These people have spent years saying the cancellation of college lectures was a slippery slope to totalitarianism. Now that marginalized minorities are losing their rights — literally the Niemöller poem — it's just an oopsie with no broader implications.

Hey man sorry to hear about all your political turmoil. Would it help if I scrolled around on the computer all day and drove myself insane?

I find this truly disturbing.
For almost all of us, these sorts of bots will be an annoyance at worst.
But if we've correctly gleaned the intent behind them, we're not the target. The target is socially isolated people who don't get interactions organically.
In a polarized nation, one point of agreement deserves more attention: Young adults say they feel woefully unprepared for life in the work force, and employers say they’re right. In a survey by Gallup and the Walton Family Foundation of more than 4,000 members of Gen Z, 49 percent of respondents said they did not feel prepared for the future. Employers complain that young hires lack initiative, communication skills, problem-solving abilities and resilience.
There’s a reason the system isn’t serving people well, and it goes beyond the usual culprits of social media and Covid. Many recent graduates aren’t able to set targets, take initiative, figure things out and deal with setbacks — because in school and at home they were too rarely afforded any agency.

So: Instead of “Here is an example of a good essay. Please go write one,” the teacher might say, “Here is an example of a good essay. What is your goal for this first draft?” Rather than simply being told, students reflect on what they need to accomplish and develop a plan to make it happen. Teachers monitor and coach them along the way.
Some terminal Ted Talk Brain in the NYT today:
If it's true that millions of young people is not prepared for the workforce, we're probably going to need a more meaningful solution than teachers slightly changing the phrasing of their classroom instruction.

I remember reading this when the book came out and thinking "Nah, way too pessimistic".
Now the incoming US Health Secretary doesn't think HIV causes AIDS.
I am unlikely to last 20 days but this would be my day 1 pick, for sure.

Yeah, there's meteorological spring and astronomical spring. But when your cats start getting up to so much shit that you can't keep up, you know the season has truly arrived.
