Reminds me of my 2008/2010 projects in primary schools on this. I find myself explaining marketing ploys to our 6yo in response to material she sees in print, on billboards, and online. Perhaps I should be doing that more consistently

1968 calling. Chemicals as blunt tool, electronics as potential finer tool. Reminds me of a dinnerconversation with Howard and Judy where someone else, much younger, praised LSD as potential mind expanding tool. J said "You wouldn't say that if like me you'd had spent the late 60s puking your guts out in the bathroom all the time". Bluntness of the chemical tool explained :D

This reminds me of "Mr. Hurst also made her a slight bow, and said he was 'very glad'" (P&P chapter 11)

I'm most impressed by the workflow implications of these. Reminds me that these are tools and considering them as such is powerful. Just as focusing on one writing tool is limiting, so is the case with visual tools. The aim is workflows, not tools.

If you are lucky and do not let jealousy get to you you will prosper. But do not let it get to your head and become ungrateful. Is what this section reminds me of.

that sounds like a useful analogy. Prompting like you are the algo's improv partner. The flipside seems to be the impact the author himself is after: being prompted along new lines of inquiry, making the script your improv partner in return.

This is intriguing, seeing a similar return on prompting GPT-3 as from blogging. After reading this essay the first time, I played with GPT-3 myself, and even from a first attempt it is clear what he means. It feels like a similar process, prompting GPT-3 and pushing a notion, bookmark or question into my blog's feed. The first reactions on both types bring similar levels of surprial. What is however missing from GPT-3 in comparison with my blog is that blog networks are more than a 1-on-1 prompt and respons. They form larger feedback loops, which in turn lifts signals above the noise.

This reminds me of Tom Musgrave in The Watsons waiting in his own room to conveniently arrive at the same time as, and become part of, the Osborne party

Ruben is quoting Geoff Marshall in a video here. I recognise what Ruben says about his mental health, the melancholic funk, both from myself and E. Sometimes the current months are harder than when the pandemic first hit. Things seem normal, except they aren't. Geoff suggests adding new experiences now, so they become part of his future nostalgia, as a counterbalance to the past two years. Not pushing stuff away but balancing it. Reminds me a bit of what I used to say about 'hiding' unwanted Google results: publish more online so that it balances out and the unwanted things aren't the dominant search results.

This reminds me of Elinor Dashwood's "I never think of tame and quiet children with any abhorrence." (S&S chapter 21)

This reminds me of Tom Bertram, the elder brother, responding to concern from his younger brother about the proposed amateur theatricals at Mansfield Park. "Manage your own concerns, Edmund, and I’ll take care of the rest of the family" (MP chapter 13). It feels very much like "I'm the older sibling, I know what I'm doing"

This is brilliant - reminds me of a Kano analysis

https://www.kevinmarks.com/memex.html

I got stuck over the weekend, so I totally missed Kevin Marks' memex demo at IndieWebCamp's Create Day, but it is an interesting little UI experiment.

I'll always maintain that Vannevar Bush really harmed the first few generations of web development by not mentioning the word commonplace book in his conceptualization. Marks heals some of this wound by explicitly tying the idea of memex to that of the zettelkasten however. John Borthwick even mentions the idea of "networked commonplace books". [I suspect a little birdie may have nudged this perspective as catnip to grab my attention—a ruse which is highly effective.]

Some of Kevin's conceptualization reminds me a bit of Jerry Michalski's use of The Brain which provides a specific visual branching of ideas based on the links and their positions on the page: the main idea in the center, parent ideas above it, sibling ideas to the right/left and child ideas below it. I don't think it's got the idea of incoming or outgoing links, but having a visual location on the page for incoming links (my own site has incoming ones at the bottom as comments or responses) can be valuable.

I'm also reminded a bit of Kartik Prabhu's experiments with marginalia and webmention on his website which plays around with these ideas as well as their visual placement on the page in different methods.

MIT MediaLab's Fold site (details) was also an interesting sort of UI experiment in this space.

It also seems a bit reminiscent of Kevin Mark's experiments with hovercards in the past as well, which might be an interesting way to do the outgoing links part.

Next up, I'd love to see larger branching visualizations of these sorts of things across multiple sites... Who will show us those "associative trails"?

Another potential framing for what we're all really doing is building digital versions of Indigenous Australian's songlines across the web. Perhaps this may help realize Margo Neale and Lynne Kelly's dream for a "third archive"?

I find this section interesting because of its repeated mentioning of the words “dark” and “odors.” There is also an immediate reference to “light” and “shadow” afterwards. This reminds me of a passage in the previous reading. It seems like the author likes using light and darkness and the contrast between them.

This sentence reminds me of our discussion on how shorter, terse sentences/phrases tend to be "punchier." The boy clearly wants to go to the bazaar because of the girl to buy something, yet his uncle had forgotten to give him money. This short sentence perfectly encapsulates how the feelings of disappointment and frustration.

I like the idea of "sharing power and authority." This reminds me of Kleon's "genius vs. scenius."

Reminds me of one year and one anime I watched, its company, I believe it was Funimation had YouTube take down all videos that used that anime's clips, including fan made videos, so the company was the only account with that anime's footage

This reminds me of a similar discussion regarding Youtube and movie scenes, behind the scenes footage, or soundtrack music, and to an extension fan made videos. Since in the before times such materials would be found on the film's official DVDs/Blu-Rays and soundtrack album, the discussion was about if uploading those materials and/or editing them to make fan creative content would fall under regarding both ethics and legal issues since the sharing of the film contents via Youtube makes it free for watching or listening instead of having to buy the film or soundtraack to have access.

This kind of reminds me of like fan-fiction that are based off of known famous people. Made up stories about real people though not thought of as an invasion of privacy like this situation.

The way this is written reminds me of the way people talk about their arch-nemesis... specifically the way timmy turner's dad says "dinkleberg". Im visualizing stede shaking his fist like a cartoon villain

This reminds me of the quote “you are your own worst critic”

this is a little too relatable. I feel like I need a place to rest or sit down all the time, and there are very few locations where this is actually possible. also, this reminds me of the study of psychogeography and the fact that there are almost no benches or accessible resting options in downtown Seattle and various other neighborhoods.

