IMO, senior faculty at top R1 institutions rushing to use AI to flood journals with papers before future students or early career researchers can have an opportunity is not just greedy, it's salting the earth of the discipline.

Buy some indian corn, run it through a coffee grinder. Experience all that grits can be in when they are crazy colors as well as delicious

Why would anyone choose to dwell, for even a second, in the Kafka liminal zone of “by AI” or “with AI”? When you can do literally anything else, why would you do this with your one life?

I did this in 2019-20 and got a whole lot out of it. I am legitimately a better teacher because of this program!

How could you expose our network? We are compromised now.

Absolutely horrifying.

How many times do I have to tell people that are not interested in having their AI help me learn the concepts before it understands that I would rather learn by myself or a human I know and trust!

I love this band so much @chrisdonaghey.bsky.social let's go to Wisconsin youtu.be/Mojvh0burw8?...

I hope this dowsing rod finds you well.

My choice for bond

In the summer we generate more than we use and still have to pay$4x a month. It's infuriating sometimes

There are so many ways the physics here fails. It just keeps giving

This looks great

Whoops!

I am on my second reading of this book and it's even better than I remember. Just about perfect

Taking the kids camping this weekend at the red river gorge herpetology festival in Kentucky. Time to walk around in the woods and look for snakes and salamanders! I am glad that some things still kick ass.

Ahh grading proof based tests. Every year I have a moment where I think I should just phone it in and do only multiple choice tests forever....

Ahh the highest quality journalism from my local paper. AI is always correct and good....

I mowed the lawn and found dinner.

Protect trans kids, today and every day, so they can grow into flourishing adults ❤️

Best railcar graffiti I've ever seen

The new Lice, Aesop Rock and Homeboy Sandman album is actually great.

Has anybody ever mountain biked in Louisville? I've got 8 hours to hang out and I hear good things about Waverly Park. Are any trails better than the rest?

A good idea is a good idea.

We don’t actually have to tolerate this as a society

My TV? On the radio.

Hanging out at the airport on the way back from a week of birding in the Yucatan Peninsula. An amazing place with amazing birds, history and people. Highlight was spend time with Angel Castillo at the Xocen Birding trail, a Mayan co-op for ecotourism.

A student came into my class today and loudly proclaimed that my room always smells like coffee and expo markers. They are not wrong.

Wow, perfect

Oh boy I get two hours to map my curriculum for 5 subjects tomorrow in the slightly new format the new admin wants. I'm sure it will be looked at very closely and it's not just busy work.

I think that @chrisdonaghey.bsky.social and I have a summer plan.

It is impossible to belong to ICE and have a clear conscience at this point.

This is truly terrifying. Education is not just grades and the possibility of a job afterwards. If we as teachers want to continue to exist this needs to be discussed. We need to decide why we value education and teach that way or this is all that will be left

No true astronomer will "not all stars" this

Anyone a VdG generator technician and know why I am not building up a charge anymore? Can the belt get too old and cracked? #iteachphysics #mtbos

Why does my desk always end up like this

🔭🧪 Are you interested in having a night sky? (Like at all?) File comments with the FCC telling them to deny permission to Starlink for “a million satellites” and to Reflect Orbital for their giant sunlight mirror in space. The American Astronomical Society has info on how 👇

I am kind of conflicted tonight. I have a ancient office chair in my room that is permanently set for somebody who is very short, I am 6'4". My students surprised me today by all pitching in and ordering me an office chair that the secretary and vice principal delivered during class.

I got some email today inviting us to sign up for some premium version of chat gpt for free today as a k12 teacher. It really kind of horrified me. It's straight from a DARE video, first hits free.

After 18 years of teaching at the same school I suddenly realized that the ability to walk on the indoor track in the winter is actually awesome.

Day 3 of only physical media. Okervil River I am very far starting off.

Top 10 birds of eastern North America here

My phone no longer on connects to the stereo Bluetooth for reasons so I am listening to old burned CDs tonight and it is glorious. I forgot how great Jamie xx is. A perfect album for the night
