anke gröner über einen text von englisch-professor walt hunter im atlantic: „Stop Meeting Students Where They Are“ (geschenk-link von anke).

Keine pseu­do­klu­ge, weil an­ge­le­se­ne Wie­der­ga­be von fremden Po­si­tio­nen, sondern das Ab­ar­bei­ten am eigenen Un­ver­ständ­nis. Die Kon­fron­ta­ti­on mit Fragen anstatt die Suche nach der einen Antwort, die es eh nicht gibt. […]
Lesen [ist] eben immer mehr ist als Lesen: Fragen stellen, nach­den­ken, Po­si­tio­nen über­den­ken. […]

„Aus der Ver­weis­struk­tur des Netzes wird eine Ex­trak­ti­ons­lo­gik. Texte werden nicht mehr gelesen, sondern aus­ge­beu­tet, ihr Kontext ver­schwin­det im Ant­wort­for­mat.“

When phone cameras got good enough, portrait pho­to­graph­ers scolded people who took their own headshots.

And when the Mac got pretty good at ty­pe­set­ting, pro­fes­sio­nal designers pointed out that people who can’t tell a font from a typeface and don’t care about kerning should avoid it.

Pro­fes­sio­nal trans­la­tors bring humanity and insight to trans­forming writing from one language to another, but many people continue to use Google Translate…

Here’s the thing: the trans­la­tors take their own headshots. Web designers often use trans­la­ti­on software. And life coaches build their own websites with Squa­re­space and put their own selfies on Linkedin. We all make our own decisions, and most of the time, we use tech to do it ourselves.

das sind natürlich auch alles „Stan­dard­si­tua­tio­nen der Tech­no­lo­gie­kri­tik“.

Today's hike was meant to be a big one. Then Azure got really sick which was a huge bummer. And then we realized that if I didn't go for a hike today (even a small one) I'd fall behind on my goal o...

this is seriously awesome. i always looked for an easy way of showing my walks and hikes on my site and just dropping in a .gpx file is such a great idea! in fact this works really well with a .gpx export from my apple watch activity tracking (via ios auto export). i’ll steal your im­ple­men­ta­ti­on to use it on my site right away. thanks for the in­spi­ra­ti­on. (the photos of your valentine’s hike are awesome, too.)
