Sorry for triggering! (& thanks for the kind words) </p><p>Daniel is indeed one of the good ones, who cares as much as I do.</p><p>I think one aspect lost in conversation are clulteral norms between academic workloads. I’ve no idea what is expected at an R1 institution across the pond, nor across the Channel or elsewhere. For me, time *is* an issue. I have, an effective, 2 course load next semester that I am preparing for. One is an existing course that I am making better, the other is a brand new course. This is on top of the research I am trying to do, the grant writing and funding finding to grow my non existent team. Not to mention the citizenship, I sit of the departments research committee and I have also spent the last two weeks reviewing the assessment for seven of our modules before they go to the externals. (This doesn’t involve assessment moderation!).</p><p>My problem is that I care *too deeply* about my job. It’s hard fitting everything in…</p>

It came in handy when explaining Dart to a Clojure audience recently.</p>
<p>certifications? yeah we've got some of those :3</p>

(-: But as I've written in other contexts (eg, HtDP), we all suffer from a "blank page" syndrome, and what I offer is one way to *get started*. But not a good way to stop!</p>

Jan and I both really care about teaching quality and regularly insist that colleagues do better (as part of normal peer review etc.). I also know that Jan already has a lot of work planned to make some big improvements in teaching materials this year across multiple modules, and there is only so much time available.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinux" class="u-url mention">@<span>gamingonlinux</span></a></span> I have the conspiracy theory that Valve has already made their own version of the SteamOS compatible with x86 CPUs, however, they are purposely withholding it until Windows 10 end of support in 2025, so when a lot of people will find themselves in need of an alternative, they will be there ready to seize the opportunity in the midst of the social buzz</p>
