he English education does notencourage learners to think. They are generally told toreproduce the ideas of others, and, unless the questioncomes straight out of the Text-book, they often findthemselves quite unable to answer it.
This statement follows the broad thesis that imitation is far easier than innovation.

I often noticed that most Candidates inExaminations used to begin to write their Essays atonce. They never realised that their minds were there-by being distracted and divided among many differentprocesses, each of which is particularly hard even whentaken alone. For all at once their minds are being-called upon to Collect Ideas, to Select and decide whichare important, etc., to Arrange the Selected Ideas, andto Express them. To try all this as a single action is" most extraordinarily unscientific, even if a few brilliantgeniuses here and there have succeeded in the attempt.
One of the major affordances of using a zettelkasten or card index for writing is that it forces the writer to break things down into their constituent parts, thereby making the entire process of writing far easier and less complex. One can separately focus their attention on the smaller steps of collecting, selecting, and arranging the material before beginning to actually write.
-
For I do not think that the reason why so many peoplefail to write good Essays or to make good Speechesis so much that they are barren of Ideas, or that theirGrammar is bad, or even that their Expression is verybad ;
he capitalizes five words here to emphasize their importance... I wonder what he says in his section on capitalization???

I shall go upon the principleupon which the Romans went in their conquests, viz.' DIVIDE ET IMPERA ', ' Isolate what you have to master,and master it part by part'.
-
The lesson surely is that to emphasise, in this way, anIdea which is felt to be important, is not an automaticprocess to most people ; it is not done instinctively, andby the light of nature. They may feel that the Ideaought to be Emphasised, but they do not know themeans.
-
you will have to Collect and make a list ofyour Ideas (Headings and Sub- Headings) for the Essayor Speech. You will have to Select, deciding whichare to be used and which are not. You will have toArrange the selected Headings. And then you willhave to Express them — in itself not a simple task.

He must analysethe whole stroke, and must not attempt to do it asif it were a single unit. It is true that the bornplayer, by the light of genius, does the whole stroke asa whole stroke, and perhaps is not aware that it can feedivided into parts : he may even deny it. None theless it has often been proved that it can be divided intoparts, and that to master each part separately is a mucheasier .process than to -master the whole -at once. It is -notgoing too far to say that for average people to masterthe whole stroke at once is an absolute impossibility.

Memory is enhanced when con-cepts can be acted out by the learner
Another takeaway from this chapter that piqued my interest was the discussion about how dramatic play and acting can be a good way of integrating knowledge. It says "Memory is enhanced when concepts can be acted out by the learner" (Harlan, Rivkin 12). This was interesting to me because one of the questions I get the most about acting is "How do you memorize all of those lines?" I could never really put it into a concise or logical way as to how I can do it, but reading about how acting out concepts can enhance memory makes total sense! In my case, the concept that is being acted out is the character I am playing, including their lines, emotions, and physical movements.

One employee suggested that Adobe should come up with "a long-term communication and marketing plan outside of blog posts," and meet with the company's most prominent critics on YouTube and social media to "correct the misinformation head-on.""Watching the misinformation spread on social media like wildfire is really disheartening," this person wrote in Slack. "Still, a loud 'F Adobe' and 'Cancel Adobe' rhetoric is happening within the independent creator community that needs to be addressed."A third worker said the internal communication review process might be broken. "What are we doing meaningfully to prevent this or is this only acted on when called out?" the person wrote.

It's unclear how this information is accessed, and whether the creators of the data can opt out or get paid.

Adobe upset many artists and designers recently by implying it would use their content to train AI models. The company had to quell those concerns with a blog post denying this.But some Adobe employees are still not happy with the response, and they are calling for improved communication with customers.According to screenshots of an internal Slack channel, obtained by Business Insider, Adobe employees complained about the company's poor response to the controversy and demanded a better long-term communication plan. They pointed out that Adobe got embroiled in similar controversies in the past, adding the internal review process needed to be fixed. This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. Become an Insider and start reading now. Have an account? Log in. "If our goal is truly to prioritize our users' best interests (which, to be honest, I sometimes question), it's astonishing how poor our communication can be," one of the people wrote in Slack. "The general perception is: Adobe is an evil company that will do whatever it takes to F its users.""Let's avoid becoming like IBM, which seems to be surviving primarily due to its entrenched market position and legacy systems," this Adobe employee added.

