It makes it almost impossible for anyone to predict the outcome of the Generative AI creation and it adds layers of complexity to the creation by itself. Once the outcome is received at the users' end the AI receives feedback on its creation, this helps the AI in decision making and it learns from the mistake made in the past.3
Because of the random nature of AI content generation, it can theoretically create anything and often needs guiding to avoid truly random creation.
The platform does not create in a human sense with the final goal in mind. Hence, the whole gamut of creation would also differ because of the prompt given by the user.
AI doesn't truly understand art.
quite like the training undertaken by a musical aspirant, every creator creates only upon the existing knowledge that they possess in the art form, the knowledge acts as the fodder that enabled the creator, bereft of the knowledge, the creator would not be equipped to create. Even phenomenal music composers like Mozart and Beethoven were trained in music before they began to create music. No creation springs from a vacuum or without existing knowledge.
Where is the line drawn between inspiration and theft?
If the AI is trained on fewer materials, it would hamper the quality of the output and at the same time, it may enhance the chance of copyright infringement.
Are less popular genres prone to this?
With the patterns that it has found, it creates a work based on the input it received from the user, who may ask for a particular style or genre of music. To find a pattern and produce a creative output that matched with the input the AI must be trained on thousands, millions or even billions of data.28 Massive amount of these audio files is freely available on various platforms such as YouTube, Spotify and i tunes.29 SUNO AI is trained on all these materials from the internet and the audio files are perceived by it as data.
Do these patterns based on copyrighted data plagiarize existing music?
It could be both copyrighted and non-copyrighted content, these contents are then stored in a numerical form which is then processed by a computer which is later used for training the platform.21
Does it not differentiate between non-copyrighted and copyrighted content?
Supervised learning is limited to selecting the exact data on which the model would be trained on with a clear goal of creation, unsupervised learning is when the model is trained on material and is expected to find a pattern and involve in creation, the reinforcement learning is akin to a trial and error where the platform is given specific feedback.
Which type is Suno trained on?
It could be in the form of invention of the micro phone device, the invention of music sampling, tune generator for composer17 or even the algorithmic sequencing of the playlist of the listener18 is also a form of AI. However, Generative AI is something different from the past as earlier AI aided the user in creativity, and merely acted as a staff, today the system has become an independent creator by itself, it is no longer a mere tool.
AI has been disguised into many everyday tools, reducing awareness around how long its actually been a thing.
it has also managed huge influx of funding for the AI creation.14
I guess this would be considered a main draw of AI, what generates profit.
It is pertinent to bear in mind that these platforms ‘train’ their Generative AI only to create future works, they do not replicate the works as such.12
This could be argued, but I'd like to find evidence that these AI machines actually do replicate things they have been trained on.
That too the creation can be done at the click of a button by giving few prompts. In that sense, it has enabled Authors to create without having any pre-requisite knowledge in art, and creation.
Is this fair?
Copyright had not been phenomenally successful in staving off any technological development in the past, it has at best worked its way around the technology in the process it has also bridged the long gap that existed between the creator and the consumer. The technological development has also helped the consumer to also become a creator,
A prime example of this would be the way people are allowed to make videos on TikTok using songs that have been licensed out and are protected under copyright. Consumers of the songs are allowed to use them in TikTok videos as a creators,
copyright law itself is a result of technology. It burgeoned only after the invention of the printing press- a technological development.3 It was introduced to censor the books that were sold in England and to regulate the book trade by governing the relationship between the publisher and the work by providing limited ownership to the publisher for reaping profits from the work.4
The internet made copyright infringement way easier. Platforms such as YouTube needing to implement copyright for any unauthorized use of audio.
Copyright law stands on basic foundations such as ‘individual Authorship, and promotion of creativity.2 These foundation principles have held the sanctity of copyright law since its inception, the validity of these peremptory norms has been currently challenged by the Generative AI creation.
Music has always belonged to the one who created it, AI takes ownership of music it did not get permission to have.
Music is perceived as a process by the human creator, it is perceived as product by the Copyright law and is perceived as data by the machine.
Suno has access to many copyrighted music works as part of its training data.
The Authors of this paper have analysed the quandary by creating ‘music’ using SUNO AI, and by performing infringement analysis of the created song through another AI platform MIPPIA to understand the complex terrain of infringement analysis of generative AI.
This paper aims to understand how copyright infringement happens when generating music using Suno.
Platforms like SUNO AI have enabled even non-musicians to create music and don the hats of composers by giving few prompts without understanding the language in the first place This has disrupted copyright's traditional understanding of music and infringement.
AI makes it really easy for anyone to make songs.

In this article, the author talks about how human communication and social media have evolved over time. The interesting fact I took away from this is that the concept of social media isn't entirely new and has similarities of human traditions in the past.
How do you think attribution should work when copying and reusing content on social media (like if you post a meme or gif on social media)? When is it ok to not cite sources for content? When should sources be cited, and how should they be cited?
The way I think this should be approached is credit to the original user. Acknowledging that the repost does help the popularity of the content. For example a simple tag or credit label to the original poster should be more than enough.
How can you make sense of Shakespeare and Sir Walter15ScoR, or of the cons5tu5onal conflicts of the 17th century in both Scotland and England,without some such fundamental knowledge?
This underscores how essential christian tradition is to grasping the meaning of british literature and the great moments in its history

