I am heartbroken to see that the journal First Monday is shutting down. I'm all the more grateful I got to check one off the bucket list and publish there last year. But it will be missed.

Pedro Sánchez pone a 'ladrar' a los ultras con su frase sobre los tecno-oligarcas

Pedro Sánchez levanta ampollas con su tuit sobre los tecno-oligarcas y los ultras tienen que inventarse un debate absurdo sobre el Quijote
Pedro Sánchez lleva unos días bastante moviditos en cuanto a magnates tecnológicos se refiere por la medida del Gobierno de prohibir las redes sociales a los menores de 16 años.

"Containment" prob. my favorite ep of the Data Fix since "Consent," just one of those ones that sends you running to a library database to catch up. Would listen to Sofoulis reading the white pages

Proponents of AI all talk like ads for AI written by AI. Reading the foundhistory thread and:
"But this data is locked in handwritten docs. It was just too labor-intensive to be feasible. The ROI just wasn't there."
This is just LinkedIn-speak. It's contrived; it's an ad.

Absolutely the most IHE article that can be written, I can't think of a more IHE-brained article than this except maybe "how can ICE trainees use AI ethically?"

Higher ed can play an important role in making federal immigration enforcement safer. https://bit.ly/4bRR5fx

Remember that literally every single one of the billionaire freaks behind generative AI has very publicly aligned themselves with trump and his policies

Their CEO's are in and out of the oval office for photo ops, they're donating mountains of money to him, they're literally getting military titles

Came back to the open slopware repo 3 days later to see it gone and a bunch of HN bros crowing about closing it down, too much politics, bad tone, the open source community seems like good people

NEW from me — I broke down Trump's claim on local right wing radio that the US carried out a Christmas Eve land strike in Venezuela, how he doubled down Monday, the subsequent media reports with no substance, the potential role of social media rumors about an actual fire, and how we need the truth:
Trump says US bombed alleged drug facility in Venezuela. No one knows if it’s true.
It could be a lie from social media, or a conflation of other stories. Either way, Americans need to know.

I really do recommend the thread in the last repost (among a lot of others lately) because it gets to the fact that when I go to subject-matter conferences I hear a different type of discussion about AI than when I go to 2ary teacher cons or, troublingly, admin confs, like MSCHE

This is the part that's galling: to see the quickest wholesale change in student style and semantics not as a result of practice but as an expedient. Or to put it another way:

"When I started teaching, I thought student writing contained typical errors that accrued over their secondary careers...."
My teaching has been very effective, students love it, won lots of awards, etc.

But my approach now simply doesn't work. >80% of the submissions for every assignment use some AI. I have to *completely* change the entire way I teach SOLELY because of some greedy and irresponsible billionaires.

if the president of the American Federation of Teachers—a union which represents not just primary and secondary school teachers, but also many college professors—cannot meaningfully distinguish between AI ed tech sales pitches and responsible pedagogy, she has no business representing educators.

In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

imo, most AI skeptics nowadays actually have tried to use LLMs with some good faith and with the resources and training available to them, and are basing their skepticism on lived experience

AI advocates: you really need to learn to stop coming off to subject matter experts in other fields as if you’re Kool-Aid manning into the room and going “you’re dumb not to use these tools for your trivially easy jobs”

you may think this is an unfair read on your intentions, but life is unfair.
You absolutely will not convince a bunch of historians and sociologists and whoever else is in this thread that you know more than we do about this and we should use it. I wish you AI enthusiasts would stop wading into our conversations. You have nothing helpful to contribute and are snarky.