"It's a lot of pressure for them. It's the one thing my husband and I don't like about this school. Academically, you have to [work hard] to get into top schools, unfortunately, [but] they're taking the fun out of it."
I like this quote because it tells people the drawback of having a school with lots of opportunities. kids don't have time to be kids and that's something that they can't get back. they work hard to compete against one another, striving to be better than on another that they forget to be themselves and do the things that they want to do. In another class that i was in, we talked about how competition has a certain limit and eventually everyone will be trying to reach goals that are impossible for someone to achieve. If every kid have these good grades and extracurricular activities, the disparity between people from these students and everyone else competing for top school admission will continue to grow.

Legally, police officers can’t strike. But they can “work-to-rule,” doing only the most necessary duties.
Yet we see this all the times, police officers taking course of their own actions and doing what they want. We saw this in the Geroge Floyd incident which officers took serious aggression without any harmful intent from Mr. Floyd. I think after that incident however, officers were more tamed given they recognized the amount of blacklashing the officers in the incident got.

This valuable study investigates both online responses to, and offline replay of, visual motion sequences. Sophisticated EEG analyses provide solid evidence for both feature-specific and non-specific sequence representations, though the explanation of the statistical methods used is currently incomplete.
-
Reviewer #1 (Public review):
Summary:
The study identifies two types of activation: one that is cue-triggered and non-specific to motion directions, and another that is specific to the exposed motion directions but occurs in a reversed manner. The finding that activity in the medial temporal lobe (MTL) preceded that in the visual cortex suggests that the visual cortex may serve as a platform for the manifestation of replay events, which potentially enhance visual sequence learning.
Strengths:
Identifying the two types of activation after exposure to a sequence of motion directions is very interesting. The experimental design, procedures, and analyses are solid. The findings are interesting and novel.
Weaknesses:
It was not immediately clear to me why the second type of activation was suggested to occur spontaneously. The procedural differences in the analyses that distinguished between the two types of activation need to be a little better clarified.
-
Reviewer #2 (Public review):
This paper shows and analyzes an interesting phenomenon. It shows that when people are exposed to sequences of moving dots (that is moving dots in one direction, followed by another direction, etc.), showing either the starting movement direction or ending movement direction causes a coarse-grained brain response that is similar to that elicited by the complete sequence of 4 directions. However, they show by decoding the sensor responses that this brain activity actually does not carry information about the actual sequence and the motion directions, at least not on the time scale of the initial sequence. They also show a reverse reply on a highly compressed time scale, which is elicited during the period of elevated activity, and activated by the first and last elements of the sequence, but not others. Additionally, these replays seem to occur during periods of cortical ripples, similar to what is found in animal studies.
These results are intriguing. They are based on MEG recordings in humans, and finding such replays in humans is novel. Also, this is based on what seems to be sophisticated statistical analysis. However, this is the main problem with this paper. The statistical analysis is not explained well at all, and therefore its validity is hard to evaluate. I am not at all saying it is incorrect; what I am saying is that given how it is explained, it cannot be evaluated.