Bend
TEXT: The large text is the central aspect of the poster particularly the quote "Bend Toward Justice" famously spoken by Martin Luther King Jr. This text as a direct reference to the Civil Rights Movement is very political as it relates to how justice plays it's role in human rights. Below these larger words is a piece of text which discusses what should be sacrificed under oppression. This text seems relatively controversial as it highlights the necessity for a person to break their heart when oppressed. Compared to the bold statement of leaning towards justice not breaking under oppression.
COMPOSITION: The poster is composed only of words with no imagery, therefore relying on the text alone to relate to the audience. The larger text being the central part of the poster enunciates it's message and importance to the audience.

derman and Maloney (2003)found that for many developing countries the social rate of return on R&D expendituresis very high,and that actual investment in R&D in these countries is lower thantheoptimal level.Following the methodology used by these authors, Figure 1.2 shows new estimations of the social rate of returns on R&D investment and physical capital investmentfor 2013. The rate of return on R&D for Costa Rica is 34percent, as compared to a 6percentreturn on investment in physical capital.1This means that the return onan investment in R&D is almost sixtimes higher than that from investing in physical capitalin this country. In addition, given the high rate of return for investment in R&D in Costa Rica,it is striking that the level ofR&Dinvestment made in this country (approximately 0.57percentof GDPin 2014)and the participation of the private sector in this fieldare as low as they are, as documented later in this paper.1Following Lederman and Maloney (2003), the social rate of return on R&D investment (rs) is equal to:And the social rate of return on physical capital investment (r) is equal to:Because this approach does not incorporate the process of knowledge accumulation, these estimates indicate the lower limit of the real value of social returns (Guaipatin and Schwartz, 2014).

However, Costa Rican authorities 3According to Informe Estado de la Ciencia, la Tecnología y la Innovación, 2014.19have certainly made efforts to confront a number of challenges in critical areas, as set forth in the PNCTI.First, to re-orient investment efforts in R&D financed with public resources towardinnovation activities that will have real-world applications, the following initiatives are underway

owing,among other reasons,to perverse incentives confronted by academics. That is, the current incentives do not motivate academics to work in innovation projects demanded by firms
systemic issue in getting academics involved in research
However, the country’s public policies should be more successful in promoting supportivemarket architecture and an innovation mindset in the private sector, so that private investments in R&D may eventually overtake public sector expenditures to account for two-thirds or more of total investments in this area. In addition, R&D expenditure financed by the public sector does not necessarily make concrete contributions to innovation

18As mentioned previously, the bulk of R&D expenditures in Costa Rica are funded by the public sector (70.3percentin 20113). The government’s investment in innovation and related polices is geared to compensating for and overcoming market failures thatinhibit private sector innovation

Using the GDPR Wikipedia page is fine for a quick overview, but it’s shaky for details—pages change and legal wording is picky. If the chapter is arguing about privacy “rules” being unclear, it would be stronger to cite the actual text of GDPR (esp. Article 5 on purpose-limitation/data-minimization and Article 6 on lawful basis) and maybe an EDPB guideline. Quick win: keep the Wikipedia link for context, but add primary sources to back any claims about what GDPR requires.

Steven Spielberg. Catch Me If You Can. December 2002. URL: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0264464/.
This link sends you to an imdb page of the movie "Catch Me If You Can." This is one of my favorite movies that stars Tom Hanks and Leonardo DiCaprio that tells a true story of a person named Frank William Abagnale who stole the identity of multiple careers and made top of the line counterfeited checks. He posed as a pilot, then a doctor, then a lawyer, even got married, and eventually was caught. Then instead of jailtime, the FBI gave him a job to defraud counterfeit checks. This is a link to this chapter because it talks about privacy and security, whereas there are people who find ways around these rules/laws to gain something in return. It shows that while advancements in technology rapidly increase, it leads to more consequences and opportunities for others to act negatively.

This story is absolutely absurd. McAffee has excuse after excuse and contingency plan after contingency plan. He provides nothing about why he was in Belize to begin with. Reminds me of Alfred Inglethorp from Agatha Christie's The Mysterious affair at Styles, except Inglethorp had a very good reason to behave extremely suspicious.

Although there is an option for private messaging for users to have private communication with other users, it will still be stored in the cloud server. However, in today's era of widespread and advanced Internet access, private message also infringes upon users' privacy to a certain extent.
Unclear Privacy Rules: Sometimes privacy rules aren’t made clear to the people using a system. For example: If you send “private” messages on a work system, your boss might be able to read them [i19]. When Elon Musk purchased Twitter, he also was purchasing access to all Twitter Direct Messages [i20]
This part reminded me that the scariest privacy leaks aren’t big hacks—they’re everyday stuff. Work chats feel “private,” but admins can read them. Most people don’t know that. And parents posting kid pics? It feels loving, but the photo can carry location/time info that gives away routines. My quick rules: assume work tools are reviewable, turn off location on your camera, ask before posting other people (especially kids), and apps should make it super clear who can see your post and auto-strip metadata by default.
If you send “private” messages on a work system, your boss might be able to read them [i19].
This has concerning implications for companies that want to bust unions. Additionally, the fact that this is a possibility only divides management and employees further and creates adversity.

This shows that storytelling is not just entertainment but a human need to understand life. Text 11 York concludes that story structure is a universal pattern that connects all humans. Every story reflects a journey of change and understanding. Understanding story structure helps writers and audiences see how stories mirror real human experience.

