hmm 12 (to pick up from post 4/?) I had a vague sense in grade school that word problems and I didn't get on. Read more... )

13 I've chosen to take an additional class from each of two instructors, and to avoid an additional class from a third instructor---a novelty compared to the chronic overenrollment of my original undergrad classes, whereby one did not choose so much as roll dice against the enrollment slot, one's requirements, and unseen forces (which I realized in grad school were partly administrative, such as who was on leave during a given term). Anyway, the instructor to avoid for the fall had a synchronous lecture via Zoom for spring and advertised several times for his fall class. I see why, now---only 15% of its seats have been filled.

Upon due reflection, I think this Axios piece (which I read yesterday) deserves more attention:
https://www.axios.com/2025/05/28/ai-jobs-white-collar-unemployment-anthropic
AI could wipe out half of all entry-level white-collar jobs — and spike unemployment to 10-20% in the next one to five years, Amodei told us in an interview from his San Francisco office.

Don't panic. Strategize.
