And those users themselves frequently don’t know if they got what they were asking for.

The translation of what someone who doesn’t think about data full time to the right question to ask also seems to me like something that AI will really struggle with. The training data would need to differentiate between users who got what they were asking for vs the users who didn’t,

Sometimes you can just give the readers what they want. Not always, but sometimes, yes, there’s no harm except to your hornery personality.

Teaching students who want to learn alongside students who want to complete the transaction must be two entirely different jobs.

And the chapter had had several guns fired. Honestly it just makes me glad to see so many teachers and professors trying to figure this out. It is really hard.

I love the idea of providing feedback for students who do the optional work. This whole topic is so difficult. I remember a teacher my kid had whose effort to force kids to read the book instead of the spark notes was to have regular quizzes with questions like “who fired a gun on page 78”

FWIW, this was high school and I’m pretty sure they all graduated from college in the years after.

A million years ago I was in a class full of people who spent hours programming their graphing calculators with the definitions we were going to be tested on. It would have taken an average student 20 minutes to just memorize these definitions. The stupidity of the cheating really offended me.

The hallucinations are a real problem!! It drives me nuts that ophthalmologists have so little interest in the actual experience of vision loss. I genuinely can’t tell if vision scientists do or not.

Oh no! I had thought your post cataract surgery situation was good. Does your brain hate having totally unbalanced vision as much as mine did?

If the genetic disease gets me, meta glasses are my best hope

Yeah right now I have better vision than I had in high school! Figuring out the cataracts revealed the genetic disease that may or may not cause symptoms. It solved the mystery of some other diagnoses in my mom’s family. My mom has no symptoms and good vision, so fingers crossed!

podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t... I mean would be happy for a different style but if I lose my vision (again) I want these!

I know they’re gross but I’ve got a rare genetic eye disease and when symptoms show up I will be buying them FAST

I have some experience with this and I truly think there is a small group of people who thoroughly enjoy subscribing, donating, and then becoming very aggrieved. GDPR has made it tough for me to figure out if these people repeat with the same org, which is kind of hilarious in itself.

No kidding, for your mental health and your kids’ well being, treat conversations with other parents like social media - something that can be good but that get toxic fast without you realizing it.

lol, good point. I do see the horrible news but I don’t see things like people saying kids deserved to die in a flood. (And if I did I’d block instantly)
