In an era when AI can generate essays that mimic human writing with startling fluency, the question "What are we actually assessing?" has never felt more urgent.
Iāve just published a new blog post reflecting on a recent conversation with a colleague who argues that remote assessment is no longer trustworthy. Their proposed solution? Reintroduce in-person elementsāeven brief onesāto every assessment.
But what if the real challenge isn't technological, but pedagogical? What if the answer lies not in surveillance, but in reimagining the way we define and design assessment?
'Goed nieuws', schrijft NUnl. 'Robots kunnen nu sociale interactie en emoties aan kinderen leren.'
Was dit maar een 1 april bericht... In welke dystopie proberen Neerincx en het Centrum voor Jeugd en Gezin ons te krijgen?
"Het zit op het randje van ethisch verantwoord", vindt Cock Heemskerk, lector robotica dan wel. Goh, zou je denken??
'We kunnen binnenkort 110.000 zorgmedewerkers ontslaan!' juicht een rapport.
Cool, grapt Heemskerk, want robots laten tenminste nergens "hun meningen [in] doorschijnen, want die hebben ze toch niet."
Heeft deze lector zijn vak misschien geleerd van ChatGPT tekstjes? Één van de vele problemen met AI en robots is nou juist dat mensen denken dat ze neutraal en objectief zijn, terwijl ze én de vooringenomenheid van hun programmeurs weerspiegelen, én hallucineren bij de vleet.
Maar nee hoor, fuck het milieu & de aanslag van AI op klimaat, fuck die zorgmedewerkers, fuck die kids. Laten we kids met emotionele problemen maar aan robots koppelen, want die snappen emoties zo goed.

Feedback is baffled ā baffled! ā as to why Facebook owner Meta's attempts to suppress a previous employee's memoir sent the book rocketing to the top of the book charts
Me managed to fit 6 people in a 5.5m long motorhome
It was so great to meet with these wonderful people in the South of Spain. Thank you for coming to meet with us. Great time, great friends, great memories :)

For decades, scientists have tried to unlock the secrets of ancient DNA. But lifeās genetic blueprint is incredibly fragile, and researchers have struggled to find genetic material in fossils that has survived for millions of years. Then, one maverick scientist had the controversial idea of looking for DNA not in fossils or frozen ancient tissue ā but in the soil.
This film follows the scientists deciphering the oldest DNA ever found and revealing for the first time the genes of long-extinct creatures that once thrived in warm, lush Arctic landscapes.
Very well made video. I like when Mara narrates actually, it is quite easy to listen/follow. Plus maybe you can focus more on what you film, edit, the story?
Very interesting project. But I was also wondering how do they support the project? How did you guys join them? Did you pay? Did they train all of those other people for free?

What Itās REALLY Like on a Dolphin Research Expedition
Mara first time ever joined Dolphin research expedition in France together with NGO Miraceti. If you want join such expedition go to : ttps://miraceti.org/

They have some funds and grants. But also part of the funding comes from volunteers who joins their missions or go trough the training. Normally you have to pay, but since we were making video we paid only for the food on board.
Ya I know it is a link, I clicked it, it was in french. Could not figure it out how they make money or if these volunteers have to pay to participate. All Im saying is that for your videos would be useful to include some basic info about this - because both I and Sasha were wondering after seeing the video if you guys had to pay for the training for example.
Debut of MÄra in Be Brave To Act video! Few weeks ago we were sailing alongside French Mediterranean Coast and participated in Cetaceans Research Expedition organized by MIRACETI . It also was a proper training for us to become experienced Cetaceans Observers.

New blog post - a combination of how I got into emulation, that I pre-ordered the Retroid Flip 2, and some other notes about different handhelds and controllers I looked into before settling on the purchase.

Psychology is like recycling, you think it is working, but it is not. Never addresses the core problem. So easy to put people into categories and call them "sick". Works well for a livestock society. Best excuse to never touch the system in both cases. Continue recycling...continue labeling people as mentally ill. And let the system survive....
Truth is the opposite. It is this trade-based society that makes people mentally sick, and if we want to change that we have to change the society, not adjust the people to it.
Busy session again on Friday. We got to fixing a Lenovo G550 which was in pieces to start with. Freya did an amazing job to reassemble it. A bit more to work to do to fully refurbish this laptop. We also worked with another donation. It was wiped and installed with Linux Mint. As it's quite slow, we might look to put another version of GNU / Linux or BSD onto it. Extending the life of devices is one of the many benefits of using GNU / Linux instead of Windows and OS X. Another of our members has recently installed Linux Mint onto their laptop and is getting to grips with AI. So, a diverse session!
We are working towards a permanent space in the Hub for various computer projects. We are also looking to set up our own server. Thanks to Ashley for providing a computer for free to do just that! We welcome donations of devices as well as new members. Our sessions are Thursdays 2-5pm and Fridays 10am-1pm at the brilliant Swindon Hub.
Een fraudeur die 3 miljoen euro achterover drukte is veroordeeld. š Na 10 jaar gedegen onderzoek nota bene.
En zoals in de Franse wet staat, is de rechter VERPLICHT om dit soort daders hun passieve kiesrecht af te nemen, dus is dat ook gebeurd.
Maar omdat ze een fascist is, roepen Nederlandse media nu... moord en brand?? En dat haar veroordeling de fakking "dood van de democratie" is...?? š³š¤Æš²
Als je ziet wie er door NUnl, AD, NOS, Volkskrant of ED wordt gevraagd om commentaar, dan denk ik dat het adressenboekje van Der Sturmer nog minder nazi's bevatte. Trouw noemt de veroordeling zelfs het "zwartste scenario".
Je bent zelf het zwartste scenario. Zonder jullie zaten we nu niet met een wereld vol zwarthemden.
