I just cancelled my Adobe licence after many years as a customer.

The new terms give Adobe "worldwide royalty-free licence to reproduce, display, distribute" or do whatever they want with any content I produce using their software.

This is beyond insane. No creator in their right mind can accept this .

You pay a huge monthly subscription and they want to own your content and your entire business as well.

Going to have to learn some new tools.

What an insult to Vicky Phelan and all the other women affected by the cervical check scandal. Not in my name.

Took a solemn oath not to say this when I graduated from UL but trinity students are pretty cool

Join us in co-signing this open letter urging all Irish universities and HEIs to issue a public statement 1. calling for an immediate, permanent ceasefire in Gaza, echoing the need for justice, accountability, and equal protection of human rights and 2. committing to undertake a review of all ties with Israeli institutions.

There's nothing sadder than seeing universities cut their arts and humanities departments. Literature, philosophy, poetry, these are things that nourish and sustain the human spirit. They are necessary for us to flourish.

Nice poster with some data fallacies to be aware of:
Cherry picking
Sampling bias

I have no doubt that *many* students have faked an illness or a family death in order to get an extension from me over the years. I don't care at all.

I am certain there were actual challenges happening in their lives that they didn't feel safe telling me about.

Universities that require three letters of recommendation for a job should have to provide evidence of three happy members of the department

The racism behind chatGPT that we aren't talking about...

This year, I learned that students use chatGPT because they believe it helps them sound more respectable. And I learned that it absolutely does not work. A thread. 🧵

A good example of how designing things with disability and accommodation in mind makes them better. And how when you do that work, even when it doesn’t it impact you personally, it will come in handy when it does impact you 😷

OpenAI just launched the GPT store.
