It was all highly technical content, in a domain where I have no prior (or adjacent) experience. <br/><br/>But… I passed! 🎉 😅<br/><br/>My goal wasn’t really the test. My goal has been to learn—really learn &amp; grok—this stuff, and then hope that was enough for the exam. And boy have I been learning!

When we pretend an AI can write “good enough” stories, we misunderstand what stories are: not just words arranged in pleasing patterns, but acts of human connection and meaning-making.”<br/><a href="https://cloudisland.nz/@parisba/114095850646953769">https://cloudisland.nz/@parisba/114095850646953769</a> 2025-03-03T01:41:49Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsvxz6jnulatdnm9thj4pscnyt0jv6nrum3085qjkg7wcw7eu9ppeqzyz4udffnqurwayrvw7l4jd2f35t735jgczurs96agvperllk20x869f9pef Okay, this is a long and meandering post: Deconstructing “What’s Worth Doing?” But, I use (and made!) lots and LOTS of pictures—30 pictures!! 🤪 This is me looking at *HOW* a specific learning card deck encourages and supports better thinking.
