Isn't the point that there's much that could and does take the human educator away from being inspirational, and AI (and other digital tools) can allow space for more empathy/creativity? Particularly so when, with growing life v study pressure, human to human time is precious.

I think that's acceptable preparation. Though another level of preparation for me is taste testing mince pies in November. And I don't think you can properly taste test a mince pie without having a whole one #whoateallthepies

"She's a Melter" is my favourite, though William Wall-ice is there currently keeping our big road open.

-6'C walking the dog this morning. Unusually, driving over my local hill pass, the temp went up (to -2), then back to -8 on the other side. Icy air in the glens! Usually colder 'up top'.

Come on in! Make yourself comfortable :-)

There's an interesting question about being able to distinguish hearing aids and earbuds, thinking about it. Those technologies should probably converge. I'm guessing Apple don't do discounts on a single earbud?

I'm not sure I like the idea of hidden earbuds. I don't want to be talking to someone who I'm not sure can hear me. At least with the plastic pipes I can wait until they remove them.
