Hi and welcome to my blog! I would like to open this blog with a Remix chiptune I made during the Christmas holidays. Its based on the soundTrack of the movie Amelie by Yann Tiersen. It’s fully compatible with our beloved C64 computer. Enjoy!
This fall, Stanford opened three of its courses to free online enrollment: Machine Learning, Databases, and Artificial Intelligence. Over 100,000 people signed up.
This winter they’ve expanded to 16 courses. I didn’t see a directory anywhere so here is the complete listing:

One teachers approach to preventing gender bullying in a classroom
Alie arrived at our 1st-grade classroom wearing a sweatshirt with a hood. I asked her to take off her hood, and she refused. I thought she was just being difficult and ignored it. After breakfast we got in line for art, and I noticed that she still had not removed her hood. When we arrived at the art room, I said: “Allie, I’m not playing. It’s time for art. The rule is no hoods or hats in school.”
She looked up with tears in her eyes and I realized there was something wrong. Her classmates went into the art room and we moved to the art storage area so her classmates wouldn’t hear our conversation. I softened my tone and asked her if she’d like to tell me what was wrong.
“My ponytail,” she cried.
“Can I see?” I asked.
She nodded and pulled down her hood. Allie’s braids had come undone overnight and there hadn’t been time to redo them in the morning, so they had to be put back in a ponytail. It was high up on the back of her head like those of many girls in our class, but I could see that to Allie it just felt wrong. With Allie’s permission, I took the elastic out and re-braided her hair so it could hang down.
“How’s that?” I asked.
She smiled. “Good,” she said and skipped off to join her friends in art.
