Very concerned with the Mormon State run ancestry website completely neglecting a 7% Spanish/Portuguese element from my results.

Whitewashing ancestry results, what could possibly go wrong?

Why is Trump waging a war on the Department of Education?

Because he knows that his biggest enemies are educators and younger generations of learners who are unafraid to speak truth to power.

Attacks on education are central to the fascist playbook.

I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts, rockets and presidents”.

Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

It's so funny watching people complain about a single use of the word 'fuck' on WWE "because there are kids watching" when an hour earlier they watched a man get beaten with a chair wrapped in barbed wire without batting an eye.

One danger of embracing generative AI as a learning device and in language assistance is that you're letting the keepers of that AI have power over what you learn and how you write. It will be programmed with biases, unintentional but often *quite* intentional, that you will unknowingly adopt.

For decades, the U.S. has funded science, then left scientists to direct their own work. Science has flourished, and the country has benefited. Now the government is testing just how much it can renegotiate that relationship, Katherine J. Wu writes:
