Narcissists always gather in flocks. They also turn on each other in a spectacular way.
Is anyone else seeing an unusual number of folks rejecting job offers?

Whereas previous generations were primarily consumers of media, there is an emerging expectation that individuals will participate in the creation of the digital media landscape as much as they consume in that landscape.
If you include "free to try" sites in you list of "free" sites, you are despicable ... or maybe just annoying.

While “struggle” is a necessary component of learning, too much leads to frustration which inhibits learning.
“We haven’t been able to do it, but AI can.”

If an adult is controlling it all, then learning is not happening.
Just because you can doesn’t mean you should. Remember that when using data.
Just because you’ve made lots of money you are not an expert on what schools should do.

It’s possible to improve test scores without improving capacity for students to understand and use the knowledge tested.
Importance and ease of measurement are almost always inversely proportional.
“Let’s have AI vet search results.” Sure. There isno chance that could go wrong.
Remember when everyone freaked out that Channel One wanted to show commercials in schools. Now, everyone pulls up YouTube regularly.
Conspiracies are real, but not every event is the result of one.