His death is being investigated by police, the city police commission, the community police review agency and the county district attorney’s office.
News writers, like AP in this instance, often seem to provide an update on cause of death at the end of article, even if there is no actual update, like this one, because they know that readers are also going to be looking for that pretty sought-after information, and it's worth it for the writers to leave the juicy bit at the end.
His former agent, Brian Murphy, issued a statement at the request of Martin’s family which said Martin privately battled mental health challenges that “profoundly impacted his personal and professional life.”
The writers included this passage because they knew that including details of Martin's mental health struggles would garner more interest. With the new knowledge of how CTE affects current and former NFL players, dangerous patterns of mental health deterioration among football players over time becomes evident in some cases. AP choosing to include this detail could be implying that Martin was struggling with CTE, without actually knowing if that information was true or not yet. However, it would require a little more context and understanding of the football and brain trauma world before reading the article, but I'd imagine that AP knew that most people who would read about the passing of a former NFL running back would be aware of CTE and its effects.
Police said in a statement that Martin was involved in a break-in and that a “brief struggle” happened as police were attempting to detain him. The department did not release any other details.
The article does not show what happened to Doug Martin, but rather uses police friendly language like "brief struggle" to explain how he ended up in custody in the first place, with no details of how he eventually died. The article also does not include why there might have been a break-in in the first place, or any key details that would provide some context into the developing story.
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Former All-Pro NFL running back Doug Martin died after a struggle with police officers who were taking him into custody while they were investigating a break-in at a home in Oakland, police said Monday.
While the incident occurred in California, proximity to the event is not as relevant due to Doug Martin being known nationwide.
Former NFL player Doug Martin died after struggling with officers while being detained, police say
By introducing "Former NFL Player" into the headline, the writers are hoping to garner attention from people by using a public figure's fatal altercation with police, as opposed to a seemingly regular, ordinary police killing. Doug Martin being a fan favorite NFL player, from only a few years ago too for that matter, is likely going to draw a lot of media and fan attention from his death alone.
Arizona’s right to full representation in Congress is not up for debate,
Declarative statement
Nobody believes for one moment that if Grijalva’s Republican opponent had won, that person wouldn’t already be a sitting member of Congress.

Then he insisted he couldn’t swear her in while the House was not in session, which is laughable given that earlier this year, he swore in two representatives elected in special elections during pro-forma sessions.
This gives a lot of prespective about what is happening and shows the reader that this is not because the house was not in session but implies a political motive.
Why? Because Speaker Mike Johnson refuses to do his job.

Arizona's attorney general explains how Johnson is using the newly elected Democrat as a pawn in his shutdown fight, and keeping the Epstein files secret.

Including marginalized voices has already changed science for the better. Movements like feminism, disability rights, and racial justice have pushed science to ask new questions and challenge old assumptions
As someone that is a minority, other fellow minorities will bring a completely new perspective on topics and ideas.
The Sociology of Science looks at what it’s actually like to be a scientist—and it reveals a lot of challenges that don’t show up in textbooks
This make a lot of sense, but I believe that this goes with jobs or anything that's slightly productive in life. Because everything that is to benefit humidity or is going to benefit humidity.
How does science affect people’s lives and relationships?
This is very interesting because make me think how logical science and illogical relationship are.
This means objectivity isn’t about being detached—it’s about being connected and accountable to others
Science should be accessible to all. Some people may not have viable access to science because of social standings, but I think everyone should get a free shoot and I agree with the statement.
Communalism – Scientific knowledge should be shared freely. It belongs to everyone, not just the person who discovered it. Today, this idea clashes with things like paywalls that block access to research.
Scientific knowledge that is at the benefit of people should be released because science research should be used in ways that can help evolve the human race. I also think all of it should be released too, because good or bad, research is research.
In short, science is not just about labs and equations—it’s about people. And by looking at the social side of science, we get a clearer picture of how it really works and how it can better serve everyone.
I agree with this because I feel like most scientific research always has a benefit towards humans.
Science can be tough. Long hours, constant pressure to publish, and low pay are common. But for people from marginalized groups—like women, people of color, LGBTQ+ scientists, and those with disabilities—it’s even harder.
This is something that we can always evolutionzie but the problem is that people have negative biases and stereotypes of people that should not be. This is an example of negative beliefs.
Eventually, a new idea or theory replaces the old one, and the whole field shifts. That’s a scientific revolution.
This is apart of research and it is normal for people or things to contradict because nothing is set in stone. That is the beauty of evolution.
Humans bring their values, beliefs, and social dynamics into everything they do. That’s why understanding the social side of science is so important.
This is important to understand because humans unconsciously imply or use their beliefs and values in a lot of things. It is important to have beliefs and values because it lets you connect with people and make the person you are.
misconceptions and ageist views that can infringe on older adults’ rights to sexual expression.
these beliefs often leave older adults to refrain from expressing sexual desires due to what others say "I'm too old"
this perspective, highlighting the leisure qualities of sex, including sexual pleasure, autonomy, self-determination and sexual rights for all.
I believe in many cultures it is shamed upon when engaging in self-masturbation, or even sex with your unmarried partner. I believe many of these beliefs can contribute to individuals neglecting their sexual needs.
health benefits, including improved cardiovascular function, relaxation, and decreased pain sensitivity and depressive symptoms,
Yes it has wayyyy more benefits than harms! I believe it is more harmful to refrain from orgasming or engaging in intercourse.
I'll include this link to read more about the benefits: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10903655/
playfulness, experimentation, connection, intrinsic motivation and instant gratification are often adults’ motivations for engaging in sexual activity.
Yes!!! That sexual passion can fade away if these characteristics are not practiced. But, sexual passion can be reignited once these characteristics are practiced towards partners. I believe many relationships, as they spend more years together, they become comfortable and stop pursuing their partner and then are not as sexually intersted in them/
sexual activity increases older adults’ risk of heart attack
Maybe some young adults carried this perception because they view older adults as "weak" and unable or even restricted from having sex.
“However, their general views of sexuality and sex as a recreational activity do explain quite a lot about young adults’ views on sexuality in later life. That is particularly important because it provides insight for developing sexual health education programs that focus on sexuality as a lifelong pursuit.”
Ahh this answers my previous question about whether the research topic and her area of study were related.
young adults tend to exhibit increasing levels of tolerance, acceptance and open-mindedness about later-life sexuality,
we deserve to have the ability to experience sexual pleasure, no matter the age!

