Education is one of the biggest remaining US exports. So many international students come and feed dollars into our system because university infrastructure doesn’t exist everywhere. Do we really want to shut this down?

My papers are in there. I'm sure much of my code and other content is as well, whether the GitHub repos are private or not. All this hurts me financially when your Google search gives an AI summary rather than a link to my channel.

I more or less stopped reading for pleasure in grad school, in part because of how guilty I felt when I wasn't plowing through some math paper or other. Now, 10 years past my Ph.D, I'm finally returning to it. Reading fiction feels so luxurious now, a form of self-care. Who has recommendations?

Version control
The central limit theorem
The grammar of graphics
Basically all of linear algebra

One of the weirdest things for me as I teach my first writing class is the amount of time spent with bibliographies. Despite having published plenty, I’ve never written a bibliography by hand in my life and have no idea what the difference is between Chicago and AP style.

It’s a stressful day. Spend a little of it finally understanding analysis of variance.

Connie is pretty ok too
When I moved to Ohio in 2019, Sherrod Brown wrote a letter welcoming me to state. I was SHOOK.
When my memoir came out, his wife sent me a video of him reading it out loud on a plane. I told her “the next chapter has a WILD sex scene, you might wanna warn him.”
Anyway, Sherrod Brown is great.

Sherrod Brown is in the fight of his life. The enthusiasm Kamala Harris has unleashed might just help him win it.

Capitalism calls this “homeopathy” and you should run whenever you see the word.
COVID denialism and misinformation has led to Olympic athletes not even washing their hands because they wrongly think it will help them become more resistant against disease. Handwashing helps prevents spread of infectious diseases, especially in risky environments like bathrooms.

I literally warned y'all about exactly this kind of harmful outcome from GPT integrations, & even told you *why/how* it'd happen.
