The situation I want to avoid is paying $10k in living expenses so my daughter can take online classes a mile from her university for the off chance classes might return to in-person. /3
Online instruction is the only way she’s attending in the fall if she moves home. Should the university decide in August to return students to campus, she’s skipping the semester. Schools should commit now for 100% online, and optionally in-person too. /2

The author missed the opposite risk, which is my daughter’s lease is up in July and she lives 2000 miles away. If the university hasn’t committed to in-person instruction by then (and maybe even if they have), she’s not going to renew her lease and will move home. /1
Many students will elect to sit out the fall term rather than spend many thousands of dollars for a fall academic experience centered on watching videos on a laptop, says John Villasenor. chroni.cl/34uQ5cO

My kids get the wide variety of music in the car. I like to think I’m expanding their palate, but maybe I just enjoy torturing them with metal, grunge, ragtime, folk, techno, country, standards, etc. Then there’s the old radio shows, like Jack Benny and Dennis Day...

I still think fondly of the Slug-Man game. I found a copy on your archived website, but it doesn't run on modern OS X, so I guess I'll have to dig the old iMac out of the basement.

Great advice!
I wrote something for Forbes on industry burnout. While I wrote it prior to the COVID madness, I think it may apply more than ever forbes.com/sites/forbestechc…

Some credit cards give you an extended warranty, and if you buy at Costco or Nordstrom’s, their return policy means you can return it if breaks at any point in the future.
Reminds me of this scene in “Monster vs Aliens (2009)”

When SCOTUS disenfranchises voters, democracy is risked.
“The Court’s order requires absentee voters to postmark their ballots by election day, April 7—i.e., tomorrow—even if they did not receive their ballots by that date. That is a novel requirement.”

I don’t have a subscription, but wondering what school districts do with double the kindergarteners, and universities do with no freshman class (which propagates for four years).
My new @washingtonpost op-ed
Schools should consider keeping kids in the same grade this fall
