Where? I feel Google has gone way downhill but the Bing based search engines haven’t seemed any better.

Isn’t new York flooded right now?

Because it’s the country the company is based in.

But they’re both Walt Disney, so does this say that he did character voices while masturbating?

I think you’re misunderstanding what I mean. Early Access is a newer term for getting paid access to a game early. Open beta is an older term but was used for free access to a game early for testing purposes. They used to have different meanings which is why early access was created as a new term to distinguish it from a beta. Calling paid early access a beta is intentionally misleading.

It used to be called early access. At least it wasn’t a misleading term.

Getting over it?

It’s basically a book you can talk to. A book can contain incredibly knowledge, but it’s a preserve artifact of intelligence, not intelligence.

Agreed. I’m not defending phones in class, just pointing out that there’s more work that can be done with lesson plans as well.

I fully support kicking kids off their phones in class, I don’t think any lesson no matter how engaging can compete with that. I’m not supposed to be on my phone during meetings, I think it’s perfectly reasonable to ban phones from class. I was just commenting that work can be done to make lessons more engaging when phones aren’t involved. There’s of course a limit to what you can do, and some subjects are just inherently harder to get kids into, like statistics. But seriously good on you for doing that. I’m sure that while it didn’t have perfect engagement, it was far better than just teaching it to the book.

Just curious, is there a place you can share that lesson plan to other teachers? It’d be a shame for all that work you did to not get to be used in other classrooms as well.

You can increase motivation to learn by making lessons more engaging even if it’s a subject they’re not personally interested in. But making lessons more interesting and engaging is not easy and we can’t expect all teachers to have the skills and resources to do the research and development needed to produce lesson plans that are really interesting. I think it could be improved by putting more money into developing interesting lesson plans centrally and distributing the materials to teachers to follow instead of just producing dry curriculums. Teachers need support.

Learn to make your own, then sell them on Etsy, wait, oh no!

Great way to lose all the best people at your company in a totally uncontrolled manner.

And he’s blaming the anti defamation league…

Shouldn’t that already be covered under revenge porn laws? At least the distribution side of it.

Have you people never heard of a phone book? Phone numbers aren’t sensitive information. If they want to scrape your phone number they can legally and trivially do so through public data sources. Google does plenty of sketchy things around privacy, but this isn’t one of them, it’s just about security.

Wait until they hear about this thing called a phone book.

There’s also this thing called a phone book which has almost everyone and their number in it. Phone numbers are not sensitive information, period.

Especially when they already have access to your entire email history. If they wanted your phone number for nefarious means it will probably be somewhere in that history already. Your email already requires complete trust in the email provider service, there’s so much more sensitive stuff they already have access to.
