These are examples of jobs being filled by AI

Is AI taking over jobs? We don’t know. Both viewpoints have their own logic that makes perfect sense.
this is the conclusion where they conclude with the uncertainty of what the future holds
-
Instead of AI replacing jobs, humans will take on more advanced decision-making jobs to increase efficiency.
This part of the paragraph talks about AI making a positive impact on the job market by introducing better jobs
-
Since the 2000s, automation systems have already eliminated 1.7 million jobs. This number is only going to increase as AI plays a bigger role in everyone’s lives. Some have predicted that AI is going to take away 85 million jobs by 2025 (Narayan, 2023).
This is research that I can use in my paper

Many of the artifacts appeared to beunwashed and they were not washed at the Center. Some artifacts were markedwith pen and ink directly on the artifact, some with a white paint-like substancefirst, others with a yellow china marker.
On top of poor storage of the artifacts, it is disappointing to know that they were directly damaged with markings and paint.

Challoner devoted much energy and time to revising the English Catholic Bible. He had long perceived a need to update the language of the Douay–Rheims Bible that had appeared over the years 1582–1610. Challoner did not set out to make a new translation; his aim was to remove antiquated words and expressions so that the Bible would be more readable and understandable by ordinary folk.[10] While still at the University of Douai, he had been one of the approving prelates for a revision of the Rheims New Testament published in 1730 by the college president, Robert Witham. After returning to England, he and Francis Blyth had published in 1738 another revision of Rheims in an attractive large folio edition.[11]

What is that sound high in the air Murmur of maternal lamentation Who are those hooded hordes swarming Over endless plains, stumbling in cracked earth
Between bones, dehydration, drowning, and infertility, TWL can be a rather depressing poem. But, as a reader–a delusional optimist at times–this section, in a grotesque way, seems to offer an interpretation of “waste land” as a space where great suffering can give rise to a new enlightenment. One can find this “optimism” at the intersection of Russian and Buddhist thought, a rejection of morality and societal structures, even at the most fundamental level, as continuous entities.
In his analysis of The Brothers Karamazov, Hesse writes that “when a culture, one of these attempts to domesticate man, gets tired and begins to decay…they become hysterical, develop strange lusts, become like young people in puberty or like women in child-birth.” By associating the loss of “culture” with a primal sense of “The Asiatic, the chaotic, the savage, the dangerous, the amoral,” Hesse states that even constructs that we typically assume as continuous across the spectrum of human civilization, pertaining to a innate desire to curb chaos and seek civility, are subject to erosion and reconstruction. Forces far more fundamental than those that we typically see as cultural–more conventional examples could include cuisine, language, traditions–are subject to the same cycle of “decay.” Initially, the notion that the constructs that keep us from brutally maiming each other are merely “cultural” seems deeply negative, not optimistic. Indeed, it must be conceded that this idea is most fear-inducing. But, turning to Hesse’s thoughts on the state that lies beyond the suffering of “decay,” although bitter, is perhaps more optimistic: “in that fearful, dangerous, painful stage, mankind must look again into its own soul, must see the beast arise in itself again, must again recognize the overlordship of the primeval forces in itself, forces which are super-moral.” So, this state of suffering is a necessary one. Since human memory is a frail thing and one cannot possible expect some overriding loyalty to morality to prevail through eons, there is likely to be a state where morality is cast aside, great suffering is endured–a return to the “primeval”–and humanity can forge a new understanding of “moral” living before donning the robes of a new “culture.”
Strikingly a similar message arises in the Buddhist Visuddhi-Magga where it is written that “it is on account of the concealment afforded by this adventitious adornment that people fail to recognize the essential repulsiveness of their bodies.” Let us consider a Buddhist’s ultimate aim of Nirvana: a state that, according to the SPICE Institute, requires the “elimination of all greed, hatred, and ignorance within a person.” But, if these immoral forces are covered by “adventitious adornment,”–or “culture” in the sense of Hesse–how can one possibly comprehend their existence? And if one cannot comprehend their failings, how can they eliminate them? Thus, paradoxically, there arises a necessity for suffering as a prerequisite for the attainment of a more enlightened state.
Given that Eliot’s note in reference to the “sound high in the air” offers a direct connection to Hesse, perhaps the state depicted of a “Murmur of maternal lamentation” and “hooded hordes swarming” is representative of the middle state where norms are being eschewed and a return to the primal is occurring. The lamentation of mothers, an expression of sadness that arises from among the purest forms of love, suggests that something has gone tragically wrong. The image conjured by the words “hooded hordes” swarming is a deeply primal and far from a more “cultur[ed” one such as perhaps an orderly procession on a city street. As an aside, another interpretation that strikes me here is that these lines directly refer to the actions of soldiers in wartime because “endless plains” and “cracked earth” are apt descriptors for the trenches and no man’s land that defined the battlefields of WWI while “hooded hordes” could be composed of helmeted soldiers. In either case, the present state is one of desolation. However, per rich Russian and Buddhist tradition, optimism–although of a rather unsavory variety–is not unreasonable.

