A curfew sounds great. I’d start with an 8am - 8pm ban on SUVs and luxury vehicles on Exchequer/Wicklow streets. Those drivers are a menace to the general population.

Mention of BTO (Bachman Turner Overedrive) has prompted thinking about other bands that are just initials: AC/DC of course, CCS of Top of the pops theme fame, MGMT, REM ...? There must be many many others.

Budapest? Not everyone may remember this, but in 1994 Ukraine already got assurances of territorial integrity from the US, Russia and the UK. In Budapest. Maybe I’m superstitious, but this time I would try to find another place.

New semester new AI policy for my syllabus. Drawn from my prior policy, @melhogan.bsky.social 's very clear and concise recent post about AI's problems, and reading "Empire of AI" this summer. For context, this is for a creative coding class in an art department.

“Tegestology is the term for collecting beer mats ….”

Rachel has much, much more on this critical element of our pub-going experience.

So, how do we reduce AI misuse/learning loss in writing assignments?

These slides for a recent presentation show how I layer strategies.

1. Frame the value of writing for thinking and make assignments motivating and social.

2. Set up guardrails to discourage misuse.

This AI in edu podcast is extremely fun, funny, thought-provoking. My 14-year-old made off with my phone and second earbud to keep listening even though he is generally anti-AI and the podcast is more enthusiastic (though also critical). myrobotteacher.bsky.social calearninglab.org/myrobotteach...
