Impact of Boycotting Twitter

After a #washingtoncommanders victory, I miss the celebratory chatter & QB controversy on the dirty bird app. My favorite radio show on The Team 980, the Russell & Medhurst show, often refers to their Tweets, and Twitter conversations.

When Dr. Sabah from NC launches at the co-host that she would like to give the Ole Rooster a frontal lobotomy with a chainsaw, it's entertaining. But, I'm mature enough to sacrifice a few giggles for a larger pupose.

Math Fact fluency is generally poor across the grade level at 6th grade from what I can see. Addition / Subtraction facts to 20, not automatic. Multiplication / Division to 12×12, not there. The impact is that all the leaking oil from subprocesses creates a lack of fluency which creates friction at every step when students encounter higher order multi-step thinking. Grit requirement weeds out already frustrated populations.

Stopping by the woods on Thanksgiving Morning 2022.

These woods of mine I know so well

Where as a lad I used to dwell

Lost in the moment I didn't know

How unprepared I was for future snows.

My red haired hound must think it queer 

To stop without anyone near

Between the dawn and setting sun

The darkest times in all my years.

He gives his leash a shake

To ask if there is no mistake,

The only sound's the Beltway

and riot of oblivious birds.

These woods are littered with memories,

But I have promises to keep,

And now is not the time to sleep,

And now is not the time to sleep.

A Testament

On a positive note

About right

Great Cartoon.

My final word on Elon.

We need to show #twitter followers there’s a better way over here on Mastodon.

Encourage a better community. Bring good people over. Share good actors.

Time for the good guys to win.

@mikemadrid I was on board with the "stay here until the end" group, but Trumps account coming back was the last straw for me.

I doubt he will even use it. Musk is just looking for revenue, and that stunt probably increased usage with the cultists coming back.

They can keep saying "In it to the end" - but every hit on that site gets musk a few pennies closer to recouping his $44B, and I'm not interested in helping him out there.

Elon - Final Post for a while

@Fl0ps @mikemadrid
Elon may have flicked the #Twitterati the bird, but he has vaingloriously lit $Billions on fire; and he has eliminated any question about his reputation in the court of public opinion. Everybody knows that Elon is no Tony Stark, but has come out of the closet as a fascist tw@t, and an enabler of dictatorship. The US needs to terminate all of his contracts.

The #Resistance is not dead, but it has found safe havens across the virtual universe.

Models of The Mind: Nice Meta-analysis

.Models of the Mind: Nice Meta-analysis 

I've been reading about the convergence of neuroscience and artificial intelligence (AI) for over two decades. Models of the Mind provides a helpful meta-analysis of models of the mind shaped by philosophy, physics, biology, Mathematics, engineering, among other things. it's very approachable for the average lay person.

The author addresses studies inspired by observations of individual nerve cells, as well as analysis of electrical signal outputs from areas that fire in unison like a chorus of screaming demons. She ties it all together by referring to the history of information theory.

Readers can ponder the implications of a clear explanation of Baysean models of how prior knowledge weighs in to decision making calculations. The conversation about the tug and pull of grand unifying theories and practical applications is thought provoking. I enjoyed it.

Final Outdoor Hydroponic Lettuce Hall

It's 30⁰ outside, so I'm bringing Grow Farmstand

Inside. Final outdoor haul.

My greens grew great outside, & I proved that my leak had been a result of me not properly locking the sections.

If I leave outside, I'd ruin the pump.

This time, inside, I'll use a fan & sticky paper to control insects. I need better electrical, but cash strapped.

Twitter Addiction

Twitter addiction made me fly
Twitter addiction about to die

Blue bird electrocuted by the political rise of angels from H#!!
Now it's time to ring the bell.

Don't ask, don't tell, for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for all who fell under its spell.

Life After Twitter

Life After Twitter

I'm not bitter.

4.5 billion + years.

The Earth has lived without Elon Musk.

Cumaen Sybil, to whom TS Eliot alluded, wished for death but was hung in a cage, the leaves of knowledge, flitterred away.

Advertisers come. Advertisers go.