This important study advances our understanding of the role of dopamine in modulating pair bonding in mandarin voles by examining dopamine signaling within the nucleus accumbens across various social stimuli using state-of-the-art causal perturbations. The evidence supporting the findings is compelling, particularly cutting-edge approaches for measuring dopamine release as well as the activity of dopamine receptor populations during social bonding. However, statistical analyses were found to lack rigor and clarity, and the lack of complementary experiments in females was noted as a weakness. Additionally, the manuscript would be strengthened by placing findings within a broader framework, such as by highlighting similarities and/or differences between mandarin and prairie voles.
-
Reviewer #1 (Public review):
These experiments are some of the first to assess the role of dopamine release and the activity of D1 and D2 MSNs in pair bond formation in Mandarin voles. This is a novel and comprehensive study that presents exciting data about how the dopamine system is involved in pair bonding. The authors provide very detailed methods and clearly presented results. Here they show dopamine release in the NAc shell is enhanced when male voles encounter their pair bonded partner 7 days after co-habitation. In addition, D2 MSN activity decreases whereas D1 MSN activity increases when sniffing the pair-bonded partner.
The authors do not provide justification for why they only use males in the current study, without discussing sex as a biological variable these data can only inform readers about one sex (which in pair-bonded animals by definition have 2 sexes). In addition, the authors do not use an isosbestic control wavelength in photometry experiments, although they do use EGFP control mice which show no effects of these interventions, a within-subject control such as an isosbestic excitation wavelength could give more confidence in these data and rule out motion artefacts within subjects.
There is an existing literature (cited in this manuscript) from Aragona et al., (particularly Aragona et al., 2006) which has highlighted key differences in the roles of rostral versus caudal NAc shell dopamine in pair bond formation and maintenance. Specifically, they report that dopamine transmission promoting pair bonding only occurs in the rostral shell and not the caudal shell or core regions. Given that the authors have targeted more caudally a discussion of how these results fit with previous work and why there may be differences in these areas is warranted.
The authors could discuss the differences between pair bond formation and pair bond maintenance more deeply.
The authors have successfully characterised the involvement of dopamine release, changes in D1 and D2 MSNs, and projections to the VP in pair bonding voles. Their conclusions are supported by their data and they make a number of very reasonable discussion points acknowledging various limitations.
-
Reviewer #2 (Public review):
Summary:
Using in vivo fiber-photometry the authors first establish that DA release when contacting their partner mouse increases with days of cohabitation while this increase is not observed when contacting a stranger mouse. Similar effects are found in D1-MSNs and D2-MSNs with the D1-MSN responses increasing and D2-MSN responses decreasing with days of cohabitation. They then use slice physiology to identify underlying plasticity/adaptation mechanisms that could contribute to the changes in D1/D2-MSN responses. Last, to address causality the authors use chemogenetic tools to selectively inhibit or activate NAc shell D1 or D2 neurons that project to the ventral pallidum. They found that D2 inhibition facilitates bond formation while D2 excitation inhibits bond formation. In contrast, both D1-MSN activation and inhibition inhibit bond formation.
Strengths:
The strength of the manuscript lies in combining in vivo physiology to demonstrate circuit engagement and chemogenetic manipulation studies to address circuit involvement in pair bond formation in a monogamous vole.
Weaknesses:
Weaknesses include that a large set of experiments within the manuscript are dependent on using short promoters for D1 and D2 receptors in viral vectors. As the authors acknowledge this approach can lead to ectopic expression and the presented immunohistochemistry supports this notion. It seems to me that the presented quantification underestimates the degree of ectopic expression that is observed by eye when looking at the presented immunohistochemistry. However, given that Cre transgenic animals are not available for Microtus mandarinus and given the distinct physiological and behavioral outcomes when imaging and manipulating both viral-targeted populations this concern is minor.
The slice physiology experiments provide some interesting outcomes but it is unclear how they can be linked to the in vivo physiological outcomes and some of the outcomes don't match intuitively (e.g. cohabitation enhances excitatory/inhibitory balance in D2-MSNs but the degree of contact-induced inhibition is enhanced in D2-MSN).
One interesting finding is that the relationship between D2-MSN and pair bond formation is quite clear (inhibition facilitates while excitation inhibits pair bond formation). In contrast, the role of D1-MSNs is more complicated since both excitation and inhibition disrupt pair bond formation. This is not convincingly discussed.
It seemed a missed opportunity that physiological readout is limited to males. I understand though that adding females may be beyond the scope of this manuscript.
-
Reviewer #3 (Public review):
Summary:
The manuscript is evaluating changes in dopamine signaling in the nucleus accumbens following pair bonding and exposure to various stimuli in mandarin voles. In addition, the authors present chemogenetic data that demonstrate excitation and inhibition of D1 and D2 MSN affect pair bond formation.
Strengths:
The experimental designs are strong. The approaches are innovative and use cutting-edge methods. The manuscript is well written.
Weaknesses:
The statistical results are not presented, and not all statistical analyses are appropriate. Additionally, some details of methods are absent.

An interesting point that was made was the fact that the developers have to put constraints on the data and the fields that can be used. They do this to fit their specific target audience, but it is also interesting that people who do not fit these data constraints must find ways to make themselves fit in in order to use social media apps. Developers should prioritize inclusiveness more.

Question #1. Where is the location of the study and why do you think there are complex human dimension of wildlife conflicts higher than other locations in North America? - As we read the article we can learn that the location of the study is in a 23,700km^2 area of southwestern Alberta and was bounded by the HighWood River to the north, British Columbia to the west, and Montana to the South. In my opinion, I think that there are complex human dimensions of wildlife conflict higher here than in other locations in North America due to a over population that lack of protective barriers between humans and wildlife areas and the increase in urban zones or cities. What do you think could be a good solving solution to this problem between wildlife and humans?

