Echoing what others have said:

For yourself: Do what you want to do.

Wanna write? Write, read, play with Chat-GPT, do what it is you're wanting to do.

Wanna music? Play, compose, play with Musecore (it's free), listen, go to concerts, do what it is you're wanting to do.

Wanna art? Draw, sculpt, craft, go to museums, google art (it's free), do what it is you're wanting to do.

For others: Show them how much you enjoy it. Discuss the small, simple parts, if it gets too complicated, step back and focus on the small parts that makeup the whole. If it's not interesting, only the one's who want to will learn.

Here's what not to do:

Don't try to learn it all and become an expert in 5 minutes. I wanted to learn programming, and tried the free developer stuff online, but gave up because it's boring. Later, I came back to the stuff I enjoyed about programming and enjoy it.

Don't try to lie to your students about how much you know. They can tell, and you will feel fake. The wonder of, "I don't know the answer, let's find out together." and "Here's the answer, and that's how it fits with this. Isn't that crazy!!!" is so engaging and not only increases student engagement, but also your knowledge and gives you a fun teaching story about how you found out.

Whatever the goal, if you don't have a reason to keep learning, you will stop.

Enjoy the journey!

They already do, except for the "in-title" part, because the money used to keep them afloat is government money, which means it's taxpayer money, which means taxpayers actually own them, except for the "in-title" part.

The differences between these two is extreme enough to merit ridicule.

I do not like giveaways because most of them are just tax-write-offs.

However, if someone has money, it is theirs to decide how to use. And if someone else is being helped and not harmed, then it's a good thing.

I do not know of anyone being harmed by MrBeast.

But I do know of people and animals benefitting from his generousness.

Being embarrassed is not the same as physical injury.

Much like participation in MrBeast videos is not the same as participation in Squid Game.

Right? My mom said it's ok and there's nothing wrong with me.

Step 1. Invent microplastics.
Step 2. Have people ingest microplastics into their bodies.
Step 3. Evolve plastic-eating mushrooms.
Step 4. ???

Newer windows machines won't even let you install non-microsoft-store programs without checking a one-time-no-way-back-box of liability. So much for being an end-user...
Edit: And without a tertiary google search, the dialogue window language is designed to make users think "other" programs are not compatible.

So, unless you have an answer, how about YOU be quiet.
