- “She realized her students couldn't always discern whether what AI generated was valuable or not, and they still needed to build foundational skills, like how to write a thesis and construct an argument. ‘Where are those skills going to be built, if not here?’”

The e-book boom (and a complicated pricing model from publishers) has left library systems strapped for cash. But D.C. lawmakers have a plan to fight back. 51st.news/ebooks-are-e...

- Reposted by Melinda ColemanRed or Blue, now is the time to email your senator. Tomorrow morning is the time to call their offices. I don't care if your senator is already on side (give them your courage) or if your senator is wholly useless (give them some of your fear). Make sure they hear from you.

- I hate driving/parking in Dallas and I love taking the train. However, it takes about 2 hours one way including a transfer from DCTA to DART. We need expanded public transit, not less!
- The arguments made by these Dallas suburbs — that they don’t get as much out of DART as they pay in — is terrible. Transit benefits the Dallas region as a whole, and axing all regional service in certain communities is very shortsighted. @yonahfreemark.com
