I don’t know what stage of enlightenment this is, but I no longer am bothered by seeing inaccurate descriptions of things in the tech world that I have definitive knowledge about. I don’t even bother to correct. I am the tree that bends in the wind. All things in time. This too shall pass.

the year is 2143, people customarily greet each other with a saying of long-forgotten origin, "let me share my screen", eliciting the enigmatic yet empathic response, "I can see your screen".

Need a timeline cleanse? Here's an article about the daughter (and inspiration for "Sal" in Blueberries for Sal) reading her father Robert McCloskey's work to an adoring intergenerational audience in a small public library in Maine. NYT feature (gift link, no paywall). #nature #kidlit #Maine #illustration #ChildrensBooks #libraries

The Digital Services Act went live in the EU on Friday. The below is a handy list of the most visible changes Europeans will see

1. Chronological views are now a required option in social media apps including TikTok.

2. It’s easier to report harmful content.

3. You’ll get an explanation when your post is moderated and taken down.

4. You can report fake products on marketplaces like Amazon.

5. Teens under 18 won’t see targeted ads based on their interests.

#SilentSunday #sunrise. Emerald Isle, North Carolina.

Thought I'd do an #introduction
I'm Ellie, a #ceramicist specialising in #birds and #wildlife
I am #actuallyautistic and trying to be brave by branching out into the big wide world a little more.
Figured the best introduction would be one showing off my newest piece out of the kiln, this tree full of the #owls of the UK.

Starting at noon eastern! The thing I’ve been working on!

28 artists finished each others abandoned tracks, and we’ll all hear them for the first time together. come hang out and hear some great tunes :3

Material for how to study for STEM/biology university courses?

I'm looking for any and all references and tips on this topic.

I teach Intro to Neuroscience; typically to freshman/sophomores. Their experience in this class can be important for their next steps. But some students show up better prepared than others and we want to find better ways to rectify that. It's a really hard problem.

As an experiment this year, we are tacking on an optional weekly "bonus session" for any students who feel they could benefit from a bit more instruction/practice wrapping their head around what we are expecting of them (and how to achieve it). Things like: we don't just want students to memorize facts but also generalize knowledge and solve problems - but what does that look like and how do you prepare for it? I'm looking for material to develop that type of 'how to study' curriculum, including material that targets a diversity of learning styles and approaches.
