    17. However, when fighting from some physical disadvantage or when defendingoneself from a white oppressor, the ideal was to strike a butting-style headblow and finish the fight before it even developed.

      disadvantage

    18. style worked from an opening stance in which “each contestant placed onehand on his opponent’s shoulder at or near the collar line, and with the otherhe clutched his opponent’s arm directly above the elbow.”20 This style alsoincluded groundwork and became popular in America because it gave theadvantage to skill rather than size and allowed for contests between individu-als of different sizes

      collar-and-elbow, Irish wrestling, advantage

    19. Similarly, the unarmed martial arts were living traditions that could spreadin the Americas even when only a few practitioners were introduced to aregion. As these arts had served as a base of support in difficult times in Africa,under the exceedingly horrific experience of racial slavery in the Americas evenlone martial arts masters may have been called upon to serve their new com-munities as sources of defensive leadership. These arts did not die with suchmasters but were effectively passed on horizontally (to peers rather than exclu-sively to progeny) even to those whose patrimony came from areas of Africaother than Biafra and southern Angola.

    26. When he arrived on the coast some seven months later,Equiano met coastal Biafrans whose culture and language were completelyunfamiliar to him. In expressing this difference Equiano noted the foreignnessof their fighting style along with other traits: “All the nations and people I hadhitherto passed through, resembled our own in their manners, customs, andlanguage; but I came at length to a country, the inhabitants of which differedfrom us in all those particulars. I was very much struck with this difference,especially when I came among a people who did not circumcise . . . and foughtwith their fists among themselves.”5

    1. texte/image/édifices

      texte = synthèse image = gravure édifices = ?

      Je ne suis pas sûre du correspondant d'édifice.

    2. l’exposition des images (dont on n’a pas parlé ici)

      justement est ce que ces images ont posé problème lors de l'édition numérique, lors de l'annotation ? Est-ce qu'elles ont généré des dynamiques à elles seules dans l'entreprise collaborative ? ou des défis particuliers ?

    3. Ce sera tout le travail de l’équipe resserrée des éditeurs, à partir de la récupération des commentaires collaboratifs depuis Hypothesis.

      sous quel format ? encodage en TEI ? et si oui est ce que justement la réflexion sur un balisage spécifique en TEI pour rendre compte du processus d'annotation et de son hétérogénéité est prévu ?

    4. format prototypai

      prototypal ?

    5. l’allusion brève, l’association d’idée, le « lien faible » (Mellet 2020)

      Est ce que ce type traduit la résonnance du corpus ? le réactualise plutôt ? ou est d'un tout autre ordre ?

      Pourquoi ? en quel sens ? (je suis intéressée à avoir des précisions, d'autant plus intéressant d'en parler ici)

    9. ont critiqué une méthode par « saucissonage » du texte, sans comprendre que notre chapitrage ad hoc (nous avons déterminé des sections d’une trentaine de pages) n’avait d’autre but que de permettre, dans la double contrainte du calendrier et du collectif, de tourner l’une après l’autre et ensemble, les 240 pages du livre en un an et demi.

      Est-ce que cela veut dire que les chercheurs ont lu d'une traite l'entièreté de l'ouvrage en dépassant la temporalité prévue par l'édition ? Ce serait un phénomène intéressant en effet qui lie enjeux de partage/diffusion avec enjeux du collaboratif/commun.

    10. lecture collective continue, exhaustive, et suivie de cet ouvrage aux allures de monument

      En quel sens continue ? Avez-vous une exemple qui illustre cette continuité ?

    11. du même support textuel

      Je serai curieuse d'en savoir plus sur ce partage à l'écran : est-ce que c'est la projection du texte sur un écran visible par tous les chercheurs présents, ou le partage entre les différents individus qui l'ouvrent simultanément sur leur différentes machines ? si tel est le cas, le terme support peut être à double tranchant parce que le support physique d'une page en ligne c'est aussi l'interface machine.

    12. le sens ne se révèle justement que par jeux d’échos et de réseaux

      Est-ce que l'édition HTML comportait justement des hyperliens pour valoriser ces échos ?

    13. des régimes textuels (littéral et numérique)

      Littéral au sens de composé de lettres opposé au numérique comme composé de chiffres (0 et 1) ? ou littéral au sens de papier opposé à numérique comme support ?

