If you have a way that you read books on a Mac, and are able to export the highlights, can you let me know? The formats I can use for this are either EPUB or PDF.

Things I've tried:
Apple Books highlights are terrible, full of character errors and copyright notices after each one, so please don't suggest that option.

Calibre reader: Can't see how to export highlights, also formats textbooks terribly.

Feel free to boost!

In Jan 2023, just 2 months after #OpenAI launched #ChatGPT, a survey of 1,000 #college #students found that nearly 90% of them had used the chatbot to help w/ #homework assignments. In its first year of existence, ChatGPT’s total monthly visits steadily increased month-over-month until June, when #schools let out for the summer. (That wasn’t an anomaly: Traffic dipped again over the summer in 2024.)

Intelligencer · Rampant AI Cheating Is Ruining Education Alarmingly FastBy James D. Walsh

#HomeWork #Sawzall #OldDeck#ClearingUp

The printing press is one thing, but the invention of the Sawzall is right up there. It only took me 40 minutes to cut up large pieces of an old deck into more manageable pieces. Next up, that old small building that was supposed to be a chicken coop, 26 years ago. Just switch a blade to breeze through metal.

1. You and yourself form your being. But by that, what am I meaning?
Dualism is moot, no schism is true,
and identity's not all it's seeming.

2. Post-cholecystectomy [ko le sis tek toe mee]. This back pain will be the death of me.
"Right shoulder pain" became "mild strain"?
Docs ask how they're "enemy".

3. Counselling Level 3 coursework at this point feels like mild torture.
How can I stand 'Review Action Plan'
when my options send me to torpor?

4. UPR, ethics, and feel what you notice (for therapy, real).
Set forth Carl Rogers, Person-Centred's starter.
Humanistic counsell -- his whole deal.

5. I say Integrative Therapy
mixes together all three
approaches today taught in the UK:
Per-Centered, PsyDynamic, CBT.

6. Level 4 is the min you need right now to practise therapy.
You can still joke out quite a belter, as long as your role stays "helper".
One more word for client: "helpee".

7. For me, relearning MMA (medical-wise) has stayed "nay".
I have no energy, nor makeup on peak.
Who knows? Maybe... one day...

8. Just like spoiling a plot, repeat triggerers get blocked.
You ought aim not cause harm, if wish you to spare alarm.
Or... had we forgot?

9. Through others do we know ourself?
With lovers, we learn what we're dealt.
Your bodymind chooses which traits it loses,
plus those for which you far delve.

10. Sometimes you can guess your traumas. Meds' side effects include nausea.
Bothered ye to get yourselves through.
I never unlocked Bozja.

11. You can not make me start work. Although I feel like a jerk.
My tutor awaits the far-past-due date.
On this seat, I stay and I lurk.

12. Nonbinary goes known. Get up here, come, have a go.
"Are you masculine?"
"Are you feminine?"
Robot, femboy, and crone!

13. Gender is what your brain be, while expression is acting, you see.
Attraction to parts, updates and larks.
Oh no, sexuality!

14. Asexuals may be or not queer.
All aces stay welcome here.
Agender folk face too many jokes.
Aromantics write slash fics or jeer.

15. It's okay to ask for help. Whether or not you feel well.
While systems are limited, your needs stay existent.
We need to thunderclap-yell.