This reminds me of an essay I read long ago about conservatism (I think), which describes the value for people in being and/or feeling part of ‘the eternal round’ (or something like that). In part it’s a desire for your children and grandchildren to live in the same world as you, the depth of that connection.

This reminds me of the “Baa! Baa!” of the sheep. It seems like the narratir likes using descriptions of repetitive sound as well.

There are more characters and dialogues in this story. It reminds me of the conversational attribution we discussed earlier. But there were only two people at the time, and it might be possible to infer who said each sentence by calculation, but here, there are more people who build the dialogue together. Although most sentences are followed by a speaker's name, can the computer infer these few sentences without a speaker's name?

This reminds me of a catholic prayer. Also looking into it more, I wonder where "Rest at Last" is italicized and why death is capitalized. It makes me wonder, because rest at last and death are usually used interchangeable in other context.

Jennings' thoughts of self-worth, and the fact that he's brightened up by a modicum of kindness, reminds me of how tragic his isolation and history is.

This reminds me of Betteredge's view on the benefits of being "superior to reason," a view he first presents after Cuff points Miss Rachel's suspicions behavior out to him. My interpretation of this is that Betteredge believes it is good to hold on to certain beliefs firmly, even when reason may suggest that they are wrong.

Again we see a generalization of women; reminds me of Betteredge's comments before. This would be interesting to think about computational analysis-wise.

This reminds me of Mr. Murthwaite's saying that the three Indians are perfectly great people even though they would not hesitate to kill for the Moonstone.

The irony is that she spoke in one way but but actually acted in another. However, I think she is not repulsive. It's the aristocratic education she received in her childhood that made her conservative. It reminds me of Lady Gratham in Downtown Abby.

This passage reminds me of another novel, "The Lord of the Rings", and how the power of the ring in that novel also poisoned the brain of its owner. The main difference between the two examples is that the ring in the Lord of The Rings is a magical object, while the Moonstone only has magical affects on people (it itself does not have any intrinsic magic properties)

There is a clear conflict here that reminds me of the topic of superstitious discussed yesterday. For Indians, they have a strong belief in the moonstone, and for them anything they do is a sacrifice (even life can be sacrificed). However, to the foreign British (such as the narrator), they are just murdering thiefs. The narrator does not understand this belief of the Indians. It is actually a conflict beween cultural beliefs.

I found this portion of the text very interesting. I am not sure if this text has any relation, but it reminds me of Ash Wednesday. Growing up catholic, my mom would always make me go to mass before school so my ashes would be on all day so everyone can see. This Moonstone seems like a similar resemblance to the ashes on your forehead because it signifies who you are and what you stand for.

This reminds me of the recent scandal involving the YouTuber Emma Chamberlain. At the 2022 Met Gala, Chamberlain wore a yellow diamond choker that had allegedly been stolen from India by the British Empire during colonial times. The necklace, which was commissioned as an heirloom piece by Maharaja of Patiala, allegedly went missing in 1948 before it was auctioned to Cartier in 1982. Chamberlain faced controversy over the imperialist and colonialist roots of the diamond. I wonder if this novel will follow similar themes.

i’m always like why don’t i like harry v much and then i realize he reminds me of me but i do feel like i like myself but anyway!!!! this would be me to a T

I was 17 when Amanda Knox was wrongfully convicted and sentenced to 26 years in an Italian prison, but I think my parents followed the story more closely than I did as I vaguely remembered the details of her case (until reading this article of course) but I immediately knew who she was upon reading her name in the headline. While what happened to Amanda was horrific and completely unjust, this kind of situation is not uncommon especially if you are anything but white. This story reminds me of the Central Park Five, the five young black boys coerced by police into admitting that they brutally beat and raped a woman and left her for dead in Central Park, 1989. The similarities between the two cases, besides the wrongful conviction, being shoddy police work and unfair treatment by the media. The shoddy police work is what really grinds my gears. American or Italian, they were pressured so heavily to place blame quickly and preserve their reputations that ultimately their biases against the American woman or the black boys and their inability to admit their mistakes determined the accused. How are they not heavily under investigation especially after the accused were eventually exonerated? How are people that are so easily willing to lock up innocent people to save their own jobs allowed to be a part of a justice system?

For some reason this reminds me of "everyone who posts on the internet is using marketing tactics now" – no, the people whose posts on the internet you see are using marketing tactics

The wildness that lurks beneath modernity, reminds me of the racketeer guy from Atlas Shrugged. I guess there is a sect of the elites that want to speciate, Homo Deus.

While complex systems these days has connotations of being more fragile or more challenging to fix, In evolutionary biology, complexity has evolved in organisms to make them more adaptable, more fit. Human beings are complex organisms. Most of our brain is dedicated to solving one type of problem or another, we anticipate the world and problem solving involves choosing the best option based on anticipation and our models.

An organism acts under uncertainty to reduce it to meet its objective.

reminds me of elementary school :(

https://www.zylstra.org/blog/2022/06/spring-83/

I've been thinking about this sort of thing off and on myself.

I too almost immediately thought of Fraidyc.at and its nudge at shifting the importance of content based on time and recency. I'd love to have a social reader with additional affordances for both this time shifting and Ton's idea of reading based on social distance.

I'm struck by the seemingly related idea of @peterhagen's LindyLearn platform and annotations: https://annotations.lindylearn.io/new/ which focuses on taking some of the longer term interesting ideas as the basis for browsing and chewing on. Though even here, one needs some of the odd, the cutting edge, and the avant garde in their balanced internet diet. Would Spring '83 provide some of this?