I wonder what interested Liza in this topic. Correct me if I'm wrong, but is there a connection in the research question and their area of expertise?
disinterest in sex is a normal and inevitable part of aging.

Kurt Wagner. This is how Facebook collects data on you even if you don’t have an account. Vox, April 2018. URL: https://www.vox.com/2018/4/20/17254312/facebook-shadow-profiles-data-collection-non-users-mark-zuckerberg (visited on 2023-12-05).
Great, accessible explainer of “shadow profiles”—how contact uploads, embedded pixels/Like buttons, and partner data let Facebook infer identities beyond users. Its strength is concreteness; its limitation is age: it predates GDPR enforcement UX changes, Facebook’s “Off-Facebook Activity” tool, and Apple ITP/ATT. The pipes largely persist even if consent flows look nicer. For class, pair it with a mini-lab: check “Off-Facebook Activity,” download your data archive, and watch requests to facebook.com/tr in DevTools to see tracking in the wild. Ethically, it spotlights “consent by proxy”: your friends’ uploads can deanonymize you—an argument for collective privacy rights, not just individual settings.
h2]
Facebook makes things called "shadow profiles" of people who don't even have Facebook accounts. An amalgamation of collected information that could be used to make a facebook account for someone immediately upon entering the app. Though, facebook ceo denies that is the purpose of the data. They track things like your browsing history and information from your friends who already have accounts. Als they say its for things like security, and there are some other app features that are improved with access to the data but don't need it.
For example, social media data about who you are friends with might be used to infer your sexual orientation [h9]. Social media data might also be used to infer people’s: Race Political leanings Interests Susceptibility to financial scams Being prone to addiction (e.g., gambling)
I think these tell us a dangerous shift that from expressed identity to inferred identity. When platforms guess traits like sexuality, politics, or “addiction risk” from friends and clicks, they create shadow labels you never consented to—labels that can trail you into credit, insurance, hiring, or campus discipline. I think platform should give notification for this actually.
It is important to look for "time on task" engagement.
This brief statement is powerful for me! Engagement can be described in different ways, but if students are busy being "engaged" by selecting user names, avatars or playing a "reward" game of flappy bird, engagement isn't "time on task." Students must be engaged in the content, as the previous statement, for this engagement to qualify as worthwhile. There is a balance, to be sure, of entertainment and education, but it must favor the content of the lesson.
keep your standards high even in a news frenzy when you see other organizations reporting information that hasn’t been verified.
I really appreciate this piece of advice, as this is what marks a trustworthy outlet.

Figure 2. Culture shock stages
My personal experience is mostly similar but with some differences to this graph. When I first came to the US for high school, I felt really excited and my excitement and joy level was high. About a year later when I keep repeating the same way of life, I found it hard to adapt in terms of the social life. I was in a really depressed state of mind. Therefore my second red line would be steeper than this graph.

noise
How do you balance important information with fluff (noise) to make it more personal able without distracting from the main point.
This scenario highlights how easily communication can break down
This happens so often without us even realizing it. Missing emails is so easy. Also, understanding what someone means over text often requires some sort of interpretation that can be taken in the completely wrong direction if the message does not say word for word what it is asking.
My colleagues have been reporting on one of the most dramatic heists this century
Opinion- not necessarily the author's opinion, but their colleagues, who are people who are working for the New York Times, who extremely likely to be people who are not experts in art museum robberies.
Today, we look at how thieves pulled off this weekend’s brazen daylight robbery in Paris and why they did it.
This news is not something that is near to us or NYC at all, but is something that has been all over my news feed and social media feeds. Why this was in the news is likely largely due to the unusualness of the matter, that one of the most famous art museums in the art capital of the world was broken into, and is a place that is known to have lots of security in general. That leads to the next point of the prominence of the story, and how whether you are interested in art or not, almost everyone in America has heard of The Louvre, or at least some of the art that is in the museum, like the Mona Lisa.
This article may have come from a public relations statement about the robbery in general, but not necessarily as a way to promote the museum in general, since hearing about a robbery may make people feel that they are unsafe while being at the museum, and that there isn't enough security.
It happens more often than you may think!
This wording sounds similar to an opinion rather than fact, where they are assuming what the reader is thinking.
The thieves weren’t after oil masterworks
This is interesting to say because how does this author know this? The thieves didn't say that they were specifically not looking for oil art pieces, but just that they went after the jewels first.

