In comparison, Perl/Python/Javascript, which also have the latter property, have other false-like values (0 and empty string), which make || differ from a null-coalescing operator in many more cases (numbers and strings being two of the most frequently used data types). This is what led Perl/Python/Javascript to add a separate operator while Ruby hasn't.

Decimals are commonly used to approximate real numbers. By increasing the number of digits after the decimal separator, one can make the approximation errors as small as one wants, when one has a method for computing the new digits.

Round half to even, which rounds to the nearest even number. With this method, 1.25 is rounded down to 1.2. If this method applies to 1.35, then it is rounded up to 1.4. This is the method preferred by many scientific disciplines, because, for example, it avoids skewing the average value of a long list of values upwards.

For example, if the length of a road is reported as 45600 m without information about the reporting or measurement resolution, then it is not clear if the road length is precisely measured as 45600 m or if it is a rough estimate.

A programming model is an execution model coupled to an API or a particular pattern of code.
-
-
en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org
-
Modern parallel languages have much easier to use execution models. The thread model was one of the original parallel execution models, which may account for why it has persisted despite being difficult to use.
-
The complication comes from the fact that the execution model does not have any means for the execution of "give up ownership of the lock" to have any influence over which execution of "gain ownership of the lock" in some other timeline (thread) follows. Very often, only certain handoffs give valid results. Thus, the programmer must think of all possible combinations of one thread giving up a lock and another thread getting it next, and make sure their code only allows valid combinations.
-
a common synchronization construct is the lock
-
The execution model is the definition of the behavior, so all implementations, whether in-order or out-of-order or interpreted or JIT'd etc.. must all give the exact same result, and that result is defined by the execution model.

Diatomaceous earth filters has been generally accepted to be the top contender for removing pollutants while having a high efficiency rate. When applied to pool filtration, a DE filter has demonstrated its capability in capturing varying particle sizes to maintain water clarity. Recent studies show that diatomaceous earth filters have been able to remove particles, ranging from 1-6 micrometers (micron) in size, thus maximizing water quality.

"Don't Download This Song" is the first single from "Weird Al" Yankovic's 12th studio album Straight Outta Lynwood. The song was released exclusively on August 21, 2006 as a digital download. It is a style parody of "We Are the World", "Voices That Care", "Hands Across America", "Heal the World" and other similar charity songs. The song "describes the perils of online music file-sharing" in a tongue-in-cheek manner.[1] To further the sarcasm, the song was freely available for streaming and to legally download in DRM-free MPEG fileformat at Weird Al's Myspace page, a standalone website,[2] as well as his YouTube channel. Background[edit] "Don't Download This Song" references several court cases related to the RIAA and copyright infringement of music. Among these are lawsuits against "a grandma" (presumably Gertrude Walton,[3] who was sued for copyright infringement six months after dying) and a "7-year-old girl" (presumably a reference to Tanya Andersen's daughter[4] sued at age 10 for alleged copyright infringements made at the age of 7), as well as Lars Ulrich's strong stance against copyright infringement of music in the days of Napster. The song also challenges the RIAA's claim that file sharing prevents the artists from profiting from their work, as the song argues that they are still very financially successful via their recording contracts: ("Don't take away money from artists just like me/How else can I afford another solid-gold Humvee, And diamond-studded swimming pools? These things don't grow on trees"). Mention is also made of Tommy Chong's time spent in prison.[5] Yankovic's own views on filesharing are less clear-cut: .mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 32px}.mw-parser-output .templatequote .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;padding-left:1.6em;margin-top:0}I have very mixed feelings about it. On one hand, I’m concerned that the rampant downloading of my copyright-protected material over the Internet is severely eating into my album sales and having a decidedly adverse effect on my career. On the other hand, I can get all the Metallica songs I want for FREE! WOW!!!!!— "Weird Al" Yankovic, "Ask Al" Q&As for May 2000 Yankovic's intention was to leave the listener with no clear understanding of Yankovic's own views on the matter, "all by design".[6] Music video[edit] The death scene from the music video. The music video, animated by Bill Plympton, premiered August 22, 2006 on Yahoo! Music. It depicts the vision of the capture, trial, imprisonment, attempted execution, escape, and burning of a young boy who burns a CD on his computer.[7] The boy's death, where he stands on top of a tower just before it explodes, parodies the film White Heat, where Cody Jarrett, played by James Cagney, dies in a similar fashion. Various people, from policemen to criminals to even sharks and dogs, are then seen celebrating throughout the ending chorus. But at the end, it turns out the boy is just imagining what would happen if he downloaded the song, so he throws away the burned CD and goes back to playing his guitar. Throughout the song, the video coloring gradually changes from color to grayscale to dark grayscale to yellowed. On MTV's MTV Music site where this music video is available, they have censored the names of the file sharing programs in the song, such as LimeWire or KaZaA.[8] Weird Al explained that MTV contacted him and told him they would not air his video if the references to the filesharing programs were not in some way removed, so he "made the creative decision to bleep them out as obnoxiously as possible, so that there would be no mistake I was being censored."[9] The video was praised by the Annie Awards and was subsequently nominated for Best Animated Short Subject for its 34th ceremony, but was beat out by the Ice Age featurette, No Time for Nuts.