I'm also struck by some similarities this has with the idea of Derek Siver's /now page movement. I see some updating regularly while others have let it slip by the wayside. Still the "board" of users exists, though one must click through a sea of mostly smiling and welcoming faces to get to it the individual pieces of content. (The smiling faces are more inviting and personal than the cacophony of yelling and chaos I see in models for Spring '83.) This reminds me of Stanley Meyers' frequent assertion that he attempted to design a certain "sense of quiet" into the early television show Dragnet to balance the seeming loudness of the everyday as well as the noise of other contemporaneous television programming.

The form reminds me a bit of the signature pages of one's high school year book. But here, instead of the goal being timeless scribbles, one has the opportunity to change the message over time. Does the potential commercialization of the form (you know it will happen in a VC world crazed with surveillance capitalism) follow the same trajectory of the old college paper facebook? Next up, Yearbook.com!

Beyond the thing as a standard, I wondered what the actual form of Spring '83 adds to a broader conversation? What does it add to the diversity of voices that we don't already see in other spaces. How might it be abused? Would people come back to it regularly? What might be its emergent properties?

It definitely seems quirky and fun in and old school web sort of way, but it also stresses me out looking at the zany busyness of some of the examples of magazine stands. The general form reminds me of the bargain bins at book stores which have the promise of finding valuable hidden gems and at an excellent price, but often the ideas and quality of what I find usually isn't worth the discounted price and the return on investment is rarely worth the effort. How might this get beyond these forms?

It also brings up the idea of what other online forms we may have had with this same sort of raw experimentation? How might the internet have looked if there had been a bigger rise of the wiki before that of the blog? What would the world be like if Webmention had existed before social media rose to prominence? Did we somehow miss some interesting digital animals because the web rose so quickly to prominence without more early experimentation before its "Cambrian explosion"?

I've been thinking about distilled note taking forms recently and what a network of atomic ideas on index cards look like and what emerges from them. What if the standard were digital index cards that linked and cross linked to each other, particularly in a world without adherence to time based orders and streams? What does a new story look like if I can pull out a card either at random or based on a single topic and only see it or perhaps some short linked chain of ideas (mine or others) which come along with it? Does the choice of a random "Markov monkey" change my thinking or perspective? What comes out of this jar of Pandora? Is it just a new form of cadavre exquis?

This standard has been out for a bit and presumably folks are experimenting with it. What do the early results look like? How are they using it? Do they like it? Does it need more scale? What do small changes make to the overall form?

For more on these related ideas, see: https://hypothes.is/search?q=tag%3A%22spring+%2783%22

Reminds me of a common trope in technology: frictionless user experience. But for whom are these technologies very much a rough experience?

This reminds me of my preferred approach to UI development. I can't get behind using design tools to completely architect solutions - I'd rather write the HTML myself and explore different elements, then pick the best ideas that emerge and continue with them! In this way embracing the idiosyncrasies of the web platform is a wonderful experience.

However, I'm not sure how we tolerate system specific peculiarities in other ways - it just doesn't make sense to rewrite every program for every device everywhere, which is why we have abstractions and standards. Business logic should always work the way it's designed!

reminds me of Project Xanadu

This reminds me of those trad memes that have been widely circulated, often with zero regard to or knowledge of their origins in rightwing and white supremacist/nationalist spaces. Rather, the context has sometimes been completely rewritten to something less politically charged. What does it mean for someone to laugh at a meme, someone who the meme's original creators probably hate?? The image sparks these debates too, across social networks!

This reminds me of the issue of announcing attainments in Buddhism.

This reminds me of young Buddhist monks being made to stare at decomposing bodies.

This is so sophmoric. It reminds me of the mean kids in high school.

This reminds me of various criticisms of smart cities' reliance on data for both operation and evaluation, as there are ways of knowing that data completely overlooks and, perhaps, can never truly see.

See The City is Not a Computer.

Reminds me of Hannah Arendt's critique of attempts to replace governance with design. When we try to design around the inherent chaos/disorganization of communities instead of strategizing with it, we get problems.

It kinda reminds me of Wikipedia's model. But are there tools/systems in place like Wikipedia has that prevent abuse?

One starts education with where the student is. But mustn't we also inventory what tools and attitudes the student brings? What tools beyond basic literacy do they have? (Usually we presume literacy, but rarely go beyond this and the lack of literacy is too often viewed as failure, particularly as students get older.) Do they have motion, orality, song, visualization, memory? How can we focus on also utilizing these tools and modalities for learning.

Link to the idea that Donald Trump, a person who managed to function as a business owner and president of the United States, was less than literate, yet still managed to function in modern life as an example. In fact, perhaps his focus on oral modes of communication, and the blurrable lines in oral communicative meaning (see [[technobabble]]) was a major strength in his communication style as a means of rising to power?

Just as the populace has lost non-literacy based learning and teaching techniques so that we now consider the illiterate dumb, stupid, or lesser than, Western culture has done this en masse for entire populations and cultures.

Even well-meaning educators in the edtech space that are trying to now center care and well-being are completely missing this piece of the picture. There are much older and specifically non-literate teaching methods that we have lost in our educational toolbelts that would seem wholly odd and out of place in a modern college classroom. How can we center these "missing tools" as educational technology in a modern age? How might we frame Indigenous pedagogical methods as part of the emerging third archive?

aside on serendipity

As I was writing this note I had a toaster pop up notification in my email client with the arrival of an email by Scott Young with the title "You should pay for Tutors" which prompted me to add a link to this note. It reminds me of a related idea that Indigenous cultures likely used information and knowledge transfer as a means of payment (Lynne Kelly, Knowledge and Power). I have commented previously on the serendipity of things like auto correct or sparks of ideas while reading as a means of interlinking knowledge, but I don't recall experiencing this sort of serendipity leading to combinatorial creativity as a means of linking ideas,

Reviewer #2 (Public Review):

This is a behavioural study (healthy participants) looking at how people trade-off a brief phasic pain stimulus with a monetary reward. People make pairwise choices between a painful electrical stimulus and an amount of money, with different groups receiving offers from different ranges (0-5$; 0-10$) and distributions (skew or not). This allows the authors to estimate indifference points.