Our results show a consistent association between an inflammatory diet (measured by the DII) and incident depressive outcomes, which supports the hypothesis that avoiding pro-inflammatory foods in favor to anti-inflammatory diet might contribute to prevent incidence of depression and depressive symptoms.
Avoiding a highly inflammatory diet can help prevent depressive symptoms.
It is common for large observational studies to collect self-reported dietary data with imperfect instruments such as food frequency questionnaires
This elaborates on the last limitation of the questionnaires.
there was heterogeneity across studies: most used questionnaires, in particular the CES-D, although differing versions, and some questionnaires were only used in a single study (MFQ [25], BDI [56]). Only a minority of studies examined clinical depression [48, 58, 67, 71, 75, 79], assessed by clinical interview or self-reported physician diagnosis, complemented by the use of anti-depressants.
Limitations of the studies with questionnaires.
Systemic inflammation can affect the brain by active transport of cytokines through the brain endothelium or activation of vagal fibers, and also plays a role in the regulation of emotions through mechanisms involving neurotransmitters including serotonin, dopamine, noradrenaline, and glutamate
I could discuss the regulation of emotions through dietary substances, such as fiber.
The three longitudinal studies [48, 51, 55] show a lower risk of incident depression in the high diet score category compared to low (0.76; 95% CI: 0.57, 1.02), but this association is only borderline significant at the conventional level
Evidence for the benefits of high diet scores.
The combined estimate from four longitudinal studies [31, 45, 46, 48] shows that people in the highest category of adherence to a Mediterranean diet have lower odds/risk of incident depressive outcomes, with an overall estimate of 0.67; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.55, 0.82 compared to people with lowest adherence
This could shed light on the types of diet in my section of the review.
The neurological pathways potentially affecting depression risk that can be modulated by nutritional intake are related to inflammation, oxidative stress, neuroplasticity, mitochondrial function, and the gut microbiome
This could be considered a research question.
the dietary intake of specific nutrients such as n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, B vitamins, zinc, and magnesium have been implicated in brain function
Vitamins that are associated with brain function.
identifying modifiable risk factors to guide intervention strategies to prevent mood disorders and decrease their severity would appear to have value.
What they are identifying and how they are combating it.
Depression, characterized by low mood, loss of interest or pleasure in life, and disturbed sleep or appetite, affects over 300 million people globally [1], which represents a global prevalence of 7% for women and 4% for men [2].
This could be a relevant statistic to quote in the paper. Showing the overall population size of people with depression.
The aim of this systematic review was to synthesize the link between diet quality, measured using a range of predefined indices, and depressive outcomes.
This shows the relevance to my section (diet) in our literature review.
Le numérique a engendré une transformation profonde des modèles de production et de circulation des contenus que nous connaissons depuis le XVIIIe siècle.
Selon moi, cette citation met bien en avance ce que l’on a vu en cours : le numérique a permis à ce que l’on ne passe plus forcément toujours par des éditeurs. Désormais, grâce à l’avancée d’internet et du numérique, n’importe qui est capable de poster librement.
Social media companies make profits through advertising. So, even though it clarifies that the platform respects privacy, it might still detect our personal information secretly in order to push advertisements we might be interested in. I once conducted a little experiment on myself, which involved scrolling through content related to clothes and fashion, and most of the advertisements were for clothing brands and jewelry.
What are your biggest concerns around privacy on social media? What incentives do social media companies have to protect privacy? What incentives to social media companies have to violate privacy? What incentives do social media companies have to be careless with privacy?
In terms of privacy on social media, the biggest concerns if the amount of information certain social media platforms require one to put in about their identity. It allows for countless others to know who you as as well as other factors about your life. Social media companies have some incentives on protecting privacy by giving the users many ways to hide their profile and to limit the information given out in the public. In terms of them violating privacy, they allow dates, locations, and more to show about a persons posts. Social media companies are also careless with privacy because they require a lot for one to make an account as well as recommending people who they should not be recommending.
contests are held in which entrants compete to produce the most ridiculous imitation of Hemingway’s writing style
I never knew this was a thing
Oedipus kills his father, Laius,” “Oedipus marries his mother,” and “Oedipus immolates the Sphinx
This reminds me of Freud's philosophies.
He has done a great deal of work (much of it highly controversial) on myths, kinship systems, and related matters
I wonder why it is controversial
Kurt Wagner. This is how Facebook collects data on you even if you don’t have an account. Vox, April 2018
I didn't know that social media sites could collect data on people who weren't members. If your friends share their contacts with facebook, or you even just browse on websites linked to them, facebook can collect your data. Additionally, there is no way to opt out of this kind of data collection.
One of the main goals of social media sites is to increase the time users are spending on their social media sites. The more time users spend, the more money the site can get from ads, and also the more power and influence those social media sites have over those users. So social media sites use the data they collect to try and figure out what keeps people using their site, and what can they do to convince those users they need to open it again later.
This reminds me of the saying "if you're not paying for the product, you are the product". I feel like it's a little disturbing to realize how much data social media takes from you. I wonder if theres an ethical way to do this that limits privacy infringement because I feel like targeted ads could be useful in some cases, for both consumers and business owners.
At least four French museums have been robbed in the last two months
Impact stretches beyond this crime, but the lack of security priceless French treasures over the past several months
The French government will not be compensated for the stolen works of art.