Lost really has two disparate meanings. Losing things is about the familiar falling away, getting lost is about the unfamiliar appearing.
Losing things takes a lot out of someone, while getting lost helps you in life find what you need to do
-
The question then is how to get lost. Never to get lost is nor to live,
To me wanting to get lost is trying to fit in and trying to find yourself.

ertainly for artists of all stripes, the unknown, the idea or the form or the tale that has not yet arrived, is what must be found. {t is rhe job of artists to open doors and invite in prophesies, the unknown, the unfamiliar; its where their work comes from, although its arrival signals the beginning of the long disciplined process of making it their own.
It's the job of an author to find the story and to find what is interesting about the story.

question
ethics offer not sociological categorization outside what is considered "ethical" by the in group
-
provided it is regulatedhy some order and applied hy a staff.
means of coercion irrelevant- doesn't matter who is really enforcing- aka doesn't need to be the "state."
-
ubjective belief in thevalidity. of an order which constitutes the valid order itself.
order is valid from collective belief in order, not rationality of order
-
It is true, of course,that there is no causal relationship between the normative validity ofan order in the legal sense and any empirical process.
what the social order is does not just result from what is most reasonable to do or the most rational system
-
On the contrary, there is a gradual transition betweenthe two extremes', and also it is possible, as it has heen pointed out,for contradictory systems of order to exist at the same time. In thatcase each is "valid" precisely to the extent that there is a probabilitythat action will in fact be oriented to it
frequently not just one "valid" order and it's not "valid" or "invalid" there's a spectrum
-
hefact that the order is recognized as valid in his society is madeevident by the fact that he cannot violate it openly without punish-ment. But apart from this limiting case, it is very common forviolation of an order to be confined to more or less numerous partialdeviations from it, or for the attempt to be made, with varying degreesof good faith, to justify the deviation as legitimate
deviations from order are not always outright or direct contrasts to a rule
-
The transitionsbetween orientation to an order from motives of tradition or of ex-pediency to the case where a belief in its legitimacy is involved areempirically gradual.
Orientation towards maxims (some rationality or establish duty) --> maxims are traditional and habitual --> maxims are legitimate
-
attitude
most of the time maxims held bc it is habitual
-
which he fulfills partly because disobediencewould be disadvantageous to him but also because its violation wouldhe abhorrent to his sense of duty (of course, in varying degrees).
due what they're told because of the rules but also for their own sense of duty
-
this way there arise similarities, uni-formities, and continuities in their attitudes and actions which are oftenfar more stable than they would be if action were oriented to a systemof nonns and duties which were considered binding on the members ofa group
social norms for the sake of being social norms are not the binding agent of actors to their normal action- there is a practical, rational motive in there

In a variation of portfolios, veteran researchers Donna Wilson and Marcus Conyers suggest creating success files: students add examples of successful learning each day—from tasks completed to “assignments that support their personal definitions of success,” the two write. Periodically remind students to look through what they’ve gathered and “reconnect to their previous achievements.” Reflective questions like “where have I shown improvement?” or “what can I do now that I couldn’t do earlier in the year?” make growth even more apparent, writes educator Sarah Valter.
Implementing success files helps students recognize their achievements and growth over time. This reflection builds confidence and motivates them to continue improving.