    14. choix d’éditorialisation définitifs.

      Comme cela n'est pas précisé par la suite, je me permets de demander selon quelle définition l'éditorialisation est ici appréhendée : Merzeau, Vitali-Rosati, Bachimont, Chartron ? Si besoin je peux suggérer des références.

    1. « lieux satellitaires »

      Est-ce que la multiplicité des lieux satellitaires ici est due à la diversité des dispositifs de téléprésence (robots de téléprésence ou logiciel de visioconférence) ou simplement au fait qu'il y a plusieurs individus connectés séparemment ?

    1. module Inner : X = struct

      Is it necessary to specify :X here given it is already declared in the signature of T?

    1. the inefficiency is not from the pipeline operator itself, but from having to construct all those unnecessary intermediate lists.

      Is there a way to generate list lazily and apply all the operations to each element as it is produced? I'm thinking about Haskell, Rust, Java Streams, etc. where the elements are generates on-demand and only the final result is inserted in the final list.

      What role do you think Coursetune could play here?

    1. Au premier, selon moi, parmi les biens qu'on x doit aimer pour eux-mêmes et pour leurs conséquences, si l'on aspire au bonheur.

      Si on aime la justice pour ce qu'elle est et pour sa conséquence, est-ce dire que ses effets représentent ce plaisir qu'elle donne ? Car si on voit cette conséquence comme un autre avantage qu'elle mène à sa suite, que nous ne recherchons pas la justice en elle-même mais aussi pour ses effets (que la justice soit bonne, justement appliquée : car bien que son principe est d'être juste, elle pourrait, paradoxalement, ne pas l'être), ne ferait-elle pas aussi partie de la troisième espèce de biens ?

    1. "The basic principle behind REST status code conventions is that a status code must make the client aware of what is going on and what the server expects the client to do next"
    2. You can fulfill this principle by giving answers to the following questions:Is there a problem or not?If there is a problem, on which side is it? On the client or on the server side?If there is a problem, what should the client do?
    1. We believe that StylEx is a promising step towardsdetection and mitigation of previously unknown biases inclassifiers.

      Question: What kind of biases in classifiers?

    2. AttFind takes as input the trained model and a set of N im-ages whose predicted label by C is different from y. Foreach class y (e.g., y=“cat” or y=“dog”), AttFind then findsa set Sy of M style coordinates (i.e., Sy ⊂ [1, . . . , K] and|Sy|= M ), such that changing these coordinates increasesthe average probability of the class y on these images.

      Question: How can you actually define a style coordinate? How should I envision this?

    3. ablation

      Question: Ablation refers to the removal of an component within the AI system. Does it mean in this context that the loss will be deconstructed or something?

    4. latent vector w

      Question: This is a compressed representation of the image, right?

    5. a) A conditionalgenerative model that maps an embedding w into an outputimage. b) An encoder that maps any input image into anembedding w, so that the generator can modify attributesin real images. c) A mechanism for “intervening” with thegeneration process to change visual attributes in the image

      Network architecture in detail, generative model: StyleGAN2 -> question, are there possible alternatives to using StyleGAN2?

    6. It should be emphasized that our goal is not to explainthe true label, but rather what classifiers are learning.

      Interesting! If we were to use post-hoc explanations (think of SHAP and LIME), would you say that we intend to explain the true label, right?

    7. Deep net classifiers are often described as “black boxes”whose decisions are opaque and hard for humans to under-stand. This significantly holds back their usage, especiallyin areas of high societal impact, such as medical imagingand autonomous driving, where human oversight is critical.

      Would you argue that e.g. MLP is also a deep net? I would slightly rephrase the term "deep net" and change it into something like "neural network-based classifiers".

      But, related to this, I actually found quite a relevant and interesting additional paper! It happened to be published 3 days ago, and the paper basically argued that you don't neccesarily need deep convnets to solve similar societal problems - any problem that can be solved using a transformer can be solved by a MLP/CNN, and vice versa, provided that you do exhaustive tuning and use the right inductive bias. Idem ditto for RNNs!

