What idiot pays $65k to send their kid to an “AI Powered” school? Seriously?
SCOOP: Alpha School, an “AI-powered private school” that heavily relies on AI to teach students and can cost up to $65,000 a year and has been praised by the press and the Trump administration, is AI-generating faulty lesson plans that internal documentation find sometimes do “more harm than good."
'Students Are Being Treated Like Guinea Pigs:' Inside an AI-Powered Private School
Leaked documents reveal the inner workings of Alpha School, which both the press and the Trump administration have applauded. The documents show Alpha School's AI is generating faulty lessons that som...

When I was making the curd for the lemon bars this week, I thought it was too weak so I toss dried sour cherries in as it set. Oh my god, lemon + sour cherries is my new favorite combo

Update on adulting and squirrels: We caught a squirrel yesterday sometime. They came and got him today. I asked what they do with them and these squirrels (lucky them) get released in a field in a nearby town instead of euthanized.

One of my adulting tasks today is to report whether or not there is a squirrel in a trap on my roof or not. It has to happen every day until we catch this asshole or we’re sure he’s gone. Nobody prepares you tor the stupidity of it all.

As somebody who listens to a lot of music that's not in English, nothing is more obviously racist to me than somebody insisting they can't listen to lyrics not in English. First of all, the lyrics are just one part of the song. Second, it wouldn't kill you to learn another language.

It can’t do interesting things musically, lyrically or politically because it can’t change the subject. So it’s just recycled content because what else can we say about sky daddy that hadn’t already been said?
