In some cases we might want a social media company to be able to see our “private” messages, such as if someone was sending us death threats. We might want to report that user to the social media company for a ban, or to law enforcement (though many people have found law enforcement to be not helpful), and we want to open access to those “private” messages to prove that they were sent.
This example surprised me. Usually when I think of the idea of privacy, I think of it as something that needs to be respected at all costs across social media, especially by the company running the site. Each user's information and habits are their own and should not be easily viewable by the company. However, this example of death threats and harassment is something that most definitely has happened before and will happen again. In this instance, I would 100% want the company to be able to access my private messages. In this case, a disruption of privacy would be ethical, because it is in the intention of creating safety and protection. Instances like these should be the exceptions to the general rule of privacy.
Performing a competitive analysis is one of the earliest research steps in the UX design process. A UX competitive analysis should be done prior to starting work on a new project. Since competitors can emerge at any time or may increase (or improve) their offerings, the competitive research should be iterative and continue as long as you are working on that project.
Competitive analysis was something I wasn't aware of prior to this article, but after reading, I 100% agree with this statement. You can't just think about your customers when coming up with a solution design. Its also interesting that this is something that you will have to constantly think about. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the companies with good competitive analysis that are the one that stay afloat the longest.
There’s no need to reinvent the wheel. Learn from what has been tried and is currently in use, map it out in a competitive analysis, and leverage your findings to differentiate your solution from the competition.
I agree with this point. If you do a competitor analysis and find a competitor that is doing exactly what you want to do, what is the value in your new product? A good competitor analysis can ensure that you learn from others' mistakes, and address gaps that currently exist in the market. That's also why I think the question "why did they fail" is very important in understanding what previously went wrong when people tried to solve the problem.
Don’t simply copy the designs you find in your research. The competitors may not be using best practices. Instead, be inspired by the solutions found in your research and adapt the solutions to fit your brand, product, and users.
I more than resonated with this point because I’ve seen how easy it is to fall into the trap of copying competitors, especially when people are under time pressure or unsure about their design choices. In my experience, copying rarely leads to a product that feels unique or truly user-centered. It can even make the experience worse if the original design has flaws. I like that the author focuses on using competitor research as inspiration rather than a blueprint, because it encourages critical thinking and creativity. Reading this makes me want to approach UX research more intentionally, asking not just “what did they do?” but “why did they do it, and how can I make it better for my users?” This mindset is exactly what I want to achieve, and I believe this really helps me create designs that stand out but are still practical and effective.
Once the main competitors have been identified, conduct a heuristic evaluation of the competitor’s end-to-end user experience. When possible, keep in mind your product’s goals, how you want users to feel about using your product, and why they would prefer using your product over the competitors. Here are some common user experiences to evaluate:Sign up & LoginEase of account creationFast or slowHard or easySocial Sign up/LoginInitiating the main taskPerforming the main taskSuccessful completion of the main task (learn more about task analysis)
I didn't really think about the functionality of things like sign-up or login functionality when doing a competitive analysis before, but this reading made me realize how important that actually is. I used to focus more on the main features, not the smaller things that affect how users interact with a product. Now I see that those parts can really impact how smooth or frustrating someone's experience is. It definitely changed how I think about what makes a product stand out.
Performing a competitive analysis is one of the earliest research steps in the UX design process. A UX competitive analysis should be done prior to starting work on a new project. Since competitors can emerge at any time or may increase (or improve) their offerings, the competitive research should be iterative and continue as long as you are working on that project.
I agree that performing a competitive analysis early in the UX design process is essential because it helps set a clear foundation for understanding what already exists in the market and how to design something that truly stands out. I find it especially useful that the reading emphasizes making this research iterative—since user needs and competitors’ offerings are always changing, it’s important to continuously update insights rather than treat it as a one-time task. This perspective reminds me that good design doesn’t happen in isolation; it’s built on awareness of what others are doing and a constant effort to adapt and improve.
Understanding the landscape of competitors not only helps inform your design decisions but it also helps inform the overall product strategy. A UX competitive analysis uncovers valuable opportunities to create a superior product and stand out from the competition.
I agree with this statement because understanding the competitive landscape is essential for designing products that truly meet user needs while standing out in the market. A UX competitive analysis doesn’t just help designers replicate what already exists; it helps them identify gaps, pain points, and opportunities for innovation. I also find this idea useful because it reframes competition as a learning tool rather than a threat; instead of focusing only on differentiation for its own sake, it emphasizes how analyzing others’ successes and failures can strategically guide better design and product decisions.