Personal Question: How would this data change if we compared these species in a more remote ares with less human involvement vs an area that is frequently populated with people such as the Lake Tahoe area?
-
Similar to the patterns found by our occurrence record review,crops, food waste, and livestock carcasses feature prominently inthe diet of ursids across the globe; killing of livestock occurs lessfrequently (Newsome et al. 2015). Both black bears and grizzlybears preferentially select mixed diets (Erlenbach et al. 2014,Coogan and Raubenheimer 2016, Costello et al. 2016). Forexample, in a recent study in Wyoming bears consumed 1–20different foods per day, with an average of 7.3 (Costello et al.2016). Black bear use of human-settled areas and associated foodsources often increases when natural foods are scarce (Howe etal. 2010, Baruch-Mordo et al. 2014, Lewis et al. 2014). Althoughnot monitored, a poor berry year and decreased natural foods in2014 could explain some of the observed 2014 increase in blackbear incidents. In our study, black bear incidents werepredominately attributable to attractants including garbage,birdfeeders, and vegetation.
Question 2:
According to this paper, bears and wolves have very different diets. Bears are considered omnivores and will eat both vegetation and meat depending on the season and what is available. They also feed on food that has been set out by humans such as bird feed and garbage. Wolves on the other hand are strictly carnivorous and do not feed on vegetation.

The desire for the salvation of these newconverts inflamed him, or better intoxicated him so that last year he did the impossible tocome back to them; he took to the sea, but instead of landing on their beaches, he wasthrown on foreign lands and was finally obliged to return to France.
This demonstrates the concept that we discussed in class that these missionaries thought of them selves as being sent by god to save the "savages". They genuinely thought that converting to Catholicism was the best thing that could be done for Indigenous peoples. This particular passage demonstrates the extremes that missionaries were willing to endure in order to achieve this goal.

He spoke the foreign language of the Abenakis of this territory, and by his great virtue, byhis religious conversations, he prepared many infidels for the faith; he even converted manyof them by teaching them the articles of our faith in a simple but effective way.The previous year, in 1654, the second of the two missionaries, the most venerable FatherBalthazar of Paris had already returned to France. This father speaks the language of thenatives of the region where he lived, as well as the French language, and with the help ofGod, he converted more Abenakis than all the other missionaries.
De Paris references two other missionaries who had great success in converting many Indigenous people and highlights a key feature of both of these men; the fact that they could converse with the Indigenous peoples that they worked with. Having learned the language likely facilitated their abilities to gain trust and form relationships with these communities which likely enabled them to convert more people.

To calculate the sugar content for the cranberry juice and the root beer, first calculatethe average density of the celebration standard, 2% sugar. This is found by first subtracting thefinal mass of both the beaker and the liquid by the initial mass of just the beaker to find theliquid's mass of the 2% sugar. Then using the density equation d=m/v where d= density, v=volume and m=mass. Use the mass found by subtracting the final and initial and divide it bythe constant 10 mL of 2% sugar. Then repeat this for each trial, it was repeated 2 more times fora total of 3 more times. Using the 3 density’s find the average by adding all the desitys of 2%sugar and dividing it by 3. These calculations where completed for both the cranberry juice andthe root beer. After calculating each of those using the calibration standard averages of theclass for the sugar % create a plot graph and a trend line (Graph 1). Using the trend lineequation where x represents the % sugar content and y represents the density in g/mL,substitute the average density of both cranberry juice and the root beer into the y of the trendline equation. Then solve for x, the % sugar content.
Past tense, equation needs proper format and check grammar.

To begin use a 125 mL Erlenmeyer flask and fill it with about 50 mL of 2% sugar liquid.Measure a 50 mL beaker by using a balance, record value. Then using that 50 mL beaker and a10 mL volumetric pipette plus pipette filler, fill the 10 mL volumetric pipette and filler to 10.00 mLof 2% sugar. Put the liquid in the volumetric pipette into the 50mL beaker that was previouslymeasured. Next measure and record the mass of the beaker using the balance. This processwas repeated 2 more times for a total of 3 trials Then using a cranberry juice using the samesteps and doing a total of 3 trials. Once more do the same steps using root beer for a total of 3trials.
Needs to be in past tense. Also use actual equation set up.

