a lot of people’s intellectual life begins with video content and ends with essays about video content
Super excited to see my two pieces on maths and AI where I chat to two of the best mathematicians working today in print in New Scientist
unfortunately whenever the subject of "play" comes up for adults i wince and tune out
The greatest thing has happened to me today (everyone who signed up for today's workshop did so for the 11 a.m. session and I'm exhausted and miserable and couldn't fathom getting on Zoom at 7 p.m. so this is GOD)

heavy on the "plus accept aggressive editing"
Karen K. Ho@karenho.bsky.social · last mo.I also find it odd how many writers and reporters — especially Black, Hispanic, and Asian ones — are expected to back everything up with reporting, research, data, interviews, and other sources, plus accept aggressive editing. Ross Barkan was able to publish 67 columns with inadequate attribution.

"all y'all" "everyone here" "yalls fault" ellict the same resonse from me
The thing where I tried doing video because I was like, "Well, maybe I'll actually enjoy this medium" and I hated it, and now it's like do I turn my thoughts into little carousels so that people can not sign up for my newsletter or ever read one of my books anyway? No lol
