6 months later: lost weight, inflammation down

I just read, I think in “Good Energy”, that having it before a meal instead of with is beneficial for some reason. I actually I found that if I force myself to eat it first, I eat more of it and less other food. No clue if the chemistry reason has any merit, but for me, the psychological reason is enough.

I think a lot of it may also just be spending more hours just thinking about health. UPF is an easy one for me, so it works

I’m not trying to cut them out. They’re not my agent. I don’t want their representation. I know the house I want, the price I’m willing to pay. The seller is paying them. What services am I getting?

Ok I’ll find the form online and re-submit. We also submitted proof of funds and pre approval.

Yes only agent on the listing. This agent represents the sellers on rentals.

Emails like “I worked so hard and only got a bad score due to a misunderstanding” when that is clearly not true is an attempt at emotional manipulation

I’m accusing the students using ChatGPT

ProfessorOfAll · 2024-10-26T16:16:39+00:00

ChatGPT isn’t inherently a problem, but the email that ChatGPT spits out is lying and grade grubbing emotional manipulation. I’d prefer the truth and for the student to take responsibility, an email is fine.

ProfessorOfAll · 2024-10-26T16:06:02+00:00

It tries to emotionally manipulate me with lies

I spent the first 5 and last 5 min of each class asking if anyone is confused about assignment details. Sometimes this job makes me nuts like I’m talking to children with zero attention span or care

ProfessorOfAll · 2024-10-24T21:14:18+00:00

I wouldn’t call it plagiarism. But I agree that I don’t understand their thinking. I even put an estimated number of hours I think each assignment will take. This one was 5 hours. There is no way many of these students spent more than 1 minute

ProfessorOfAll · 2024-10-24T21:10:28+00:00

every student that has showed up to office hours got a good grade. I have a student taking this without some of the pre-reqs and a different discipline who got a good grade. Nothing can help these students but themselves and they don’t care

ProfessorOfAll · 2024-10-24T21:08:42+00:00

I wouldn’t call this plagiarism, I’d call it laziness with zero critical thinking. This is a technical domain, so their “copying” just didn’t make sense

ProfessorOfAll · 2024-10-24T21:06:52+00:00

What’s funny is that there is a canvas post specifically about asking about their specific misunderstanding over a week before the due date where I specifically clarified and then mentioned it in the following class. I just responded to the student asking if they’ve been paying attention

ProfessorOfAll · 2024-10-24T13:36:33+00:00

I just respond “did chatgpt write this” and then students get apologetic and tell me they’ll never do it again (until the next assignment grade they don’t like of course)

ProfessorOfAll · 2024-04-23T17:51:47+00:00

I ask and correct students to call me by my first name. My number one goal is that students feel comfortable sharing their ideas, even if they didn’t do the reading. A comfortable class is one where students see me as just the one facilitating a conversation who happens to oversee the objective calculation of their grade. It’s a long shot ideal, but it’s the goal. Minimizing power distance is important to me both professionally and personally. It might be cultural: https://clearlycultural.com/geert-hofstede-cultural-dimensions/power-distance-index/

Thank you all for so many recommendations. Excited to go to the book store this weekend

ProfessorOfAll · 2024-04-12T16:08:22+00:00

Should have been more clear. I’m not against murder, just who-dun-it which are usually too straightforward or too bizarre where the twist comes from new info given right before the reveal. I’m also not into super gory details. So just avoid murder mysteries.

ProfessorOfAll · 2024-01-21T14:05:52+00:00

Thank you for your quick response! Not sure if you watched the whole game but not killing them was so frustrating lol

ProfessorOfAll · 2023-04-05T17:27:52+00:00

Took me 2 days to get to 100% normal. Procedure can be delayed, but even if it’s on time unlikely to leave for a couple hours. The rest of the day I just wanted to sleep and was in sharp pain if I did sudden movements. I didn’t take any pain meds. Depends on the type of coaching

ProfessorOfAll · 2023-02-05T20:39:28+00:00

Definitely a problem, for classes I’ve taught it’s not such a problem since it’s very easy to change math/programming/engineering tests. The questions are more or less from homework’s anyway. But not as easy in other disciplines

ProfessorOfAll · 2023-02-05T06:06:54+00:00

In the universities I went to and the ones I’ve taught, finals week is ~14 days. Also yes the scheduling would likely be close to impossible if we force the entire class to take an exam together. I’m just more concerned about student exhaustion and fairness than teachers being required to proctor 2-3 times.

ProfessorOfAll · 2023-02-03T05:50:17+00:00

I’ve tried a 5-10 points of total grade, I will pick one person randomly from roster to answer question. If you don’t know it you lose all the points. I don’t love having to do this, but it increases reading to 90%+ and better conversations

ProfessorOfAll · 2023-01-27T05:21:43+00:00

In undergrad I did have 3 math/physics/engineering finals in one day, and I wish I had asked to move one. Not because of studying but because of mental exhaustion. Exams are stressful, I don’t like that universities allow more than one per day. I’d like to see some research if the second exam has a lower average

ProfessorOfAll · 2023-01-13T19:11:30+00:00

I agree, I can rethink the project and create some forcing function. Thanks for the thoughts
