Watched something on #evidence in education, someone said "Think #Bias!" and the subtitles rendered this as "think by ass" and I will never not hear those three words every time I open a research paper.

Is it possible to devise a kind of encryption that will grow easier to break based on the passage of time? A key that can be reliably produced with enough calculations could be a start, but you can’t account for faster computers. Maybe a system that has a host of parameters based on other computers and sensors? but inputs can be faked. I don’t know if this question really even makes sense: it seems to bush against something fundamental and impossible.

A place on earth where gravity may be turned down a bit. That hammock looks comfy.

Of course it's crooked for effect, but not by much, look at the green basketball hoop thingie. It's almost straight. Every line gets incrementally worse as you pan from left to right. This photo is pre #AI

Almost feels like news worth celebrating until you remember the track record of child protection regulations in the UK, a country where the economy is being propped up by pushing junk food and nicotine onto children.

It's a Christmas special Black Mirror/The Thick o It crossover episode!

"The idea was developed by the boss of a cryptocurrency firm with a string of failed businesses behind him. Yet senior Conservative officials appeared so captivated by the plan that they prepared to provide the party’s database of members in order to move the proposal forward"

For all my fellow over sharers out there.

As a chronic people-pleaser, this is my advice for success.

Offer as little as possible. Be terse. Get rid of all those exclamation marks and tidbits about why you want to take a sick day. State your needs clearly and concisely without reason. Start saying “No, I’m unable.” more often. Say Thank You only when the other party deserves it.

They replied within 20 minutes, apologizing to ME, saying it was probably their fault, that they'd been having trouble with their computer system for days, and of course I could reschedule, was I available that afternoon? Don't ever volunteer information, kids. You never know what information the other party has, and you can always give information if asked for it later.

I love that “you sound scared” has become a way to shut down critics of AI.

…yes.

yes, I absolutely am scared of it.

No, I’m not ashamed of that.

I don’t hate AI. I don't believe it’s going to destroy us terminator style.

But I’m scared half to hell of the misinformation, political divisions, unemployment, manipulation, spam and deepfake porn and what it’s going to do to our world.

Like it or dislike it, everyone should have a healthy level of fear about what this technology can do.

Re-post: I would like to ask for your help.

As part of my dissertation project, I'm aiming to collect a large research sample to help construct a validated measure on Teacher Attitudes towards Multilingualism.

If you are a teacher (primary, secondary, tertiary education), and you teach multilingual students, could I please ask for 10 minutes of your time?

The survey is available here:

Please boost—thank you so much!

This morning, Y7 class:
"...you'll remember we already know of four types in Python: Booleans, floats, integers and strings.
Respectively, the bad type, make your mama sad type, make your girlfriend mad type, and might seduce your dad type."
