Reddit: "My friend is in university and taking a history class. The professor is using ChatGPT to write essays on the history topics and the students need to mark up its essays and point out where ChatGPT is wrong and correct it."

Honestly, this is great! The students learn to check sources, discover that ChatGPT is unreliable, *and* can't use it to generate essay question answers for them, all at the same time!
@iain Will be listening to some more. Thanks.
@iain Well, that was lovely.
@mo "right".

A bit of folk horror. Might have benefited from a tighter edit, though. https://micro.blog/books/9781529375466

@stuartgibson It's not the tea itself is the problem. It's the later frequent processing of the outcome.
I've had too many mugs of tea today.

@bazscott 1Password helps a little with this.
@mo Attention to detail, all the way.
Apple’s family sharing-ask to buy feature for child accounts is probably the most frustrating software thing I have to regularly deal with. Every couple of weeks it just stops sending requests to my devices.

terf lady wizard books
There's a fascinating thing about Harry Potter which was pointed out to me a while back and now I can't unsee. There's an underlying, repeated message throughout the books: "Systems exist as they always have and cannot be changed. Problems are only solved one individual at a time."
I think this is interesting compared to a book series which ultimately becomes about systems and the power of individuals to operate within and influence them, Pratchett's City Watch series. 🧵

It is important to note that the middle of Earth's inner core is INCREDIBLY dense.

Hogwarts Legacy
"It's just a game, it's ridiculous to make such a big deal out of this"
Exactly. True. Here is a Hogwarts Legacy 🧵on why IT'S NOT ABOUT THE GODDAMN GAME.
I'll break it down, but it's about what it takes to fight fascism and how much of the left is deeply unprepared.

@bazscott Good stuff. All the best for it.
