It’s funny / not funny that Buckminster Fuller’s “Education Automation” (1962) boils down to: plan for co-ed desegregated colleges that can use electronic media to provide high quality lectures so faculty can focus on more individualized learning.

Couldn’t figure out why there was so much buzz about “mario day” then realized there’s a feature film marketing budget behind it.

The Grammarly situation is why it's always right and good to yell at companies. Some companies will try to sell anything. They count on being able to get away with it. Never let them.

Grammarly Is Facing a Class Action Lawsuit Over Its AI ‘Expert Review’ Feature The feature, which Grammarly shut down Wednesday, presented editing suggestions as if they came from established authors and academics—without their consent.

I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent.

State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes.

Spain could be the only EU country to beat energy price hikes Spain spent the last six years investing heavily in wind and solar energy, leading to some of the cheapest power prices in Europe.

“I'd prefer to be dependent on China for the import of solar panels & batteries, than I would, for oil & gas coming from the Gulf, and I'll tell you why… if I buy that solar panel, that battery, that wind turbine, that transformer, I buy it once every 25 years. I don't have to buy it every day”