    1. NEET does not test qualities that a doctor must possess such as compassion, empathy and passion to serve humanity. Accordingly hardly any doctor is willing to serve in rural areas. NEET toppers won’t necessarily make good doctors.
      • why dont they implement ethics syllabus (like GS4 of UPSC) in NEET entrance, even in PG also ?

    1. third party, in which case personal data held by it about its customers will be one of the transferred assets.

      I was going to respond to the survey until I saw this. I am offering to provide feedback for free and yet my personal information is collected and becomes part of the sale of the business in the form of an asset. The question is why is my personal information being held for any length of time after I have completed the survey? Isn't that a violation of GDPR?

    2. digital methodo collect

      I am unsure what this is and assume it is an error? If this is an error that seems odd that no-one was checking this as it is important information about how our data is used and gathered. If there are errors here, how can we be assured that our data is safe?

    1. Justice and equality are hegemonic ideas today. Secularism is conditioned to see them as good and decent and right. This is why it feels rational when we challenge oppressors. We accuse the privileged and the elite of injustice and unfairness. When they push back, with counter accusations, we see it as whataboutery.

    1. call works with any lifetime &self happens to have at that point.

      Do not understand this.

    1. Long and short call or put options

      Can we have a long put and a short call ?? What is the difference between going long and buying a call ?

    2. Equal and opposite positions in the market for a fully hedged position (e.g., hedging one long position with an equally sized short position)

      Doesn't it just add up to nothing ? No profit can ba generated from this, it will always be 0 ?

    3. Figure 26.14

      Biais == bearish or bullish ??

    4. igure 26.13

      Stock vs. Index ??

    5. Generally speaking, with the exclusion of late entries, the higher the price of a long entry, the more aggressive in price and conservative in time of entry it becomes

      Can we have a situation that is conservative both in time and price ?

      Yes/No :

      • cf. Fig.26.9 for Yes
      • cf. Fig. 26.10 for No

      => Yes : cf. paragraph D. of page 843

    6. Support levels for longs and resistance levels for shorts

      Isn't there a problem if we long at a breached support ? Same for shorting a breached resisitance ? We want the price to go up for a long and down for a short so it seems to me that it's the inverse ???

    7. At extremely high levels of leverage, the concept of aggressiveness and conservativeness with respect to the price on entry or exit di-minishes rapidly

      Because with a small capital, one can create a large margin position => sheer capital invested is no longer significant due to leverage

    8. Very late short or long entries with respect to support or resistance ■ Very early or premature long entries above support in a downtrend (both aggressive) ■ Very early or premature short entries below resistance in an uptrend (both

      ???

    9. Long entries taken below resistance in an uptrend ■ Short entries taken above support in a downtrend ■ Long entries taken just below a failed support ■ Short entries taken just above a failed resistance

      Isn't it the inverse ? short entry taken just below/above a failed support (since we want to see price decline)?

    10. It should also be noted that the longer it takes for a consolidation to unfold, the larger will be the number of potential buy stop orders that lie above the resistance zone and sell stop orders that populate just below the support zone. This explains why larger consolidations tend to produce stronger and more persistent breakouts

      buy stop orders place limit orders at the support, soif a lot of stop buy orders are triggered ,this places manylimit orders at support, and allows price to rebound strongly enough to pierce through the resistance

    11. stoplosses are es-sentially stop orders, which are trend promoting in nature

      WHY??

    12. inhibiting in nature

      WHY???

    15. other third‐measure values over similar durations
      • What is a third-measure ?
      • Which third-measures are they talking about?
      • Is it that of stock B that they're talking about ?

      i.e. Compare third-measure of stock A to that of stock B over similar durations to find which one is the more volatile ?

    16. ncrease in Price Fluctuations over Equal Durations Indicating Potential Rise in Volatility

      Why is the first measure of volatilty satisfied ?

      Maybe because the time period is the "equal duration" ??

    17. over equal durations

      How do we pick the durations ?

    18. we could not determine which stock was more volatile since the maximum amount of price change over equal durations were the same for both
      • What about comparing over smaller time periods, if we do this, we'll clearly see that there are differences ?
      • How do we pick the timeframe ?
    19. exponential or parabolic

      Isn't it parabolic in t his example, since y'' = cte ?

