Moore had to go, but the guy I really want gone is Manuel. I don’t blame him for the Harbaugh noise or Howard flaming out, but he should have been fired over Pearson. Now he met with Moore alone? My dude, you are a senior executive in a $16 billion enterprise. You may not vibe your way through shit.

I agree this person wasted money on that class, because they never learned WHY poetry IS important to what they do - not for arbitrary scansion, but because it teaches you to be a better, more flexible, speaker and writer.
The *value* of college is expanding your mind and challenging how you think.

If you are providing me with an education that is low utility in the world then it’s a disservice. My composition class spent four weeks on poetry. I’m sorry, but that only would’ve been useful if I wanted to be a poet. I don’t need to know iambic pentameter in order to be a victim advocate.

Holy moley. I knew grade inflation was a thing, but the cutoff for top 25% for the school of arts and sciences at Duke?
3.94. And it’s not a 4.3 scale.

There isn’t actually a neat quote-dunk for the lesson here.
LESLEY STAHL: You contributed to the toxic culture. You were out there pounding, insulting people
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: You've contributed to it as well
STAHL: I want you to respond to what you have done in terms of insulting people
MTG: I'd like for you to respond to that

there's this interesting thing where certain pre-genai text sounds like genai and the common denominator is that it's a well-educated non-native speaker who is being excessively formal and/or kissing your ass
me: why does literally every AI tool glaze me, I'm just asking a question about documentation
friend: That's a really perceptive question - I think it gets at the heart of the current problem with LLMs! If you'd like, I can break down the origins and implications of this particular problem

I miss shitposting and occasional earnest discussion with a community of interesting people. Somewhere along the way we lost the fundamental truth that social media is just after-midnight dorm discussion for grownups, and we all still have to do physics lab together tomorrow.