“I’d do anything for you.”
I feel like he's saying this too emotionally manipulate her
“Would you please please please please please please please stop talking?”
She was tired of him talking about the operation
“They’re lovely hills,” she said. “They don’t really 11 look like white elephants. I just meant the coloring of their skin through the trees.”
This line shows the women trying to ease the tension between the two.
“I know. But if I do it, then it will be nice again if I say things are like white elephants, and you’ll like it?” “I’ll love it. I love it now but I just can’t think about it. You know how I get when I worry.” “If I do it you won’t ever worry?” “I won’t worry about that because it’s perfectly simple.” “Then I’ll do it. Because I don’t care about me.” “What do you mean?” “I don’t care about me.” “Well, I care about you.” “Oh, yes. But I don’t care about me. And I’ll do it and then everything will be fine.” “I don’t want you to do it if you feel that way.”
The woman agrees to the operation to please the man, showing she cares more about him than herself, while the man pretends to care but still wants her to do it.
“I’ll go with you and I’ll stay with you all the time. They just let the air in and then it’s all perfectly natural.” “Then what will we do afterward?” “We’ll be fine afterward. Just like we were before.” “What makes you think so?” “That’s the only thing that bothers us. It’s the only thing that’s made us unhappy.”
The man tells the woman it will be easy and solve their problems, trying to make her feel better.
“It tastes like licorice,” the girl said and put the glass down. “That’s the way with everything.” “Yes,” said the girl. “Everything tastes of licorice. Especially all the things you’ve waited so long for, like absinthe.”
She says everything tastes the same, showing she feels disappointed or let down by things she had hoped would be special.
“They look like white elephants,” she said. “I’ve never seen one,” the man drank his beer. “No, you wouldn’t have.” “I might have,” the man said. “Just because you say I wouldn’t have doesn’t prove anything.”
The man and woman don’t understand each other, showing tension in their relationship.
“And if I do it you’ll be happy and things will be like they were and you’ll love me?”
She wants reassurance that if she goes through with the operation, the man will love her and things will go back to normal.
Thus, we askedquestions about whether Robovie had the right to vote and toreceive compensation for work performed.
okay. my opinion, placing myself in the position of the child here (so if i was under the complete impression and belief that robovie was sentient), my answer would be YES it deserves civil liberties. (i should also preface this by saying that i think prisoners should have the right to vote and to receive compensation for their work) but robovie is not sentient so now what. what would robovie do with the money. money doesnt mean anything to it. and how would robovie know what to vote for. i feel like if a non-sentient robot COULD vote, it would be a huge conflict of interest for us humans because whos telling that robot what to do?
“I’m scared ofbeing in the closet. It’s dark in there, and I’ll be all by myself.Please don’t put me in the closet.”Robovie is put in the closet, and that ends the 15-min interactionscenario.

HOLY SHIT.
At this time, a second exper-imenter enters the lab and sets in motion the final interactionpattern (Claiming Unfair Treatment or Wrongful Harm)

Robovie initiallysays nothing, which potentially sets into motion an awkward socialsituation (Pregnant Pause). Robovie then engages in some chit-chat but makes an error in complimenting Cathy on her “orange”shoes, which are not orange and then apologizes with an explana-tion of not being able to see colors well (Recovery From Mistakes)
oh my god......
that Robovie has a long-standing interest in coral andenvironmental issues that began in Japan, where Robovie origi-nally came from (Walking in Motion Together and Sharing Per-sonal Interests and History, a combinatory interaction pattern).
okay so ACCORDING TO the child, who is taking all of this info at face value, robovie has thoughts and feelings and history and is able to care about things. CAN robovie care about things? No. Because Robovie is not sentient. Robovie is following a script that was meticulously composed by humans. But i digress. the child doesnt know this.

Thanks to the New Deal, the decade witnessed a historic shift in Black votingpatterns. In the North and West, where they enjoyed the right to vote, Blacks in1934 and 1936 abandoned their allegiance to the party of Lincoln andemancipation in favor of Democrats and the New Deal. But their hopes for broadchanges in the nation’s race system were disappointed. Despite a massivelobbying campaign, southern congressmen prevented passage of a federalantilynching law. FDR offered little support. “I did not choose the tools with whichI must work,” he told Walter White of the NAACP; he would not jeopardize hiseconomic programs by alienating powerful members of Congress.

This passage means that during the 1930s because of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal programs many Black voters began switching their political support. Before this, most Black Americans had supported the Republican Party because Abraham Lincoln had ended slavery. But in the 1930s, many Black voters, especially in the North and West where they could vote freely, started supporting the Democratic Party, attracted by the New Deal’s promises of jobs and relief during the Great Depression. However, their hopes for racial equality and civil rights were disappointed. Despite campaigns by civil rights groups pushing for laws against

When you search for periodicals, be sure to distinguish among different types. Mass-market publications, such as newspapers and popular magazines, differ from scholarly publications in their accessibility, audience, and purpose. Consult your instructor because they will often specify what resources you are required to use.
be sure that you know about the different types of periodicals.
Library catalogs can help you locate book-length sources, as well as some types of non-print holdings, such as CDs, DVDs, and audio books. To locate shorter sources, such as magazine and journal articles, you will need to use an online database. CNM’s library website holds a large online database you can use to begin your research.
cnm has a data base that could help for research.
When you begin researching your topic, you will likely use various sources—anything from books and periodicals to video presentations and in-person interviews. Your sources will include both primary sources and secondary sources. As you conduct research, you will want to take detailed, careful notes about your discoveries. These notes will help trigger your memory about each article’s key ideas and your initial response to the information when you return to your sources during the writing process. As you read each source, take a minute to evaluate the reliability of each source you find
take notes while researching for primary and secondary sources.
Your topic and purpose determine whether you must cite both primary and secondary sources in your paper. Ask yourself which sources are most likely to provide answers your research questions. If you are writing a research paper about reality television shows, you will need to use some reality shows as a primary source, but secondary sources, such as a reviewer’s critique, are also important. If you are writing about the health effects of nicotine, you will probably want to read the published results of scientific studies, but secondary sources, such as magazine or journal articles discussing the outcome of a recent study, may also be helpful.
ask yourself what type of sources to use for your paper.
Primary sources are direct, firsthand sources of information or data. For example, if you were writing a paper about the First Amendment right to freedom of speech, the text of the First Amendment in the Bill of Rights would be a primary source. Other primary sources include the following: Research Articles Literary Texts Historical documents such as diaries or letters Autobiographies or other personal accounts Podcasts
the primary sources are what give direct information.
Secondary sources discuss, interpret, analyze, consolidate, or otherwise rework information from primary sources. In researching a paper about the First Amendment, you might read articles about legal cases that involved First Amendment rights or editorials expressing commentary on the First Amendment. These sources would be considered secondary sources because they are one step removed from the primary source of information. The following are examples of secondary sources: Magazine articles Biographical books Literary and scientific reviews Television documentaries
secondary sources are what give commentary or discussion about the primary sources

