEI) H640 also available on Teach Cambridge.

Who knows about "accessibility" PDFs (readable by screen readers) and MS Word? Why when I "Print to PDF" this doc is 2 pages, but if I "export" to PDF, it is 3 pages? On screen, it is 2 pages. When I print to paper, it is 2 pages. Absolute blank faces when I ask the senco or the repro woman.

In #MathsToday I invented the ‘approximately implies’ sign for small angles in trig.

Sue the school if it doesn't accommodate your "disability", Sue the school if it does. Win win!

No, never use Gen-AI to get answers to questions. Seriously, never. What a shower of crap it is.

I like that the same day a guy was like “this place will never be Twitter” this thread gave us the most 2015 Twitter experience (complimentary) imaginable.

Who did the proof-reading...?

omg 😂 I know it's a serious issue but also 🤭

At Latin class we are reading a text about the Delphic Oracle. Tutor: does anyone know who the Oracle was? Me: wasn't she a character in The Matrix? Tutor: hmm don't think so

I am branching out into Whole school timetabling this year... What are peoples go to for initial set up? Pen and paper? Excel? Straight into timetabling software? Any retweets outside of maths would be great too.

A reminder that mathematical modellers and psychologists have conclusively demonstrated that "Blue Monday" is the most dispiriting day of the year to be a mathematical modeller or a psychologist. www.theguardian.com/science/blog...

If you don't want to have kids, it's fine. And if you end up settling "abroad", it's also fine. If you don't go in with an "expat" mindset, you won't feel adrift.

Be warned: if you ask questions then you may receive answers.

Seems unfair that you only get to use the bouncy slide to get off a plane when things have gone wrong. The bouncy slide should be a treat they give to the best passengers who did the flight correctly.

Had an intriguing editorial discussion recently: how did people in the past talk about 'minutes' when they didn't have watches or standardised times? How does that affect your thinking? Come down an Elizabethan/Jacobean rabbit hole with me. 1/

WTF??!???? That's NOT what STEM stands for!

not once has anyone said The Queen and meant Camilla

I’m looking for a revision sheet covering all the different types of integration in #Edexcel A Level #FurtherMaths. Does anyone know if such a thing exists? There must be something somewhere!

A child saw me reading a novel at break time and exclaimed "Miss, are you an English teacher??!" This is a child who has been in my maths class every day since September.

Gave him one of my Rubik's cubes

I genuinely think this is an universal thing literally nobody loves their country as much as a person who heard an American express a mildly negative opinion about it

Was looking at an interesting bookish "reading room" event and this post describing the vibe includes "soft light" Aargh if I am trying to read, turn the lights up please?!? I get that dim lighting is very a e s t h e t i c but i am too old for this

Could y’all do me a favour. Tutoring a friend’s daughter recently has reminded me that I love teaching maths. I’m looking to take on a few students to tutor this year (KS3 or 4) Please share my details with anyone who might be interested. Www.djmmathseducation.com/online-maths-tuition

I can't believe that this has been an option the entire time *sets up school for raccoons against racism*

You should definitely check out the latest update to the tool linked below, it makes writing on PDFs so easy. bsky.app/profile/matt...

Someone just tried to join my nerd hobbyist discord and interact by pasting in paragraphs of ChatGPT generated slop and we all bullied him so badly he left the server after 48 hrs.

Residents of London in the Doctor Who universe every six months:

for me the personal legacy of how scott adams's work touched my life is when i was like 9 i read the dilbert principle, and also the joy of work, and learned the word "masturbating" from one of those books but had no idea what it meant and said it in front of my grandfather and got in trouble

I DNF a book after a page, when I saw that the first page was numbered "2", followed by "3" then "5".

One for the maths teachers out there.... Does anybody use booklets AND like them / have had a positive experience? Looking to reach out and find out more.. any 'sharing' of post welcome... If that's what you do on here 🤣 @themathsbazaar.bsky.social

lol
