"I only voted with Nazis *some* of the time" really isn't as good of a defense as you think it is.

Collaborator. Spineless. Worthless. You had a chance to do something *TODAY* and you *chose* not to. You are garbage.

In other words, people already *need to have* the skills they're trying to use GenAI for in order for it to be an effective tool.

One of my favorite points on this was brought up by @techconnectify.bsky.social a while ago: one of the (many) problems with viewing GenAI as a tool is that you cannot tell when it fails. When your car or calculator fails, you *know*. With GenAI, the garbage is presented the same as everything else.

...or the first *Example* where he used the "prime" notation, and immediately discards it!

That stuff is *always* difficult for students, there is *always* confusion, don't throw out your convention right when you start to use it!!

I should disclose that I've *never* airbrushed before this (yay Christmas!) so it's possible there's something else I'm messing up! Brush was H&S Ultra 2024 @ around 30 psi.
