@mlanger@mastodon.world @markmetz@sfba.social @clew@ecoevo.social I value education plenty. My gripe is that we're not investing the time and money into making materials and teaching accessible, compared to surveilling and explicitly distrusting students. That doesn't build a relationship, that doesn't build confidence, and that doesn't encourage anyone to collaborate with educators to learn more - it just treats education like an obligation. Wouldn't you resist being obligated to learn by someone else?

@mlanger@mastodon.world @markmetz@sfba.social @clew@ecoevo.social The thing is, they do know better. Talk to any kid of just about any age and they Know that skipping over homework doesn't help them. They're either making tradeoffs that we're not privy to, or they're struggling and don't feel they can approach the teacher for support, or some combination of each. For the small fraction of those who genuinely don't care, why continue forcing someone who truly doesn't want to learn the material?

@mlanger@mastodon.world @markmetz@sfba.social @clew@ecoevo.social There is: Don't. If the student wants to rob themselves of an education and skill set, why do we stop them? Are we really deferring to colleges as capability verifiers?

@soatok@furry.engineer at least in the US, they've already neutered broadcast "because of the children" https://www.mprnews.org/story/2009/04/28/court-upholds-fcc-rules-on-swearing-on-live-tv

@cadey@pony.social I will say, I just ran "pkg upgrade" and got the new kernel. Like, ten mins after your post.

@mlanger @markmetz @clew that's an invitation for spyware. Most "ai detector" systems do exactly that. You Must use their garbage tool to write the paper, you can't do speech to text, etc. God forbid you want to do nice typesetting. (I wrote a lot of my papers in TeX and pdf output them.)

@dangoodin the interface for an OS is fundamentally nonhuman. You click buttons and launch various interfaces to do the things. The chat interface replicates exactly how we engage with other humans when we're not local to each other. If it weren't for texting with friends replacing human conversation, this wouldn't be a problem. But now it is.

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online @SciPolTech@mastodon.online @ghouston@mamot.fr @oblomov@sociale.network @libreoffice@fosstodon.org people are "lying" because they're discounting that their friend groups are the ones who educate them. "There's this new site called Facebook, let me help you sign up." Followed by "everyone can see the message you just wrote. 😳 Let me show you how to..." etc. Expecting zero friction is exhausting.

@alavi@techhub.social @danirabbit@mastodon.online you missed the part where it’s explicitly Not privacy-friendly. No matter how many blockers I add, the webapp still has the option to “phone home” and do whatever they can with my data.
