>They're also moving toward more in-person writing. Instead of long essays, shorter writing segments as part of the test

Why did this ever go away? That was a completely regular part of college a decade plus ago.


>Makes me wonder how much the reviewers actually read the text.

How many of the college students voting have years of ai use under their belt, where ai voice itself has shaped and influenced their stylistic choices of language preference?


Still says

>Independence: We are fully founder-owned and not externally funded. Our priorities align with the long-term health of the project and its users.


Costco isnt losing $10. They can sell gas at cost to run a gas station if they want to. They break even and get people there instead of a normal gas station.


When you do introduce some video, which is easy to slip into around 18 months, there is tons of good stuff.

Stillwater, Shape Island, Slumberkins, Interrupting Chicken, Not a Box, Duck and Goose, Frog and Toad, Get Rolling with Otis and Snoopy are all on Apple TV.

Tumble Leaf, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, Creative Galaxy, Stinky and Dirty, Fireman Sam Classic are on Prime.

PBS still exists for now.

Caitie's Classroom / Super Simple is on Youtube, Prime, and Spotify.


Thanks for taking the time to leave this comment. Bookmarked your message for… much later.


Stillwater you can probably start at birth, if you need something to put you to sleep, which you will. Kiddo can listen without watching.


Apple TV is an available option though. Saying "screen time" vs "low effort stimulating content" muddies the conversation around it being the screen itself and not the contents of the media.


>kids that age, don't learn from screens.

I'll disagree a bit, although arguably its mostly the audio. Good calm shows with wide vocabularies are similar to reading. Watching Stillwater is quite a bit different than watching Paw Patrol.

1 is quite a bit different than 2 though. It's good this differentiated between 1 and 1.5.


>benign animations

But why. Why are we stimulating with mindless color movement, like a modern lava lamp?

You can tell which kids shows care and which dont by how much unnecessary movement they introduce into the background plate. Some have a breathing and swaying so every element is in motion, others have stillness so your eyes and attention are drawn to the actual action.


Part of the problem is the people reacting to the data. Cops coming at an innocent someone, guns drawn, because of database and human error. If that person weren't so calm and level headed in the moment, when they were attacked by confused and mistaken aggressors, would they still be alive?

I don't disagree: bad policing is a terrible issue. That does not mean we should prevent investigating stolen vehicles because a human might enter the characters incorrectly. I don't even understand how this story happened:

> In fact, four other 34 ## DTM cars were being tracked around Minnesota that week, according to Officer Ganshyn

Maybe we need even more AI, because I think Claude would probably flag this as goofy. No human involved thought that it was wild they would stop something like 100 or 1,296 vehicles?


>No human involved thought that it was wild they would stop something like 100 or 1,296 vehicles?

Because each city or county is doing its whole thing.

Which comes back a bit to, it's one thing for my county to be tracking its residents, but should officers in Texas have carte blanche? If anything, the local county should have to "release" before search results are opened up to someone foreign. My officers should be protecting me from invasions abroad.


could you run the backup slower?

Google quickly found me "NVMe M.2 Duplicator with Cooling Fan, 8TB Dual-Bay Offline Clone Enclosure, 10Gbps M.2 SSD M Key Hard Drives Enclosure, for NVMe SSDs PCIe Size 2230/2242/2260/2280"
