Teachers, don't miss these shows from @codejoyedu.bsky.social. They are so well made. Your students will be inspired to try robotics and coding. Elby is the star of the show and students can make one for themselves! learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbirdb...

Sponsored shows are free! #microbit

A truck swerved towards a group of protesters. Not to hit them, just scare them. The police arrested him and impounded his truck. The crimes committed include assault, assault with a deadly weapon, and reckless endangerment.

Trump has made being an ass hole popular, but not always legal.

Here is a slide I have been showing my students for a few years.

Generative AI prompting is just another programming language. Professional level classes are already advising us to include "think deeply" or "let's think step by step" in our prompts.

The real question is: Will they pay us more?

I went to the @codejoyedu.bsky.social Robot Garden interactive class today. Another great show for younger kids and adults who never grew up like me. I was inspired by the "BatteryFly". I am going to have to think about making one for myself. These shows always get me thinking. Try one. #microbit

I just finished another good webinar from @codejoyedu.bsky.social. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about teaching and AI. Go to pathfinders.onwingspan.com and look for Practical AI for Educators.

@elecfreaks.bsky.social I am looking at some building brick motors. I have seen these. The problem is that at no time has a photo of the cable and connection ever been taken.

We have this photo. It shows that it will be plugged in, but no notes on what cable will do that.
