My two sons also were diagnosed with ADHD, my wife bravely took on the Unschooling approach for homeschooling them. Really happy with how that turned out.

As for games in learning, here is a book about a group of teachers who are pioneering this movement. https://www.amazon.com/Game-Based-Learning-Action-Literacies-Epistemologies/dp/1433144743. (I am part of a The Tribe, but not a subject in his book.)

You can also google articles by Paul Darvasi (amazing classroom experiments) ; and with key words ‘game based learning’ .

Regarding Fortnite, try to objectively evaluate the cognitive skills needed to succeed, and why working so hard in that game is so rewarding. Studies have shown that the challenge of scoring points and survival are what’s going on in player minds, not glee at murder. It’s more like scoring against another player in one on one basketball, although it LOOKS like shooting.

I am currently in India working on a gamification elements for digital education project for UNESCO, this is a global movement that is already beginning to be used in classrooms. Hardest part is overcoming skepticism about having education be ‘fun’.

It's kind of funny to see conservatives think neoliberalism is some kind of left wing phenomenon.

Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher were two of the greatest proponents of Neoliberalism - free movement of capital, people, goods, and services across borders. Everyone should read A Brief History of Neoliberalism by David Harvey.

This is a great transcript, nice job!

I was able to hear it using a set of Tennmaks on my laptop.

Here's what fellow author Frederick Pohl said about this:

> But by the latter ’60s, he had become a good deal more adventurous. On meeting an attractive woman — one who was not obviously the Most Significant Other of some male friend — he was inclined to touch her … not immediately on any Off Limits part of her anatomy but in a fairly fondling way. (When I called him on it once, he said, “It’s like the old saying. You get slapped a lot, but you get laid a lot, too.”)

I also think you're too quick to dismiss the article you linked to - the letters between the Chicon chair and Asimov include both a clear reference to Asimov's behavior, both in the nature of the request itself and the comment, "frankly, your reputation". Asimov acknowledges this in his response, saying "...there is some age at which I ought to gain a kind of minimal dignity suiting my age position in life."

There is also apparently some discussion of these issues in Asimov's letters published in the book Yours, Isaac Asimov. One of the Amazon reviews mentions this, saying:

> "...and combination of feminist sympathies with a habit of what he calls "flirting" with women (but it's likely to make a contemporary reader think of sexual harassment lawsuits)."

I'm a big fan of Asimov's (more his non-fiction than much of his scifi), but that's not going to cause me to simply try to deny that he might have been imperfect. The article you linked to has a good take on that, reminding us that the problem was not just with the individuals who engaged in such behavior, but with the society that tolerated and even condoned it:

> [The slogan "We Don't Do That Anymore"] reminds us all that we have all been a part of a cultural of sexual harassment at conventions. We have been harassed and not reported it. We have crossed boundaries and not known. We have been told we crossed boundaries and not known how to make amends. We have witnessed and not intervened.

> “Don’t Do That.” But now we know better. Now we have been educated and informed. We have strategies and plans. We have people and institutions that we can trust to help us navigate the muddy waters of harassment.

> “Anymore.” We have failed in the past. We intend to fail less in the future.

I'm reading Nixonland and slowly realizing that Johnson's Great Society didn't fail because people didn't want it. It failed because people didn't want black people to have access to it.

>My continuing complaint with the trump-a-nistas is quite simple... "Why do you continually vote against your own interests?"

Wedge social and cultural issues. People should definitely read What's the Matter With Kansas.

N. Gregory Mankiw: a well-published, Tenured Harvard Professor, Former G.W. Staffer and writer of one of the most used books around the world in 101 economics courses https://www.amazon.com/Principles-Economics-Mankiws/dp/0538453052 is probably making ALOT more than 100k a year.

In fact the royalties from his textbooks alone make him a millionaire:

Since then, more than one million copies have been sold, and Mankiw has received an estimated $42 million in royalties from the book, which is priced at $280 per copy.

People in his tax bracket made out like bandits.

In addition to Albion's Seed mentioned above, "American Nations" is a broader overview of the various regional groups that settled the US, which includes both the Anglo-Scottish and Puritan-Quaker cultures.

Yep.

But that's from so long ago.


You're right but still after MLK's days.

But that's not a reputable source, it's only hearsay.


Damn, got me there guess I only have hearsay sources.
But that's not real racism you start to type that's only against illegal immigrants and Jews.


Oh well, guess I don't have any statistics.
But those are the outliers...


Guess I'm all out of links.
