I think the core issue where I strongly disagree with this article (and also what seems to be the disagreement why at least some tech billionaires have a completely different experience on education that leads them to finance such initiatives) is concentrated in the following paragraph of the article: "I have tried to illustrate as often as my subscribers will tolerate that students don’t particularly enjoy learning alone with laptops within social spaces like classrooms. That learning fails to answer their questions about their social identity. It contributes to their feelings of alienation and disbelonging." "I have tried to illustrate as often as my subscribers will tolerate that students don’t particularly enjoy learning alone with laptops within social spaces like classrooms.": I do agree, but (for me) the reason is not the laptops, but the classroom. "That learning fails to answer their questions about their social identity. It contributes to their feelings of alienation and disbelonging.": Well, I felt alienated in school, and felt much more home hacking or on the internet (according to the HN comments to this article, this seems to be true for some tech billionaires, too)
