@SoLInTheWild Have you seen the nation's test scores?

@cmegg Please share link to data showing High Tech High has closed the opportunity gap.

A student-centered piece of advice about inquiry-based learning: the knowledge you spent a few days building in students by having them read an article or chapter before sending them off on a two-week role-play inquiry project, you know the one where they pretend to be a biologist, historian, or geographer, is nowhere near enough. We are constantly trivializing expert-level knowledge by assuming students can meaningfully engage in inquiry after only brief exposure to content and believing they will simply pick up the rest along the way. Experts can do that. Novices cannot. A few days spent reading an article or chapter does not provide enough background knowledge for students to authentically think and work like a economist or chemist. Here’s what you should do instead: spend those two weeks building far more knowledge. Give students repeated exposure to the concepts, vocabulary, examples, explanations, and models within the discipline. Two weeks spent building accessible knowledge in long-term memory through explicit instruction will help students think and inquire more like a mathematician, poet, or engineer than two weeks spent pretending to be one ever will.

@SoLInTheWild To refute one school's data with data from the US is a choice that betrays your argument

@cmegg Closed the gap? Have you seen this countries reading and math scores?

@SoLInTheWild High Tech has closed the opportunity gap as well. 1950s instructional models aren't on their way back Thankfully.

@SoLInTheWild Never heard of this. High Tech High in SD has student learn physics by building rockets and making fuel and going to the Mojave Desert and launching them. Sitting in a classroom for direct instruction might pale in comparison in both content moved to long term memory but....

The list of players I’d trade 10 overall even in a mediocre draft is short. And Dexter Lawrence ain’t on it. Not even close.

@Nick_Walker5 @pauldehnerjr Swing tackle, 3rd CB, LB and replacing Ossai at DE 1. Lots to still fill. I'd prefer CB3 at 2md rd

@pauldehnerjr Draft Rodriguez or Golday in the 2nd, add literally any veteran LB and I’ll say the front office absolutely did their job for once.

#Bengals defensive reboot: In NT Dexter Lawrence 3T Jonathan Allen Edge Boye Mafe S Bryan Cook S Kyle Dugger Draft picks Out Edge Trey Hendrickson Edge Joseph Ossai LB Logan Wilson DL Cam Sample S Geno Stone CB Cam Taylor-Britt CB Marco Wilson S/ST Tycen Anderson Not subtle.

@TheConstantRead @educator4ever36 +1. Same in Western MA

@educator4ever36 Awful here in MA. State isn’t giving towns enough funding so the towns are spread thin.

To all of the teachers, particularly in union states, getting these enormous pay raises (which you deserve but your district can’t afford) be ready for some serious reductions in force for the 26-27 school year. It’s going to be even worse 27-28 because many districts are putting a band aid on it now but that won’t last long term.

And, on the other hand, I just heard Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings do a version of “Brokedown Palace” that brought tears to my eyes and I remembered: There is nothing is as good as the music of The Grateful Dead

@SophieHaigney Who can post a video?

@EvanLuthra Jevons Paradox is the counter.

