Judging colleges by how they teach vocational skills misses the point, argues an engineering professor.
The skills employers need most include initiative, critical thinking, navigating ambiguity, and more – and those come from blending humanities and STEM. buff.ly/FWQuzll

Colleges teach the most valuable career skills when they don’t stick narrowly to preprofessional education
Parents and policymakers want job security for graduates, but in the AI and automation era, careers may depend as much on curiosity and initiative as on credentials.

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

Exciting new research that demonstrates how localities in the same metropolitan area have wildly varying tax bases—which go on to have a huge impact on the ability to provide services. Rich towns can collect more taxes, give themselves better services, and reinforce inequality.
🚨We analyzed 138 million geocoded property tax records to quantify how municipal boundaries spatially overlap onto economic segregation in every US metro area—creating disparities in localities’ ability to fund public goods. And we made an interactive map of our results! [1/16]

Problem is: Neither our work culture nor our education culture incentivizes deep learning. Instead, we're incentivized to economize--to learn only what's needed to finish the task or get the answer right on the test.
So, people use ChatGPT, even when they know they could learn more by other means.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

An idea that somehow never really comes up in any political theory literature is that, if someone is, in fact, incapable of participating in the business of self-government as an equal (say because they're eight years old), what that means is the rest of us owe them a very strong fiduciary duty
the thing which gives the game away on scientific racism is that if we discovered an island where everyone was gravely intellectually disabled and some guy said, "great, let's make them our slaves," we would beat him to death with hammers but if you say that about actual people it's taken seriously

My most elder millennial hot take is that any restaurant with a cafeteria style service line where they make your food I front of you prior to paying for your meal is the third most painful dining experience possible right after buffets and holiday dinners with your extended family
