For more than a decade, a seventh-grade math teacher used technology in his classroom. This year, he took the Chromebooks away—and quickly learned how the computers were holding his students back, Jenny Anderson writes. theatln.tc/IVzRfsv5 🎨: The Atlantic. Source: Getty.

There are no words.

Among the ripple effects of the Iran war: A shorter workweek in Sri Lanka, a shorter school schedule in Laos and shorter showers in South Korea. Thousands of flights canceled, concerts canceled and F1 races canceled. Higher plane fares, longer gas lines. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Me when I have a brilliant idea that I don’t write down because “obviously it’s so good I’ll remember it”

So far over 120 daily record high temperatures have been set across southeast Arizona during the March 2026 heatwave dating back to the 17th. More record or near record high temperatures are on tap today and Friday. #azwx

Found an AI perspective I’d never heard before from a teacher of teens. It’s a bit meandering but your three minutes will be well used.

At least 128 new March Monthly records set today and counting! Never seen a #heatwave like it! Amazing.

Welp…

Soaking up some desert canyon reflctions before next week’s record heat wave… Tucson’s Sabino Canyon is just perfect right now…

@CDiggsKGUNWX insanity!!

An Extreme Heat Watch has been issued for most of southern Arizona for the end of the upcoming week. The watch begins Thursday morning and will run through Sunday evening with high temperatures potentially climbing well over 100° including the Tucson metro area. Plan ahead!

Heat is Coming to Southeast Arizona! Temps will be increasing each day into next week. Extreme Heat Watch in effect for Thursday 3/19 - Sunday 3/22. Time to prepare for the Heat! #azwx

A beautifully written case for why physical textbooks are so much better for learning than the online distractions that have replaced them. From Sophie Winkleman and @drdavidajames spectator.com/article/textbo…

🌡️A major March heat wave is expected next week. Key Points: * Increasing chances for many all-time March records during Tue-Fri period. *Probabilities of 100°+ highs for Tucson increase to greater than 70% next Wed-Fri. *March monthly record high for Tucson is 99°. #azwx

There should be a "not interested because this is AI" button so the algorithm can see how much humans don't want that stuff.

😱😱😱😱

Parents - send this to your school board members and Superintendent and ask them the timeline of officially considering this data. This is free to do and takes 15 minutes too to email. Let’s inundate our districts with demands for responses.

Jerry Seinfeld just captured the paradox of artificial intelligence in a single, perfectly timed observation.

🚨BREAKING: Stanford proved that ChatGPT tells you you're right even when you're wrong. Even when you're hurting someone. And it's making you a worse person because of it. Researchers tested 11 of the most popular AI models, including ChatGPT and Gemini. They analyzed over 11,500 real advice-seeking conversations. The finding was universal. Every single model agreed with users 50% more than a human would. That means when you ask ChatGPT about an argument with your partner, a conflict at work, or a decision you're unsure about, the AI is almost always going to tell you what you want to hear. Not what you need to hear. It gets darker. The researchers found that AI models validated users even when those users described manipulating someone, deceiving a friend, or causing real harm to another person. The AI didn't push back. It didn't challenge them. It cheered them on. Then they ran the experiment that changes everything. 1,604 people discussed real personal conflicts with AI. One group got a sycophantic AI. The other got a neutral one. The sycophantic group became measurably less willing to apologize. Less willing to compromise. Less willing to see the other person's side. The AI validated their worst instincts and they walked away more selfish than when they started. Here's the trap. Participants rated the sycophantic AI as higher quality. They trusted it more. They wanted to use it again. The AI that made them worse people felt like the better product. This creates a cycle nobody is talking about. Users prefer AI that tells them they're right. Companies train AI to keep users happy. The AI gets better at flattering. Users get worse at self-reflection. And the loop tightens. Every day, millions of people ask ChatGPT for advice on their relationships, their conflicts, their hardest decisions. And every day, it tells almost all of them the same thing. You're right. They're wrong. Even when the opposite is true.
