"Born to the manor" seems to rub people the wrong way but without people putting a lifetime into developing values around honorable, ethical service then all that remains of democracy is oligarchy and tribalism; all that remains of law is witch trials; all that remains of scientific inquiry is corporate flacks.

Colorado Supreme Court, adopting the majority rule, will not allow law firms to charge per-client fees to departing attorneys who take clients with them when they leave. In my non-expert opinion, the minority reasonableness test is preferable.
A question for #tech people who use #LinkedIn. Do you consider adding someone to your network an endorsement of their skills? Would you assume that someone is competent/admirable if they are connected to someone you know and admire?
If so, what do you do when a colleague who you absolutely would not recommend to even your worst enemy sends an invitation to connect?
Here's a discussion you'll want to hear! It's all about how to promote academic integrity in your #anatomy & #physiology course.

Public and academic discourse about the ethics of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science has largely focused on the algorithms and the companies deploying them. Little attention has been paid to the ethical agency of the developers. This study is the first of its kind that centers developers in the ethical environment. Semi-structured interviews with 40 developers about the ethics of being a developer revealed more than 20 themes, 3 of which are the subject of this paper: ethics in the occupational ecosystem, developer ethical agency, and the characteristics of an ethical developer. These themes reveal significant gaps between how developers perceive themselves and the reality of their work experiences. Their ethical agency is likewise variable. They have some authority to intervene for ethical reasons in systems they work on, but they often do not realize just how many ethical decisions they make. Nonetheless, this study reveals a growing ethical wisdom in this community, one that needs to be surfaced and nurtured by engaging with developers.
Active in #OnlineEducation from here in #Japan since 1995, this short paper is the culmination of my work:
"Online Education as a Discipline." https://doi.org/10.20935/AL434
It has been read by over 6,000 researchers since 2021 on Academia Edu at https://www.academia.edu/45386298 but reviewers and readers haven't fully noticed how it goes beyond emergency remote teaching and #BlendedLearning to #disciplinarity and #interdisciplinarity,
#ProfessionalEthics #FacultyDevelopment, and #India's institutional culture of education.
From the Abstract: the paper "explains what a discipline is by clarifying the difference between a field and a discipline. Then it explains what online education is, as an academic discipline. It discusses disciplinarity and interdisciplinarity issues relevant to all academic fields."
Please read it and respond!
