As pro-freedom as I am, I'm glad to see Australia’s under-16 social media ban. You can parent against alcohol and cigarettes. You can’t parent against TikTok’s design team. Worst case: harmless experiment. Let it run.

Don't rely on the master to be a good teacher. It is the student's responsibility to draw out the wisdom.

Here's a thought experiment...what would be the total impact on societies if governments offered these payments directly to parents to stay at home and care for their own children? Grandparents the next best option.
The U.S. is an outlier in its low levels of financial support for young children’s care. Rich countries contribute an average of $14,000 per year for a toddler’s care, compared with $500 in the U.S. The Democrats’ spending bill tries to shrink the gap. nyti.ms/3aoVoOs

After hitting a record $711m in investment in 2020, European edtech is starting 2021 with a bang: last week alone saw three raises from 🇬🇧 @JoinMultiverse ($44m) & @obrizum (£1.8m) and 🇪🇸@ironhack ($20m). Could #edtech be the next big investment opportunity of the 2020s? 📚👇

Saw this coming. Soon you'll be able to opt-out in one place from targeting advertising - or get paid. Big probs for startups that can't micro-manage their user data, create user flows for specific permissions & explain the benefits of recommender systems. theverge.com/2020/6/22/21298…

“Wait, my kid’s going to be home most of the year? Staring at a computer screen?” There’s this horrific awakening being delivered via Zoom of just how substandard and overpriced education is at every level. nymag.com/intelligencer/2020… via @intelligencer

What is worth learning now that exams are cancelled?
Would children learn more if we removed their devices for 2 months than if we crammed their schedules with online learning? @bryan_caplan