Salesman documents the work of a group of door-to-door Bible salesmen in New England and Florida. Deeper down, the film is a dissection of the degenerative and devastating effects of capitalism on small towns and individuals, but more than any political statement the film is about normal people in all their ugliness and truthfulness.

Their success from a technical aspect was based in part on separating the camera from the sound recording device (David used a Nagra) by accurately controlling the speed of the camera and the tape recorder, allowing the two devices to be moved independently with respect to each other, an impossibility in commercially available equipment at the time. Long takes with ordinary equipment of the era would invariably lose synchronization.

Refractive index also varies with wavelength of the light as given by Cauchy's equation: The most general form of Cauchy's equation is n ( λ ) = A + B λ 2 + C λ 4 + ⋯ , {\displaystyle n(\lambda )=A+{\frac {B}{\lambda ^{2}}}+{\frac {C}{\lambda ^{4}}}+\cdots ,} where n is the refractive index, λ is the wavelength
Why only even terms in this equation?

“平衡态”和“偏离平衡”是古人用直觉就把握的世界理论。人们从这一观点出发,逐渐建立一个differential theory(newton laws)。
Aristotelian (384-322 BC): Violent motion (Need persistent causing by an agent) / Natural Motion. Eg. object naturally falls down and stay at rest. Eg. Projectile motion sustained by some intermediate carrier of motion, continuously exercising force to it. Denies empty space. Potentiality and Actuality.
Hipparchus (2CE): force is "transferred" to the body and dissipates as the body moves.
Philoponus (6CE): "inclination" is gained from the agent and then dissipated. Upon exhaustion, the object is back to natural motion. Objects continue to move in empty space. Concept of energy: dynamis, energeia.
(Iran) Avicenna (11CE) The Book of Healing. Distinction between Force and Inclination (Mayl). Object gains Mayl when it is in opposition to its natural motion. (close to potential energy). Similar idea as Newton's concept of Inertia. Dissipation of Mayl requires external force.
(Arabic) Hilbat Allah Abu'l-Barakat al-Baghdaadi (12CE). Like Philoponus' idea, unlike Sina: Mayl self-extinguishes.
Acceleration of falling body: The falling body itself provides mayl, one after another.
Jean Buridan (14CE), impetus = weight x velocity. Similar to today's concept of momentum. When something moves an object by violence, it provides 1) force - that makes the object move, 2) impetus - that keeps exerting force to the object. Still distinguishes moving and at rest. Distinguishes linear and circular impetus.
Posits that God provides celestial bodies with impetuses, that are never damped or resisted. Could not well explain why these bodies are rotating at a constant speed, rather than infinitely fast.
Tunnel Experiment distinguishes between 1) Aristotelian theory 2) H-P Variant of Aristotelian theory, 3) Buridan impetus theory.
1) Predicts that the object becomes at rest when reaches the center of the Earth, since no force would be there to move it. 2) Cannot reach the surface again, since by the time the ball reaches center of the Earth, the initial upward force of impetus is either exhausted, or produce a force opposite to the direction of motion of the ball. 3) Predicts that the object would perform pendulum motion. During the natural motion downward, the object would accumulate enough impetus, greater than gravity, to pull it up toward the surface after reaching the center.
Pendulum motion is not explainable by 1) or 2), only explainable by 3).
This thought experiment is the origin of all oscillations in the history of dynamics. Analogy is quickly drawn between pendula and vibrating strings.

Written inPython, Cython
Is this accurate? I don't have a lot of firsthand experience with data science stuff, but usually when looking just past surface-level you find that some Python package is really a shell around some native binary core implemented in e.g. C (or Fortran?).
When I at the repos for spaCy and its assistant Thinc, GitHub's language analysis shows that it's pretty much Python. Is there something lurking in the shadows that I'm not seeing? Or does this mean that if someone cloned spaCy and Thinc and wrote it in JS, then the subset of data scientists whose work can be done with those two packages (and whatever datavis generators they use) will benefit from the faster runtime and the the elimination of figging and other setup?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_effect
The Matthew effect of accumulated advantage, sometimes called the Matthew principle, is the tendency of individuals to accrue social or economic success in proportion to their initial level of popularity, friends, and wealth. It is sometimes summarized by the adage or platitude "the rich get richer and the poor get poorer". The term was coined by sociologists Robert K. Merton and Harriet Zuckerman in 1968 and takes its name from the Parable of the Talents in the biblical Gospel of Matthew.

nav visit to Centre Pompidou Metz [[Daglog 22-07-2024]] [[Différence et répétition by Gilles Deleuze]] 1968 (fr, eng tr. 1994)
Deleuze: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilles_Deleuze 1925-1995
n:: Repetition is set apart from generalities (cycli, gelijksoortigheid, laws also of nature, meaning disconnected events / situations behaving the same way because of e.g. gravity) Repetition is series of events or things, with a provenance (B repeats A, is repeated by C). This makes such a train of things/events unique. Art has a lot of such repetition because [[Steal Like an Artist by Austin Kleon]]
He defines repetition as 'a difference without a concept' p13. Difference precedes repetition, also repetition further creates difference. n:: Posits difference as an affirmation rather than Hegelian negation / opposition, and it seems sees both differences and repetition as building blocks of identity, rather than resulting from comparing identities / things that exist. Posits to see differences more like differentials and derivatives, i.e. as part of a thing itself yet slightly outside it too, rather than comparison with something else. I like that, both point towards the role of [[Feedback Cybernetics 20200402161040]] and derivatives as function sensitivity between inputs and outputs, also point to an actor (in a network of feedbacks) and autonomous response. All this at first glance puts differences (and repetition by extension) in the realm of conscious actors, networks and social systems ([[Sociale Systeemdefinitie van Luhmann 20230211132804]]) Talks about repetition as complex repetition, which puts it in the realm of [[Hoe emergence tot stand komt 20040513173612]]

The main difficulty in selecting child nodes is maintaining some balance between the exploitation of deep variants after moves with high average win rate and the exploration of moves with few simulations.

