I've noticed that some of my students seem to be more motivated by the income potential and really don't enjoy the work itself. Given the upheaval due to AI, I wouldn't be surprised if that kind of student disappears.

If only we were so wise back in 2024.

I worked in software development. Trust me, there were plenty of autistic folks in that field. We knew they were different. It didn't matter. Now I teach software engineering, and the percentages haven't changed . Giving a name to something doesn't make it more prevalent.

I recently saw someone post that the stuff Zuck comes up with shows has no friends. I'm starting to believe that to be true.

I'd like to believe Jesus is just gathering his strength before choking the shit out of him.

I'm sure that will stop them.

Still worth doing, regardless.

"Scotch and Asparagus!" is my favorite line from this strip.

I ride my bike on a mixed-use canal path and people are blasting by on e-bikes well over 20 mph (32 kph). With so many folks walking along wearing headphones/earbuds, it's just a matter of time before someone gets hit. There's no posted speed limit that I've ever seen, and enforcement relies on people calling 911 and complaining. Technology always outpaces regulation.

I am honestly surprised the FDA did anything here. Whoop should just wait a bit and see if there's any follow-up.
