You fruitist!! How dare you to be so prejudiced towards oranges? I’m going to report and block you right now!

Found this on the language nerds page and really thought it was worth sharing 😀

Everyone is sharing the worldcoin video, but I won't.

Look. Not everyone is going to make it. The point made by 1984 is the same point made by Ordinary Men: most people will love the regime. Most people will do anything to comply, to not stick out, to do what everyone else does—no matter how ridiculous.

The solution is deceivingly simple: don't try to change other people. Focus on yourself and how you spend your time.

Opt out. Don't feed the beast. Concentrate your time, energy, and attention on the alternatives represented by #bitcoin and #nostr. Become as resilient as you can. Become un-ruggable. Ignore the noise.

Now, how differently should we think about this system with the research support that Peter has given us? I’d argue, not much differently. It’s not that there’s no evidence, and it’s not that he’s playing loose with the facts. It’s just that the evidence is weak. It doesn’t support big generalizations. You wouldn’t want to bet the bank on it.

Here’s why:

He doesn’t measure learning at all, only engagement.

He only measures engagement for vertical whiteboards and maybe homework, not for any other component of his system.

He counts teacher uptake as evidence of student engagement.

The measurements he reports are all for older kids.

We don’t know how he selected the groups he measured.

We have no idea where the percentages he reports are coming from in his book.

In fact none of what he did to arrive at his results is particularly transparent, which is probably why his four papers are published in books and conference proceedings, but not journals.

Thanks, I enjoy sharing a little bit of our lives with my nostr friends, plus I've seen a few folks new to nostr say that all we talk about is bitcoin. So I try to fill in a bit of that gap, although I do love to talk about bitcoin too🙂.

If a book had a decent number of diagrams and charts, would you want the audio version or would you want the physical/ebook (visual version)?

Secondary question- if those charts and diagrams are described in the audio version by someone who knows what they are talking about, would that affect the answer?

People on Nostr are so nice. I love you guys and girls.

Oh what a day, I'm beat. We spent the afternoon trying to clean out and organize one of the sheds. So much stuff! And its 110 degrees in there, so not fun. We got a start, but a long way to go before we're done. We'll be making a run to the resale shop to donate a bunch of usable stuff, then to the county dump to take a bunch of unusable stuff. It never ends, and I definitely need my electrolytes today. But I'm happy that we started this project, because it bugs me when things start to get cluttered. On another note, the clouds sure have been pretty lately. I took this pic just now. Yall have a good evening nostr friends. #grownostr #countrylife #homesteading #bnbstr

I love movies and I watch a lot of them. There's only been two that come to mind that were so bad that I couldn't finish either of them.

Napoleon Dynamite and They Clone Tyrone.