An illustration of alpha–beta pruning. The grayed-out subtrees don't need to be explored (when moves are evaluated from left to right), since it is known that the group of subtrees as a whole yields the value of an equivalent subtree or worse, and as such cannot influence the final result. The max and min levels represent the turn of the player and the adversary, respectively.
Alpha-Beta pruning comes down to being smart about searching the tree of possible future game states to be more efficient about rollouts.

Tracy Hogg recommended changing diapers during the "E.A.S.Y." routine, specifically during the "A" (Activity) phase. This means after the baby eats (E), you would change the diaper as part of the activity (A) before putting the baby down for sleep (S). This helps to ensure the baby is comfortable and clean before nap time, promoting better sleep quality.
-
Sure, here are the steps from "Secrets of the Baby Whisperer" by Tracy Hogg:
-
E.A.S.Y. Routine:
- E: Eat. The baby eats when they wake up.
- A: Activity. The baby has some playtime or interaction.
- S: Sleep. The baby goes down for a nap.
- Y: Your Time. Parents take time for themselves while the baby sleeps.
-
Understanding Baby Cues:
- Observe and interpret the baby's body language and sounds to understand their needs.
- Learn the difference between hunger cues, tired cues, and other signals.
-
Respect the Baby:
- Treat the baby as an individual with unique needs and preferences.
- Communicate with the baby and explain what you're doing, even if they can't understand the words yet.
-
Establishing a Routine:
- Create a predictable and consistent daily routine to provide structure and security for the baby.
- Adapt the routine as the baby grows and their needs change.
-
The Pick Up/Put Down Method:
- Use a gentle sleep training method to help the baby learn to fall asleep independently.
- Pick up the baby to comfort them when they cry, then put them down once they are calm but still awake.
-
Teaching Self-Soothing:
- Encourage the baby to learn how to soothe themselves to sleep without relying on external aids like feeding or rocking.
- Gradually reduce the amount of intervention as the baby becomes more capable of self-soothing.
-
Balanced Parenting:
- Strive for a balance between being responsive to the baby's needs and setting boundaries.
- Avoid overindulgence or becoming too rigid with routines.
These steps emphasize a gentle, respectful approach to parenting that fosters independence and understanding between parents and their baby.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Comedy routine made famous by Abbott and Costello .mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}For the novel, see Who's on First (novel). For the Voltron episode, see Who's on First (Voltron). Abbott and Costello performing "Who's on First?" "Who's on First?" is a comedy routine made famous by American comedy duo Abbott and Costello. The premise of the sketch is that Abbott is identifying the players on a baseball team for Costello. However, the players' names can simultaneously serve as the basis for questions (e.g., "Who is the first baseman?") and responses (e.g., "The first baseman's name is Who."), leading to reciprocal misunderstanding and growing frustration between the performers. Although it is commonly known as "Who's on First?", Abbott and Costello frequently referred to it simply as "Baseball". History[edit] "Who's on First?" is descended from minstrel and turn-of-the-century wordplay sketches. One of the most famous was developed by Weber and Fields and called "I Work On Watt Street."[1] Other examples include "The Baker Scene" (the comedian "loafs" at a bakery located on Watt Street) and "Who Dyed" (the business owner is named "Who").[1] In the 1930 movie Cracked Nuts, comedians Bert Wheeler and Robert Woolsey examine a map of a mythical kingdom with dialogue like this: "What is next to Which." "What is the name of the town next to Which?" "Yes." In British music halls, comedian Will Hay performed a routine in the early 1930s (and possibly earlier) as a schoolmaster interviewing a schoolboy named Howe, who came from Ware, but now lives in Wye. By the early 1930s, a "Baseball Routine" had become a standard bit in burlesque in the United States. Abbott's wife recalled him performing the routine with another comedian before teaming with Costello.[2] Bud Abbott stated that it was taken from an older routine called "Who's the Boss?",[1] a performance of which can be heard in an episode of the radio comedy program It Pays to Be Ignorant from the 1940s.[3] After they formally teamed up in burlesque in 1936, he and Costello continued to hone the sketch. It was a big hit in the fall of 1937, when they performed the routine in a touring vaudeville revue called Hollywood Bandwagon.[4][5] In February 1938, Abbott and Costello joined the cast of The Kate Smith Hour radio program and the sketch was first performed for a national radio audience on March 24 of that year.[2][1][6] The routine may have been further polished before this broadcast by burlesque producer John Grant, who became the team's chief collaborator, and Will Glickman, a staff writer on the Smith show.[7] Glickman may have added the nicknames of then-contemporary baseball players like Dizzy and Daffy Dean to set up the routine's premise. This version, with extensive wordplay based on most of the fictional baseball team's players having "strange nicknames" that seemed to be questions, became known as "Who's on First?" Some versions continue with references to Enos Slaughter, which Costello misunderstands as "He knows" Slaughter.[8] By 1944, Abbott and Costello had the routine copyrighted.[citation needed]