When I am learning a new strategy or curricular resource, rehearsing also helps me build confidence. This can look like my rehearsing lines I will use or highlighting words and phrases in a lesson plan or jotting down a few key phrases on a sticky note.
Rehearsal is key; often I plan a lesson but do not spend enough time rehearsing it beforehand. When I dedicate equal time to rehearsing, my students grasp the material better, and I feel more confident and effective while teaching.
-
My preparation also includes asking what visual supports, like anchor charts, colored tiles, a document camera, etc., are needed to ensure that I’m making my thinking visible. When I say, “Watch me do this and then you will try,” I am making the strategy much more concrete. This increases engagement, and deeper growth is essential for students to build independence.
I like this because using visual supports makes learning clearer for all students. It helps engage diverse learners and encourages them to become more independent.

It has evolved into a pivotal driver of player retention and monetization
Making a good story for a game can lead to future games expanding upon this story (perhaps using the universe of the game).
-
Allowing players to make decisions that affect the story's outcome can lead to multiple endings
Being able to replay games to find separate endings helps to make the game enjoyable.
-
A critical challenge in game development is striking the right balance between a compelling narrative and enjoyable gameplay.
This in my opinion is the most important yet most overlooked thing in games. In other articles I've read, the developers hired by bigger game companies are told to more focus on gameplay rather than the story elements. This makes the story that they implement not entwine properly with the gameplay so it feels awkward to play.
-
Well-developed characters have their own arcs – they grow, learn, and change as the game progresses.
It's very difficult for a storytelling writer to properly develop each character within their own arcs all at once, hence why we don't see these kinds of games much.
-
Narrative-driven objectives
Sometimes when playing games that include objectives for the player to complete, the objectives start to feel like busy work/fetch quests. While some players love mindless activities in games, it isn't enjoyable for the average player to run back and forth without much engagement.
-
Relatable characters
The thing that storytelling writers struggle with is making relatable characters for their potential players.
-
A well-crafted story can turn a good game into an unforgettable experience, and a memorable experience is what players seek and cherish.
Many of the most memorable experiences I've had while playing games are ones with unique and compelling stories.

I just got a 1950 version of this KMG this week in medium rough shape too. (My 7th Royal and my 2nd Standard)
Looks like a Royal KMG with the Henry Dreyfuss glass tombstone keys in Gray Frieze paint. https://typewriterdatabase.com/Royal.KMG.72.bmys
Mine has some minor carriage issues that I'm hoping clear up with some cleaning. Otherwise it may need some tools and internal repair work and/or parts. If yours is generally working, a good cleaning and oiling should get you going: https://boffosocko.com/2024/08/09/on-colloquial-advice-for-degreasing-cleaning-and-oiling-manual-typewriters/

Manual of the prior model KMM which preceeded it, so the functionalilty should be almost exactly the same: https://site.xavier.edu/polt/typewriters/RoyalKMM.pdf (Royal Standard internals were almost exactly the same from the Ten (1909) through the FP/Empress (1966).)
Home Study Course in Typewriter Repair and Service: ca. 1959, published by the Typewriter Repair School in Little Falls, New Jersey. Focuses on the Royal KMM among others: https://site.xavier.edu/polt/typewriters/homestudycourse.pdf

Searching on YouTube for cleaning and repair advice should help out a lot. Phoenix Typewriter has some solid videos on related models (search also the Royal X (ten), KH, KHM, KMM, KMG, HH, FP, and Empress which are all roughly the same internals with slightly different body styles.)

I see no meaningful difference between the CSE-treated and untreated cells for MSS4-GFP. How are you determining this difference? Is there a quantification?

exhibited significant diffused cytosolic signals
There does not appear to be a methods section. How were the images taken? For example, was this a slice of a confocal z-stack such that signal in the middle of the cell really is in the cytosol or a wide field image such that the "cytosolic" signal may just be signal from accumulation of Ede1 at the cell surface (aka endocytosis is stuck at Ede1 recruitment step so a lot more enrichment is visible at the top and bottom of the cell). In other words have these images been taken in a way that can distinguish these possibilities?

