Yeah I learned the hard way that momentum and keeping loose on the bike is necessary, but a lot harder on a big bike. It's part of my motivation to keep downsizing!

I'm a university prof in a medical science field. We hired a new, tenure-line prof to teach introductory musculoskeletal anatomy to prepare our students for the more rigorous, full systems anatomy that's taught by a different professor. We learned (too late, after a year) that they used AI to generate the slides they used in lecture and never questioned/evaluated the content. Had an entire cohort of students fail the subsequent anatomy course after that.
But in my mind, what's worse is that the administration did nothing to correct the prof, and continues to push a pro-AI narrative in order for us to spend less time investing resources in teaching.
Yes it is, and that's the problem. I work my butt off to identify mechanisms to reduce musculoskeletal injury risk, and then to maintain my employment, I have to hand the rights to that work to a private organization that profits over it. To make matters worse, I then do the work to ensure the quality of other publications for the journal through the peer review process and am not compensated for it.
Sign up for the trial and see. I was really worried that I'd blast through the base sunscription's number of monthly searches, so I started counting the number of DDG searches I did a month. It was barely within Kagi's, so I signed up. The awesome thing is that their results are better to the point that I use fewer queries now.
This article made me wonder whether the issue was with our digital devices or what we're doing on our devices in these "interstitial times." Whwn I was a teen, I almost always had a book with me that I'd read in quiet moments between things; in college, reading is how I passed my time between classes. Now, I do the same with ebooks. I don't think the screen made any difference.
So is the problem filling the interstitial time with anything beyond daydreaming, or is the issue with the instant gratification that many apps are engineered to provide?