for the de Broglie–Bohm theory, the particle's spin is not an intrinsic property of the particle; instead spin is, so to speak, in the wavefunction of the particle in relation to the particular device being used to measure the spin. This is an illustration of what is sometimes referred to as contextuality and is related to naive realism about operators.[54] Interpretationally, measurement results are a deterministic property of the system and its environment, which includes information about the experimental setup including the context of co-measured observables; in no sense does the system itself possess the property being measured, as would have been the case in classical physics.

Hypertext fiction is a genre of electronic literature, characterized by the use of hypertext links that provide a new context for non-linearity in literature and reader interaction.
I didn't imagine that hypertext could e realted to electronic literature, but I see this is a very intractive way of reading.
-
The reader typically chooses links to move from one node of text to the next, and in this fashion arranges a story from a deeper pool of potential stories.
It is curious.
-
I think that hypertexts are like a way of reading randomly, because they take you different places.

The Tribunal of the Holy Office of the Inquisition (Spanish: Tribunal del Santo Oficio de la Inquisición), commonly known as the Spanish Inquisition (Inquisición española), was established in 1478 by the Catholic Monarchs, King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Queen Isabella I of Castile. It began toward the end of the Reconquista and was intended to maintain Catholic orthodoxy in their kingdoms and to replace the Medieval Inquisition, which was under papal control. It became the most substantive of the three different manifestations of the wider Catholic Inquisition, along with the Roman Inquisition and the Portuguese Inquisition. The "Spanish Inquisition" may be defined broadly as operating in Spain and in all Spanish colonies and territories, which included the Canary Islands, the Kingdom of Naples,[citation needed] and all Spanish possessions in North America and South America. According to some modern estimates, around 150,000 people were prosecuted for various offences during the three-century duration of the Spanish Inquisition, of whom between 3,000 and 5,000 were executed, approximately 2.7 percent of all cases.[1] The Inquisition, however, since the creation of the American courts, has never had jurisdiction over the indigenous. The King of Spain ordered "that the inquisitors should never proceed against the Indians, but against the old Christians and their descendants and other persons against whom in these kingdoms of Spain it is customary to proceed".[2]

For electoral colleges in general, see Electoral college. For other uses and regions, see Electoral college (disambiguation). Electoral votes, out of 538, allocated to each state and the District of Columbia for presidential elections to be held in 2024 and 2028 based on the 2020 census; every jurisdiction is entitled to at least 3. In the 2020 presidential election (held using 2010 census data) Joe Biden received 306 (●) and Donald Trump 232 (●) of the total 538 electoral votes. In Maine (upper-right) and Nebraska (center), the small circled numbers indicate congressional districts. These are the only 2 states to use a district method for some of their allocated electors, instead of a complete winner-takes-all party block voting. .mw-parser-output .hlist dl,.mw-parser-output

