Where did the notion of an "infinitely patient" AI tutor being a good thing come from? Sal Khan uses this. I've seen Marc Andreessen use it. It makes no sense. Some of the most important moments in my learning life was a teacher losing patience with me.

Watched WAYNE’S WORLD for pizza night and this morning the 11-year-old was going around doing the “camera one / camera two” bit. Party on.

In today's issue of his excellent baseball-and-other-stuff newsletter, @craigcalcaterra.bsky.social writes about visiting this exhibit, which gives me an excuse to share these images again and urge anyone in London who has even a smidgen of appreciation for Wes Anderson's work to go.

My book KEEP GOING came out 7 years ago today.

I am sorry that it’s more relevant than ever, but I’m happy I wrote the book I needed to read.
