Iphigenia in Tauris (German: Iphigenie auf Tauris) is a reworking by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe of the ancient Greek tragedy Ἰφιγένεια ἐν Ταύροις (Iphigeneia en Taurois) by Euripides.
In Greek mythology, Iphigenia (/ɪfɪdʒɪˈnaɪ.ə/; Ancient Greek: Ἰφιγένεια, Iphigéneia, [iːpʰiɡéneː.a]) was a daughter of King Agamemnon and Queen Clytemnestra, and thus a princess of Mycenae.
Sturm und Drang (/ˌʃtʊərm ʊnt ˈdræŋ, - ˈdrɑːŋ/,[1] .mw-parser-output .IPA-label-small{font-size:85%}.mw-parser-output .references .IPA-label-small,.mw-parser-output .infobox .IPA-label-small,.mw-parser-output .navbox .IPA-label-small{font-size:100%}German: [ˈʃtʊʁm ʔʊnt ˈdʁaŋ]; usually translated as "storm and stress"[2]) was a proto-Romantic movement in German literature and music that occurred between the late 1760s and early 1780s. Within the movement, individual subjectivity and, in particular, extremes of emotion were given free expression in reaction to the perceived constraints of rationalism imposed by the Enlightenment and associated aesthetic movements.
Sturm und Drang is an art movement that formed as a result of marching rationalism (see Enlightenment) and valued subjectivity and emotions.
Prometheus is the creative and rebellious spirit which, rejected by God, angrily defies him and asserts itself; Ganymede is the boyish self which is adored and seduced by God. One is the lone defiant, the other the yielding acolyte. As the humanist poet, Goethe presents both identities as aspects or forms of the human condition.
Prometheus as representing mythos (creativity and rebellion) whereas Zeus represents logos.
Both belong to the period 1770–1775. Prometheus (1774)
Is Prometheus (Goethe) published in 1773 or 1774? (Sebastiaan van Bommel making a mistake?)
"Prometheus" is a poem by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, in which the character of the mythic Prometheus addresses God (as Zeus) in misotheist accusation and defiance. The poem was written between 1772 and 1774 and first published in 1789 after an anonymous and unauthorised publication in 1785 by Friedrich Heinrich Jacobi. It is an important work of the Sturm und Drang movement.

Dynastic cycle (traditional Chinese: 朝代循環; simplified Chinese: 朝代循环; pinyin: Cháodài Xúnhuán) is an important political theory in Chinese history. According to this theory, each dynasty of China rises to a political, cultural, and economic peak and then, because of moral corruption, declines, loses the Mandate of Heaven, and falls, only to be replaced by a new dynasty. The cycle then repeats under a surface pattern of repetitive motifs.[1]
Dynasties rising to a peak, then, corrupting, losing Mandate of Heaven, which another dynasty gains.

It was about 1947 that a few members of the Ramsey Church of Christ, a few miles north of De Leon, Texas, differed from their brethren on a point of doctrine concerning the millennium.
Unable to find a congregation that matched their convictions, he, Myrtle and their five children continued to meet at home with Charlie’s widow, Annie. For the next decade they met largely alone, joined intermittently by neighbors and friends. Their motivation was simple: to obey THE Heavenly Father. As their understanding of the new and old scriptures changed, they modified their lives and worship accordingly.
In 1947, Voy and Myrtle Wilks along with Myrtle's father Charlie Cullen Fenter Fenter were disfellowshipped from the Churches of Christ and founded a church which was at first called simply “A Church of Christ.”
Churches of Christ is already pretty weird before you get into the Wilks Chinese Communist Party oil baron funded spinoff (Assembly of Yahweh - 7th day).
According to that Wikipedia page "[the] Churches of Christ arose in the United States from the Restoration Movement of 19th-century"
In few words, they reject Christianity as understood by most people. The conventional definition of our faith appears to exclude non-trinitarian non-incarnational anti-nicene groups like the more famous restorationist groups: Mormons and Jehova's Witnesses.
It teaches that "the true religion is Jewish (not a Gentile religion)" and its members celebrate the Old Testament holidays rather than those related to the New Testament.
I'm not a strict believer in supercessionism whereby all self-identified Jews = bad and gentiles are always good. However, the full-on denial of a new covenant is consistent with the Mormon, JW, gnostic, freemason anti-Paul stance.
It also seems to say Judas was good because the mistrial and murder of Jesus was preordained by God anyway...so Jesus was guilty of blasphemy and the senhedrin was (and is) a legitimate legal body.
A 2021 study by Brown University estimated that 30,177 veterans of post-9/11 conflicts had died by suicide. When compared to the 7,057 personnel killed in the conflicts, at least four times as many veterans died by suicide than personnel were killed during the post-9/11 conflicts.[10]