formed every four years during the presidential election for the sole purpose of voting for the president and vice president. The process is described in Article II of the U.S. Constitution.[1] The number of electoral votes a state has equals its number of Senators (2) plus its number of Representatives in the House of Representatives, the latter being dependent on the Census's reported population. Each state appoints electors using legal procedures determined by its legislature, equal in number to its congressional delegation (representatives and 2 senators) totaling 535 electors in the 50 states. A 1961 amendment granted the federal District of Columbia three electors. Of the current 538 electors, a simple majority of 270 or more electoral votes is required to elect the president and vice president. If no candidate achieves a majority there, a contingent election is held by the House of Representatives to elect the president and by the Senate to elect the vice president. Federal office holders, including senators and representatives, cannot be electors. The states and the District of Columbia hold a statewide or district-wide popular vote on Election Day in November to choose electors based upon how they have pledged to vote for president and vice president, with some state laws prohibiting faithless electors. All states except Maine and Nebraska use a party block voting, or general ticket method, to choose their electors, meaning all their electors go to one winning ticket. Maine and Nebraska choose one elector per congressional district and 2 electors for the ticket with the highest statewide vote. The electors meet and vote in December, and the inaugurations of the president and vice president take place in January. The merit of the electoral college system has been a matter of ongoing debate in the United States since its inception at the Constitutional Convention in 1787, becoming more controversial by the latter years of the 19th century, up to the present day.[2][3] More resolutions have been submitted to amend the Electoral College mechanism than any other part of the constitution,[4] with 1969–70 as the closest attempt to reform the Electoral College.[5] Supporters argue that it requires presidential candidates to have broad appeal across the country to win, while critics argue that it is not representative of the popular will of the nation.[a] Winner-take-all systems, especially with representation not proportional to population, do not align with the principle of "one person, one vote".[b][9] Critics object to the inequity that, due to the distribution of electors, individual citizens in states with smaller populations have more voting power than those in larger states.[10] This is because the number of electors each state appoints is equal to the size of its congressional delegation, each state is entitled to at least 3 regardless of its population, and the apportionment of the statutorily fixed number of the rest is only roughly proportional. This allocation has contributed to runners-up of the nationwide popular vote being elected president in 1824, 1876, 1888, 2000, and 2016.[11][12] In addition, faithless electors may not vote in accord with their pledge.[13][c] Further objection is that swing states receive the most attention from candidates.[15] By the end of the 20th century, Electoral colleges had been abandoned by all other democracies around the world in favor of direct elections for an executive president.[16][17]:215 Procedure[edit] The New York electoral college delegation voting for Benjamin Harrison for president. In the 1888 election, Harrison became one of the five presidents elected without winning the popular vote. Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 of the United States Constitution directs each state to appoint a quantity of electors equal to that state's congressional delegation (the number of members of the House of Representatives plus two senators). The same clause empowers each state legislature to determine the manner by which that state's electors are chosen but prohibits federal office holders from being named electors. Following the national presidential election day on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November,[18] each state, and the federal district, selects its electors according to its laws. After a popular election, the states identify and record their appointed electors in a Certificate of Ascertainment, and those appointed electors then meet in their respective jurisdictions and produce a Certificate of Vote for their candidate; both certificates are then sent to Congress to be opened and counted.[19] In 48 of the 50 states, state laws mandate that the winner of the plurality of the statewide popular vote receive all of that state's electoral votes.[20] In Maine and Nebraska, two electoral votes are assigned in this manner, while the remaining electoral votes are allocated based on the plurality o
I am not sure where you get a list of "the electors" who of course are appointed for life, and I am not really sure by whom.
They of course are something similar to the "Supreme Soviet" they are tasked with doing nothing but voting in accordance with the states laws regarddddddddddddddddddddddddding the popular vote, whether to split the elector count based on popular vote or go "all in" per state.
I am downloading a list of all "elected or hopefully nominatively born representatives of each country" to "accompany" THE ACADEMY which glows very bright as a kind of arm or hand or ... mouthpiece of even brain of God in the words of "how to build heaven" and "hwo to do it right" when you get into the message of reading history and reading the difference between "replicators" and "fed five thousand with something like a fish."
fish, shoes, the woman that lived in shoe ... the frog that turned from a tad pole into a t-rex ... there's all kinds of stories about the "letter alpha."
AND The OMEGA.
it doesn't look like my "wget -3" is going to grab a list of presidents, viice presidents or electors, though it will get to this page, and perhaps get all the current senators, and representatives.
Who knows if there's a big difference between this list and the 114th Congress that happened to synchronistically and coincidentally "reign" in the year 2014.
I jsut remember cuz it's the "ADth" you know, like the year Cristobol Colon sailed the Ocean Blue, ADIB, or 1492.
In the year of our lord, Anno Domini; which ChatGPT assures me is "really good latin" for those words, even though it doesn't relaly look like any kind of conjugation or strrrrrrrrrrrrrrrange tense for "annum dominus" which is my latin for saying "year lord" in the latin that ive discerned over the ... years since the news papers stopped putting "A.D." postfixing the year since 0 ... aroud when "after the death of .." or the "before Christ" had something to do with an alternative calendar that goes back another 3 thousand or so years.
It is 5700 something, in Jewish years. Who knows why.

The linguistic phenomenon of "a multi-use, customizable, instantly recognizable, time-worn, quoted or misquoted phrase or sentence that can be used in an entirely open array of different variants" was originally described by linguist Geoffrey K. Pullum in 2003.[2] Pullum later described snowclones as "some-assembly-required adaptable cliché frames for lazy journalists".[1]

Google Wave, later known as Apache Wave, was a software framework for real-time collaborative online editing. Originally developed by Google and announced on May 28, 2009,[1][2][3] it was renamed to Apache Wave when the project was adopted by the Apache Software Foundation as an incubator project in 2010. Wave is a web-based computing platform and communications protocol designed to merge key features of communications media, such as email, instant messaging, wikis, and social networking.[4] Communications using the system can be synchronous or asynchronous. Software extensions provide contextual spelling and grammar checking, automated language translation[2] and other features.[5] Initially released only to developers, a preview release of Google Wave was extended to 100,000 users in September 2009, each allowed to invite additional users. Google accepted most requests submitted starting November 29, 2009, soon after the September extended release of the technical preview. On May 19, 2010, it was released to the general public.[6]

The media attention that Google Knol received at its launch soon dissipated.[4] The site failed to gain a large readership – by mid-2009, Knol as a whole was getting only about 175,000 views a month,[30] compared to Wikipedia, whose views accumulated into the billions. As a result, the financial model behind Knol was never realized.[31] Google stopped promoting Knol,[4] and two years after its inception, few people were aware of Knol's existence.[3] It became apparent that Google had fundamentally misunderstood the reasons for Wikipedia's success.[3]

The reliability of Wikipedia
No one, including me, should have to prove himself or herself to anyone else. Talking about the "reliability of Wikipedia" and allowing people to freely come on the website and enter any information that they wish to enter is very dishonest to readers because there is no truth, for example, about the real past, for example, why people from one country look different from people from another country, instead of something made up.

