A former student of mine started a podcast and wanted to hear me talk for an hour about democracy and political theory. It’s unedited so all of my grammatical errors and confusions are in the original. https://t.co/GQNLL9gFjk

@JohnHBillings I've been following this with great interest, as a complete outsider. I wonder what you think of this - she responds directly to this point in one of her appendices:

It’s one of these mornings

Those of us teaching are familiar with the discussion (in true NYT style they found a history professor to wax lyrical on a dark future of robots talking to robots) the real insight is: student perspectives must be part of forming policies on the use of AI https://t.co/ZcKk9Gs8fT

During a record breaking heat wave in Texas our pro-death Governor doesn’t miss a chance to be on the wrong side of history and signs another law that harms the people the Governor’s policy doesn’t treat as fully human.

We ended the @MinervaUni in-person meetup last night on a boat, where yours truly organized a murder mystery game (& was easily murdered by the bar).
We did remote before it was cool and we do it better than most but that’s because we know how important in-person is. #unitas2023

After spending a lot of time with a dog, it’s possible to really know what they’re trying to say.

[Tomer Perry @Perrytom6]

The state of Texas, where I live, just executed a person who in all probability innocent. The Supreme Court denied the CERT petition, and Gov. Abbot, a pro-death Governor, gave the order. Unforgivable act by Texas - a state that is an institutionalization of injustice

Arthur Brown Jr.’s final words.

He was pronounced dead at 6:37 p.m. in the Huntsville unit.

[Reed Hastings @reedhastings]

The University I wish I could have gone to at 18. Amazing place for the next gen of global leaders.

@TomerUllman What… a scene.

[Tomer Perry @Perrytom6]

I know that coffee mug.

[Tomer Perry @Perrytom6]

Trying out #mindbug for the first time - really cool!

We struggled with Twilight Inscription but my son and I are having a literal ball with Super-Skill Pinball 4-Cade by ⁦@gengelstein⁩ the closest I ever came to feeling like a real pinball wizard

[Tomer Perry @Perrytom6]

My students always want to see my dog. They are right about one thing: this dog has a lot to contribute to a philosophy course.

[Tomer Perry @Perrytom6]

@donmacleod20 @TomerUllman So a perfect society is one where the bummer jobs are done by foreigners condemned to death/slavery that we picked up for cheap? And that’s better/different than ‘regular’ slaves?

[Tomer Perry @Perrytom6]

I’ve been remaking memes I find with pictures of my dog. Am I super cool now or even lamer. Don’t answer that.

We don’t talk about Europe. #PandemicTheCure

My son is really enjoying making complicated routes for his bot manufacturing plants with #mechanica by ⁦@criticalplay⁩

[Tomer Perry @Perrytom6]

Having a great time playing #theinitiative by Corey Konieczka. Not the game you’d expect who has Twilight Imperium in his ludography as this one is simple, fantastic family fun. The only trouble is, it’s hard to keep the kid from reading ahead in the story… that comics is 🔥
