On the afternoon of October 3rd, officers from the Ximending Police Station (Wanhua Precinct) launched a raid on Commander D, a well-known BDSM bar in Taipei. Although the police claimed to possess a search warrant, they refused to present it to the patrons on site. In response to a person with disabilities present, a police officer made a discriminatory remark: "People with disabilities can have sex too?"
Taiwan's Ministry of Digital Affairs (MODA) has established the Artificial Intelligence Evaluation Center (AIEC), which "will periodically publish benchmark evaluation results for language models. In addition to adopting indicators based on the Chinese Language and Social Studies sections of the national high school entrance examination, AIEC also incorporates evaluation criteria reflecting Taiwanese values, aligning with global trends in AI sovereignty."

“I took it for granted that American activists on the left would be more open to learning from other countries than those on the right. But while Orbán was being invited to speak at Republican conferences, why didn't we invite anyone from Seoul? Netiwit did.”
—Jeffrey Wasserstrom (paraphrased), who discussed the several books he wrote on Asian political movements as well as “How to be a dissident” https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/books/review/how-to-be-a-dissident-gal-beckerman.html
“Christian faith, as I understand it, is not primarily a matter of signing on for the proposition that there exists a Supreme Being, but the kind of commitment made manifest by a human being at the end of his tether, foundering in darkness, pain, and bewilderment, who nevertheless remains faithful to the promise of a transformative love.” —Terry Eagleton

had dinner last night with a couple of kids from Texas and their assessment is that the education system is completely fucked. it's all teachers using ChatGPT to make lessons that kids complete using ChatGPT and then teachers grade the work using ChatGPT. you couldn't undermine a society more effectively if you set out to do it on purpose.

@aphyr I use Discord to field student questions. I haven't done a survey of options, so I would welcome alternative suggestions. I wrote a bot that allows each student to create a channel that only that student and the entire course staff can see. My priority is to get students (who can be shy, afraid, anxious, distant, intimidated, hubristic, disorganized, confused, overwhelmed, socially awkward, technically incompetent, etc.) to talk. to. us.

@aphyr I find different fields pay different amounts of attention to presentation prep. I usually have to warn students from other fields to start earlier than they are used to in order to match the polish of other speakers at my familiar conferences.

@gruff@4bear.com @ashinonyx@scholar.social Thanks for helping me realize that I haven't seen empirical evidence for some administrators' claim that putting everything on Canvas makes school easier for students or is preferred by students. I have only seen some of my students habitually go through Canvas to access links that lead to individual assignments posted on my own site.

@aphyr @Oggie @thomasfuchs Yeah I see that the way to read your one sentence that mentions the Turing test is to replace it by the sentence "ML-generated material has become difficult for people to distinguish from human-generated material", even though that doesn't have the emotional punch of "oh I thought passing the Turing test was a good thing"