Literary interpretation has considered the myth of Icarus as a consequence of excessive ambition.[27] An Icarus-related study of the Daedalus myth was published by the French hellenist Françoise Frontisi-Ducroux.[28] In psychology, there have been synthetic studies of the Icarus complex with respect to the alleged relationship between fascination for fire, enuresis, high ambition, and Ascensionism.[29] The term Icarus complex is defined by NGHIALAGI.net as, "A form of overcompensation wherein an individual, due to feelings of inferiority, formulates grandiose aspirations for future achievement despite lacking proper talent, experience, and/or personal connections. Such a person often exhibits elitism fueled by hubris and detachment from social reality."[30] In the psychiatric mind, features of disease were perceived in the shape of the pendulous emotional ecstatic-high and depressive-low of bipolar disorder. Henry Murray having proposed the term Icarus complex, apparently found symptoms particularly in mania where a person is fond of heights, fascinated by both fire and water, narcissistic and observed with fantastical or far-fetched imaginary cognition.[31][32] Seth Godin's 2012 The Icarus Deception, points to the historical change in how Western culture both propagated and interpreted the Icarus myth arguing that "We tend to forget that Icarus was also warned not to fly too low, because seawater would ruin the lift in his wings. Flying too low is even more dangerous than flying too high, because it feels deceptively safe."[33] Each study and analysis of the myth agrees Icarus was too ambitious for his own good.

According to scholia on Euripides, Icarus thought himself greater than Helios, the Sun himself, and the god punished him by directing his powerful rays at him, melting the beeswax. Afterwards, it was Helios who named the Icarian Sea after Icarus.[10]
Was Icarus punished by the gods because he thought himself greater than them (Helios)?

After Theseus, king of Athens and enemy of Minos, escaped from the labyrinth, King Minos suspected that Icarus and Daedalus had revealed the labyrinth's secrets and imprisoned them—either in a large tower overlooking the ocean or the labyrinth itself, depending upon the account.[1][2] Icarus and Daedalus escaped using wings Daedalus constructed from feathers, threads from blankets, clothes, and beeswax.[3] Daedalus warned Icarus first of complacency and then of hubris, instructing him to fly neither too low nor too high, lest the sea's dampness clog his wings or the sun's heat melt them.[3] Icarus ignored Daedalus's instructions not to fly too close to the sun, causing the beeswax in his wings to melt. Icarus fell from the sky, plunged into the sea, and drowned. The myth gave rise to the idiom, "fly too close to the sun." In some versions of the tale, Daedalus and Icarus escape by ship.[1][4]
Minos suspected Theseus and Daedalus gave the secrets of the labyrinth to Ariadne/Theseus. They were imprisoned. They escaped via wings that Daedalus constructed. Icarus was instructed to not fly too high or too low. Too high, and his wings would be burnt. Too low, and his wings would dampen. Icarus flew too close to the sun, and plunged into the ocean. Hence the idiom "fly too close to the sun".