There were several findings:

i) a curvilinear intensity x value function, regardless of context.<br /> ii) a context effect: people require more money to accept pain if the range of offers is higher<br /> iii) decisions slowed when accepting pain, especially for high pain<br /> iv) higher trait harm avoidance was associated with high pain avoidance in the task<br /> v) with a skewed (exponential) distribution of trials, subjects end up accepting less pain, but tend to accept higher offers when made.

Some comments on each finding:

i) interpreting the shape (linear, non-linear) of the value function is always a bit tricky - it reminds me of the old data on the power law for stimulus response functions. But especially the issue here is that ratings or %tolerance is bounded, but intensity isn't, so inherently one is likely to get a non-linear function when doing any mapping onto a bounded scale. Of course this isn't really the main point of the study, but is worth noting

ii) the context effects are interesting. Similar effects were shown by Vlaev for the context effect of range. The effect of exponential distribution I think is consistent with Chater's model of relative value effects.

iii) Slower decisions with more pain are interesting. Fields's motivation-decision model deals with inhibiting pain when accepting 'greater' rewards, and shows slower innate pain responses (e.g. tail-flick). Did the authors gather intensity ratings? The lack of a choice difficulty effect is also interesting - is a drift diffusion model applicable (I don't think they placed time-pressure on the response)?

iv) The harm-avoidance finding is not that surprising. How did the authors correct for multiple comparisons across the 5 principal components?

v) for the greater profitability index - is this confounded by the fact that these subjects overall received less pain. This would an issue, for instance, if there was a cumulative effect of overall pain ('I can only take so many pains in one experiment')?

So overall, the study supports and adds to previous findings of a context-dependency deriving from the distribution of rewards, which is a deviation from conventional rational choice theory. It's a nice experiment, appropriately powered and carefully executed, and develops the ideas behind the behavioural economics of pain.

reminds me of locket but web-based and with full user agency to create what they want. their own little pocket of the internet. Love the no account part and think that's super important..

Reminds me of the neocities webgardens (that list of creators is incomplete), doing something like this with iframes and friendly convention.

I want to echo this point about the database making it more advantageous, since it coincides with the exact idea that you mention later: they want to secure the humanity of those that weren't able to have that autonomy. There are so many records of human life lost for the fact that it was not valued as much as others, and it reminds me of the erasure Indigenous people face as well. The repression and potential subsequent loss of their native languages, the lack of acknowledgement for their humanity in many cases, (i.e. Ecuador is currently dealing with numerous lives lost in regards to Indigenous rights now), so a database as so crucial for the history of many different people. I wonder if there is something as such for specific Indigenous peoples around the world.

I'm grateful for this thinking. The commercial sales pitch for Father's Day is aggressive in its hegemony -- the disconnected father celebrated on the one day a year he is made to engage. This reflection reminds me of the ethos of the origins of Mother's Day, started by peace activists and public health advocates. It was about the unique position of the mother to advocate against the meaningless deaths of her children -- especially sons in war. What is the equivalent ethos for Father's Day, a day whose roots are deeply entrenched in Catholicism and patriarchy?

An interesting list of readings on annotation.

I'm curious if anyone has an open Zotero bibliography for this area? https://www.zotero.org/search/?p=2&q=annotation&type=group

of which the following look interesting: - https://www.zotero.org/groups/2586310/annotation - https://www.zotero.org/groups/2423071/annotated - https://www.zotero.org/groups/2898045/social_annotation

This reminds me to revisit Zocurelia as well: https://zocurelia.com

This paragraph reminds me of my personal experience of working with social enterprises. When I was in charge of a corporate social responsibility project, I had to do marketing but there was no available data of the company's csr activities. Same way as the young adults did, I had do gather data from local welfare centers and scraps of data from the company database that proved that the company is really a social enterprise and not whitewashing its brand. It seems that collaboration between local youth and companies can make progress in the digital humanities field in various sectors and methods.

This reminds me of the point made in chapter 1 about there being a lack of data surrounding maternal/birth data. It raises the question, "what data should we be recording?" and "when should we start recording data?". On one hand, one may argue that we should start collecting data as soon as it becomes significant, that is, there is a pattern to be seen. However, not all data can be treated in such a way. Perhaps yes, if you rolled a die that kept landing on 6, after the 4th time you may decide to collect data on how many times the die lands on 6 as there seems to be a pattern of it happening. You can't use the same logic when it comes to the example the is presented in the first paragraph of this chapter, that is, a number of black children being killed by white drivers at a very specific spot. At which point does one decide to start collecting data, and does it imply that the first few children killed were not important enough to start taking data then?<br /> It is something I hadn't much considered before these chapters, the idea that with humanities based data there is a vaguenesses as to how to deal with the data, because in many cases the data reflects real human lives. This then opens the door to another question I'll have to keep in mind as I go through this class, "what are the ethics of the digital humanities?".

Great example of instagram # projects and initiatives, it reminds me of the recent Roe v. Wade protests on instagram about reproductive justice.

This reminds me of public toilets in urban construction. It is not hard to find that the number of men's and women's toilets is the same in almost all cities. Because most urban designers/planners in cities are men, they don't need or take into account that women have menstrual problems and may take longer to go to the bathroom, which is why there is always a line in the women's room and an empty men's room.

This consideration of title got me thinking about the connotations surrounding the word "humanities". There's a good point brought up by the fact that "humanities computing" carries with it a sense of needing to know computer science in order to understand it, due to the term "computing". "Digitized" sounds like physical archives were photographed and uploaded online somewhere, which is an understatement as Miriam Posner's "How Did They Make That?" shows that the field is not simply about digitizing information, but instead using digital tools to present qualitative information in new and interesting ways. It reminds me of two years ago when I took LACOL's data science class, but with more of a focus on other things that I hadn't considered before.