    20. This is because the bands are adjusted with respect to actual price action over a certain period of observation

      Period of observation which is the band's periodicity ?

    21. confirmation in the near or front month futures contract

      Crypto -> expiration des contrats futurs ?

    22. bearish chart patterns within a falling channel and bullish chart patterns with a rising channel.

      Strange since it's the opposite for wedges, and wedges resemble channels quite a lot ?!

    23. rising channel meeting its minimum one‐to‐one downside price objective.

      Is a rising channel bearish ?

    24. It cannot be projected into the future for potential barrier levels.

      WHY???

    25. Many of the failed buy signals found on the chart in Figure 12.15 would have been successfully avoided or filtered out had the reversal entry breakout tech-nique been employed

      WHY ???

      Reversal entry breakout -> return to the mean ?

    26. Figure 12.11 is an example of tuning the fixed percentage bands to a domi-nant cycle on the four‐hour chart of GBPUSD. The trough‐to‐trough cycle period was 133 bars. Using the third formula would also yield ((2×133) +3)/4 = 67.25. Rounding to the closest integer would give us 67 periods or bars

      Does this mean that the central line is the 67 lookback period and that we obtain the bands by fixed perccentage (here 1.3%, cf. Fig. 12.11) ?

    27. Figure 12.4

      The diagonal channel is static and not dynamic ??

    28. Price below the central value is a bearish indication, but price below the lower band is considered much more bearish. Similarly, price above the central value is a bullish indication, but price above the upper band is considered much more bullish.

      How can this be when the price is also supposed to reintegrate the bandwidth ?

    29. Notice that un-like double and triple detrending, which tends to remove lag between the oscillator and price, double and triple smoothing increases the price lag.

      What is the difference between detrending and smoothing ?

      • smoothing = prendre le MA d'un oscillateur. Ex. : %D = 3-period SMA of raw %K
      • detrending = faire la différence entre deux MA !
    30. double detrending reduces the lag components between price and the oscillators

      WHY ???

    31. igure 11.21

      Serious lag issue, no ?

    32. seven-period

      Why 7 and not 3 as indicated page 260 ?

    33. nine-period

      what does a nine-period EMA mean ??

    34. Periods 2/Exponential Weighting Ratio 1
      • How do we get this formula ?
      • What does the term periods actually mean ?
    35. no lag with respect to price

      But we need to know future information since it is located in the middle of N bars => we need to know N/2 bars in the future. That's why there's no lag !!

    36. THE HAnDbook of TEcHnIcAl AnAlySIS436In technical analysis, the average price is usually positioned at the last right-most bar on the chart, that is, at the current bar. This is the non-centered or end-displaced version of a moving average. It is technically incorrect to place the average price at the last bar, but in technical analysis this is done because it is being used as a barrier to price, that is, as potential levels of support and resistance, it is able to interact with price. Although there is no price lag in the centered version, the moving average does not extend to the most recent bars and therefore cannot provide a barrier to price.

      WHY ???

    37. Expansion

      Extra what?

    2. begins to be paid down on a monthly basis at a 50% rate, those credits may still be used towards Quarterly Love Credit quotas.

      Does this mean people are paid out at a 1/2 rate? What (if anything) incentivizes people to "cash out" here? Or is the purpose to get people to keep their shares in the org?

    3. private entities can sponsor the work needed to design and carry out the DisCOlarship.

      With this kind of sponsorship, do you envision that some of the funds will go towards creating infrastructure or being piped into the DisCOs account to pay out other folks that aren't directly involved in the training process?

    4. The three scenarios are:

      what if someone walks away from the process and has no desire to continue working with DisCOs?

    5. unlike value tracking for contributors, it's not expected to be either latent or unfulfilled.

      I think this sentence helps convince people that are interested in DisCOlarships, but may disuade people interested in contributing. the "expectation" for the credits to be unfulfilled. Question that pops to mind, why track my hours if there is an expectation that nothing will ever come of it?

    6. it is much easier to record contributions according to grade and measure. If you're not familiar with those terms, it basically means "quantity and quality".

      why not just say "quantity and quality" here?

    7. DisCOLarships

      Why is the L capitalized and not the rest of the word?

