glad to see everyone here shares the same brain cell lmao
people say shit to me and i wish i could hold up a flashcard or something that’s just this
my favourite thing is that everyone unanimously said “this post is about people in my life who use chatgpt”
@i-add-sources oh god please no
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1
WASHINGTON – President Trump signed an executive order today directing states to criminalize unhoused people and institutionalize people wit
Trump’s executive order could increase hospitalization of homeless individuals with mental health and substance use disorders.
This is true. Do note: executive orders are not laws
this is not my screenshot
discord has been pushing its new uk online safety act changes early for some users. this screenshot belongs to a 32 year old who used discords built in face scanner to verify their age. the scanner said they were 11 years old, and instantly suspended the account, with no option to try again or appeal, and the suspension will automatically end in 2027, when they’re “old enough” to use discord.
DO NOT SCAN YOUR FACE TO VERIFY YOUR AGE
if you really want to verify your age, use a different option available. don’t trust the face scan.
A small comic about Palestine I created to appeal to more passive family and friends
Anyways if you have the money I urge you to donate to Ibraheem Hadi, a Palestinian who contacted me and whom I promised to highlight in relation to this comic:

Otherwise there is always a need for eSims to keep Gazans connected
"what did students do before chatgpt?" well one time i forgot i had a history essay due at my 10am class the morning of so over the course of my 30 minute bus ride to school i awkwardly used by backpack as a desk, sped wrote the essay, and got an A on it.
six months later i re-read the essay prior to the final exam, went 'ohhhh yeah i remember this', got a question on that topic, and aced it.
point being that actually doing the work is how you learn the material and internalize it. ChatGPT can give you a short cut but it won't build you the the muscles.
I think of an art teacher I had once who said he used to be terrible at drawing hands until he bought a book with 100 pictures of hands shown from various angles and drew each hand in the book 10 times. Magically, after drawing 1,000 pictures of hands, he wasn't bad at drawing hands anymore.
The reason OP could bullshit a decent essay in a 30 minute bus ride is because OP knew how to write and craft a well-reasoned analysis thanks to a childhood full of writing and critical thinking practice.
Feel like I'm transforming into one of those reddit assholes, but this genuinely is just a "skill issue" and you really do just have to "git gud."
@sagwacore OP wasn't trying to give advice. OP was trying to give a truthful answer to the question that was asked. Do you think OP ought to have lied?
The question was, "What did students do before chatgpt?" The question was not "What do you think students ought to have been doing?" but "What did students do?"
This is what students did.
We really did this shit.
We're not saying it was "proper" behavior. We're not recommending this behavior. We're saying - this is a real thing that real teenagers did.
.
The point is to illustrate the difference between "then" and "now."
Back in the "old days," a student who was too irresponsible to spend 2 hours writing and revising an essay would spend 30 minutes speed-writing a lower quality essay.
Nowadays, when a student is too lazy to spend 2 hours writing an essay, they ask chatgpt to write it for them.
This is really bad.
Because an irresponsible teenager who spends half an hour speedwriting an essay is still a student. Maybe they're not the best student, but they're still learning. They are still practicing and developing writing skills.
An irresponsible teenager who lets chatgpt write an essay for them is not a student. They are not learning. They are not practicing and developing writing skills.
Thank you for this response. You really articulated what I was trying to get across in... What frankly was a pretty off-the-cuff post I didn't expect many folks to see.
If I regret anything about it, it's including the A grade. It was true, but it does come across as boasting; I could have phrased it better to get across my point.
Because frankly and honestly: I am naturally a good writer. Even at that age, I was. A good portion of that was practice, but it was also talent. We've all got natural talent somewhere or other, and mine lies in writing.
And I absolutely do not want the takeaway from this to be "speed writing a last minute essay works if you have natural talent, but if you don't, there's no point. Might as well use ChatGPT."
What I didn't include in that was all my failures. Cuz I had failures. There was one chemistry quiz I studied for week after week, a teacher kept re-assigning me, but I just couldn't remember the various ion configurations to his satisfaction. Years later, there were organic chemistry compounds I similarly struggled to internalise. Lots of tear-filled studying nights.
Mathematics. Ugh, mathematics. I got a D grade at a midterm exam in Year 10, enough that it risked completely flunking my overall grade score. It terrified me.
For the next six months or so, every Saturday morning, for 2 hours, I went to a math tutor hall, and just did math exam questions. I hated it. It was a unique combination of boring and stressful.
... But after all that work, I did, to my amazement, bring my mathematics grade to an A for my final exam.
Generative AI, to my knowledge, can't really produce answers to these things the same way it can with writing an essay (though I suspect it would try if you ask). So students don't really have chatgpt as an option to speedrun those.
But I'll say now: if such a speedrun option had existed when I was a student, I would have been sorely tempted by it. Sorely.
And that would have been a mistake. Because while I'll never really have any natural talent in chemistry or mathematics, I do have some hard-won skills in it. And I use those skills in my day-to-day life, both professional and personal, all the time, in ways both direct and indirect.
I'm not saying that our school systems are perfect. God, they are not. I stopped being a teacher in PART they were so flawed, that I could see it. I didn't want to be assigning kindergarten students six textbooks of homework per week. We've got some fucked up perverse incentives going at every level, and I can't BLAME students for seeing this, and baulking, and revolting.
But I'm not saying this for the sake of the system. I'm saying this for the sake of you, and your growth.
The only way to build the muscle is to lift the weights.

