@2something this is an excellent observation! I get a similar effect where when I'm reading a paper on a laptop I'll take fewer notes and do less of the examples vs when it's printed. I always blamed it on the pain of media/context switching, but I've no data...
So pleased to have posted a preprint with Amanda Burcroff this week, on eventual sign coherence for quiver mutation. http://arxiv.org/abs/2605.12865
I'm especially happy to now be a scholar of brogs https://www.xenoserieswiki.org/wiki/Brog

@2something Don't stop at teens! Talk with the Toddlers! Let siblings strike in solidarity. They have to live with our choices much longer than we do.

@yoriyuki I know one teaching model that still requires code experience and gets students to prep: each class has a random student coding on the projector in front of the class, working on an exercise with help from the peanut gallery + prof.
However, unless you are really careful this will slow down the class a lot. I learned a lot from the programming languages course that worked this way, but it didn't cover all that much material.

@HM @EUCommission confused by this reply. Seems pretty small scale marketing effort, roughly in line with what a public organization needs to do to avoid being labeled as useless, without demanding space and being annoying. The right amount of marketing is not 0.

@tomkalei@machteburch.social @tao@mathstodon.xyz this makes a lot of sense to me - similar to how 'run it through spell check' has become.