Impacts the nation both financially and culturally. This line also carries prominence, since it involves the French state and national property...it's not only a private loss.
Beccuau told RTL: “The wrongdoers who took these gems won’t earn €88m
This quote brings in human interest. It's not only about stolen jewels, but also about greed, destruction and value, which adds a more personal element to the story.
Paris prosecutors have charged a specialised unit known as the BRB with investigating the crime.
Mentioning an elite police force being brought into the investigation adds a special level of prominence, showing this is a high-stakes investigation over priceless jewels. It also shows impact as well, since the government is taking this matter very seriously at a national level.
Contrary to some reports, it said, the display cases protecting the stolen Napoleonic jewellery had been installed in 2019 and “represented a considerable improvement in terms of security”.
This adds conflict between the media's narrative and the museum itself. Journalists include this because of the tension and disagreement to make stories more engaging to the reader.
“The Louvre museum’s security apparatus did not fail, that is a fact,”
The quote from the culture minister is very defensive and repeated. Officials like her influence the media to protect their image through their word choices. Reiterating "that is a fact" further solidifies this idea.
A gang of four thieves forced their way into the Louvre’s Apollo gallery shortly after the museum opened on Sunday morning
Calling these individuals a "gang" makes this heist seem organized and dangerous. As an American, the proximity isn't super relevant to me since France is on the other side of the ocean. However, Oltermann is an effective storyteller, making this crime seem like a movie...crime-focused and dramatic.
the head of the Louvre prepared to face difficult questions over how thieves were able to steal priceless jewellery in broad daylight.
This line takes the blame and puts it on the leadership, shifting the focus on accountability. It frames this story as one that could've happened because someone didn't do their job.
The financial loss from France’s most dramatic heist in decades has been put at nearly €90m
The word choice of "dramatic" makes the story sound really exciting and huge. It's written to captivate the audience's attention right away, making this story seem like an important one. It's written to grab attention from the get-go, not just report facts.
Stand up for that, and you will find that you are not alone.
Seaman is doing her best to raise awareness on the issues of climate change, just like the authors of all our previous readings.
She hopes the news will wake people up.
Just like Wallace-Wells, Seaman hopes that people will realize how bad and just how fast climate change is moving.
Tourists have a close encounter with Adélie penguins in the Antarctic Sound.
It looks like this specific part of Antarctica has more ice, most likely not as affected by global warming. This area most likely has a higher survival rate of penguins as well.
Adélie penguins try to beat the heat on Paulet Island.
We can see from the photo that there is barely any ice on the ground, and we can infer from that, that the sea water is most likely not that cold either.
“They were looking for any little patch of snow or ice to lay on.”
So much of the snow and ice have melted because of global warming, eliminating habitats for these arctic animals.
baby Adélie penguin with its tongue sticking out to cool off.
As cute as this sounds, penguins having to stick their tongue out to cool off sounds very saddening. I searched up a photo of this, and though it was not an Adélie penguin, the penguin looked very exhausted because of the heat.
Higher temperatures can also be difficult for cold-weather penguins, especially chicks, Seaman said.
Cold-weather species are not used to higher temperatures, so the effect on them will be more significant. Chicks are especially more vulnerable, and most of the recent issues have to do with chicks not being able to survive because of the effects climate change have caused.
So it has this incredible chain effect.
In nature, the chain effect with prey and predators is very important. When one species is affected, so are the rest.
They believe climate change is largely to blame, saying less sea ice and warmer oceans have reduced the krill that many of the penguins rely on for food.
Climate change is a big factor when it comes to the decline of the penguin population. Less sea ice and warmer temperatures affect penguin's diets, breeding, and habitat.
An Adélie penguin jumps over water at Brown Bluff on the Antarctic peninsula.
Different species of animals are having to adapt because of the loss of sea ice caused by global warming.
Tourists kayak near icebergs off the coast of Cuverville Island.
From the photo, it looks like there's barely any sea ice left in this particular region. There should be more considering it's the coast of an island in Antarctica.
Scientists say the planet is warming faster than previously thought and that the window is rapidly closing to cut our reliance on fossil fuels and avoid catastrophic outcomes.
We know this from the previous readings we did in class, climate change is real and it's happening fast.
nearly 3 degrees Celsius (5.4 degrees Fahrenheit) in the last 50 years.
The Antarctic peninsula is one of the fastest warming regions on Earth, in the past 50 years, the temperatures have risen nearly 3 degrees, raising sea levels and in turn threatening animals who rely on that environment to survive.
Last year, Antarctica registered a record-high temperature of 18.3 degrees Celsius, or nearly 65 degrees Fahrenheit.
I think this temperature in Antarctica is mind blowing. We experience this temperature even here in California, where it's considered to be warmer and more tropical.
The white landscape isn’t so white anymore.
This is most likely one of the most significant effects of climate change on Antarctica.
And now it's just mud and rocks
Seaman mentions that there are places in the Antarctic where she's never seen the ground before, as there had always been snow cover. However, now the snow is gone and it's just mud and rocks.
which often turns the snow pink and sometimes green.
Another effect of climate change can be heard hear, snow algae turns the snow pink and sometimes green. This occurrence is not unusual, but what's unusual is that fact that the algae blooming is showing up earlier than usual.
Fragments of ice called bergy bits can make it difficult for people to travel on and off the coastline.
We can see from the photo that fragments of ice have formed in the sea, making it difficult for both humans and animals to move on and off the coastline.
She’s seen it with her own eyes.
The photographer, Seaman, has seen climate change affect the earth with her own eyes. She's been visiting Antarctica and she has been able to observe a noticeable change in just the past few years.