When watching the LACOL DH introduction videos, I made a Slack comment on what I thought humanities meant to me and stated that I wasn't sure but cited literature and music amongst the first things that came to mind when I heard the word. "Humanities" carries a connotation associated mainly with the arts and history. I don't know if this is strictly personal and based off of both the culture and education system I grew up in prior to college, but "arts and history" feels like an understatement as well. The humanities looks not just at things, but the science behind those things. Take writing for example, when I initially started my creative writing minor I expected the classes to simply be writing drills and the occasional analysis of classical literature. However, it is instead the in depth look at what makes literature the way it is, hence why writing is called "a craft". Much like the research I do for my neuroscience major, my humanities minor pushes me to study different parts of a whole and see how they work together to form a finished product.

Therefore, although the title "Digital Humanities" stuck, is there not still a connotation that this title carries? Much like how use of the word "computing" would appeal more to those with more computing skill and "digitized" would imply simple digitization of already existing material, "digital humanities" carries its own implications. Fitzpatrick touches on this, yet, although the name has already stuck, and it would be confusing to change it now, I do wonder both what connotations the name holds for a variety of people and how that could be changed.

This wording is really interesting because it almost seems to frame public transit itself as the root cause of gentrification rather than the way it's marketed and used to further development. As this article mentions, this wasn't always the case and living by railways, etc was once a sign of less desirable neighbourhoods which means perceptions of whether this is a attractive things or not has to be constructed. This also reminds me of the findings of Gebru and Buolamwini that facial recognition technology is much less likely to detect dark skinned people's faces, and the subsequent tweet from an Indigenous man about how he would like it kept that way so he doesn't get over surveilled. This is an issue worth interrogating but the solution definitely requires a feminist lens and to look at other factors and context

This reminds me of the debate currently taking place over the Broadway plan https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/vancouver-tenants-union-broadway-plan-renters-survey

Indeed. This reminds me of Mehal Shah's Ignite talk, "Fighting Dirty in Scrabble." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1aq6sJEuVU

I find this interesting here. She wanted to see if everyone noticed that it wasn't ripe? This reminds me of earlier in the story how the boy didn't know the difference between the two. He only knows what a persimmon is.

This reminds me a lot of a digital writing assignment I did in 11th grade. Instead of doing a traditional research paper, we did an informational "thread" on this website called Edmodo. It was reminiscent of a Twitter thread, basically. We had to make 10 different "posts" for the thread, which would be equivalent to paragraphs of a research paper.

With that being said, I really think this project I did is a great example of allowing students to be "knowledge creators"; not just because we were pretending to be "content creators" from social media. We weren't just researching information and presenting it in a unique way, we were controlling how the information was presented.

Reminds me of the difference between identity and persona. I wonder if identity can wear through to become mere persona, shallow like a D&D character?

Reminds me of the word "muddling" and one of my fav books, Muddling towards Frugality by Warren Johnson. He argues that change must not be systemic and revolutionary, i.e. quick, it must be piecemeal, experimental, and ---muddling. Maybe consider your plight from this angle?

This reminds me of the phrase there is no growth in the comfort zone. We have to learn to accept change. It is a normal part of life.

How can I better built the environment I have for my students to be more individually appropriate for them?

This reminds me why canned curriculum can be a good starting place but it may not be most appropriate for the individual child.

This reminds me of how they treat their children and how they do not desire to be parents. He has not yet settled into maturity and he does not want to take the responsibility of being a good parent.

Gall's Law

Gall's Law is a rule of thumb for systems design from Gall's book Systemantics: How Systems Really Work and How They Fail.

It reminds me of the TCP/IP versus OSI network stack wars.

This reminds me of the success criterion we use with our students. It helps students know how they will meet the object, and identifies what success 'looks like'.

This reminds me of Virginia Woolf's great essay "A Room of One's Owen"--that women need a space to call their own in order to be ourselves/to become ourselves. A room wasn't often provided like this in previous time periods.

This reminds me of what Sonny's friend said at the beginning when the narrator asked if Sonny was trying the kill himself. He said to him that Sonny wasn't trying to kill himself but he was trying to live.

I see some of the older generation saying how they feel bad for the younger people because their generation messed things up and now it's up to us to deal with the repercussions. This reminds me of that. People give us advice that they haven't or wouldn't even do themselves. It's unfair and unrealistic, and if we can't meet their expectations we end up feeling really bad about ourselves.

reminds me of her comment describing hawaiisn as not tending to riot (after queen emma lost)

As I read the articles from a couple of weeks ago, I've realized the importance of an educator being culturally aware. I think it is also to be aware of pop culture surrounding students so that you can understand the modes of communication. It reminds me of a pass lecture where Barry stated that teachers might see headphones in as rude or obnoxious. However, to the student who might live in urban city, uses the music as an outlet to study.

I see... reminds me of this: https://www.kaseyklimes.com/notes/2019/3/15/003-nobody-to-shoot

The collapse of infrastructure is very real. This reminds me of when there was rapid freezing in Texas along with other weather events and this caused mass groups of people to be without energy and heat. How can we solve this issue of dependent infrastructure with the global climate crisis? https://www.texastribune.org/2021/02/18/texas-winter-storm-power-outage-ercot/

This reminds me of Feynman's observation:"It's a brown-throated thrush, but in Germany it's called a halzenfugel, and in Chinese they call it a chung ling and even if you know all those names for it, you still know nothing about the bird."

Sometimes knowing a name stops our curiosity to push our understanding further because we cheat ourselves into thinking that we know more than the mere name. This is a fallacy.

I am not sure if I can really make this argument as it might sound a little far fetched without researching city planning, but the idea of a major road reminds me of the idea of marketing and capital gain in the way that the major roads lead straight to the town, or to the most people or material goods etc...the most profit for the town or the most traffic, and in most cases the areas with the most money.

reminds me of the examples of Irish music we talked about

This paragraph reminds me of a unit I'd learned in a history class about women in the workplace and the labor practices bestowed upon them in the 1920's. Following the First World War, when women in Canada stepped up to take the place of men away at war, they were often tethered to their workplace. From restrictive dress code to literal tethers to your desk, women have been constrained in the workplace since they entered it.

