The daily habit is on for a two month streak! Picking up in the January pace of batting 1000 for the DS106 Daily Create and my Daily Flickr Photo habit, by the 59th day of the year being 59/59 in both. As the kid asks… Daily Flickr Photos A bit of… Not quite the Ghostbusters […]
File this in the gut conjecture category, not grounded in anything beyond my failable non artificial questionable intelligence in my own grey matter (King, 1978). Plus, I am sure it is better crafted elsewhere. It’s no secret that my own practices and beliefs remain around this value of outloud outboard brain (tell-tale that this precious […]
The clock is ticking for me to modify the WordPress theme that powers the DS106 Daily Create given that the slippery slope timeline for free, unfettered access to the Twitter API will sooner? later? tomorrow? hit the bottom. Just to be clear, nothing here stop the DS106 Daily Create site from publishing it’s 4050+ day […]
Flickr does some very fun things for me, and my pink and blue dot loyalty planted in March 2004 remains true. One of the fun things it has done numerous times over the past 6+ years is, without much a recognizable pattern, decides to locate my photos somewhere in rural China and remote regions of […]
Perhaps there needs to be more romance in the world of Artificial Intelligence? For a while, I had some thoughts back to good old ELIZA. What does she think of all this stuff? Most likely she would not say but deflect back with more questions. I had not realized … that extremely short exposures to […]
I just can’t stop the SPLOT, which has been into my blog veins since late 2014. Speaking of late November, that was when I got a kind email from Daniel Villar Onrubia asking to guest author an article on online infrastructures for open education for the EDUTEC Journal he is co-editing. As he has been […]
Current hyped mythology includes the idea that from the outside of one of the MagicalAI machines you can somehow conjure up what produced it. Or can you loop back? Promises, promises. But the ride might be interesting. As he does frequently, my friend and colleague Grant Potter slides me so many interesting sites and tools, […]
It seems like many worlds ago, when “MOOC” was not a term I mocked, but as it happens, this month marks the 10th year since Alec Couros launched ETMOOC, the Education Technology MOOOOOOC. Susan Spellman Cann has been heroic each year in organizing a tweeted reunion The linked “smore” site suggest ways to participate I’m […]
It’s that time of year, with a calendar reminder or not, to think of the span between these three days of February. Three days and many years now. February 5, 1950–now 73 years ago–marks the date Alyce Herondorf married Morris Levine and set out on that life together that gave me, my sisters, my brothers, […]
With grand intentions to stick to a schedule of daily challenges, by skin of my calendar teeth I am 31 for 31 days in both daily flickr photos and ds106 Daily Creates. I’ve held this pace before maybe 2 months? Does it really matter to get a perfect score (no)? But parsing some time to […]