Moreover, the ordering is effectively determined by the effects of the operations when they are generated
I don't see how that makes ops "admissible". Simply by reordering we won't get preservation of intent.
E.g.,
"abbcd"
peer1 and peer2 in parallel delete the second duplicate b.
No matter how we order them, we have:
[delete(3), delete(3)]
Intent of peers: "abcd"
Playback of log: 1. "abcd" 2. "abd"
Doesn't look like we preserved the intent - delete(position) is not admissible, in general case. It's context-dependent. No matter the order.
Consequently, the total order becomes application specific
Well, it's not 'total order' anymore then, is it?
More like a subjective operations log. See Chronofold.
The invocation of every operation is admissible in its execution state
Then we can't have delete(position) operation. As it context-dependent.
I.e., ops need to be self-contained. delete(position) becomes delete(char-id) - whoa, now we have CRDTs.
The above CSM model requires that a total order of all objects in the system be specified
I don't see that.
What CSM does, as it seems to me, is to specify/extend the "Intention preservation" of CCI.
Moreover, total order has nothing to do with "intention preservation". Ops that been issued in parallel can be put in total order - yet it does not give convergence of intent.
E.g.,
"abbcd"
And peer1 wants to change c to C.
Whereas peer2 wants to remove the second b.
[delete(3), delete(4), add(4, char: "a")]
Playing the ops: 1. "abcd" 2. "abc" 3. "abcC"
Intention of c -> C is not preserve, despite having total order.
Second, it was defined as operation context-based pre- and post- transformation conditions for generic OT functions
This solution seems to aim to preserve intention (same result of an op in a different context) as trying to capture some host context and try to adopt op+some_context to the target context.
Which seems rather unnecessary if you would transfer op+host_context as is, the receiving party will be able to adopt it.

Chernoff faces, invented by applied mathematician, statistician and physicist Herman Chernoff in 1973, display multivariate data in the shape of a human face. The individual parts, such as eyes, ears, mouth and nose represent values of the variables by their shape, size, placement and orientation. The idea behind using faces is that humans easily recognize faces and notice small changes without difficulty. Chernoff faces handle each variable differently.

The name Marathon comes from the legend of Pheidippides, the Greek messenger. The legend states that, while he was taking part in the Battle of Marathon, which took place in August or September 490 BC,[3] he witnessed a Persian vessel changing its course towards Athens as the battle was near a victorious end for the Greek army. He interpreted this as an attempt by the defeated Persians to rush into the city to claim a false victory or simply raid,[4] hence claiming their authority over Greek land. It was said that he ran the entire distance to Athens without stopping, discarding his weapons and even clothes to lose as much weight as possible, and burst

The term 'knowledge work' appeared in The Landmarks of Tomorrow (1959) by Peter Drucker.[12] Drucker later coined the term 'knowledge worker' in The Effective Executive[13] in 1966. Later, in 1999, he suggested that "the most valuable asset of a 21st-century institution, whether business or non-business, will be its knowledge workers and their productivity."
Edward Teach (alternatively spelled Edward Thatch, c. 1680 – 22 November 1718), better known as Blackbeard, was an English pirate who operated around the West Indies and the eastern coast of Britain's North American colonies.
Blackbeard (Edward Teach) is a real person? See One Piece character and parallels.
The teaching consisted mainly of instruction in Christian doctrine. Some also taught reading, writing, and math.
Christian doctrine could possibly include restatement (i.e. "when linguistic...shifts over time hinder intelligibility or change the terms of reference [within text]" as quoted from Britannica) and ethics (i.e. understanding how teachings and understood practice in text could be applied to daily life).

