It is the true teacher who leaves the class knowing they have learned the most.

I'm so excited and I really just can't hide it! I still look forward to being back with you all again. Here's to progress here's to moving forward. Here's to not stepping backward into our own made problems.
One week from today, we will host @mholzschlag for her talk on “the web we deserve.”
We’re at 59 of 100 attendees, so reserve your spot today!

Nature really is a mother. A fierce and beautiful mother but still, a mother.

I found Dr. Moher when he opened a practice across the street from my apartment. I looked him up and found the video. Opioids are not my current issue, I was dropped off them. Bad. Benzos are 35 years a misery. He's got me stable after last doc dropped me. Benzo withdrawal: HELL.

My oncologist/hematologist is awesome. Moher from the video was straight up and knew more than most. The good ones seem to have to go through some hell of their own.

I've been split apart between Psych and way too much time spent in oncology suites. My new Primary Care may be a rare one. He was a pain management specialist who left and opened an integrated med clinic. He admitted his wrongs. youtube.com/watch?v=PbYv0zK6…
Psychiatry and psychology are outright bullshit. Psychiatry in the US is the practice of prescribing pharmaceuticals. Psychology is philosophy and morality judgements. All conditions are rooted in anatomy and physiology. DesCartes was a bad philosopher and a worse mathematician.

We've had 99 days with no rain here, no monsoon season, hottest, driest year for Arizona on record. Today, 70% chance. For many groups of humans, especially in arid climates, rain is a harbinger of good things to come. Jews rejoice rain on birthdays, weddings, inaugurations . . .

I wish I had words of comfort other than I'm glad you broke the dependency but good heavens to suffer so as a result is outright criminal. Just ONCE I'd like to hear a doc say "I am so sorry, this is my fault, not yours" and HELP not hurt. Life without quality is pure trauma :(

Morgan, are you now off benzos? I'm a 35 year patient and have been cut off more than once to near death. I'm on low dose now but have two loose teeth after a forced shortish withdrawal. WTF? I'm so so sorry. Benzos are the deadliest withdrawal, finally got new dr last week. HUGS

Yes, and some kind of actual standard of coursework. Educators must also be willing and adaptive lifelong learners as tech changes and how! I like declarative and semantic approaches: human readable, meaningful - useful :)

I do love the F2F but it isn't just Covid but my blood health that limits travel should we find ourselves free to move about the cabin without fear of infection. And I'm honored! :)
It's possible the dev failed. It's possible authors, educators and advocates such as myself failed as well. And others. I think we are mostly failing all aspects of Web these days, for many reasons, some fixable, others not so much. Education for Web is itself lacking standards.

HA! "Web dev mastery" might make a publisher happy as a book title but it's not possible with evolutionary tech. I'm now curious about your condition. I've had a lifetime of medical awful but for about 12 years I shoved as much travel and conference work. Still not enough travel!

Dark times indeed. On a lighter note, one of my favorite students when I was teaching and tutoring college English as a Second Language (#ESL) in the 80s was a young man who told me his family's story of fleeing Vietnam. I'm told his name, Duc Nguyen, is as common as John Smith!

I will never stop hungering for exploring culture, peoples, individuals and our many expressions via arts, language, food, science x infinity so long as I have the capacity to do so. I do not understand boredom. At all. :)
