BlueSky, the Sports app, has taught me there are beefs between Caitlin Clark and (it seems) everyone else in the WNBA. What I don’t know is who the villain. Is Clark is the Kendrick or Drake?

SU isn’t the first/last, but it’s weird how detached admins are from student/industry needs. Jobs: In an AI world we should hire lots of humanities people. They know how to problem solve. Admin: Cut humanities! Make AI courses! Either admins are incompetent or it’s not about student needs at all

What the ending of the U.S.’ Temporary Protection Status could mean for Haiti

“Haiti remains gripped by armed violence [...] and a profound humanitarian crisis [and] the Supreme Court has given a green light to treat hundreds of thousands of Haitian families as disposable.”

…and this is why we need to oust as many timid establishment dems as possible. If we don’t get it right this time with deep sweeping reforms and prosecutions, it’s hard to see an ultimate outcome besides fascism or civil war. I’m not saying it will, but it sure feels that way.

Parents (USA) with college students: Have any of you found a way to lower car insurance? My kid is moving to college and so will drive the car maybe 3 months a year now. Feels absurd to pay $2,500 a year for insurance when be drives so infrequently.

I have this experience with student writing. I can’t grade a paper that’s polished without worrying about AI. I don’t want to praise someone and then turn out to be had because I wasn’t attentive enough to AI tells. I miss just being able to praise a student and be excited for their work.

Pete Woods@thatpetewoods.bsky.social · 2w ago

I think the thing I resent most about gen AI- and this is a selfish thing to say but it’s true- is that it’s put an asterix on my sense of wonder. What I mean is that now when I see an amazing or beautiful image I can’t have that initial “wow!” reaction. I doubt. I have to verify. I hate it.

An important list. Also, what a list. It’s hard to be ethical in late stage capitalism.

I took a hard look at the financial donors to ICE’s biggest supporters in Congress. These are people who want to significantly expand ICE’s power and have sponsored or co-sponsored legislation to do so. Here are the top 25 consumer brands bankrolling the biggest ICE supporters in Congress:

Tripling union membership would… -Raise the median worker’s wages by $7k+ annually -Reverse 1/3 of the increase in inequality since 1979 -Increase the number of people with health insurance And more. Unions are the key to taking on runaway corporate power. Every worker deserves one.