The Gutenberg Bible, also known as the 42-line Bible, the Mazarin Bible or the B42, was the earliest major book printed in Europe using mass-produced metal movable type. It marked the start of the "Gutenberg Revolution" and the age of printed books in the West. The book is valued and revered for its high aesthetic and artistic qualities[1] and its historical significance. The Gutenberg Bible is an edition of the Latin Vulgate printed in the 1450s by Johannes Gutenberg in Mainz, in present-day Germany. Forty-nine copies (or substantial portions of copies) have survived. They are thought to be among the world's most valuable books, although no complete copy has been sold since 1978.[2][3] In March 1455, the future Pope Pius II wrote that he had seen pages from the Gutenberg Bible displayed in Frankfurt to promote the edition, and that either 158 or 180 copies had been printed. The 36-line Bible, said to be the second printed Bible, is also sometimes referred to as a Gutenberg Bible, but may be the work of another printer.[4] Text[edit] Gutenberg Bible in the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut The Gutenberg Bible, an edition of the Vulgate, contains the Latin version of the Hebrew Old Testament and the Greek New Testament. It is mainly the work of St Jerome who began his work on the translation in AD 380, with emendations from the Parisian Bible tradition, and further divergences.[5] Printing history[edit] Gutenberg Bible of the New York Public Library; purchased by James Lenox in 1847, it was the first Gutenberg Bible to be acquired by a United States citizen. While it is unlikely that any of Gutenberg's early publications would bear his name, the initial expense of press equipment and materials and of the work to be done before the Bible was ready for sale suggests that he may have started with more lucrative texts, including several religious documents, a German poem, and some editions of Aelius Donatus's Ars Minor, a popular Latin grammar school book.[6][7][8] Preparation of the Bible probably began soon after 1450, and the first finished copies were available in 1454 or 1455.[9] It is not known exactly how long the Bible took to print. The first precisely datable printing is Gutenberg's 31-line Indulgence which certainly existed by 22 October 1454.[10] Gutenberg made three significant changes during the printing process.[11] Spine of the Lenox copy Some time later, after more sheets had been printed, the number of lines per page was increased from 40 to 42, presumably to save paper. Therefore, pages 1 to 9 and pages 256 to 265, presumably the first ones printed, have 40 lines each. Page 10 has 41, and from there on the 42 lines appear. The increase in line number was achieved by decreasing the interline spacing, rather than increasing the printed area of the page. Finally, the print run was increased, necessitating resetting those pages which had already been printed. The new sheets were all reset to 42 lines per page. Consequently, there are two distinct settings in folios 1–32 and 129–158 of volume I and folios 1–16 and 162 of volume II.[11][12] The most reliable information about the Bible's date comes from a letter. In March 1455, the future Pope Pius II wrote that he had seen pages from the Gutenberg Bible, being displayed to promote the edition, in Frankfurt.[13] It is not known how many copies were printed, with the 1455 letter citing sources for both 158 and 180 copies. Scholars today think that examination of surviving copies suggests that somewhere between 160 and 185 copies were printed, with about three-quarters on paper and the others on vellum.[14][15] The production process: Das Werk der Bücher[edit] A vellum copy of the Gutenberg Bible owned by the U.S. Library of Congress, on display at the Thomas Jefferson Building in Washington, D.C. In a legal paper, written after completion of the Bible, Johannes Gutenberg refers to the process as Das Werk der Bücher ("the work of the books"). He had introduced the printing press to Europe and created the technology to make printing with movable types finally efficient enough to facilitate the mass production of entire books.[16] Many book-lovers have commented on the high standards achieved in the production of the Gutenberg Bible, some describing it as one of the most beautiful books ever printed. The quality of both the ink and other materials and the printing itself have been noted.[1] Pages[edit] First page of the first volume: the epistle of St Jerome to Paulinus from the University of Texas copy. The page has 40 lines. The paper size is 'double folio', with two pages printed on each side (four pages per sheet). After printing the paper was folded once to the size of a single page. Typically, five of these folded sheets (ten leaves, or twenty printed pages) were combined to a single physical section, called a quinternion, that could then be bound into a book. Some sections, however, had as few as four leaves or as many as twelve leaves.[17] Gutenberg Bible on display at the U.S. Library of Congress The 42-line Bible was printed on the size of paper known as 'Royal'.[18] A full sheet of Royal paper measures 42 cm × 60 cm (17 in × 24 in) and a single untrimmed folio leaf measures 42 cm × 30 cm (17 in × 12 in).[19] There have been attempts to claim that the book was printed on larger paper measuring 44.5 cm × 30.7 cm (17.5 in × 12.1 in),[20] but this assertion is contradicted by the dimensions of existing copies. For example, the leaves of the copy in the Bodleian Library, Oxford, measure 40 cm × 28.6 cm (15.7 in × 11.3 in).[21] This is typical of other folio Bibles printed on Royal paper in the fifteenth century.[22] Most fifteenth-century printing papers have a width-to-height ratio of 1:1.4 (e.g. 30:42 cm) which, mathematically, is a ratio of 1 to the square root of 2 or, simply, 2 {\textstyle {\sqrt {2}}} . Many suggest that this ratio was chosen to match the so-called Golden Ratio, 1 + 5 2 {\textstyle {\tfrac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}} , of 1:1.6; in fact the ratios are, plainly, not at all similar (equating to a difference of about 12 per cent). The ratio of 1:1.4 was a long established one for medieval paper sizes.[23] A single complete copy of the Gutenberg Bible has 1,288 pages (4×322 = 1288) (usually bound in two volumes); with four pages per folio-sheet, 322 sheets of paper are required per copy.[24] The Bible's paper consists of linen fibers and is thought to have been imported from Caselle in Piedmont, Italy based on the watermarks present throughout the volume.[25] Ink

If a Tree Falls in the Forest, and There's No One Around to Hear It, Does It Make a Sound?
The age-old question of whether a falling tree makes a sound when there's no one around to hear it exploits the tension between perception and reality. This article explores possible answers and their consequences.

By Jack Maden | September 2022
If a tree falls in the forest, and there's no one around to hear it, does it make a sound? Well, if by 'sound' we mean vibrating air, then yes, when the tree falls, it vibrates the air around it.
However, if by 'sound' we mean the conscious noise we hear when our sensory apparatus interacts with the vibrating air, then if no one is around to hear the tree when it falls, there'd be no sensory apparatus for the vibrating air to interact with, and thus no conscious noise would be heard.
So, the answer to this age-old question seems to be simple: it depends on how we define 'sound'. If we define it as 'vibrating air', the falling tree makes a sound. If we define it as a conscious experience, the lonesome falling tree does not make a sound.
There, problem solved.
The point of asking this question, however, is not so that it can be answered quickly and put aside.
Rather, its point is to draw out the rather strange tension between our two very different definitions of the word 'sound'.
On the one hand, we classify sound as a mechanistic process that exists without us, 'out there' in the world. On the other, we regard it as a private conscious experience, its existence entirely dependent on us.
And when you dwell on this latter definition, you realize it doesn't just extend to sounds. Everything we experience --- everything we see, hear, smell, touch, taste --- all of it depends on our sensory apparatus, on us. Without us, our experiences would not exist.
As the great 16th-century astronomer Galileo Galilei put it:
Tastes, odors, colors, and so on... reside only in consciousness. If the living creature were removed, all these qualities would be wiped away and annihilated.
Take away our senses, and the world of our experience would be replaced by a colorless, soundless, odorless, tasteless nothingness. Without us, what remains?
The reason our original question --- When a tree falls in the forest, and there's no one around to hear it, does it make a sound? --- is such a teaser, is because it hits on a deeper question. Namely:
If there was no conscious life, would the physical universe exist?
Our kneejerk reaction to this question might be, 'of course it would'. But let's think about it again: if there was nothing conscious, then nothing would be experienced. There would be nothing resembling anything we call 'existence'. No colors, no sounds, no smells, no tastes, no touch, no sense of time, no sense of space.