    8. 1 DisCOLarships: Where individuals regularly "visit" the DisCO.NP to learn about DisCO culture and structure in the real world, get to know the people, etc. There are minimal responsibilities and the DisCOLar is free to start their own DisCO afterward or join the same DisCO they have trained in. 2 The DisCO Dating Phase: Where potential members make a firm commitment to go through the DisCO.NP's mentoring and training program in order to become committed members or DisCONauts. There are considerable, consented-upon responsibilities on the part of the DisCO Dating Member and the DisCO-NP itself during this process.

      The difference between these two options is not immediately clear.

      Is it that the DisCOLar path is oriented towards creating new DisCOs and the dating is oriented towards joining the mothership?

    9. The DisCO Applications Program includes DisCO Governance Model templates for:

      Do these templates already exist? Do we have orgs that we can pilot these templates with?

    10. Other organizations wanting to become a LAB

      Are these organizations that have reached out to DisCO Mothership, or are these orgs that y'all feel would be good DisCOs?

    11. mirror balls

    1. Figure 10.76

      Retracement or Expansion ?? How do we differentiate both of these ??

    2. Fibonacci retracement levels (measured across the range AB)

      QUESTION : Is the paper version correct ?

    3. diagonally. As a consequence, Fibonacci channel expansions will yield dif-ferent results depending on the type of scaling used on the charts.

      diagonal -> time effect -> depends on scaling of the chart

    4. BC

      WHY ??? Peut-être car en cas de double possibilité, on ne considère de préférence la plus petite ?

    5. Extension

      Isn't it rather an expansion where the up after point B fails and goes lower than the previous trough at B ?

    6. extensions

      expansion instead ??

    7. signal line

      moyenne mobile ?? Oui, cf. page 246

    8. Current and Prior Larger Trends

      What are the current and prior larger trends ? Aren't they the same as wave degree ??

    9. violating point 1

      How do we determine this horizontal line for point 1 ?

    10. points 1 and 2

      ???

    11. Remember that slope and reverse divergence are mutually exclusiv

      Why ???

    13. devoid of any visible peaks and troughs (F

      Why aren't there any waves in Fig. 9.8 ?

    14. reverse bearish

      So when we look at peaks, the price indicates the trend when there is a disagreement between price and signal, however when it's troughs, the signal expresses the upcoming trend ???

    15. To construct these pivot points, first find the previous day’s typical price. This represents the next day’s pivot level, PP

    1. My mistake was thinking I could be anythingother than hungry.My mistake was thinking I could be anything other

      three lines three different way to interpret. to be anything to be anything other than XXX to be anything other (is this the same as to be anything else? )

    2. Lying motionless

      Accessing memory but failing just like trying to get a glimpse through a curtained window. Lying motionless here and now? Or when every one was afraid? Is the terrible effort the effort to access memory?

    3. lent

      strange strange verb here; Lent to whom from the daughter?

    4. His

      First instance of using third person "Him"?

    5. to liaison

      Liaison is not really a verb but still one can connect, one can make phonetic connection between words or social connection, often illicit, between peoples. What does this mean?

    1. the power to destroy may defeat and render useless the power to create

      Is this the foundational argument for the Supremacy Clause? For this example, does this mean if the states had the power to influence federal programs or policies, that the powers delegated to the federal government would be redundantly delegated?

    2. which might disappoint its most important designs

      What is meant by "most important designs"? Is it meant that the state governments are supposed to depend on the federal government and not vice versa? If so, that seems to go against the core contractual aspect of federalism.

    3. component parts

      What is meant by "component parts" here? Are they the states? Are they the powers given to the federal government by the Constitution?

    4. is not supreme.

      When do state laws take effect over federal laws? How do you know when which is supreme? or vice versa?

    5. But if the full application of this argument could be admitted, it might bring into question the right of Congress to tax the State banks, and could not prove the rights of the States to tax the Bank of the United States.

      Based on the relationship between State, banks, and General Government, is this suggesting a contradiction or non mutual relationship between the 3 in this line of argument?

    6. every argument which would sustain the right of the General Government to tax banks chartered by the States, will equally sustain the right of the States to tax banks chartered by the General Government.

      Is this relationship between State, banks, and General Government rooted in reciprocity or mutual responsiblity?

