I know that has to be a 7 but it sure looks like a 9. Loving the new Fedora 42 (GNOME)

My 8th grader: The 100% scores are lowering my grade!
Me: What was the 100% score before?
M8g: 108%

For the first time in my life today, I typed on a brailler - the formulas for permutation and combination. My blind students taught me how.

Now to move on and re-type all the nemeth math on BrailleBlaster manually using the six-key input...

Went through MX 23 and Fedora KDE before landing back on Fedora 41 (GNOME) Workstation. Solid as always, and works with Brailleblaster (with openjdk) and my other language input settings (ibus) flawlessly.
Next, to generate my own nemeth replacements on Brailleblaster for the special math characters!

Neighbors think we are decorating and lighting everything for Halloween and later. How do we tell them? (Been doing this for years!)

A dog on a 20 meter long non-retractable leash is effectively not a dog on a leash. The ways in which certain folks circumvent rules... impressive! Of course it works for them. The privilege and the entitlement.

Also, she did not clean up after her dog. Dog was way too far away :) You see the genius here?

I love that my son is breaking barriers in piano learning. Along with a couple "traditional" and "conventional" recital pieces, he owns the space by playing something he likes and breaks conventions. So far everyone in the audience has loved this, and his teacher supports it.

After all, we signed him up to learn to play piano, not 400 year old whatever music! And his pieces of choice are actually more difficult and entertaining!

Unfortunately, another article where the author did not look into the research and literature on how growth mindset does not actually work for a vast majority, and how it is actually being used as a tool of suppression by those in power.

And when you read the research, make sure you focus on the limitations of that research, correlation-caution, and all that.
