@robbienorlyn I still don't know any of her music.
In case anyone wondered, you do not have to boost every post in a thread. Boost one, mention that is a great thread and move on.
@yoused No fixing stupid. Not even with duct tape.

"Conducted by California State University Channel Islands economics professor Dr. Bryan Tomlin, the study, titled “#Jewish and #Israeli #Americans Face #Discrimination in the Job Market,” found that job seekers with names that “sound” Jewish and resumes that “signal” a likely Jewish background needed to send 24.2 percent more inquiries to potential employers to gain an equal number of positive responses as non-Jews. For Israelis, the number was higher, with 39 percent more inquiries required for receiving equal responses."

Don't we all. That's the problem: both views are valid.
In the short term, local context, you want an AI tool, of course, whether you're a teacher, parent, student, policymaker....no brainer.
In the long term, national/global scope, you want a broader systemic reform, which the adoption of AI tools disincentives further.
This is what tears my heart apart.
@MrBerard I'd really like to rebuild the system from the bottom up starting with K-3. @edutooters

TIL about Thiaroye massacre where hundreds of African soldiers who helped defeat the Nazis in 1944 were shot to death by the French Army because they rightfully asked for their salary.

Trump Term 1 Israel-Palestine policy boiled down to “sure, Bibi, whatever you want.”
Could see settlements in Gaza and partial West Bank annexation with US acceptance, even approval.
Critics who denounced Biden’s policy as giving Israel “a blank check” are about to see what one actually looks like.

@MrBerard 😂 I wish I'd had it when I was in the classroom. @edutooters
@MrBerard Have you seen Writable from HMH? Best use of AI I've ever seen in the education space, and I'm not just saying that as a trainer for the platform. @edutooters

@tofugolem At this point Conservative Christian opinions should be met with air horns. All they want is to control and persecute others, anything they say are distractions meant to waste time and energy.

I wrote about how Twitter and Threads prove that algorithms are a bad way to curate social networks that need to be timely and reliable. And how Bluesky benefits from turning the job back to humans. https://www.fastcompany.com/91239259/bluesky-starter-packs-threads-twitter-for-you-algorithm
