A quotation from Horace

We learn more quickly and bring back to mind more readily
The things we laugh at than those we respect and revere.
 
[Discit enim citius, meminitque libentius ilud
Quod quis deridet, quam quod probat et veneratur.]

Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
Epistles [Epistularum, Letters], Book 2, ep. 1 “To Augustus,” l. 262ff (2.1.262-263) (14 BC) [tr. Palmer Bovie (1959)]

Genuine question for teachers...

How do you judge whether or not you are a "good teacher"?

.....whatever that means to you.

@alter_kaker
Thus weaponising ‘sloppy’ work.😐

Quality work takes time to achieve low error rates; ‘just good enough’ takes less time but has higher error; ‘sloppy’ takes even less time but has the highest error rates… introducing a sort of fast random error terror… or should that be random terror error?🤔
Unless the error is the point it’s a giant waste of time & money… for a civilised society, that is. ☹️

Compared to (most) humans, LLMs are unable to evaluate the quality of what they produce.

I'd be curious to see AI research work on that problem. "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" as the new required reading for Silicon Valley

@linuxfoundation can you please NOT advertise "#AI" bullshit of any kind?

Instead, how about you stop the #Regression of #Quality and #Compatibility with #Linux on the #Desktop and invest more time and energy to ease tze #Transision of #Windows users into Linux?

  • Cuz right now that would guarantee you a >90% market share by 2030 with minimal effort.

Seriously, why ain't you seizing that opportunity, #Linux?
