Wait, you used to add MORE salt on purpose?

My uncle always said you can't teach an old dog new tricks, but his new puppy proved him wrong.

A writing professor actually said that? They gave you a rule with no room to bend it. That's wild. My high school teacher told us flashbacks were a cheap trick, but then we read classics full of them. Selling a story that breaks their rule must feel pretty good.

Oh wow, that's actually really cool to hear. I mean, my daughter's class uses something similar for math, where the AI gives her a different way to solve a problem if she's stuck on the first way they taught. It's not just giving answers, it's like having another way to explain things. Idk, maybe it's just me but seeing it help kids get past that frustration block is pretty neat. It feels less scary when you see it used like a tool instead of a replacement.