This goes to show how faulty an education system could be, either within staff or the curriculum itself. It reminds me of how students have different learning styles and simply may not understand the teachers teaching style. This halts them from performing at their best.

The self is a commodity to be optimally maintained and incessantly improved upon.

Reminds me of the ethics of Transhumanisim.

What are all these people trying to be?

Reminds me of the book How to Talk About Books You Haven't Read by Pierre Bayard. The public's interpretation of a book can be very different compared to what is actually there.

In example of a book dog eared into submission is Atlas Shrugged. When Yaron Brook goes in the Lex Friedman Podcast to talk about Atlas Shrugged he seems to be really missing the point. Sure it is nice to talk about living a principled life but there is also an attitude of the type of behavioral filth there exists in society.

It is upsetting to read how parents chose not to acknowledge their child's preference in sexuality. It reminds me of how sometimes people suggest that a child Is too young to know their sexual preference, but do not realize how the child is left unheard. I feel that if parents are more informed on the different sexualities to further hear out their children and learn how to address these situations properly.

This reminds me of the old YouTube videos I have watched where people have "came. out" as a whole event. I feel as of though we have progressed into a society where older people have became more accepting because gen-z people have been educating the conservative generation. Also the media overall, now the new generation has done a good job advocating for LGBTQ rights and overall keeping up with activism.

This reminds me that we need a process for adding an essay that is not in the HTML file for the book (an online-only essay). Maybe this is just the CMS.

I like how by stating that 'in this kind of drama' there aren't any happy endings because it reminds me about the connections that the play is making to real life. It's essentially portraying a more realistic side of humanity with a more morbid kind of justice and that not everyone gets a happy ending.

"Macheath" this name reminds me of the word cheat

This reminds me of how Romeo and Juliet both died for each other

The darkness on the edge of town reminds me specifically of how in Severance Candace finds herself becoming the NY Ghost again after the collapse. Before, when she first moved to New York, the NY Ghost was a means to explore this concept of the darkness on the edge of town, the places where people don't often go, where secrets can be stored, where society begins to lose it's grasp on humanity. This darkness spreads from the edge of New York until it envelopes the entire city, the entire country, the world. By the end of Severance Candance is still looking for a place in this darkness. ****

Ah, the precipice. Springsteen is talking about two men, who are related, standing in different places. The father is dry and neither indoors or outdoors, he bridges both realms and is neither washed and clean from the rain (baptism) or dry and full of sin. This reminds me of Melody and Big Mat in Blood on the Forge as the Big Mat stayed within the precipice between sin and goodness, and Melody embraced the rain as does the speaker in the song. Big Mat betrayed his class, but only out of his own self interest, while Melody separated himself from the class struggles at the forge and survived.**

This refrain, as well as the title of this song, reminds me of multiple works from this semester: "Life in the Iron Mills" and "Blood on the Forge". In both of these texts, our the working life is what defines the characters. They do not merely work for a living, work is in fact their lives and that means working round the clock and doing whatever it takes to keep working. Here, Springsteen highlights how even something as all consuming and crushing as factory work can become a way of life, and how that way of life becomes inseparable from people existence and experiences. Even when the whistle blows and the shift is over, that doesn't mean the working life ends, it only means the workers must go somewhere for the night, taking all the pain and toil that they carry, and get ready to return tomorrow.

this reminds me of the scene in one of the dagoberto gilb stories when the protagonist is waiting outside the library and flirts with the idea of accepting having nowhere to live. While this Springsteen line is alluding to holding something in and Gilb's is about holding onto something, the tension is the same. they both depict a constant strain. they both romanticize a release.

Networking Annotation #4: This quote just reminds me of working in general. We work and we work and everyday we would wish it would end, but in the end we still work. It made me think of this quote from Severance where Candance went "“I was like everyone else. We all hoped the storm would knock things over, fuck things up enough but not too much. We hoped the damage was bad enough to cancel work the next morning but not so bad that we couldn’t go to brunch instead." I found it had the same tension and desire to run, but in the end many don't do that and just work. It really tell a lot about labor. We keep quiet exploding on the inside, but never on the outside.

This reminds a lot of Ruth and Martin Eden and how Ruth was born into "a good life" and Martin "[got] it anyway anyhow". It also reminds me of the final moments in Martin Eden specifically how the line "them things don't seem to matter much to me now" can be related to Martin losing his will for life and ultimately taking his own life. it really gives you perspective on work and how pursuing work and be very draining to the point of death. Losing a job can make one feel that they have lost everything but what's reinforced throughout the novels that we have read is the fact that work is necessary whether it be blue-collar or white-collar work .

That sense of having the hunger to work to achieve those dreams, and imagining what it might be like to achieve those dreams. the line "you want it, you take it, you pay the price", reminds me of Martin Eden and his willingness to take what he could and do what he needed to do to become a successful writer, paying the price. This is also somewhat reminds me of Gilb and how his characters are very work-centric in the sense that they have to work to make a living, and although they don't pay a drastic price like Martin Eden does, they still have to pay the price of doing the labor of Blue-Collar work.

This last stanza reminds me a lot of Blood on the forge in the sense that the brothers loved each other but each one was essentially crushed in the story. Melody couldn't play the guitar anymore, Chinatown lost his vision, and Big Matt essentially lost a mental battle that eventually led to his death. They all tried to "pick up the pieces" but ultimately failed in one way or another. Overall they were chasing "something in the night", they leave at night via this train in search of better pay in essence chasing that working life up north.

This reminds me of the fear that Martin Eden had for his future when he was averting the women of his "caste." he feared his own future if he continued to be a laborer and didn't get any success as a writer and the he judged the women in his community as an avenue for that fear. Springsteen is achieving something similar, the "girl" is withering at the consequences of the speakers lifestyle and the speakers actions. shes with someone who's sense of fulfillment comes through escaping their reality.