you're very pretty. your uniqueness is an inherently beautiful trait. please don't compare yourself to this guy. he's hot but don't compare yourself to him
But fish he's so round..... I'll never be as round as him....
but also consider- he'll never be as abstract as you are
what if he's jealous of you
Maybe I should breed with him and produce offspring that are a perfect mixture of round and abstract... The perfect being... My son will be the perfect being!
Yeah I was just thinking that maybe you should breed with him
Verified: Microsoft 365 gets massive 45% price hike — and it's all to do with AI tools (Tom's Guide - January 17, 2025)
oopsie i tripped and spilled my link to archive dot org's downloadable copy of Microsoft office suite for 2007, which features no AI tools and is a powerful word processor that still holds up just fine on windows 10!
I...tried to make a meme and got carried away and made A Thing that is like partially unfinished because i spent like 3 hours on it and then got tired.
I think this is mostly scientifically accurate but truth be told, there seems to be relatively little research on succession in regards to lawns specifically (as opposed to like, pastures). I am not exaggerating how bad they are for biodiversity though—recent research has referred to them as "ecological deserts."

I am PURITY SIKUKU SAMIR,I had been diagnosed with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes at a tender age, a condition that demanded a delicate balance of insulin, a commodity scarce in Khan Yunis, Gaza.
As conflict raged around me, have struggled to find the insulin I desperately needed to survive. With medical supplies scarce and hospitals overwhelmed, obtaining medication became a daily battle fraught with danger.
One day, as the bombs fell closer to Gaza tents,my insulin supply ran out completely. With no pharmacies open and no aid reaching my area, I faced a life-threatening dilemma. Without insulin, my blood sugar levels soared, threatening to send me into a coma.I I'm here begging for your support to help me get insulin.Every donation, no matter the size, will make a meaningful impact in my life. I sincerely appreciate your consideration and am grateful for any support you can extend during this challenging time.
I have managed to receive $107/$365. Kindly help me reach my goal please 🖤

Your blog is only four days old and very short, you're not vetted by anyone, all the reblogs are from a few days in a row and random (this one is rarely on any genuine blogs), you have a Paypal link instead of a GFM, this is your only orginal post, you spam tags on your pinned post not related to what it is about and you probably don't need that much money for insulin. Also, 107$ is enough to buy a few doses of the medicine. You removed many replies and reblogs, probably for people calling you out on your lies.
And I don't think anyone who asked me for insulin has ever been genuine.
