#TickBox
My pen was so chonky it was a challenge to keep it to one tickbox. It was a blob rather than a tick

so they sent me the forms about my autism assessment *after* they sent me a reminder to complete them but it’s for the wrong type of appointment and one of the forms has a required tickbox “do you have autism? yes/no” well i mean there’s the question isn’t it!!!

itchio says it has just deleted terabytes of AI slop, as it adds gen-AI filters to its searches.

As with Steam, this does rely on folk self-reporting AI usage.

You obviously don’t live in Holborn if you think a Blue Labour approved, tickbox candidate, who refused to get involved in any debates and discussion panels with local residents, is a good win.

Or you are as politically illiterate as you sound

Or both

Wait, what? My GP is asking for permission to use my health details for training AI now? Since when, what AI are they training, whose AI is it, what for and are my data also getting sucked in to the bowels of ChatGPT or something? #AI #NHS #Healthcare #Privacy

Its own supporters are too chickenshit to admit that it straightforwardly requires genital checks for teenagers. If it's merely a tickbox formality, why would they propose the law at all?

seems a lot of effort to go through just for a tickbox formality

Sex/gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation are good examples - and how analysts code up free text "other" responses - if they do at all, e.g., what new codes are created, responses merged into one code, and which are back-coded into an original tickbox. Plus statistical power and disclosure control.

You are only an expert if your certificate and lanyard says you are.

Whether you know anything doesn't matter. Society comes down to a tickbox.

It can be seen as a tickbox exercise when made mandatory and not clear how it relates to role, strategic priority or addressing student outcomes esp with HR related development #LTHEChat

I mean, yes, I have a tickbox checklist on my phone to track it. But that relies on me not being distracted by literally anything in the 30 seconds between taking the pills and picking up my phone. It's pretty much a 50/50 chance🤦‍♂️

Loads of people have already said it's probably either AI filtering or a tickbox exercise when they already have a candidate. But that doesn't make it suck less. Don't take it personally, you know your strengths and the right job will come along when you least expect it.

My buddy Eileen made a short vid about their trans inclusion letter here www.instagram.com/reel/DeugbS-... Anyone can sign - there's a "Fan" tickbox for people who don't participate in the sport but want to show their support. www.figureskatingforall.org/open-letter

(2/2) select the first option, because that is a deterministic solution to "selected the group, not an option".

2. The active areas on touchscreens are larger than the tickbox / option itself, to make selection easy (unlike those ads with tiny "x" that's nearly impossible to not misclick)

☑️ Explore how explicit decision making and structure seeking can support learners across ability ranges. From fractions to algebra, discover practical ways to scaffold mathematical thinking and improve outcomes. It really is a tickbox exercise!

That is the same level of AI-limited in my reading, and would be encouraging students to focus on the thing that I think matter in a history degree. (and would be good for employability tickbox: they can write a paper, pitch it, and stand up to scrutiny. Way more transferable skill than handwriting)

The ballot can't even include a complete text or description of the effect of ballot measures, just a summary. For some reason, campaign finance penalties, fire dept oversight, ballot process changes and "other changes regarding ethics, elections, and governance" is all one tickbox.

BTW, I went to ASDAN moderation once, which was brilliant. Teachers moderating each others' folders. No judgement, no tickbox approach. We were told to 'bear in mind that what seems like a small amount of work might be a huge achievement for that individual child. Celebrate it'. So refreshing.

If you offer no "AI moderation" on the cheaper launch option they'll fall for it.

Call the option "unpromoted" and make it a tickbox in the store you gotta click for them to even show up on the search bar.

Us Enbies aren't even seen at all. The UK Gov refuses to recognise us at all. Individual state entities have a non binary tickbox for sure. But it has no legal binding.

Bonus points for the "Remember me" tickbox that does nothing
October 18, 2026 at 5:52 AM
Heh heh - fair enough - maybe Letterboxd needs another tickbox to signify "I didn't choose this viewing" 😆
