Quantum mechanics anyone? Dozens have been disappointed by UCLA’s administration ineptly standing in the way of Dr. Mike Miller being able to offer his perennial Winter UCLA math class (Ring Theory this quarter), so a few friends and I are putting our… boffosocko.com/?p=55814122

Apple is making changes to its Covid-19 policy, and will stop mandating employees test before coming into the office. It's also rolling back its special sick leave policy, which previously allowed for unlimited sick leave for workers experiencing covid symptoms.

So I’m editing the indieweb wiki and suddenly I lost the game. Good job, Ben. Nowhere is safe!

This week in #edu106 we will examine the shape of the selfie and selfie culture and the role this plays in the formation of constructs like self and identity #literacies

#brave do not succumb to some craving of a hero's glory perched atop the miseries of victories. Nor forage to save, nor seek to pave graves of enemies. Courage does not drip in lust but in disgust of war flourishes in clips sipping on August winds #smallpoems 1/2

Are you practicing outreach during eternal Caturday?

An image for #edu106...do we all just sit in the hatchery of social media silos waiting for that bell to ring? #literacies

This is old news but I have lingering browser tabs about it, so I guess that means it gets a post!

After many months without updates the Beaker browser has been officially archived.

I had a lot of hopes for this kind of “no-backend” peer-to-peer web app tool, but never felt like I was quite ready to jump in. To my (subjective) reading from the outside, Beaker was always not-quite-stable, with pivots happening from major feature to major feature. I recall that “solving multi-writer” was always a critical missing feature, and it was always over one horizon or the next.

I recognize that many core bits of Beaker live on. A lot of the good decentralized-plumbing stuff continues to improve in the hyper ecosystem. I also have high hopes for Agregore as a spiritual successor - a browser for “local-first” decentralized web apps that takes the extremely cool step of mapping the complexity of several decentralized protocols to well understood HTTP methods via fetch APIs.

Still, with the loss of Beaker I feel like we’re now missing a complete tool that allows hacking on something locally (even with media), and be able to share and collaborate on it simply by sharing a link.

I wonder what will be the next home of something like Duxtape (source). Or Paperize, but without Google Drive on the backend.

Have read and re-read #VampireAcademy dozens of times, it has helped me get through a lot of hard times as an escape, was hoping to the show could do the same with multiple seasons I could binge and re-watch. We need season 2 #VAtheWords
I do not fear Russia, a mediocre regional power at best. Ukraine is not a proxy war. Proxy wars involve two powers feeding opposite sides of a conflict. Ukraine is a real war. Real Russian troops on the ground killing babies. NATO provides arms so #Ukraine can defend itself twitter.com/Macsbooks1/sta…
Yes teachers need help with #disinfo but we have to acknowledge we are facing attacks in the information space from foreign actors and states. not the job of the k12 teachers alone to fight influence campaigns from Russia like #MAGA #QANON and #altright BS #NAFO

As an FYI #NAFO this is not the same Dr. Mac as me. (lots of PhD's, and real doctors, prolly go by Dr. Mac for short) I too know history of Stalin and Ukraine....those that do would not put up with re-emergence of Russian imperialism. twitter.com/Macsbooks1/sta…
When you get on Twitter and see #SaveVampireAcademy is still trending. Favorite book series and best adaption. We need a season 2