Networking Annotation #5: A consistency to a patterned life is what producing in a job or workforce means. Springsteen, seemingly describing what looks to be a cycle of the same life in the lyrics "The working, the working, just the working life" is like a repetitive series of events that you relive each day to enjoy the little free time outside of working. This case of repetition and cycling reminds me of the novel "Severance" by Ling Ma, where the main character "Cadence" is working to keep her mind off of the life that is crumbling around her. Often times, when people are sad or life is getting troublesome, there will be these habitual formalities that are created due to stress and depression that lead people creating cycled habits like getting lost in their work. Keeping a steady and healthy workload is important but it is also more important to enjoy and recognize the life around you as well. This is what Springsteen is trying to teach when he talks about his father essentially working his life away.

Annotation 3: For the woman to be struggling and feeling that she can’t make her dreams come true reminds me of Candace's old job when she used to work in a bible corporation. In Severance, Candace had moments where she dealt with bad working conditions which made her question if she could get herself out of the situation and pursue her dreams. Candace realized how capitalism in the west oppressed factory workers more than in the east. For instance, Candace recalls telling a client that making the gems for the bible can end up hurting the workers due to the gritty air. In other words, the working conditions causes Candace to relive those moments and make her question whether or not the job is worth it. The woman sitting on the porch represents Candace reflecting on her life. Springsteen, in this particular line makes it seems the woman is waiting for her dreams to come true while she thinks about her life.

Reminds me of Martin going back into town after working at the laundry springs. Working himself to exhaustion only to further exhaust himself with drink. The only way to relax, but it comes at a cost literally and physically.

I agree with Bunny and how we get the depiction of routine with the repetition of the "working life". However, these lines also remind me of Blood on the Forge, specifically the line "And you just better believe, boy, somebody's gonna get hurt tonight". It reminds me of the Mills in Blood on the Forge and how if the workers weren't careful they could end up hurt or dead. the "death in their eyes" could also be representative of work day and night without getting proper rest.

This line reminds me of Martin Eden and Ruth. Martin was born with nothing and when he tried to become a writer the woman he loved told him he wouldn’t succeed as one. The verse: “someone to try and take it away” really focuses on the idea of people’s dreams being crushed by someone else.

This reminds me of elementary school when the teachers would divide us to play girls against the boys and there was an immediate sense of tension and competition to see which gender was better. I remember even now I feel like these experiences have shaped me into becoming a more competitive women and supporter for girls supporting girls. I feel as of though because I also grew uo with females around me, I am a big advocate for feminism.

Reminds me a gain of Roam.

What if humans spoke in compilable code? What if we thought in that? What if we do?

Reminds me of the Kalunga line which is often associated with bodies of water, with the Atlantic Ocean being prominent. They believed the soul after death traveled the path of the sun as it set in the west. The enslaved believed they were being taken to the land of the dead, never to return.

It's upsetting to see how common it is in schools for teachers to punish women students for being less disciplined, where it is deemed normal for male students to be less disciplined. This reminds me of my own middle school experience as I was more likely to get criticized for my opinions rather than my male peers' opinion.

It upsets me reading these high school experiences as it reminds me of my time in high school. It is insane how quick everyone is to shame students for anything. My high school administrations was quick to give detention or penalize students of color. When they would see a group of latinos gathering they would walk up to them and question them before passing.

Reminds me of more contemporary commentary to “shut up and play” or “shut up and dribble”, etc

so performative and reminds me of a lot of the "activism" that is common on social media today

reminds me of the ways we in the US sort of just mash up random "ethnic" things that aren't even that related to each other

This reminds me of my own high school experience. I was taking honors and AP classes which meant my classes consisted of higher achieving students. I found myself often struggling to ask for help as my peers did not like to help one another. This could have possibly been because they saw everyone as competition.

Awesome!

Reminds me of the [[hutterites]] which I learnt of only recently. And of course the [[kibbutz]]?

This is so crazy to me of how men blamed women for “distracting them” while it was their problem for not how to respect a woman. This topic reminds me of today and how we are still fighting for men to stop looking at women just as sex figures and blaming us for their actions and lack of control. Still till this day men/women criticize women on how they dress/ present themselves and as well as create such a hostile environment through actions such as “cat calling”.

This speech reminds me of a current social issues surrounding Black Lives Matter. During the protests of 2020, there was a huge movement supporting specifically black women and women of color. Studies were showing that women of color were experiencing more discrimination throughout their lives compared to men of color and were more heavily oppressed. This oppression stems from the systematic racism that our history has allowed including this lack of inclusion of women of color in the women's rights movement from the very beginning of the movement.

This reminds me of the Patriot Act, signed into law by George W. Bush. Essentially, the Patriot Act called for the allowance of surveillance of people's private calls, emails, and internet usage for the purpose of stopping terrorist attacks before they are ever able to begin. Looking back, this invasion of privacy was very close to infringing on people's First Amendment rights. Attached is a video for a more concise definition and why it was so controversial.

This line reminds me of Fitzgerald's "Late Nights Online" article that we covered in class. Anyone on the internet can act like someone they are not. It is very difficult, if not impossible, to tell who someone online really is. In Fitzgerald's work, she talks about catfishing someone online. This is a part of the concern in the line that I am annotating currently.

reminds me of Charles Manson's polyamorous relationships with his "Manson Girls" and their use of sexuality for manipulation and resources

This moment reminds me of Markman Ellis’s argument

These two are inherently tied. The slave population as like the sugar cane: different varieties, prone to pests, requiring specific "care," etc. The slaves and the commodity produced by their labor become one. (Reminds me of how the Chinese workers on the transcontinental railroad were equated to the train itself to deny them housing and sustenance. As the laborer is alienated from both their labor and their humanity, they themselves become the commodity produced.)

Taps into the pastoral tradition of romanticing rural labor. Also recontextualizes much of the other passages on the beauty of the "island paradise"--the mere presence of rural beauty and proximity to nature is seen as ameliorating the inhumane conditions. It reminds me of how the Japanese American Incarceration in WW2 was so thoroughly associated with the grand vistas of the Rockies (e.g., in Ansel Adams' camp photography)--with natural beauty utilized to obscure dehumanization or to even claim the forced relocation was a gift/improvement.