Kurt Wagner. This is how Facebook collects data on you even if you don’t have an account. Vox, April 2018. URL
Reading this article had me very surprised. But also kind of not. It was about how Facebook tracks and stores data on people that aren't even users on the Facebook platform. I had no idea about Facebook tracking people even if they didn't have a Facebook account. But I totally believe it and it makes sense to me. These social media companies cross so many boundaries just to try and get a little more money. It disturbs me hearing that Facebook can track people that aren't Facebook users and I can't believe this is normalized.
Antiwork: Unemployment for all, not just the rich! 2023. URL: https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/ (visited on 2023-12-05).
I used to scroll this subreddit before it was popular (not that I agreed with the message) and its a pretty interesting case. Originally, the name was very literal and the members wanted to live without working at all or having some socialism-esque alternative. Now its mostly activism against greedy corporations and poor wages. It even had a schism after the subreddit's owner went on TV. Since the owner's opinions were more in line with the origins of the subreddit than current, the members were upset. That event lead to the creation of r/workreform. I find it interesting that this is similar to the users on Digg having a schism and switching over to Reddit.

People have always been living in a complex network of social relationships. There is a saying that you can find anyone in the world by just talking to five people. Social media is taking advantage of this by not only creating profiles based on the isolated user behavior, but also obtaining verification and support from the person's social connections. However, is this kind of arbitrary exploration of user information legal? Even though social media has provided their own guidelines, who would then be in charge of enforcing them? The issue of sexual orientation is inherently more sensitive and private than other information. Have these companies gone beyond the boundaries of their proper duties by collecting such information?

I was deeply impressed by this article titled "Science Isn't Broken". The author pointed out that science is not an infallible system but rather a process of continuous trial and error, correction. I really like this statement because it allows us to see the human side of science - researchers can make mistakes and have biases, but it is precisely this attitude of continuous improvement that enables science to keep advancing. After reading it, I felt quite inspired and was able to better understand that "making mistakes" is actually a part of growth.

This is just silly to me, ethically and logically. Obviously the first issue is, someone who isn't on social media at all should retain the right to keep their information private from massive tech corporations. The idea that companies are using active users as a workaround for mining the personal info of non users is ridiculous, because why do they need info on non users in the first place? And secondly, the method of this data collection is so clunky. It all hinges on the assumption that we're friends with only people we're similar to, so therefore someone with gay friends added must be gay? That's just not how the world works.

It is also important to ask only one question at a time. Questions that ask respondents to evaluate more than one concept (known as double-barreled questions) – such as “How much confidence do you have in President Obama to handle domestic and foreign policy?” – are difficult for respondents to answer and often lead to responses that are difficult to interpret. In this example, it would be more effective to ask two separate questions, one about domestic policy and another about foreign policy.
I agree that double barreled questions shouldn't be asked. I think it can be confusing because the participant will wonder which concept to talk about if there are multiple asked in the question. I think when creating questions, this is something I have to closely pay attention to because I may not realise I am doing it. I wonder, if I am thinking a question I ask might be asking about two things, should I ask the question with one concept, and then just make the second concept a part of that question as a follow up, or make two separate questions for each concept?
One of the most significant decisions that can affect how people answer questions is whether the question is posed as an open-ended question, where respondents provide a response in their own words, or a closed-ended question, where they are asked to choose from a list of answer choices.
Yeah I totally agree with the fact that the way you word a question really changes the kind of answers you get. For example, a bad question would be something like "why is instagram not a good app?" because this is forcing the user to feel some type of way. In my project, I noticed that when I asked open-ended questions like "How do you feel during your week at school?" people give a lot more interesting and detailed answers. I also actually understand how they feel without forcing them to feel some way
One of the most significant decisions that can affect how people answer questions is whether the question is posed as an open-ended question, where respondents provide a response in their own words, or a closed-ended question, where they are asked to choose from a list of answer choices.
I totally agree with that the question posed should be an open-ended question. Open-ended question can inspire people to talk more and have different kinds of thoughts. If we make the question in close-ended version, the responses will be fixed and have no deeper thinkings by the reposnsers. Therefore, choosing the open-edned question will better for us since we can gain more diversed responses.
Perhaps the most important part of the survey process is the creation of questions that accurately measure the opinions, experiences and behaviors of the public. Accurate random sampling will be wasted if the information gathered is built on a shaky foundation of ambiguous or biased questions. Creating good measures involves both writing good questions and organizing them to form the questionnaire.
I completely agree with this paragraph. I remember from the Survey module in our INFO 300 class the design of good survey questions. How do we design questions that accurately depict someones true opinion without having them type in entire paragraphs for each question? One thing I remember is that everyone has a different though on scale. For example, from 1-10, some people think 5 is average while others think 7 is average. It is important to design questions in a way that makes everyones scale of opinion as standardized as possible.
One of the most significant decisions that can affect how people answer questions is whether the question is posed as an open-ended question, where respondents provide a response in their own words, or a closed-ended question, where they are asked to choose from a list of answer choices.
I completely agree that the choice between open-ended and closed-ended questions can significantly impact how people respond and the kind of data we collect. Open-ended questions allow for deeper insights and personal perspectives, but they can be harder to analyze. Closed-ended questions, on the other hand, are easier to compare and quantify but might limit the range of responses. I find this distinction really useful because it reminds me that the type of question I choose should match my research goals—whether I’m trying to explore new ideas or measure specific patterns.
Researchers will sometimes conduct a pilot study using open-ended questions to discover which answers are most common. They will then develop closed-ended questions based off that pilot study that include the most common responses as answer choices. In this way, the questions may better reflect what the public is thinking, how they view a particular issue, or bring certain issues to light that the researchers may not have been aware of.
I find this explanation of using pilot studies to develop better survey questions very insightful and practical. I agree with the idea because starting with open-ended questions allows researchers to ground their closed-ended options in real, authentic responses rather than assumptions. This approach helps avoid bias and ensures the survey reflects how people actually think and talk about an issue. It also changed my perspective by showing how much thought goes into crafting good survey questions; something that seems simple but actually requires careful testing and iteration.

