When I was ~10 a friend's mom come to our house. Knocked and asked my mom, "Do you know your children are worshiping the devil?" After the D&D explanation, my mom, a lifelong devout catholic, said

"They go into the basement and are quiet for 8 hours. Hail Satan."

Do you think this was because the professor came in with a "I have no idea what to do about AI-use, but I don't want to waste my time on papers that were written by AI" attitude? My sense is that students were free to use AI however they wanted but had to demonstrate knowledge in class.

I saw "AI can help you learn, but it can also prevent you from learning." The collaborative in-class stuff, particularly as it contrasted a "top-down" teacher mandated structure; the goal of classroom education is learning, not "getting grades" - maybe AI isn't the right tool for that job, today.

Ooooof. That's a lot! Catch up again in February!

I kinda do, and THANK YOU, that's incredibly generous! But lets put it on the back burner for a bit - got a lot of balls in the air until mid-february. :D

I remember this from back in the day! Twyla choreo, good stuff.

I did some work with one of the musical directors for White Nights, who told a fun story about how B really wanted to do musicals but couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. :)

Hah, no, its all good - I was just inspired to throw my $.02 in when you mentioned a GMing mcp.

I'm running a 2e game right now, but the halfway in between sounds like it'd be pretty sweet.

I have Notebook LM loaded up with the rulebooks so I generally use that if I have questions - but tracking npcs, locations, encounter nodes, and RP XP are all things I'm taking more time with than I'd like

Hey if you knock out a GM's assistant that can remember stuff so I don't need multiple spreadsheets, lmk :D

Truly, the secret pals are the best of the best.