MNPs accumulate within and affect the proper functioning of the placenta – the vital organ of pregnancy responsible for all maternal-fetal exchange
MNPs accumulate could affect the infant and the mother, how many microplastics could the child be exposed to?
-
Observations in both maternal mice and rats exposed to PS-NPs during gestation, ranging in size from 20 to 500nm, demonstrated the presence of these particles in fetal liver (96, 108, 109), heart (96, 109), brain (99, 108, 109), lung (108, 109), and kidney (109). Interestingly, a similar exposure using PE-MPs (10-45µm) resulted in MP accumulation exclusively in fetal kidneys (110). In humans, MNPs have been measured in fetal meconium (36, 46, 47) and amniotic fluid (102), and using an ex vivo human placenta perfusion model, a size dependent transfer of MNPs from the maternal to fetal circulation has been described (111, 112).
Observed in rats, MNPs are present in the off-spring of rats exposed to MNPs.
-
However, there remain considerable gaps in understanding that prevent a thorough assessment of whether current MNP exposures contribute to significant human infertility or disease.
The research isn't there to prove MNPs significantly contribute to infertility.
-
In rodent models, exposure to phthalates and BPA can induce alterations in DNA methylation patterns (70–73), histone modifications (73, 74), and non-coding RNA expression within the germline. These changes can disrupt normal epigenetic programming during critical windows of spermatogenesis, leading to impaired sperm development, reduced sperm quality, and compromised fertility
Phthalates and BPA were other chemicals I want to research.

distinct changes in reproductive hormone signalling are observed, with reductions in the circulating concentrations of estradiol (E2) and anti-mullerian hormone (AMH), and increased concentrations of LH, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and testosterone
Changes in reproductive hormones
-
MNPs have been found in a diverse range of biological samples, including blood (30, 31), urine (32), sputum (33), feces (34, 35), and breast milk (36, 37). Further, MNP accumulation has been identified in numerous organ systems including lung (38–43), colon and spleen (44)
MNPs are present in many parts of the body
-
MNPs can cross the physiological barriers of the lungs, gut, and skin
MNPs are small enough to cross barriers of the lungs, gut, and skin bypassing regulatory organs to process the chemicals
-
There is concern that chemicals contained within MNPs, or those absorbed to their surface, can be carried into the human body and released into various tissue beds (24). In this way, MNPs act as a vehicle for toxic exposure to a number of xenobiotics, which may bypass typical physiological defences such as drug-metabolizing enzymes in the gut and liver and induce direct effects to the cells/tissues surrounding the internalized MNPs (25).
MNPs can expose people to xenobiotics by bypassing the gut, liver, and effect surrounding cells.
-
However, polyethylene, polypropylene and polystyrene are the three most common occurring polymers (5), being found in a countless number of household and personal care products (9, 10), cosmetic products (11), toothpaste (10, 12, 13) and plastic food containers (14).
MNPs vary in chemicals, shapes, and are found in household, personal care, plastic food containers and cosmetic products.
-
Microplastics are omnipresent in our environment, being found in large quantities in oceans, rivers, ground water, sediments and soil environments, sewage, and even the air we breathe
MPs result from the breakdown of larger plastics. not only are MPs everywhere, they're resistant to biodegradation.
-
microplastic accumulation was observed in the human placenta, raising important questions related to the biological effects of these contaminants on the health of pregnancies and offspring

Martin has realized how strong, brave, and amazing his son is, all in a positive light. With Sebastian in danger, Martin has realized how much love he has for him, and wants to restore their relationship as a healthy and average father and son relationship. He wants his son to feel loved, and comes to the realization thatches disability does not define him.
-