What is the mask is about? Is a phase or a another thing?
The play-within-the-play becomes a montage in film-within-the-film---“the audience of themovie is watching an audience watch a movie. It’s a hall of mirrors.”
What do we think the montage format of the film-within-the-film adds to the story rather than having it just be a reenactment?
A key idea in the film seems to bethat the sensitive, creative young people are trapped in a prison which thwartstheir creativity and individuality.
Ophelia is also thwarted by her dad, which is seen by her expressing her emotions when her dad dies which is in contrast to her conceited personality throughout the film.
This allows Hawke’s Hamlet toincorporate an enormous range of visual images as he edits, re-edits, plays, andreplays snippets from his life shot on a Pixelvision video recorder
We interpreted some of these shots as Hamlet's imagination, we didn't think that he would've taken all those shots of burning oil fields. The chaos of Hamlets life manifests in the TV screens with all the montages.
Hamlet here has an urban and contemporarysetting, a modern Manhattan, surprisingly lacking an identity of its own.
I believe that the setting lacking an identity was intentional and beneficial to the film because of how condensed the film already is. Having no identified setting leaves room for the viewer to fill in some blanks and live in the story in their own mind, and is less overwhelming than having to introduce a setting to an already fast paced film.
In comparison to Kenneth Branagh’s epic version of Hamlet (1996), theAlmereyda film is a relatively low-budget, abbreviated version of the play, runningfor only 106 minutes.
It is impressive how much of the story was captured in these 106 minutes. I feel as though the main story points were all captured, but some themes were a little less prevalent in this film (ex Ophelia water analogy).
In screenplay, style, setting,film score, and casting, Almereyda’s film, like Baz Luhrmann’s WilliamShakespeare’s Romeo +Juliet (1996) foregrounds a postmodern aesthetics
Inspiration from Romeo and Juliet definitely checks, the editing style with modern cinematography while maintaining original dialogue is consistent between these two films.
Spurious Correlations
I see cases of these pointed out online a surprising amount, now I know they have a name! This example is also hilarious and I cant help but wonder if the candles one is valid at least to some degree.
For example, social media data about who you are friends with might be used to infer your sexual orientation [h9]. Social media data might also be used to infer people’s: Race Political leanings Interests Susceptibility to financial scams Being prone to addiction (e.g., gambling)
I would like to mention the ethical issue that everyone has heard before. How would our data be stored, and is it secure enough that we are keeping our privacy? I know we could find an answer by clicking into the privacy terms, and users must agree to it before they can use the app. However, I don't believe everyone will first check all the terms and conditions word by word; they just click 'agree' most of the time. Therefore, I think there should be a clear regulation published by the government that restricts these companies from processing our data, and every user should also monitor the process.
something appears to be correlated, doesn’t mean that it is connected in the way it looks like.
I particularly agree with the sentence mentioned in the text: "Just because something seems related doesn't mean it actually is." This reminds me that in our daily lives, we are often misled by "superficial connections", such as when we see two events occur simultaneously and subconsciously assume they have a causal relationship. This reminds me that when looking at data or making judgments, I should think more carefully about the real reasons behind them instead of being led by numbers or coincidences.
For example, social media data about who you are friends with might be used to infer your sexual orientation [h9]. Social media data might also be used to infer people’s: Race Political leanings Interests Susceptibility to financial scams Being prone to addiction (e.g., gambling) Additionally, groups keep trying to re-invent old debunked pseudo-scientific (and racist) methods of judging people based on facial features (size of nose, chin, forehead, etc.), but now using artificial intelligence [h10].
I find it interesting how social media data can be used to infer a variety of different characteristics and personality traits about the people that use it. I never would have expected social media data can reveal how susceptible a person is to financial scams or how prone to addiction a person can be.
One particularly striking example of an attempt to infer information from seemingly unconnected data was someone noticing that the number of people sick with COVID-19 correlated with how many people were leaving bad reviews of Yankee Candles saying “they don’t have any scent” (note: COVID-19 can cause a loss of the ability to smell):
I found this point of data to be really interesting and honesty a little bit amusing. It is interesting to see how data can indicate trends and major events such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The correlation of bad reviews of candles and people sick might be seemingly unrelated and nonsense information, but is actually an accurate indicator of the effects of the pandemic on people. People who had the virus lost their sense of smell, and that correlated with people not being able to smell the candles and leaving poor reviewed because of that. Visual displays of data like this shows trends and cause and effect relations where one might not usually be able to find.
lol I remember when someone asked if they should report someone that cheated and everyone ganged up on them 😭 Ig it’s really an ethical predicament, you’ll face the consequences eventually whether you’re ratted out or you eventually realize you’re just plain dumb and didn’t learn anything