Next measure and record the mass of the beaker using the balance. This processwas repeated 2 more times for a total of 3
It goes from steps back to past tense. It doesn't entirely make sense given that this should all be in past tense and not in a step by step format like how this sentence describes. The first sentence is in present tense to begin with, instead it should be "The mass of the beaker was then recorded using a balance."
-
Using a balance, place weigh paper on it and zero the scale. Using that measure a metalrod and record measurement. Then take a 25 mL graduated cylinder and fill about half withwater then record the exact volume. In the graduated cylinder add the metal rod, record the newvolume.

After five years of unrequited toil, and unspeakable hardship in convict camps, - five years of slaving by the side of human brutes, and of nightly herding with them in vermin-haunted huts, - Ben Davis had become like them.
The author is trying to convey the harsh reality of what injustice does to a person, and he is criticizing how many of his time do not see this suffering or choose to ignore it.

There was a moment of breathless silence. Then a wild burst of grief from the prisoner's wife, to which his two children, not understanding it all, but vaguely conscious of some calamity, added their voices in two long, discordant wails, which would have been ludicrous had they not been heart-rending.
This quote conveys realism by showing the range of human emotions such a verdict would cause.
-
He had no doubt of the prisoner's guilt. There had been a great deal of petty thieving in the county, and several gentlemen had suggested to him the necessity for greater severity in punishing it. The jury were all white men.

In how we’ve been talking about accessible design, the way we’ve been phrasing things has implied a separation between designers who make things, and the disabled people who things are made for. And unfortunately, as researcher Dr. Cynthia Bennett points out, disabled people are often excluded from designing for themselves, or even when they do participate in the design, they aren’t considered to be the “real designers.” You can see Dr. Bennet’s research talk on this in the following Youtube Video:
It's paradoxical how people with disabilities are barred from designing systems that are meant to support them. The stigma of people with disabilities as people who are lesser than, or less capable of designing is an outdated notion. Designing for the disabled population from a purely able bodied perspective is a myopic view of the issue, and is bound to overlook issues.

while avoiding perverse incentives
I don't understand quite yet how perverse incentives are avoided. All the author mentions is that tasks can be "tracked, weighted and exposed", but how, and will that be enough? What's the incentive to track other tasks? Aren't we already all too busy with our own tasks anyways? It depends a lot on how those tasks are actually created, who will have input and control etc...

What incentives do social media companies have to protect privacy?
I think there are a handful of incentives that social media companies have to protect privacy. If a company offers good privacy to its users, they will respect the company more and are more likely to use it. Also if the company protects privacy there is less chance of them having to pay fines for violating people's privacy.
-
What are your biggest concerns around privacy on social media?
My biggest concern regarding privacy on social media and the internet in general is when people's actions shift from offline to online. This is when people's actions on the internet and in real life get muddied and it becomes really dangerous and difficult to prosecute.

Datasets can be poisoned unintentionally. For example, many scientists posted online surveys that people can get paid to take. Getting useful results depended on a wide range of people taking them. But when one TikToker’s video about taking them went viral, the surveys got filled out with mostly one narrow demographic, preventing many of the datasets from being used as intended.
Ensuring the integrity of datasets is vital to ensure their applications are useful. An issue presented in this case where the population taking such surveys overrepresents a certain consumer segment means that the output of any model that uses such survey data wouldn't be representative of the wider population.

Social media sites then make their money by selling targeted advertising, meaning selling ads to specific groups of people with specific interests. So, for example, if you are selling spider stuffed animal toys, most people might not be interested, but if you could find the people who want those toys and only show your ads to them, your advertising campaign might be successful, and those users might be happy to find out about your stuffed animal toys. But targeting advertising can be used in less ethical ways, such as targeting gambling ads at children, or at users who are addicted to gambling, or the 2016 Trump campaign ‘target[ing] 3.5m black Americans to deter them from voting’ { requestKernel: true, binderOptions: { repo: "binder-examples/jupyter-stacks-datascience", ref: "master", }, codeMirrorConfig: { theme: "abcdef", mode: "python" }, kernelOptions: { kernelName: "python3", path: "./ch08_data_mining" }, predefinedOutput: true } kernelName = 'python3'
Social media sites are financially incentivized to collect our data to sell to advertised. However, this has some unintended consequences such as targeting gambling ads towards children and perpetuating addictions. Consumer rights regarding data is paramount to ensure such practices are used ethically.