For example, a player entity could have a bullet component added to it, and then it would meet the requirements to be manipulated by some bulletHandler system, which could result in that player doing damage to things by running into them.
When this is properly partitioned and named it is just a set of rules and properties that compose to express complex behaviors.
Just like physics in real life.
The normal way to transmit data between systems is to store the data in components, and then have each system access the component sequentially.
If the systems communicate sequencially using data changes to components of entities (state) it seems like order is of concern. This sounds like manual state propagation, can automatic propagation (reactive, propagator) solve ordering and improve efficiency?
FLECS
https://www.flecs.dev/flecs/index.html
One of those features is the support of the type hierarchy for the components. Each component can have a base component type (or a base class) much like in OOP. A system can then query with the base class and get all of its descendants matched in the resulting entities selection.
Semantic type system can be extremely powerful declarative tool
An entity only consists of an ID for accessing components.
Don't we also need some kind of associative store that associates entities ids to components?
This eliminates the ambiguity problems of deep and wide inheritance hierarchies often found in Object Oriented Programming techniques that are difficult to understand, maintain, and extend.
How?
Systems act globally over all entities which have the required components
This approach is especially suited game engines which operate of a single attribute of all the entities (i.e the position of all entities, shadow of all entities, etc..) and not the overall attributes of a single entity.
Multiple low data rate signals are multiplexed over a single high-data-rate link, then demultiplexed at the other end.

"its structure is somewhat superior to…those that have come after, fundamentally flawed as they are by their inclusive and hierarchical taxonomy, which each time immediately brings the whole game to a standstill and produces an impasse"
Taxonomy allows for a structured classification system of genre, as opposed to a more contemporary rhetorical model of genre.
Meaning...? Genre isn't a taxonomy because taxonomy requires more structured classification?
However, more ambitious efforts to expand the tripartite system resulted in new taxonomic systems of increasing scope and complexity.
This taxonomy implies a concept of containment or that an idea will be stable forever.
What do you mean? This taxonomy? which? Does this contradict that it's an intangible taxonomy?
In literature, genre has been known as an intangible taxonomy.
During his stay in Constantinople, Busbecq wrote his best known work, the Turkish Letters, a compendium of personal correspondence to his friend, and fellow Hungarian diplomat, Nicholas Michault, in Flanders and some of the world's first travel literature. These letters, together with Melchior Lorck's woodprints describe his adventures in Ottoman politics and remain one of the principal primary sources for students of the 16th-century Ottoman court
Ogier wrote on his stay describing Ottoman (court) culture
In 1554 and again in 1556,[1] Ferdinand named Busbecq ambassador to the Ottoman Empire under the rule of Suleiman the Magnificent. His task for much of the time he was in Constantinople was the negotiation of a border treaty between his employer (the future Holy Roman Emperor) and the Sultan over the disputed territory of Transylvania. He had no success in this mission while Rüstem Pasha was the Sultan's vizier, but ultimately reached an accord with his successor Semiz Ali Pasha.
Ogier was an ambassador mediating between Ferdinand and Suleyman.

The Kharijites,[a] also called al-Shurat,[b] were an Islamic sect which emerged during the First Fitna (656–661).
After Muhammad's death, this institution was adapted by the Umayyad dynasty to incorporate new converts to Islam into Arab-Muslim society and the word mawali gained currency as an appellation for converted non-Arab Muslims in the early Islamic caliphates.
Non-Arabs integration into Arab Muslim society
In the Quran and hadiths it is used in a number of senses, including 'Lord', 'guardian', and 'trustee'.[1]
Before the Islamic prophet Muhammad, the term originally applied to any form of tribal association.[2]
Mawlā (Arabic: مَوْلَى, plural mawālī مَوَالِي), is a polysemous Arabic word, whose meaning varied in different periods and contexts.[1]