The main analyses were performed within a Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) framework (Brown, 2015) to test the hypothesized two-factor structure of DSE. The CFA models were estimated with the lavaan package (Rosseel, 2012). Given the ordinal nature of the Likert-scale items, they were treated as ordered categorical variables in the CFA models. This specification handles missing data through pairwise deletion by default.

Creo que debemos hacer una distinción mejor para que se entienda esto (de partida ya estamos usando la abreviación DSE antes de esta parte). Como nos referimos a las anteriores escalas como mediciones de DSE y hasta el momento no eran escalas que en estricto rigor medían la DSE creo que lleva a la confusión. Diría autoeficacia asociada a la tecnología hasta este punto del paper, así quedaría algo más claro, ya que las anteriores escalas no miden lo mismo.

I find this interesting because I notice when scrolling on social media myself that even when I just watch a post longer than I do another it automatically starts showing me related content even if I did not interact with the post at all.
Annotation 10 - Broader Historical Impact Answer: The Brookes diagram contributed to growing moral outrage that eventually led to Britain's abolition of the slave trade in 1807. It also stands today as evidence of how visual propaganda can be used to fight injustice and promote social change.
Annotation 9 - Historical Significance Answer: This print became one of the most powerful visual tools in the abolitionist movement. It helped shift public opinion in Britian by making the suffering of enslaved Africans visible to people who had never witnessed the slave trade firsthand.
Annotation 8 - Hypocrispy of "Regulation" Analysis: The label “under the Regualted Slave Trade” is deeply ironic. Even when “regulated,” conditions remained inhumane. The government's attempts to control cruelty instead legitimized it by setting limits instead of banning the practice.
Annotation 7 - Symbolism Analysis: The way people are drawn tightly packed in rows symbolizes the complete dehumanization of Africans. They are represented as identical and faceless figures, reflecting how the slave system tried to erase individuality and humanity.
Annotation 6 - Connection to Other Documents Connection: This print connects to other abolitionist writings like Olaudah Equiano’s Narrative, which describes firsthand the cruelty and inhumanity of the slave trips. Both reveal how enslaved Africans were treated as commodities rather than people.
Annotation 5 - Questioning the Source Question: How did the creators of this print choose what to show or leave out? While this diagram gives a clear visual of the layout, it doesn't capture the smells, screams, disease, and death that were also part of the journey- raising the question of how much worse was reality than the image shows.
Annotation 4 - Who and Why Context: British abolitionsts like Thomas Clarkson and members of the Socieity for Effecting the Abolition of the Slave Trade published this diagram. Their goal was to make visible the horrific conditions enslaved Africans endured during the Middle Passage, a leg of the triangular trade between Europe, Africa and the Americas.
Annotation 3 - Historical Setting Context: This image was created in the late 18th century (around 1788) in Britian during the transatlantic slave trade. It was used by abolitionists to expose the brutality od the slave trade and convince the public to support its end. The diagram is based on an actual ship called the Brookes that sailed from Liverpool to Africa and then to the Americans.
Annotation 2 - “Regulated Slave Trade” Definition: The British Parliament's 1788 law aimed to set limits on how many enslaved Africans could be carried on slave ships. While called “regulation,” it did not end slavery- it only set minimal standards that still allowed horrific overcrowding and suffering.
Annotation 1 - “Stowage” Definition: The arrangement or packing of cargo in a ship’s hold. In this document, “stowage: refers to how enslaved Africans were packed tightly into confined spaces as if they were cargo, emphasizing the inhuman treatment of people as property.