Reminds me of the sublime and manifest destiny, as well as the frontier myth.

reminds me of the thing about the cows in relation to King Phillips War (as in the different ways an ecological colonization can occur both intentionally and accidentally)

Reminds me of Milton

"Vibrates" really struck me because I normally encounter that word in science textbooks and occult texts, specifically the Kybalion. But Clark's line reminds me most of Ashon Crawley's work in black feminist studies and his assertion that "Because everything vibrates, nothing escapes participating in choreographic encounters with the rest of the living world." This resonates strongly with Clark's assertion, "sometimes I swear it vibrates." Her skin holds "so many black souls," which are not alive but they still vibrate through her skin. This vibration refuses her husband's white mother's insistence that the land could be redeemed, as these "black souls" still have an effect on the world and are received and held by others.

curate reminds me of museums and the very explicit ways that white western museums of empire (british museum, met, etc) steal and pillage art and artifacts from colonized peoples and "curate" them into exhibits as a show of colonial dominance, but that these processes of extraction extends beyond museums and into the day to day workings of cities and food, etc.

I like how the epigraph frames the content of the poem so well, showing that this is not a one-person problem but an issue that whole communities experience. The mention of history also reminds me of the "historical self," sort of alluding to the fact that history inherently haunts a person like a "ghost."

This reminds me a lot of borders and border conflicts. in some writings rivers and such indicated stoping points for Englishmen who couldn't cross the river to pursue the Indigenous people. Here we see a similar situation occurring with the highway in which the imagery "tourniquet of concrete" invokes a similar violence and containment of people of color's bodies and territory.

Something about the name Connected Papers reminds me of the same sort of linking name that Manfred Kuehn gave to his note taking software ConnectedText.

I believe it is important in this research study to provide literacy access to the children. This reminds me of when my dad migrated to the states and would read new articles in English to help with his language barriers. Exposure to these resources impact children as they would have no knowledge to to seek it for themselves otherwise.

If Candy is a prostitute, then is the narrator deluding himself into believing the relationship is significant and meaningful when it is actually transactional? Reminds me of Big Mat's search for reaffirmed masculinity in Blood on the Forge...

This reminds me of my dad's experience moving to the states in high school. He faced a severe culture shock as he was bullied for his lack of proper speech. It made me appreciate his sacrifice for leaving his home country to better his and our future.

this reminds me a lot of Zola's focus on smells in his Les Rougon-Macquart series, which equates odor with degeneration and generally low-class behavior

reminds me of our discussion of Irish trad music amongst Irish Americans

I like this quote, it is really humanizing. No person has all of the experiences of the world or of both sides of a struggle that would allow them to act perfectly just or strategically. The comparison of people to players in the extended metaphor of chess reminds me of the segment of the French Dispatch we watched in class.

reminds me of how things are always dying

particularly:

but rather the game in and of itself, the constant shifting around of pawns, the circulation of cards, everything that contributes to the fact that the game--as opposed to a work of art--never stands still.

This reminds me of some of the mnemonic devices (cowrie shells) that Lynne Kelly describes in combinatorial mnemonic practice. These are like games or stories that change through time. And these are fairly similar to the statistical thermodynamics of life and our multitude of paths through it. Or stories which change over time.

Is life just a game?

there's a kernel of something interesting here, we'll just need to tie it all together.

Think also of combining various notes together in a zettelkasten.

Were these indigenous tribes doing combinatorial work in a more rigorous mathematical fashion?

I feel as though that statement of "anyone can succeed in the U.S." is oftentimes now used as a way to put people down. It reminds me of the model myth minority in many ways as it utilizes miraculous stories of people overcoming their poverty/ hardships against all odds, without considering individual situations. Statements such as these seem to blame victims for their situations and I have firsthand witnessed the privileged use statements such as these to argue that poor people are choosing to stay poor.

this really reminds me of the discourse today about whether video games encourage young boys to be violent

reminds me of the moral panic of the French second empire (Zola) but hit Germany much later

reminds me of the fears of degeneration and a loss of masculinity preceding the franco-prussian war during the second empire

Don't know if anyone else knows this reference but this really reminds me of Lorde shushing the audience when she was singing Writer in the Dark

This reminds me of a question I had asked regarding the egotistical and selfishly youthful desire to incite revolution. The drama, the need to say "me, me, me!" and the want to be a hero may be what drives movements forward. Whether or not they succeed is a totally separate issue.

Being brought up with a family of eight, hand me downs were very common. It was a norm to recycle clothes in my area but in cases of upper class schools I can see how a student could feel alienated not receiving the latest clothes or shoes. This also reminds me of nowadays how children are brought up on material items such as the latest sneakers so I can see how alienation could be more common.

This reminds me of how older people claim our generation is more sensitive than the past generations. However, they failed to realize the exclusion caused by the past generations ideals. For example, when celebrating Mother's Day we know acknowledge those without mothers. I think it is best to rather than empathize with those who do not have parents but to eliminate the standardize norm of an American family. This help those who feel alienated to realize that all family comes in different standards.

It's unfortunate how common it is in hispanic households for a child's mental illness to go undiagnosed because of how limited the parents are to resources for adequate medical care. This reminds me of my sister who is current diagnosed with ADD. My family was reluctant in seeking help for my sister, it wasn't until college she actively sought help for a diagnosis.

Would LA be considered at urban poverty? This reminds me of my friend who lives in Arizona and was so accustomed to the non crowded areas that when he came down to visit it became a culture shock. He was not used to the crowded spaces and loud noise that at times he felt overstimulated with the city itself.

This reminds me of the old the old Willow brook facility, where they conducted similar or the same techniques to intellectually disabled patients.

again this reminds me of James Baldwin's interview where he says: "they always told me change takes time. . .its taken my fathers time. .my mothers. . ."

Reminds me of W.E.B DuBois' concept of the two-selves of an African American, and the right both selves have to their identity and ability to live freely.