In the Black Lives Matters protests of 2020, Dallas Police made an app where they asked people to upload videos of protesters doing anything illegal. In support of the protesters, K-pop fans swarmed the app and uploaded as many K-pop videos as they could eventually leading to the app crashing and becoming unusable, and thus protecting the protesters from this attempt at Police surveillance.
First of all this is hilarious. However, this does veer near vigilantism which raises some ethical questions. At what point should individuals/unregulated groups take justice into their own hands. The issue arises in who gets to define what justice is and is not.

Inauthentic interaction can even be valuable. We might outright lie to someone to cover our tracks when planning them a surprise party. Once the surprise is revealed, the inauthentic interactions can be retrospectively reinterpreted, and offense is not taken.
The idea that inauthentic interaction is still valuable is an interesting concept. The entire concept of acting and theater is predicated on the paradoxical concept of authentic inauthenticity. The basis of a medium of artistic expression is the imitation of authenticity, yet it is this basis that allows them to connect authentically with the audience.

Stores and homes were looted and set on fire. When Tulsa firefighters arrived, they were turned away by white vigilantes. A number of eyewitness accounts described private aircraft being used to shoot into black crowds and drop turpentine firebombs onto black-owned buildings, suggesting the well-organized attack might have been planned in advance.
The racism and hate were so extreme that many deaths and many lives lost. The suggestion that this was an organized attack just go to show how much hate they had.

Women gained increased opportunities to work outside the home. The number of professional women rose significantly in the 1920s. But limits still existed,
Equality was in the grasp but still the was the impression that women are only useful in the home.
-
It was the decade of the “New Woman,” in which only 10 percent of married women (but nearly half of unmarried women) worked outside the home. It was a decade in which new technologies decreased time requirements for household chores, and one in which standards of cleanliness and order in the home rose to often impossible standards.
This decade allowed for women to do more things instead of just housework. Equality seemed more and more attainable in this decade as women had more opportunities just as the men.

The 1920s also witnessed the maturation of professional sports. Play-by-play radio broadcasts of collegiate and professional sporting events marked a new era for sports, despite the racial segregation in most.

natural
I know this is contentious territory in this group, but the relationship between "natural" and "ethical" is complicated. There are many things that are natural but unethical. The real question is: what are the criteria that we might use to judge natural things as being ethical or unethical? Singer seems to have some.
-
A levelized morality that is rational, global, and actively meliorist fits almost perfectly with this new-age liberalism. This levelized morality can be calculated and outsourced just the same as a manufacturing job. If, for example, it’s more efficient to make an air conditioner in Mexico than in Ohio, then you gut the town in Ohio and ship the parts from Mexico. With EA’s levelized morality, if your money is most effective fighting malaria in Africa, then you stop caring about your neighbors and outsource your moral caring there.
I see the comparison here, and think that there is merit to it. The "outsourcing" point is particularly strong--i.e. it is tempting to outsource moral actions to simplified optimization functions, which entice us to jump to conclusions about what is good. The question, though, is whether or not Singer encourages this. That is a tougher case. My sense is that Singer would NOT explicitly endorse that kind of behavior, even if he DOES implicitly endorse it, as a way to nudge people to become "more moral than they might otherwise be" according to his tastes.
-
All humans lean on moral frameworks to make daily decisions, structure their lives, decide what to do with their time, and determine how to act in the world, including elites.
Important point. People, especially those who are not philosophers, outsource their moral decision-making and opinion-forming to their "cave" of opinion, and moral habits formed therein.
-
What I want to convince you of is that the values of neoliberalism don’t just dictate our economic lives but also influence our moral and spiritual lives, and that neoliberalism does so by asserting values that directly conflict with what it is to be human. Fortunately, there is a convenient way to investigate this influence. Gray’s list (“individualist, egalitarian, universalist, and meliorist”), is essentially the philosophy of Peter Singer.
Calling this out as the thrust of the piece. Is Rudy able to defend this point? (FWIW seems like it's still an interesting argument, even if the neolib/lib distinction is not make perfectly clear.)