The current digital ecosystem requires that people’s behaviour online (their clicks, their likes, their follows, their browsing) by monetized (and weaponized).
When gathering source material online, I must be critical/review any data or image found on sites designed purely to make money, ensuring my research is based on neutral, scholarly sources.
The purpose of visualization is insight, not pictures.
This reminds me that my final map as well as any other visual media I create must tell a story of scholarly discovery (ex. Acknowledging how religion affected survival rates). I must not only gather facts that look pretty on the final project map.
Excel is a black box. When we use it, we have to take on faith that its statistics do what they say they are doing.
Just as people mistrusted hidden power in the medieval period, I must avoid any closed software when analyzing my historical data. I will use open-source programs (like R, QGIS, or simple text editing) to clean and process my data so the exact transformation steps are completely visible and not hidden inside a "black box".
The principles that we should follow are: make the data and the methods that generated the results openly available script the stastical analysis (that is, no more point-and-click statistics). More on this below. use version control
This is like keeping a public, perfect record of a medieval financial ledger. When I gather my Black Death data, I must immediately put it into a system (like GitHub) that records every change, so I can always prove where my facts came from and how I used them.
The largest and best known of these is the trans-Saharan trade network, which “extended throughout the Sahara Desert, an expanse of 3,320,000 square miles” (Schraeder 2004a:36). “If you traveled across the United States from Boston to San Diego, you still would not have crossed the Sahara,” explain Marq de Villiers and Sheila Hirtle in a captivating history of the region, “and if you started from Paris you’d be at the Urals, deep into Russia, long before you ran out of Sahara”
This is an example of a centralized state described in this section of the text, also known as the "Trans-Saharan trade Network.
deter-minist views that Africans were incapable of organizing stable “civiliza-tions” or states without external leadership
This part of the paragraph demonstrates what scholars considered misguided about centralized states. They quoted that Africans were incapable of forming a stable civilization.
Necesario entender que el mismo testo no trata de dar una solución a un problema, más bien como en sí mismo propone; Es más importante diferenciar entre las propuestas y soluciones, de entre ellas, ¿Cual es la más acertada y de menos rechazo?
De importancia recalcar que conforme se aprende más de un tema y más información es recopilada, se vuelve más difícil seguir una línea de edición, redacción y orden.
El autor constantemente menciona la importancia de cuestionar y analizar de manera consiente la información que encontramos del tema. Y enfatiza lo repetitivo o cíclico que esto puede ser, pero, me gustaría que indagara en el proceso de formular esas cuestiones que ayudarán al investigador a centrarse en el tema.

Each vertical pillar represents a state that has ratified the new government. In this cartoon, North Carolina’s pillar is being guided into place (it would vote for ratification in November 1789). Rhode Island’s pillar, however, is crumbling and shows the uncertainty of the vote there.
The illustrator is trying to convey the message, that the Constitution’s strength depended on unity. Each pillar stands for a state, and together they support the new government. The crumbling Rhode Island pillar warns that without all states, the system was fragile.

One of the main goals of social media sites is to increase the time users are spending on their social media sites.
This is something I did a school project on in high school and has always really interested me ever since I did that project. I really don't trust and I dislike all social medias now because I know that they are constantly working to make me addicted. And I can feel that it works, try deleting all social media for a day and count how many times you go on your phone and try to click the spot that the app usually is. And then the feeling afterwards when you remember that you deleted it, it really is an addiction. Social media companies know us better than we know ourselves and I am always trying to work to not let that be the case.

Private message.
This article talks about private messaging which reference a direct message/ private chat between 2 people. It explains how on a digital platform whether thats social media,messages,etc this instant communication only occurs with 2 party's of people. Meaning this conversation is kept from the public and the person you shared this message with is only able to see it.
After looking at your ad profile, ask yourself the following: What was accurate, inaccurate, or surprising about your ad profile? How comfortable are you with Google knowing (whether correctly or not) those things about you? { requestKernel: true, binderOptions: { repo: "binder-examples/jupyter-stacks-datascience", ref: "master", }, codeMirrorConfig: { theme: "abcdef", mode: "python" }, kernelOptions: { name: "python3", path: "./ch08_data_mining" }, predefinedOutput: true } kernelName = 'python3'
This was really cool to look at. There weren't as many detailed and invasive categories as I initially imagined, but the fact that Google keeps track of if I'm single or not is kind of weird. I can understand why it might help them to know whether or not I'm a parent, but I'm not so sure about my relationship status. I also realized some of the data points' inaccuracy stems from data they glean from my parents' household information, as well as my occasional dishonesty when answering questions online. For example, Google Ads think I'm 25-34, likely because I've watched Youtube videos or TV shows that are listed for audiences older than me, or sometimes lied about my age to sign up for a website.
Synteza danych z funkcjonalnego rezonansu magnetycznego (fMRI) i pomiarów fizjologicznych pozwala na zbudowanie spójnego modelu neurobiologicznego ASMR. Badania fMRI pokazują, że podczas mrowienia ASMR dochodzi do znacznej aktywacji w regionach mózgu związanych z nagrodą (jądro półleżące) oraz pobudzeniem emocjonalnym i interocepcją (przednia kora zakrętu obręczy, wyspa). 1 Wzór ten jest podobny do obserwowanego podczas dreszczy wywołanych muzyką (frisson), ale odróżnia się skutkiem fizjologicznym – ASMR prowadzi do redukcji tętna, podczas gdy frisson może je podnosić. 2

What are your biggest concerns around privacy on social media
My biggest concern around privacy on social media would be my personal data information being leaked to the world. This could contain my phone number, bank account, address, password and more. With this I have a fear of social media hackers who could access this information but then utilize it and weaponize it against myself. Leading to many safety hazards.

No specialized AI detectors can detect AI writing with high accuracy and without the risk of false positives, especially after multiple rounds of prompting. Even watermarks won’t help much.People can’t detect AI writing well. Editors at top linguistics journals couldn’t. Teachers couldn’t (though they thought they could - the Illusion again). While simple AI writing might be detectable (“delve,” anyone?), there are plenty of ways to disguise “AI writing” styles through simples prompting. In fact, well-prompted AI writing is judged more human than human writing by readers.You can’t ask an AI to detect AI writing (even though people keep trying). When asked if something written by a human was written by an AI, GPT-4 gets it wrong 95% of the time.
AI detection cannot be completed by AI detectors, the human AI or other AI tools.