    7. No political dreamer was ever wild enough to think of breaking down the lines which separate the States, and of compounding the American people into one common mass. Of consequence, when they act, they act in their States.

      Why is where the assembly took place relevant to the case and why exactly are they defending it?

    8. Its means are adequate to its ends, and on those means alone was it expected to rely for the accomplishment of its ends.

      This whole phrase is really confusing me? I'm not able to even figure out what any of the parts mean, could anybody help me out?

    9. CONFIDENCE.

      Is this something that is actively being said? If so, is this something that was yelled a little but louder? Or was this only written and capitalized for effect.

    10. We

      I saw "we" being mentioned throughout this whole thing but I'm still a little bit confused as to where the introductions would be. Is this just assumed or am I missing something?

    11. but by people over whom they claim no control.

      Is this suggesting that if States were allowed to tax the Federal Government, would States hold power and authority over citizens outside of their state? Would State laws apply universally?

    12. incompatible with the language of the Constitution.

      How exactly is the necessity of resorting to mean which it cannot control not compatible with the language outlined in the Constitution?

    13. thus leaving the question whether the particular power which may become the subject of contest has been delegated to the one Government, or prohibited to the other, to depend on a fair construction of the whole instrument.

      Is this suggesting that there is isn't any sort of protocol for when certain issues arise that causes question on what government has authority over said issue?

    14. It is true, they assembled in their several States—and where else should they have assembled?

      When assembling in their states, did they form permanent locations to meet or was it a random?

    15. But if the full application of this argument could be admitted, it might bring into question the right of Congress to tax the State banks, and could not prove the rights of the States to tax the Bank of the United States.

      Is this saying that the federal government can tax the states, but the states cannot tax the federal government?

    16. This is, we think, the unavoidable consequence of that supremacy which the Constitution has declared.

      A lot of this argument seems centered around the idea that the people, via its representatives, declared the Constitution has supreme power over states. In this, a State (and by extension, representatives of the people) is arguing the apparent supremacy of the federal gov't over the state, doesn't this contradict the argument of the Supreme Court a bit, that the will of the people was for a federal gov't to hold supreme over state?

    17. The people of all the States have created the General Government,

      A lot of what we've read up to this point make it seem like the Supreme Court acts as a kind of voice for the Constitution, that it would interpret and enforce the objectives of it. It's never felt like a branch that was representative of the people. Does the Supreme Court ever act or treat itself as representative of the people, or does it more view itself as a representation of the Constitution?

    18. It was reported to the then existing Congress of the United States

      I'm assuming he means with this line, the congress as it existed under the Articles of Confederation. My question is why bring up this quick history recap? Is it to argue that the States, in ratifying the Constitution and the new Federal government, were granting that the Federal Government held a certain amount of power of them? Something else?

    19. The Constitution of our country, in its most interesting and vital parts, is to be considered, the conflicting powers of the Government of the Union and of its members, as marked in that Constitution, are to be discussed, and an opinion given which may essentially influence the great operations of the Government....

      Does Marshall regularly define the scope of the case like this at the start of his decisions? I don't recall anything similar in Marbury v Madison.

    20. The powers of the General Government, it has been said, are delegated by the States, who alone are truly sovereign, and must be exercised in subordination to the States, who alone possess supreme dominion.

      Does Maryland grapple with the idea that the sovereignty and power of the states comes from the people in its argument that the Constitution receives its power from the states, as opposed to the people?

    21. The Government of the Union then ... is, emphatically and truly, a Government of the people....

      What's the deal with these ellipses? Is there actual text omitted? Or did Marshall literally include these marks in his writing?

    22. we shall find it capable of changing totally the character of that instrument

      I don't understand what this is saying? So on the basis of Marylands contends it changes the meaning of what the Bank means in the constitution?? I'm not sure if I even read it correctly the end of the sentence isn't making sense to me. Changes the character of what instrument? Constitution?

    23. the Bank of the United States is a law made in pursuance of the Constitution, and is a part of the supreme law of the land....

      What does this mean? so the bank of the united states is inherently also the supreme law of the land?

    24. the instrument,

      Whats the term "instrument" referring to here? the constitution? or the creation of it?
