This teacher sucks. If her students are discoursing this way, then either she is not modeling academic discourse or refuses to hold her kids accountable. That’s a teacher practice problem, not a younger generation issue. Especially with a rich text like “The Great Gatsby!”

We are literally doomed American High School English Teacher reads real responses from her student’s assignment after reading The Great Gatsby We have a serious education issue in America and if we don’t address it, we have a horrible future ahead of us These kind of responses are to be expected because 12th grade reading results in 2024 in America showed that reading levels right now the lowest they’ve ever been since the assessment began in 1992

We need to eat the billionaires because there is no way to hold him accountable. Tax them down to the level of democracy.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman believes people owning RAM is wasteful, and that it belongs in data centers instead. "From a global allocation perspective, actually, it’s quite terrible to have everyone have a bunch of the world’s limited supply of DRAM sitting in their own computer."

Episode 4 of #soldastory reminds me of my early days teaching for a charter in rural Arkansas and making it one of the top schools in the state. I've been chasing that high since leaving.
