A rogue AI enrolls in your online class, then publicly shames you when you remove it. This just happened in a dev forum. Are we ready if it happens to our courses?

Using well-chosen public sources, i let NotebookLM and Kimi K2.5 generate a presentation on a subject, amazing quality and very few errors. Good inspiration for the real presentation i will make myself. AI is not only creating "slop", we have to really start more research about how we incorporate AI in our work-processes in a responsible way, how we don't become "dumber", maintain skills, learning and human creativity 🤔
Few know the lengths to which the Trump administration is paving the way -- and the part it's playing
-- in deregulating a highly regulated industry
to ensure that AI data centers have the energy they need to shape the future of America and the world

Wow. Our neighbors really want to learn about Internet privacy.
My local neighborhood group invited me to make a presentation on privacy at their monthly meeting. I was a little hesitant at first. I have done a lot of classes and seminars in corporate conference settings over the years. But these were my friends and neighbors and most of them are not technical in matters of security and privacy. I was not sure I could give a talk that wasn’t totally nerdy and boring. But I could see an…
Ma présentation au Capitole du libre 2025 - la guerre des navigateurs

I loved @jasonclark.bsky.social 's #FF2025 'problem statement':
'We were given access to a weirdly confident intern that can’t explain how they got their answers.
It is a seamless interface that breaks search interaction retrieval patterns.'
Apparently some universities have started using mostly-AI tought courses. And are surprised students don't apprrciate them fully:
“There are some useful things in the presentation. But it’s like, 5% is useful nuggets, and a lot is repetition. There is some gold in the bottom of this pan. But presumably we could get the gold ourselves, by asking ChatGPT.”
Thus far OLF seems to be going well, (at least from a back of the house standpoint). Got my meshtastic display / presentation setup with a working live node to demonstrate communication and environmental sensor support. A good number of folks asking about the tech, which is always fun!
Oh yeah, and the occasional cosplayer in full attire wandering through is good entertainment too.

Mandleduck from zbd has a presentation on the history of gaming in bitcoin.
Original bitcoin nodes had a half built poker game built in, though removed later.
SatoshiDice was an early betting game, just betting on random numbers from the hash nonce.
7 years ago Mandleduck made saru tobi, an iOS game with bitcoin rewards which was initially accepted but the decision reverted by apple. 1 cent transactions on chain was never going to scale anyway.
Collectable gaming cards on chain were a fashion for a while.
The early things failed in 2018 when transaction fees spiked, and fees became more than gaming rewards could be. Most games moved to ETH, till it to became expensive.
Lightning network is more suitable than on chain transactions but solana and dedicated chains still rule really.
Still today gamers mostly reject bitcoin as a scam and of course app stores don't allow payments outside their own system. So things remain tricky.

- For those with severe tinnitus -
I'm really not very good at speaking into a camera, and this is far from an excellent presentation. At the same time, when I was in the throes of severe tinnitus, I longed to find accounts of people who had experienced a type as intense and reactive as mine, yet had learned, to some degree, to live with it. So I offer this spontaneous testimony just in case it helps anyone else…🙏

"But as you can see, the programs do come at a cost... we estimate about $27.4m a year goes to the administrative costs and also the projected fare revenue reduction."
I'm waiting for the slide where they estimate the much higher cost of all the unmetered parking spaces across the city, and of turning off meters at 6pm and on Sundays. I'm sure that'll definitely be later in this presentation, right?

The debate regarding the “Goldwater rule” has intensified
following President Trump’s recent rambling presentation in Pennsylvania
(Trump rails on affordability ‘hoax’ and flings racist attacks in rally-style speech, 10 December).
As a physician with decades of experience in health policy, I believe the current discourse misses a vital distinction:
the difference between prohibited diagnosis and legitimate observation.
The Goldwater rule was designed to prevent …