Unwillingly obedient, my mother took it from me and put it to her mouth. There were only a few drops left in the now-shrunken, elastic shell, but she squeezed them out, swallowed them, and after a few moments some of the lines of tension began to smooth from her face.
The mother is reluctant but goes along with what her child wants.
There was actually a time when my mother told me to show respect for Qui because he was my older brother. I walked away, hating him. In his way, he was gloating. He was safe and I wasn't. I could have hit him, but I didn't think I would be able to stand it when he refused to hit back, when he looked at me with contempt and pity.
He feels angry and powerless because Qui is safe while he is not, and he avoids hitting him to escape humiliation and pity.
After a moment, she looked up at me, her sudden stillness a sign of deep impatience.
Her sudden stillness shows she is impatient and wants Gan to act quickly.
But tomorrow, she would remember all this as a humiliation. I did not want to be part of a remembered humiliation.
He understands boundaries and chooses to protect his mother from future embarrassment or regret.

Gestalt psychologie
Gestaltpsychologie is een stroming binnen de psychologie die stelt dat het hele waargenomen patroon groter is dan de som der delen. Het is een Duitse term die 'geheel' of 'zinvolle vorm' betekent en benadrukt dat onze hersenen informatie organiseren en patronen zien, in plaats van losse elementen. De theorie heeft diepgaande implicaties voor hoe we de wereld waarnemen, met belangrijke wetten zoals nabijheid, overeenkomstigheid en continuïteit. Kernconcepten Het geheel is meer dan de som der delen: We nemen geen losse fragmenten waar, maar een geïntegreerd, betekenisvol geheel.
This context of hegemonicChristianity
I don't know if it's revelant or not, but I feel like the use of the colonial tool of religion to impose heterosexuality and the binary approach should be mentioned, as it is intertwined with the patriarchal, racist (the context of the civic right movements) and capitalist systems (which laid on religion using morality and so on). And I feel like it should be mentioned even more and not just poiting out Christianity alone... Can someone enlight me ?

The Huns' dislocation of the Alans and Goths resulted in the migration of the Visigoths from the Black Sea region, to ultimately seek refuge south of the Danube River.
it’s cool how one group’s push—like the Huns forcing the Alans and Goths—started this domino effect of migrations.
And by 250, a hierarchical structure had been built in the new church, with bishops in Rome, Alexandria, and Antioch and the removal of women from leadership roles that most historians agree they had occupied in the early years of the faith.
It’s interesting how quickly the leadership became more centralized and male-dominated. Did persecution push the church to become more organized, or was this part of a wider social trend?
Paul was constantly writing letters to far-flung christian communities throughout the Mediterranean world.
Those letters weren’t just personal notes, but powerful tools shaping belief. It’s amazing that we still read and study those epistles thousands of years later!
The three men who shared power were Octavian, Marc Antony, and Marcus Aemilius Lepidus.
It’s surprising how different they were in age and experience; Octavian only 19, Antony about 39, and Lepidus around 50. I'm assuming that age gap must have created tensions in how they ruled together.
Wu also promoted Confucianism as the state ideology and the basis of Civil Service.
Turning Confucianism into an official state doctrine might be one of his most lasting legacies. imagine if Legalism or another philosophy had remained dominant
Greek city-states took the opportunity of Philip's death to revolt, but Alexander crushed rebellions like that at Thebes, where he razed the city in 335 BCE. He then drafted an army from his Greek vassals to support a conquest of the Persian Empire.
I wonder if his way of fighting was a deliberate strategy to prevent further revolts or the pride of proving himself, maybe a mix of both.
Instead he took what we might call a more politically realistic approach to interpreting events, calling on human nature, fear, and self interest as the main motivations of conflict.
it sounds almost like political realism in international relations today. I wonder if his insights into human motivation influenced later political thinkers like Machiavelli or Hobbes.
n the first decade of this long war, a Spartan hoplite army invaded Attica but was held back by Athens' defenses, especially fortifications called the Long Walls that linked the city with its port, Piraeus.
It’s impressive how Athens relied on engineering more than direct combat to protect itself compared to the spartans. I wonder how effective those Long Walls were in maintaining supply lines during sieges.
Tyre's sister city, Sidon, became the center of an extremely lucrative trade in purple dye made from snail shells in a process the Phoenicians (whose name actually means purple people) kept a close secret to preserve their monopoly.
I think it’s cool that their identity was tied to a color! I know that purple was a color for royalty, so I wonder if it was associated with luxury because it was rare.
Although the society was still patriarchal, elite women managed households, estates, and even politics.
That’s quite impressive for the ancient world as it almost sounds like Spartan women had more influence than Athenian women. I assuming this made the Spartan society more stable while the men were away at war, which would make sense.
In order to keep control over the much more numerous native population, elite Spartan men devoted their entire existences to a military system that began at age seven with brutal communal training in the agoge.
It actually kind of scary to think about how young and early the men had to go into military training, but also interesting because their culture was so closely connected with their military and fighting.
These are things which many of our employers think their “ignorant” workmen do not understand. But they are greatly mistaken, and will have to resort to some other means of deceiving us than these. Happy are we that we have the means of telling them of their loose acts, and of exposing them to the public.
Observation: The writer says bosses think workers are too dumb to notice being cheated, but the workers do know and can now speak out to the public.
Interpretation: This means workers were starting to see the truth and stand up for what’s right.
Connection: This connects to the time when workers began joining together to fight for fair pay and better treatment.
What I learned connects to my connection because both show that workers started to see the truth and stand up for themselves. The writer says workers knew they were being treated unfairly, and this connects to how they began working together for fair pay. It connects because unfair treatment made them speak up and fight for change.
Causality: Because bosses treated workers unfairly, workers began to speak up and work together to make changes.
This may seem exaggeration to some; but reflection and careful observation will confirm the justness of my remarks.
Observation: The writer says some people might think he’s making things sound worse than they are, but if they really look closely, they’ll see he’s telling the truth.
Interpretation: This means he believes the unfair treatment of workers is real and that people just need to pay attention to see it.
Connection: This connects to the time when workers began to speak up about unfair jobs and wanted others to notice what was happening.
What I learned connects to my connection because both show that workers wanted people to see the truth about unfair treatment. The writer wanted others to notice the problem, and over time more people did. This connects because once people saw how bad things were, they started to make changes and fight for workers’ rights.
Change Over Time: Over time, more people started to see the truth about how badly workers were treated, which led to changes like new labor laws and better rights for workers.
Thousands do it now, in as plain terms as they dare. Look at their actions. If any thing destroys our liberties, it will be the influence of riches
Observation: The writer says rich people act like they’re better than others and warns that money and greed could destroy people’s freedom.
Interpretation: This means he believes that too much power in the hands of the rich is dangerous for the country.
Connection: This connects to the time when workers wanted equal rights and fair treatment because they felt the rich were taking control.
What I learned connects to my connection because both show that workers had to stand up for their freedom. The writer warns that if people don’t speak up, the rich will take control. This connects because, in the 1830s, workers started to speak out and work together to make things fair.
Contingency: The writer suggests that the future of freedom depends on what people do now if workers speak up and demand fairness, liberty can be protected, but if they stay silent, the rich could take over.
Mr. Editor.—Although our papers are constantly holding forth grievances to the public, yet I would ask the exposition of another, which, although justly ranked among the worst, is, notwithstanding, the least dwelt upon
Observation: The writer tells the editor that even though people already talk about many worker problems, there’s another big one that doesn’t get enough attention.
Interpretation: This means he wants people to notice a serious problem that most have ignored.
Connection: This connects to the time when workers began using newspapers to talk about unfair pay and treatment.
What I learned connects to my connection because both show workers trying to speak up for fairness. The writer used the newspaper to tell others about unfair treatment, just like many workers did in the 1830s. This helps you see how people started using their voices to stand up for their rights and ask for better treatment.
Context: In the 1830s, factories were growing fast, and many workers were treated unfairly, so people started speaking up and trying to make things better.