Is consciousness more fundamental than matter?
Reflecting on this strange state of affairs, numerous great thinkers have concluded that consciousness must be more fundamental than the 'stuff' that consciousness experiences.
Sponsored By Southwest Airlines

For instance, in his 1710 work, A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge, the philosopher George Berkeley discusses the absurdity of a world existing independently of our conscious minds:
It is indeed an opinion strangely prevailing amongst people that houses, mountains, rivers, and in a word all sensible objects, have an existence natural or real, distinct from their being perceived by the understanding... for what are the forementioned objects but things we perceive by sense? And what do we perceive besides our own ideas or sensations? And is it not plainly repugnant that any one of these or any combination of them should exist unperceived?
On this view, it is absurd to say a lonesome falling tree makes a sound. For Berkeley, it is absurd to say the tree, without a conscious mind there perceiving it, even exists. (You can learn more about his mind-bending arguments for this position in our short explainer piece on Berkeley's subjective idealism, his theory that the world is in our minds).
But to conclude this brief reflection on the tension between perception and reality, consider a comment from the Nobel Prize-winning quantum physicist Max Planck in a 1931 interview (italics added):
I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness.
What do you think? Can we get behind consciousness?

The Road Not Taken
Launch Audio in a New Window
BY ROBERT FROST
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I---
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Ulysses moves through four emotional stages that are self-revelatory, not ironic: beginning with his rejection of the barren life to which he has returned in Ithaca, he then fondly recalls his heroic past, recognizes the validity of Telemachus' method of governing, and with these thoughts plans another journey.[9]
See Ulysses in relation to cycle in Romanticism: alienation, desire, transfiguration. Journeying for him is a way to transfigure
-
Culler himself views "Ulysses" as a dialectic in which the speaker weighs the virtues of a contemplative and an active approach to life;[8]
-
The ironic interpretations of "Ulysses" may be the result of the modern tendency to consider the narrator of a dramatic monologue as necessarily "unreliable".
-
Scholars disagree on how Ulysses' speech functions in this format; it is not necessarily clear to whom Ulysses is speaking, if anyone, and from what location. Some see the verse turning from a soliloquy to a public address, as Ulysses seems to speak to himself in the first movement, then to turn to an audience as he introduces his son, and then to relocate to the seashore where he addresses his mariners.[5]
To whom does Ulysses speak to?
-
Ulysses has returned to his kingdom, Ithaca, having made a long journey home after fighting in the Trojan War. Confronted again by domestic life, Ulysses expresses his lack of contentment, including his indifference toward the "savage race" (line 4) whom he governs. Ulysses contrasts his present restlessness with his heroic past, and contemplates his old age and eventual death
-
For much of this poem's history, readers viewed Ulysses as resolute and heroic, admiring him for his determination "To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield".[1] The view that Tennyson intended a heroic character is supported by his statements about the poem, and by the events in his life—the death of his closest friend—that prompted him to write it. In the twentieth century, some new interpretations of "Ulysses" highlighted potential ironies in the poem. They argued, for example, that Ulysses wishes to selfishly abandon his kingdom and family, and they questioned more positive assessments of Ulysses' character by demonstrating how he resembles flawed protagonists in earlier literature.
Is Ulysses a heroic poem? Or, is it selfishness?
-
Most critics, however, find that Tennyson's Ulysses recalls Dante's Ulisse in his Inferno (c. 1320).
Tennyson drawing from Dante's Ulisse?
-
Alfred, Lord Tennyson, author of "Ulysses", portrayed by George Frederic Watts "Ulysses" is a poem in blank verse by the Victorian poet Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809–1892), written in 1833 and published in 1842 in his well-received second volume of poetry. An oft-quoted poem, it is a popular example of the dramatic monologue. Facing old age, mythical hero Ulysses describes his discontent and restlessness upon returning to his kingdom, Ithaca, after his far-ranging travels. Despite his reunion with his wife Penelope and his son Telemachus, Ulysses yearns to explore again.

Odysseus has traditionally been viewed as Achilles' antithesis in the Iliad:[35] while Achilles' anger is all-consuming and of a self-destructive nature, Odysseus is frequently viewed as a man of the mean, a voice of reason, renowned for his self-restraint and diplomatic skills.

Perhaps, Odysseus represent more order, reason, thus logos? Whereas, Achilles is more impulsive, but very powerful, thus more Mythos?

Helen (Ancient Greek: Ἑλένη, romanized: Helénē[a]), also known as Helen of Troy,[2][3][b] in Latin as Helena,[4] beautiful Helen, Helen of Argos, or Helen of Sparta,[5] was a figure in Greek mythology said to have been the most beautiful woman in the world. She was believed to have been the daughter of Zeus and Leda, and was the sister of Clytemnestra, Castor and Pollux, Philonoe, Phoebe and Timandra. She was married to King Menelaus of Sparta "who became by her the father of Hermione, and, according to others, of Nicostratus also."[4] Her abduction by Paris of Troy was the most immediate cause of the Trojan War.