🚨RESEARCHERS JUST MATHEMATICALLY PROVED THAT AI LAYOFFS WILL DESTROY THE ECONOMY.. AND EVERY CEO ALREADY KNOWS IT.. BUT NONE OF THEM CAN STOP.. Two researchers from UPenn and Boston University just published a paper called "The AI Layoff Trap".. They proved something terrifying.. Every company replacing workers with AI is also firing its own customers.. Every laid-off employee is someone who used to spend money.. When enough people lose their jobs.. Nobody can afford to buy anything.. And the companies that fired everyone go bankrupt selling products to an economy with no purchasing power.. Every CEO can see this coming.. The math is obvious.. Fire workers.. Lose customers.. Lose revenue.. Collapse.. But here's the trap.. No company can afford to stop.. If you don't automate.. Your competitor will.. They cut costs.. Undercut your prices.. Steal your market share.. And you die anyway.. So every company automates.. Knowing it's collectively suicidal.. Because the alternative is dying alone while everyone else survives.. It's a Prisoner's Dilemma.. And the researchers proved it mathematically.. The numbers are already stacking up.. Block cut nearly half its 10,000 employees this year.. CEO Jack Dorsey said AI made those roles unnecessary and that "within the next year, the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion".. Salesforce replaced 4,000 customer support agents with AI.. Goldman Sachs deployed an AI coder that lets one senior engineer do the work of a five-person team.. Over 100,000 tech workers were laid off in 2025 alone.. AI was cited as the primary driver in more than half the cases.. 80% of US workers hold jobs with tasks susceptible to AI automation.. And here's what should scare policymakers.. The researchers tested every proposed solution.. Universal Basic Income.. Doesn't fix it.. It raises living standards but doesn't change a single company's incentive to automate.. Capital income taxes.. Don't fix it.. They change profit levels but not the per-task decision to replace a human.. Worker equity and profit sharing.. Narrows the gap but can't close it.. Collective bargaining.. Can't fix it.. Because automating is a dominant strategy.. No voluntary agreement between companies is self-enforcing.. Only one thing works.. A Pigouvian automation tax.. A per-task charge that forces every company to pay for the demand it destroys when it fires a worker.. The researchers call it a "Red Queen effect".. Better AI doesn't solve the problem.. It makes it worse.. Because every company sees a bigger market share gain from automating faster than rivals.. But at the end.. Everyone automates equally.. The gains cancel out.. And the only thing left is more destroyed demand.. The paper's conclusion is devastating.. This isn't a transfer from workers to company owners.. Both sides lose.. Workers lose their income.. Companies lose their customers.. It's a deadweight loss that harms everyone.. And no market force can break the cycle.. The AI layoff trap isn't a prediction.. It's already happening.. And the math says it won't stop on its own.

@Smariam1984 @DougHeye Not if you've worked there for the past 30+ years. First time it hasn't been offered

@DougHeye Well you are in luck because there weren’t any masses held today. You are super Catholic so I’m sure you knew that.

As a Catholic, I’ve never needed my workplace to host a Mass. There are places called churches for that.

@BTCsusin48 @winstonzin Prove it

@winstonzin Dan Buettner is a fraud. His blue zone theory of veganism is bull shit. Blue zones eat lots of red meat, fish, pork, they live in a community. He peddles the fraud of the seventh day Adventist church. Notable fraudster are Ellen G. White, John Harvey Kellogg.

This is Dan Buettner. He spent 20 years traveling the world studying the lifestyles of people who live past 100. • Okinawa, Japan • Sardinia, Italy • Ikaria, Greece • Nicoya, Costa Rica • Loma Linda, California He found 9 habits they all share: 1. They don't work out

@MajorTomHeuchan Whole first set smokes. Big Railroad is 🔥

Deer Creek ‘91 Jack Straw… that’s it.. that’s the tweet.

@BenjaminSolak x.com/onyxodds/statu…

Strongly agree! But I’m not gonna defend Herbert’s great film all the time and then go mum when he has a bad game. He did in this one.

Worst Justin Herbert game I've seen in a while

@merkin_muffly @theStevenRuiz x.com/gacpodcast17/s…

@cmegg @theStevenRuiz Correct, 40% pressure rate, slow receivers, terrible play calling, he's literally the only weapon on a terrible offense, dragging them to 11 wins.

Awesome Josh Allen game. Decision-making had to be on point and was.

@BenjaminSolak x.com/getnickwright/…

The Chargers are sliding all over the field man.

Quarterbacks to lose their first three career playoff starts (since 2000) Matt Ryan Matthew Stafford Andy Dalton Justin Herbert

@merkin_muffly @theStevenRuiz x.com/barstoolsports…

@Herbaughszn @KarimElNemr3 @BenjaminSolak Read Ruiz's piece. He is Herbert's biggest fanboy and disagrees with you

@KarimElNemr3 @BenjaminSolak Show me the plays his receivers were open