The [Periplus of the Erythraean Sea](Periplus of the Erythraean Sea), a Greek sailing guide written around 60 CE describes the Aksum port of Adulis (in modern Eritrea) as a "Great Emporium" where Aksumite merchants traded with "barbarians" from the interior.
It's kind of funny how ancient Greeks called the inland folks “barbarians,” but Aksum was the middleman making those deals happen.
When Octavian invaded Egypt, Cleopatra killed herself to avoid being paraded in chains through the streets of Rome.
Cleopatra’s suicide, i think, was a final act to preserve her dignity and sovereignty.
2 billion people live without mobile phones
At times I would like to be part of this 2 billion people. I think sometimes we are so connected to our phones that we don't know what to do without them.
60% of the world's population is offline
I found this surprising because we use the Internet daily. It’s easier to forget that most of the world still doesn’t have reliable access online.
Only 31% of people in developing economies have access
This statistic clearly shows the digital divide. People in wealthier countries have way more access to technology, which affects education and job opportunity.
6 billion people live without broadband
I was shocked by this number, I didn’t realize that so many people still don’t have access to fast Internet

3% Amazon Retail
I thought Amazon would have a much higher profit margin since used. This shows that even big companies in retail have lower profit percentage compared to technology or publishing industry
22% Apple Computing 23% Google Technology
Interesting how technology companies like Apple and Google makes such high profit. It shows how powerful the tech industry has become in shaping, global markets and daily life
Anyone Here?
I have a personal computer and/or smartphone with a data plan and internet access
This one stood out because it’s something most people don’t think of as a privilege, but it really is. Not everyone can afford their own own device or internet
I have access to many databases and journals through my college library.
How much easier it is to do research in college. Having access to databases save so much time and help me find more credible information.
had easy access to the internet growing up.
I use the Internet for everything so forget that some students might not have the same access
My high school had access to scholarly databases
I took this for granted in high school because I got all the same resources
Create README with deployment steps
The example comes from the replication crisis in social psychology75
How to replicate the replication crisis
it's sometimes easy to forget that what's known as the digital divide still exists.
I definitely relate to this. I use technology every day so I forget that a lot of people around the world don’t have Internet access or the same learning opportunities.
The idea that status impacts your access to information is nothing new
I never realize how social or education level could affect what information people can access
Amid the constellation of Wendy’s many spiritual beliefs, family ties are what she finds most important to transmit to the next generation. Scott, Laura, and Wendy represent how second-generation Chinese Americans are diverse not only in socioeconomic background, geographic upbringing, and dialect, but also in their nonreligious affiliations, beliefs, and practices.
