I predicted this would happen…look forward to giving this a spin vs instinct
We’re opening a research preview of Claude Duet, a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent. It comes to you with what needs your attention, completes tasks you ask of it, keeps working when you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.

Real argument in a teacher focus group this week: should AI be the one critiquing student work? One teacher: yes, kids need to build resilience to feedback. Another: criticism only counts if it comes from a person. I genuinely don't know!

at least we know he’s not using AI

Heading to Athens next week for Holtzbrinck's Innovation Days...and the keynote is Jonathan Knight, who runs games at the NYT. Games! At a publishing event. Kind of love that.

Funny week...a teammate and I each built a people/projects tracker from the same spec, without talking to each other. Nearly the same thing. Hers had the better design, mine had a few extra views. So now we merge them.

Some costs I can name... we did the same work twice, and now there's a merge nobody planned. I only half understand code I didn't write line by line. And every build is a pile of compute I never see. I don't know what that adds up to. Honestly, I haven't looked.

Maybe a prototype is mostly a cheap way to find out what the spec was missing. If so, is building the full thing twice the lazy version of that? Curious how other people decide when to stop at a sketch.

k...back here after a while! Still building things. Want to use this space to share things I'm trying, things I'm learning...and the bits I can't get to work yet. Hi again :)

"Inspirit isn't just an extracurricular activity. One of the biggest differentiators between Inspirit VR classroom and other platforms is that it addresses core content. It's not something that students need to use independently."—@MongoDB mongodb.com/blog/post/built-… #edtech #k12 #VR