The Umayyad dynasty (Arabic: بَنُو أُمَيَّةَ, romanized: Banū Umayya, lit. 'Sons of Umayya') or Umayyads (Arabic: الأمويون, romanized: al-Umawiyyūn) was an Arab clan within the Quraysh tribe who were the ruling family of the Caliphate between 661 and 750 and later of al-Andalus between 756 and 1031.
Monsters and villains depicted in many horror films have often had physical or mental disabilities. These evolved from being sympathetic depictions of disabled characters in early monster films such as Frankenstein, to presentations of disabled people as "bloodthirsty and terrifying" in slasher films of the 1970s and 1980s.[3] Horror films have sometimes attracted criticism for their depictions of disability[3][4][5] or have been described as ableist.[6] Some films have been accused of reflecting eugenicist views held by the society of their time.[7][1] Tropes of characters "overcoming" disability, or of disability granting special powers, have been described as harmful.[8]
Phantom of the Opera is another example of this.
Various modern figures such as the chair of the Federal Reserve in the United States, the prime minister in parliamentary systems, the president of the Swiss Confederation, the chief justice of the United States, the chief justice of the Philippines, the archbishop of Canterbury of the Anglican Communion and the ecumenical patriarch of Constantinople of the Eastern Orthodox Church fall under both senses: bearing higher status and various additional powers while remaining still merely equal to their peers in important senses.
This is still relevant today as the political form of Republicanism is still present nowadays.
Primus inter pares is a Latin phrase meaning first among equals.[a]
After the fall of the Republic, Roman emperors initially referred to themselves only as princeps despite having enormous power.
Even emperors continued referring themselves as such

Getae were a Thracian tribe
If this is true it refers not to its capture in the Second Punic War (211 BC), but to its submission to Rome in 338 BC. This places the date of foundation at about 600 BC, while Etruscan power was at its highest.[3]
Etruscans submitted in 338 BC and were completely taken over in 211 (Second Punic wars)
The name of Capua comes from the Etruscan Capeva.[2] The meaning is 'City of Marshes'. Its foundation is attributed by Cato the Elder to the Etruscans, and the date given as about 260 years before it was "taken" by Rome

According to a 17th century account, the Andalusian inventor Abbas ibn Firnas makes a tower jump in Córdoba. He wraps himself with vulture feathers and attaches two wings to his arms. The alleged attempt to fly is not recorded in earlier sources and is ultimately unsuccessful, but the garment slows his fall enough that he only sustains minor injuries.
Sounds pretty successful to me!

person with delusional disorder may be high functioning in daily life
Apart from their delusion or delusions, people with delusional disorder may continue to socialize and function in a normal manner and their behavior does not necessarily generally seem odd.[
Delusional disorder, traditionally synonymous with paranoia, is a mental illness in which a person has delusions, but with no accompanying prominent hallucinations, thought disorder, mood disorder, or significant flattening of affect.[7][8] Delusions are a specific symptom of psychosis. Delusions can be bizarre or non-bizarre in content;[8] non-bizarre delusions are fixed false beliefs that involve situations that could occur in real life, such as being harmed

History[edit] Glenford J. Myers initially introduced the separation of debugging from testing in 1979.[14] Although his attention was on breakage testing ("A successful test case is one that detects an as-yet undiscovered error."[14]: 16 ), it illustrated the desire of the software engineering community to separate fundamental development activities, such as debugging, from that of verification.

Software faults occur through the following process: A programmer makes an error (mistake), which results in a fault (defect, bug) in the software source code. If this fault is executed, in certain situations the system will produce wrong results, causing a failure.

To what extent in this process is the client reconfiguring and refocusing on their relationship with those around them? Does the past have absolute process (in the Zulu incarnation)? It obviously may not in the Western practice, but perhaps the client may more easily come to terms with those around them as a result, and this is more beneficial than a "truer" outcome?
A healing resolution for the issue generally is supposedly achieved after repositioning the representatives and adding key members of the system who have been forgotten or written out of the family history. When every representative feels right in his or her place and the other representatives agree, the facilitator may suggest one or two sentences to be spoken aloud. If the representatives do not feel at peace with their new position or sentences, they can move again or try a different sentence. This is claimed, in an abstract way, to represent a possible resolution of the issues faced by the seeker. Sometimes the process concludes without a full resolution being achieved.