Isabel realizes she had left her other son alone, and that he could have almost died. She realized she had so much attention on Sebastian that she didn't even think about the safety of her three year old. This is when her guilt kicks in.
-
Heneedsawand.Withoutawand,hewillnever,everfindthem
Kaden showed his innocence earlier in the story, but does even more in this instance. He believes a magic wand could fix what was happening to him, and that magic will protect him and his brother from unfortunate events.
-
No,hedoesn’twanthissontovanish.Hejustwantshimtobenormal.
Martin has a similar view to many people in society on disability. Unfortunately, people with disabilities dehumanize people with disabilities, and treat them as less than, just because they aren't fitting the stereotypes of a "normal person"
-
Ittookanhour,maybemore;yetthedaywasfarfromover,thesunstillwarmandhighoverheadwhensheheardherselfsay,inabrokenwhisper,Lookatyou,littleman.Lookatyoustandingup
Sebastian, almost fully by himself was able to stand and walk.He may have not done it in the traditional way, because as described he was shaking and appeared to be having a seizure in the process, but he was successful and Isabel could not have been happier.
-
butnow,intheoutdoors,heobservedeverythingwithwideeyesandsquawkedlikeatropicalbird
I feel as though doctors and parents never gave Sebastian a chance to experience an average life so far, they may have not let him do certain things because they may have thought he couldn't handle it. Although they are finally realizing he is thriving in the environments they thought were maybe too difficult for him to handle.
-
Jump,Kadenhadwhispered.Downthehall,they’dbeensaying,Goaway.Allofhim.Kadenopenedthebackdoor.Go,brother
Kaden noticed the horrible treatment towards his brother by his parents, and had good intentions in mind. He was such an innocent three year old, and didn't think anything of Sebastians disabilities because that was all he has ever known for Sebastian. He wanted his brother to be free and feel happiness, after noticing how their parents treated him.
-
Youjustwishhe’dgoaway,shesaidtooloudly.Untrue.Notjusthalfofhim.Allofhim
Sebastian was seen as a burden by Martin, and Martin did not want to "deal with" Sebastian and his disability for the rest of his life. He didn't want to congratulate any of Sebastians successes, because he just wished he would not be able to function and not be around.
-
Martinwalkedovertohimandplacedahandonhishead,andsaid,Wecan’tlethimdothis
It is supposed to be a good thing, Sebastian being able to walk. As an initial reaction, Martin realized that his son is "getting used to" functioning with his disabilities. Martin gives the impression throughout the story that he wants his son to be "normal", and not get used to living with his disabilities before its too late to perform surgeries.
-
Hethinks:mysonwalkedtoday.Anyotherparentwouldbefilledwithaclearandsimplehappiness.ForMartin,itisalltoomuch
in the end, Martin is really shocked and happy at the fact that his son can walk, and that he can perform some natural bodily functions, even with his disability.
-
Iwantedtoseemybrotherrun.Mybrotherisahorse.
Kaden, the three year old brother also describes his infant brother as a horse. Although, I believe this is in a more innocent way. Kaden doesn't understand societies view on disabled people at such a young age, so he has created his own majestic, powerful meaning of his brother being a horse. It wasn't about his looks to Kaden, it was about his personality.
-
Heintendstocallthepolice,reportamissingperson.!endecides,withequalimpulsiveness,againsttheidea.Whatkindofdescriptionwouldhegive?Howcanheexplainwhenhehimselfdoesnotunderstand?
I also find this line interesting. The fact that in the way of his sons safety, Martin wouldn't call the police to report that he is missing because he claims he cannot describe how his son looks. He seems to refuse to accept the fact that his son does not look like the average person, and almost seems embarrassed that he looks the way he does.
-
Shethinks:hecantakecareofhimself
This is shocking to me. No mother should think that their three year old child can take care of themselves in the dark, alone in the middle of the night. They are nowhere near the age and maturity of being able to take care of themselves for any amount of time.
-
Nowhecan’thearanythingbutcricketsmarchingcloserandcloserinthedark
The boy is terrified being alone in the dark and quiet, hence the line "he can't hear anything but crickets marching closer and closer in the dark". He fears for his safety and hints at the fact that he feels something bad may happen to him.
-
healwaysunderstandsthattheabandonmentisnotreallygoingtooccur.Yethereheisnow.Leftbehind
This reminds me of the description of a "glass child". A glass child is the sibling of someone who has mental or medical issues, and doesn't require the most attention from parents. The three year old brother was left behind and forgotten about once Sebastian ran away, and wasn't informed of the parents leaving him by himself in the middle of the night.
-
Sheisthinkingonlyofherbaby.Whereheis,howtoreachhim.Buteverythoughtofhimfeelssomehowlikeathoughtaboutherself
Going along with my previous idea of the mothers guilt, she seems to want to reassure herself that she is fine and her son is in danger and he is who the focus should be on. Although, in the back of her mind she still fears for herself.
-
Itseemsverywrongtoher,inthesemoments,tobefrightenedforherself.Butsheis
The mother feels very frightened in the woods in the middle of the night by herself. She feels this guilt of being nervous for herself because she can only imagine how her infant is feeling, who is not old enough to take care of himself.

In the circumstances in which theSauvages are, if we abandon them,they will unquestionably have the occasionto surrender to the english whoexpect that moment every day.
Here is another example that demonstrates how missionaries and conversion were tools of colonialism. The fear that if the missionaries are not with the Mi'kmaq the willsurender to the British confirms that although the missionaries may truly want to save souls and create true Christians the act of converting Indigenous peoples to Catholicism was still ultimately an imperial act.

