  • Technology Education Network (Name is a work in progress)
  • Drupal, Mambo, and Plone
  • Art Club Netcast

    If you do #DonorsChoose they've been emailing out a survey about AI. Would be great if those of us in #education who know the plagiarism engines for what they are shared their honest opinions.

    I will not be smug about how I don't stream anymore, let alone on Twitch.There are some who have turned to streaming for income because health reasons prevent them from doing other kinds of work (and yes, streaming full time is work). There aren't many *profitable* alternatives.YouTube is getting worse as well, upping their requirements for getting paid while still running ads on everything.My students who dream of being the next Mr. Beast are going to have a harder time getting there.
