I love this!
This is brilliant article on Vibe Coding. I have to say I really like this term, very joyful.
When I worked in UK academia I recall hearing of a Japanese man who was baffled at how Britain had decided to run its universities like firms. “Why? Your universities are excellent and your firms are terrible.”
IEEE #Neuroethics Education section of the Framework has officially gone live! As co-chair of the #Education Subcommittee, this is a particularly exciting moment for me, and a significant step forward for the field of neuroethics and education.

Search for "african country starting with k" There's text first thing that reads: "While there are 54 recognized countries in Africa, none of them begin with the letter 'K'. The closest is Kenya, which starts with a 'K'; sound, but is actually spelled with a 'K' sound. It's always interesting to learn new trivia facts like this."

This keeps popping up in my feed. BPL launched its Books Unbanned program way back in April 2022, and it now includes Seattle, Los Angeles County, Boston, and San Diego. NYPL has its own program, Books for All. Libraries have been *on this* for a while.
Reposting our faculty opening because we begin reviewing applications in a week. I'm not on the committee but can answer questions. I'm happy here personally. :)