This is another example of how missionaries had to adapt their teachings and practices to suit the Mi'kmaq way of life. More missionaries were necessary than in European settlements where societies were sedentary and revolved around the church. In European settlements people came to the church, but to serve Mi'kmaq communities missionaries had to travel to and with them and adapt their religious teachings and practices to suit the Mi'kmaq lifestyle.
-

This speaks to what we discussed in class that missionaries did operate as imperial agents. They saw Indigenous people as potential allies, particularly in a potential battle or war. They saw converting "all these sauvages" as a way to ensure Acadie. By converting them they thought that they could create allies for the French crown, strong enough allies to fight alongside them.

Given chronic problems with mould, mice, overcrowding and under-maintainedbuildings, most residents of Cayce Homes were in favour of the redevelopment.Yet, many were concerned with how the redevelopment would impact their fami-lies, and whether they in fact were the intended beneficiaries. One resident, MsAudrey mentions: ‘the plan they got is good. But is it for us? That’s the mainthing.’ Another resident adds: ‘Or is it just for them?” Observed during the courseof this study, a core group of six to eight Cayce United residents organized aroundthree primary goals related to the redevelopment: 1) no resident displacement,2) the creation of job opportunities and 3) the integration of needed social supports.As Cayce United worked to mobilize their neighbours, educate the community,shape the public narrative of the redevelopment and win resident goals, residentorganizers – and those who worked alongside them (myself included) – were oftenstymied by the same questions that challenge many scholars of neighbourhoodinequality. What will produce more equitable outcomes in urban communities?How can positive social change occur? Who can (and ought to) be involved intransforming urban neighbourhoods? These are theoretical questions, and theanswers vary based upon the theoretical perspectives used.

This article angers me far beyond what it should. It is supposed to be a call to action for society to stop treating introverts like they're inferior. As an introvert myself I feel belittled reading this. Like I'm the victim and that it is a negative trait to be an introvert. While it's supposed to be a positive trait according to the article (Oh look, I'm introverted and that makes me a GREAT leader). All it does is just list the author's problems with being an introvert, but all of what she did list is barely traits of being an introvert, it's traits of being a coward with no self-confidence and a victim complex. Being an introvert or an extrovert is neither good nor bad, it's just what it is.

Littler’s work shows in great detail how the narrative of ‘hard work’ and ‘making it’ I note above has become so present and alive in Global North societies (2) – and it’s by drawing this kind of sharp attention to the way such destructive narratives are mobilised, and who they work for, that we position ourselves to challenge and reject them.
The Tirukkuṟaḷ, a Tamil text from the "Global South" that is at least 1500 year old, contains "narratives of 'hard work'". The idea that this is somehow a Global North concept is woefully ignorant.

Connecting Linkbetween twoSentences orParagraphs,
Miles, 1905 uses an arrow symbol with a hash on it to indicate a "connecting link between two Sentences or Paragraphs, etc."
It's certainly an early example of what we would now consider a hyperlink. It actively uses a "pointer" in it's incarnation.
Are there earlier examples of these sorts of idea links in the historical record? Surely there were circles and arrows on a contiguous page, but what about links from one place to separate places (possibly using page numbers?) Indexing methods from 11/12C certainly acted as explicit sorts of pointers.

Eustace Miles suggests the use of "special marks on cards" (annotations) in the top left corners, though he doesn't provide specific examples of how they might be used in practice. He does mention "The Abbreviations and Marks need be clear only to the Writer [sic] himself. They save ever so much time."
- "X": As contrasted with—
- "Q": Quotation
- Black triangle in corner: important
- Arrow pointing to corner of card: As compared with
- Angled parallel lines in the bottom right corner of card: End of Paragraph (or Chapter).
- Arrow pointing to the corner of card with hash mark: Connecting Link between two Sentences or Paragraphs, etc.
- Upside down V (or caret): An omission, e.g. to be filled in afterwards
- ?: A doubtful point
-
Special Marks on Cards
In Miles' visual examples of cards, he presents them in portrait (rather than landscape) orientation.
This goes against the broad grain of most standard card index filing systems of the time, but may be more in line with the earlier French use of playing cards orientation.
His portrait orientation also matches with the size ratios seen in his Card-Tray suggestion on p187. https://hypothes.is/a/llEgpIf4Ee-dVfcaIGUryQ
