Great explanation of “AI induced gaps” in learning, achievement, and student inclusion. I appreciate the explanation of algorithmic literacy and the focus on student ability to be creators and producers of knowledge.
I need everyone, esp anyone working in education or tech (but really everyone) to WATCH THIS CLIP of @drtanksley.bsky.social discussing the technologies infiltrating our schools & psyches and how she is addressing it with our young people. youtu.be/5mtcSL4S3HQ

Solid research and data overpowers opinion and speculation every time.
And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.
NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.

And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

This seems important.
Bartels did a study 20+ years ago looking at how much a member of Congress' record coincided with their constituents' views, broken down by income. MCs are a lot more responsive to their wealthier constituents. Think about whom SNAP and flight delays affect. www.russellsage.org/sites/defaul...

This is the definition of an ad hominem argument.
STEPHANOPOULOS: ProPublica reported that several members of the Trump administation have similar questions about their mortgages

VANCE: ProPublica is basically a left-wing blog

S: Do you dispute the facts they reported?

VANCE: I haven't read it. I have no idea. I certainly question the source

My conversations with international students echoes this sentiment.
Multiple times this year I’ve had coffee with fellow immigrants who grew up in corrupt third world countries and the shared sentiment has been that Americans don’t understand how bad things are going to get.

Within my research on how trust is built, transparency is one of the four basic building blocks.
If a Supreme Court judge can speak at a public conference he can do press interviews. The court wields huge power but shuns this basic level of transparency and accountability.
Chief Justice John Roberts warns anti-judge rhetoric can lead to violence
"Threatening the judges for doing their job is totally unacceptable," Roberts said at a judicial conference.

What you just witnessed at ACIP is policy-based evidence making NOT evidence-based policy-making.

See the difference?

The former is about confirming a previously held bias (this time about thimerosal) by misrepresenting data to make it fit an ideology.

This is a dangerous precedent.

This hits hard
The solution to every problem tends to reduce to “do the work” but so much today whether it’s business, influencing, sports team construction, what have you is trying to shortcut form over substance.

People often assume the emotions associated with cruelty are hatred and anger, but it’s actually pleasure and joy. Fascists relish their cruelty. They roll it around on their tongue like a mouthful of full-bodied wine. They laugh as they harm.

People who say the U.S. has never had gulags or programs are, once again, erasing Black people from American history.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.

Since the government is apparently now operating like a depraved private sector employer, might be worth it for these staffers to drive a ridiculously hard bargain. Want us back? We’ll need higher salaries, no political interference, no lawbreaking at our expense.