There were times when it generated “hallucinations”—that is, it would suggest standards that didn’t make sense or align with the lesson. The key to avoiding these pitfalls was to treat AI as part of a human-centered workflow. AI is great for doing the heavy lifting, but I’ve learned that it’s not meant to produce a final deliverable on its own.
AI drawbacks and issues

Instead of using the basic chat function, I trained a custom GPT (generative pre-trained transformer) for CEFR standards alignment. I started by uploading a PDF of the CEFR standards, including the rubric specifically designed for teaching world languages.
AI use described
-
My team had initially developed our curriculum to align with the ACTFL standards, which are widely used in the United States for world language education, but we decided to show how our curriculum also meets the CEFR standards. It felt like a daunting task. That’s where AI turned what could have been a tedious process into something far more manageable—and teachers can do the same thing with their lessons.

a dominant belief that “native English = standardEnglish = international intelligibility” (also reigning in the Anglophonecampus examined in Beirut), where students are required to conform toand reproduce putatively fixed and standardized native English speaker(NES)10 norms and criteria of correctness in their academic studies,continues to hold sway (Jenkins 2014, 122)
This is a predominate view of language even in anglophone Africa. I can confidently speak at least to my experience as a Ghanaian. Up until university, I was taught to aspire to a native-like (standard English) proficiency in speaking and writing which also equates to white-English. As an English major and a sociolinguist, I learned to deconstruct that notion. My class room experiences helped me challenge that supposed ideal of reaching 'native English' = 'Standard English'.

Three sentences on what I just read,
I believe that BAP is aware of his place in history just like I assume Yuval does. Both authors are not writing as bots recording facts but provide a specialized idological prism to see our current civilization through. Each prisim has its own take, Yuval trying to articulate what the Silicon Valley "Open Conspiracy" types dream of. BAP trying to remind us what it was like to actually be part of history.
The "Why don't CEO's have Harrem's" is the one thing here that is going to stick with me. The women of today are so different from the past. In fact maybe the "Brave New World" reality of nameless sex with strangers and nude play as children is a more desireable world to the Incel, video game, monster can drinking of today.
It seems like the Puritan/Christian sexual practices have really shaped the west into becoming what it is today. I believe most men get their sense of identity from the type of sex they have access to. What's weird about modernity is that we are talking about sex rahter than women with the inherent consideration of children.
This population collapse, as articulated on the Georga Guide Stones, is going to be interesting.

Looking up a topic up on the internet, getting ideas, and writing about it is very different from copying sections from an article without attribution. Similarly, direct copying from content produced by generative AI tools requires disclosure, but using that content for ideation does not. Consider also the need for accountability. Blindly trusting in generative AI output is unwise and often unethical. AI output cannot be cited because it is not referenceable. Validating AI output by consulting reliable sources to arrive at a sound conclusion is surely reasonable.
Sounds like we should be teaching people to skip the middleman (middle bot?) and just go to the “reliable sources,” then, huh?

One of the early ways of social communication across the internet was with Email, which originated in the 1960s and 1970s. These allowed people to send messages to each other, and look up if any new messages had been sent to them.
It's also interesting to know that the first ever version of the internet was just a connection of multiple computers at first and then evolved into this network where users could only read, to now doing so many stuff with it.

Come lovely and soothing death, Undulate round the world, serenely arriving, arriving, In the day, in the night, to all, to each, Sooner or later delicate death. Prais’d be the fathomless universe, For life and joy, and for objects and knowledge curious, And for love, sweet love—but praise! praise! praise! For the sure-enwinding arms of cool-enfolding death. Dark mother always gliding near with soft feet, Have none chanted for thee a chant of fullest welcome? Then I chant it for thee, I glorify thee above all, I bring thee a song that when thou must indeed come, come unfalteringly. Approach strong deliveress, When it is so, when thou hast taken them I joyously sing the dead, Lost in the loving floating ocean of thee, Laved in the flood of thy bliss O death. From me to thee glad serenades, Dances for thee I propose saluting thee, adornments and feastings for thee, And the sights of the open landscape and the high-spread sky are fitting, And life and the fields, and the huge and thoughtful night. The night in silence under many a star, The ocean shore and the husky whispering wave whose voice I know, And the soul turning to thee O vast and well-veil’d death, And the body gratefully nestling close to thee. Over the tree-tops I float thee a song, Over the rising and sinking waves, over the myriad fields and the prairies wide, Over the dense-pack’d cities all and the teeming wharves and ways, I float this carol with joy, with joy to thee O death.
In the seven consecutive unrhymed four-line stanzas, Whitman provides the song's lyrics. An apostrophe directly addresses the celebration of death in these stanzas. Whitman wishes for death to arrive since he believes it will eventually come to everyone, day or night, and he sees it as a peaceful incident. He praises the universe and love in the second of these stanzas, but he also hails death, as if it were an equal partner in love. He addresses death as a mother and welcomes her in the song's third verse. The fifth verse claims that Whitman will sing with the dead when their time comes since death is an ocean of love and happiness, using the bird's song as a metaphor. This subject is carried over into the last three stanzas of the bird's song. Death, for body and soul alike, is welcome wherever it occurs. The song in favor of death is spread throughout the nation, over cities, fields, and prairies, as the final verse makes clear. It is a song of joy even if it is a song of death.