George R.T. Hewes wrote the following reminiscence of the Boston Tea Party almost 61 years after it occurred. It is likely that his memories included more than a few stories he picked up well after 1773. Nonetheless Hews provides a highly detailed account of this important event.
Although this is a primary source due to the person being a part of the act, it is not entirely reliable due to the fact that it was written almost 61 years after the act.
Third grade was the year I learned in school that I was poor.
I've seen that school is often the place where children gain class consciousness, especially students t in poverty being surrounded by their peers experience differing economic conditions at home. Having to become aware of your class so early on in life and with such hostility is a reality for so many kids. I taught art over the summer and there were students who would brag about the money their parents had, while other students would try to compete or get just get quiet. I felt that there needed to be guidance for teachers to deal with situations like that so no student every felt shame for their class background.

Teachers don’t need to come from their students’ cultures to be able to teach them, but empathy and cultural knowledge are essential.
This shows the importance of a reciprocal relationship between students and teachers. Sometimes there is a strange separation between teacher and student that prevents true understanding. In my opinion, the best teachers don't just teach, but learn from their students and their lived experiences and perspectives.
Adverse Childhood Experiences Model
This figure really hurts to see, but it is so important to understand the impacts of poverty in all stages and sectors of someone's life. People's social and emotional problems, mental health, and even family dynamics, are not isolated but are shaped by the economic conditions they live under. It shows the need to understand the class structures that inform a student's ability to learn and thrive. There are ways that educators can fight back locally against the broader systems that keep people in poverty while those at the top continue to get richer.
Single parenthood strains resources and correlates directly with poor school attendance, lower grades, and lower chances of attending college (Xi & Lal, 2006)
This made me reflect on my experience growing up in a middle-class single parent household. My mom already struggled raising my brother and I while working full-time even with the privileges of being middle class, so I can't imagine what it would be like as a single parent in poverty trying to provide the best environment for your children. It makes me think back to the opportunity gap and how parents should not solely be to blame for the struggles their kids have in the classroom. Oftentimes they are trying their very best and fighting for their kids to meet their basic needs.
Situational poverty is generally caused by a sudden crisis or loss and is often temporary. Events causing situational poverty include environ-mental disasters, divorce, or severe health problems
The part about severe health problems really sticks out for situational poverty and exposes the system that cares more about profits for healthcare and big pharmaceutical companies than people's health and wellbeing. Why is it that having an injury or a medical emergency can plummet someone into poverty? Healthcare, just like education, should be accessible to everyone.

So throughout, we want to make sure that we're articulating values and connecting them to specific actions at every turn. And pictures. More pictures.
When coming to Campus Cuts there is no beating around the bush that the placeyou will be getting your haircut is in my dorm bathroom. Not exactly ideal, I know.However, we do our damnedest to make sure that it is as comfortable as we canmake it.

QualityWhen cutting hair, I put every last drop of sweat to make sure that the hair cut I givelooks as good as it can possibly look. Paying attention to small details is somethingwe value here, and that causes us to give the professional looking haircuts that wedo. Doesn’t matter how long it takes; I will make sure the haircut is up to thecustomer’s par. To aid with this we always make sure to ask throughout the wholehaircut experience how it looks and if there’s anything I could be doing differently.This assures us that we don’t mess up and go too deep that we can’t fix it. We arehappy when you are happy. And to ensure happiness, if you don't like the haircut,you can come back 5 days after your original cut to have it fixed in case there issomething you're not satisfied with

Racine du problème...
Consider the following sequence of events. Server 1, 2, and 3 are up; server 3crashes; server 1 and 2 form a new group; server 2 crashes. Now as we want to tolerate networkpartitions correctly, we forced server 1 to fail. However, this is too strict. If server 1 stays aliveand server 3 is restarted, server 1 and 3 can form a new group, because server 1 must have per-formed all the updates that server 2 could have performed. The rule in general is that twoservers can recover, if the server that did not fail has a higher sequence number, as in this case itis certain that the new member has not formed a group with the (now) unavailable member in themeantime. We will incorporate this improvement in our directory service in the near future.
Нетривиальный корнейкейс: система заставляет Server 1 упасть, хотя он мог бы подождать Server 3 и нормально восстановиться... Решение очень элегантное: смотреть sequence numbers. Если у неупавшего сервера sequence number выше, он гарантированно видел все апдейты и может безопасно пересобрать группу
Inthe PB method, each message appears on the network twice: once to the sequencer and oncefrom the sequencer. Thus a message of length n bytes consumes 2n bytes of network bandwidth.However, only the second message is broadcast, so each user machine is interrupted only once(for the second message).In the BB method, the full message appears only once on the network, plus a very short acceptmessage from the sequencer. Thus, only about n bytes of bandwidth are consumed. On theother hand, every machine is interrupted twice, once for the message and once for the accept
Интересный trade-off между bandwidth и количеством прерываний. PB ест 2n байт трафика, с одним прерыванием на машину. BB же экономит bandwidth (n), но у него два прерывания на обе машины. На практике же это будто можно применить при оптимизации под разные боттлнеки: если сеть - ботлнек, то BB метод лучше, если процессор - ботлнек, то PB лучше. Ещё классно, что протокол динамически меняется в зависимости от размера сообщения

