<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://recurse.social/@stephenrkell" class="u-url mention">@<span>stephenrkell</span></a></span> I usually mix things up with coding exercises so I'm not always actively talking. However, something is usually going on for the whole day. </p><p>There are some interesting tradeoffs though. I don't grade papers or hold office hours. Also, since the course is "all at once", there's a certain flow to the whole affair. </p><p>I also feel like there's a pretty clean separation between "teaching" and "not teaching" which was difficult to achieve in academia.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://recurse.social/@stephenrkell" class="u-url mention">@<span>stephenrkell</span></a></span> Should emphasize that the teaching is intense and full time when I'm doing it. 25 weeks means a solid week (40 hours). So about 1000 hours a year of actually teaching.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://recurse.social/@stephenrkell" class="u-url mention">@<span>stephenrkell</span></a></span> I'd say I mainly teach experienced programmers who want to learn something interesting, but without having to enroll in graduate school. </p><p>I consistently spend about 25 weeks of the year actively teaching. The rest is spent "messing around" (although that includes course prep). I never try to profit from the messing around.</p><p>I like this model because it's straightforward. I teach a class. You pay me. It ends when the class ends. I do whatever I want outside of that.</p>

<p>Oh, one final postscript: At least around here, most of these cameras started popping up around 2022. If you scan through documents, you'll find that most cities signed 3-4 year contracts with the provider. Which means that all of that stuff is going to be coming up for renewal pretty soon.</p>