Comrades mine and I in the midst, and their memory ever to keep, for the dead I loved so well, For the sweetest, wisest soul of all my days and lands—and this for his dear sake, Lilac and star and bird twined with the chant of my soul,
Whitman leaves behind his vision of the battlefield, the lilac plant blooming in the dooryard, the sight of the evening star, and the song of the bird and the song it inspired in him. But for the sake of the deceased guy he loved, he will always remember them all.

Sadly sinking and fainting, as warning and warning, and yet again bursting with joy,
Leaves all of these memories behind with joy

But I saw they were not as was thought, They themselves were fully at rest, they suffer’d not, The living remain’d and suffer’d, the mother suffer’d, And the wife and the child and the musing comrade suffer’d, And the armies that remain’d suffer’d.
Though he sees countless skeletons and bodies, he understands that these troops are now at peace and are no longer in pain. The living are the ones who suffer—the surviving soldiers, the surviving loved ones of the deceased, and the legions of survivors.

I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I love, If you want me again look for me under your boot-soles.
death? Decomposing in the earth? Reminds me of Wendell Berry's poems about dying and nature

My lovers suffocate me, Crowding my lips, thick in the pores of my skin, Jostling me through streets and public halls, coming naked to me at night, Crying by day Ahoy! from the rocks of the river, swinging and chirping over my head, Calling my name from flower-beds, vines, tangled underbrush, Lighting on every moment of my life, Bussing my body with soft balsamic busses, Noiselessly passing handfuls out of their hearts and giving them to be mine.

Making a fetich of the first rock or stump, powowing with sticks in the circle of obis, Helping the llama or brahmin as he trims the lamps of the idols, Dancing yet through the streets in a phallic procession,
not sure what's going on here...

I am one of the citizens,
I feel like he's a little more than a citizen at this point

I am he bringing help for the sick as they pant on their backs, And for strong upright men I bring yet more needed help.

I found it really interesting how updates and information was shared before the rise of the internet. Particularly the grafiti updates. I think that it was a creative way to share information to a large amount of people.

This part of the reaiding racial disparities in housing opportunities in the mid-20th century. White Americans had the privilege of choosing where to live. At the same time, Black Americans were restricted by racial covenants—legal agreements that prevented the sale of property to non-white buyers—and racist realtors, limiting their housing options to industrial suburbs like Ferguson, located on the north side of the city.

This text talked about the issues of housing, education, and municipal financing are interconnected and that the systemic failures that led to Michael Brown’s death began long before his interaction with the police, including the inequities in his schooling and environment.

As one of its first advertisements proclaimed in 1970, Irvine was designed to be a park-like space with white-collar industries. A pigtailed young girl is pictured standing in front of impressive modernist architecture,above these lines of less refined yet fascinating poetry: “If I could wish a place to live, / I’d wish it putsomewhere / where grass is green and flowers give / a wonder to the air. // If I could wish my daddy’s work, /I’d wish it neat and clean; / and not where smog and uglies lurk / but more like parks I’ve seen.” Thephrase “not where smog and uglies lurk” hints that other suburbs might have factories or factory workers. It isa subtle acknowledgment of spaces like Ferguson.
The phrase “not where smog and uglies lurk” suggests that other suburban areas, such as Ferguson, might be associated with factories, blue-collar work, and environmental degradation, further implying that Irvine represents a more desirable, elite alternative. The language reflects the socio-economic and racial divides that often separated white-collar, planned communities from more industrialized, working-class ones.

I found it interesting that as the popularity of social media grew the urge to create a version of social media that had no restrictions grew as-well. I think this led tot he creation of 4Chan and Something Awful. This goes to show how Social Media can turn morally unethical really quickly.

8Chan is also the source and home of the false conspiracy theory QAnon
I watched a documentary specifically on the QAnon conspiracy, and the documentary shifts focus early on to focusing on 8chan. It's very unnerving watching how these people use their own platform and QAnon to make the most profit, regardless of the societal harm they are causing. It is partially for this reason the documentary accuses the founders/admins of 8chan to, if not QAnon themselves, be working in collaboration with them.