For our purposes in this book, we will define communication as the process of generating meaning by sending and receiving verbal and nonverbal symbols and signs that are influenced by multiple contexts. This definition builds on other definitions of communication that have been rephrased and refined over many years.
That biggest part about communication is that we got to learn to activate Listen meaning looking for the tone and body language for then person who we communicate with asking questions if we have them that’s what’s important in communicating with other people in the world today. Not only that to show respect for the speaker, have empathy, and making sure we know how the speaker feels.
The current digital ecosystem requires that people’s behaviour online (their clicks, their likes, their follows, their browsing) by monetized (and weaponized). Archaeology - and the popular conception of archaeology promulgated by so-called ‘alternative archaeologies’ - generates a lot of content, hence clicks, and thus money for Facebook, Amazon, Google.
This passage is an uneasy relationship between digital scholarship and capitalist infrastructures hosting it. My Silk Road GIS project participates in this ecosystem the instant that it goes online: each map view, zoom, and download turns into data that platforms can harvest for profit. In that sense, even well-intentioned digital research is complicit in the attention economy. Yet this awareness also opens a path to critical resistance. I redirect the engagements toward education rather than monetization by first prioritizing open-access hosting; second, sharing metadata through academic repositories rather than commercial clouds; and third, marking my visualizations for their interpretive and not entertainment value. The Silk Road GIS thus becomes both a case study and a critique of how digital archaeology operates within and can ethically challenge the systems which commodify knowledge.
Nowadays, visually appealling models can be generated by low-cost smart-phone apps and shared immediately with services such as Sketchfab (check out their Cultural Heritage & History category).
This democratization parallels the intent of publishing the Silk Road GIS map in an accessible, interactive format. This does both cases blur the line between professional and public digital archaeology supporting inclusive participation in spatial storytelling.
Photogrammetry, as the name implies, is the derivation of measurements from photographs. In our case, we are talking about triangulation.
This is reminiscent of how my GIS project took textual and archaeological descriptions and turned them into spatial coordinates; in both cases, qualitative evidence was rendered as quantitative geometry a digital act of translation that reframed historical data as measurable space.
Do you think there is information that could be discovered through data mining that social media companies should seek out (e.g., they can’t make their platform treat people fairly without knowing this)?
Hate speech and misinformation simply because they are able of doing material harm. Although beyond that I find it pretty appealing that people can profit of of the business of peoples information. I don't think that any private actor weather it be an individual or a corporation should have the right to any of your information unless you gve them consent to it.

It makes no practical difference, these days, to make a hard-and-vast distinction between the digital and the physical.
My maps of the Silk Road collapse that boundary as well. Physical features mountains, rivers are reduced to digital cost values, while the resulting maps guide historical hypotheses about the movement of trade, showing how computational representations can reshape our sense of physical geography.

I find it strange that this number differs from the one given on the previous page ("Totals...[…] 21,533").
Point 4.c. does indicate that "102 claims were rejected", but this is not the same the difference observed (which is 92), and it's stated that the 102 rejected claims come from "a survey [i.e. sample] of some 10,000 renewal applications".

This shows exactly how this case is completely unethical.

In the end who is the winner of this and where would this money be coming from for his extremely large payout.

I wish there were laws set in place that would not allow for this kind of ethical conflict.

The very idea that Trump nearly has say in the review of his claims is shocking. Along with this his friends and colleges are part of this review is wrong.

As [Audrey Watters] (Watters (2012)) suggests, ‘parachute’ technologies i.e. devices that are dropped into school environments assume that children will ‘use [them], hack [them], and prosper’.
This critique runs parallel with 'parachute' uses of GIS: when the modern spatial models are imposed on medieval history without cultural calibration. My Silk Road model must avoid this by situating digital tools in historical and local contexts rather than assuming its universal applicability.

It is important at the outset to make the argument that digital archaeology is not about ‘mere’ tool use. Andrew Goldstone in Debates in the Digital Humanities discusses this tension (Goldstone 2018). He has found (and Lincoln Mullen concurs with regard to his own teaching, Mullen (2017)) that our current optimism about teaching technical facility is misplaced. Tools first, context second doesn’t work.
the Silk Road GIS, resonates with this caveat. GIS is not a neutered cartographic tool; it's one for framing. The interpretive logics in every parameter slope, trade hub density, terrain require the contexts to come prior to tool application. My workflow treats GIS as a reasoning medium, not software.

Like racism, poverty creates daily obstacles that call on the strength and per-severance of those who endure it.
I think that the discussions of race and class are inseparable and intersectional. You can't talk about one without the other. We learned las week that race is socially constructed, and that it was created and continues to be upheld for the economic interests of the people on top to continue to justify the oppression and exploitation of others. Institutionalized racism reinforces the economic conditions of certain racial and ethnic identities as well.

What incentives to social media companies have to violate privacy?
They get money from selling the information of their users to other companies. They will also be able to use more targeted ads if they use all the information they have about a user, and if the user buys something, they make more money from that purchase.
In prisons, where people’s bodies are already physically constrained, all that is left to confine is their minds and spirits. If we, as a profession, are going to be advocates for intellectual freedom, then our advocacy must be extended to all and to those who have been stripped of their most basic human rights: incarcerated people.
What a powerful book
Even small wording differences can substantially affect the answers people provide.
It’s interesting how something as small as changing one word or phrase can completely shift how people interpret a question. This made me think about how often survey results in the news might be influenced by the way questions are asked, not just by people’s actual opinions. I think this shows that writing survey questions is more of a science than I realized, it takes a lot of testing and awareness to get it right. Overall, this part of the reading made me appreciate how much work goes into making surveys fair, balanced, and truly representative of what people think.
✔️ If x is greater than 2, it's always doubled, and then that result is always greater than 4, so it's set to 0 in the second if statement.

A spillover occurs when a pathogen infects a new host species (2,3). The vast majority of spillovers will not lead to an outbreak or pandemic. However, for pathogens with pandemic potential, each spillover into a human is an opportunity to launch a pandemic.
A spillover is when a virus or pathogen that usually lives in animals crosses over and infects humans. It happens when people come into close contact with animals that carry the virus or with things contaminated by them. Most spillovers don’t cause large outbreaks, but each one gives the virus a chance to adapt and spread.
