    1. Marriage equality costs society nothing and takes no power away from anyone. No one has been able to argue persuasively that your gay marriage hurts my straight marriage. But reproductive rights come with a price tag: Government funding is inevitably involved.

      I find this point weak. We tax married couples differently. There's government subsidy in both.

    1. Zudem hat Münkler wortwörtlich die Macht. Dozierende haben tausendundeine Möglichkeit, Studierenden ohne Beweise und informell das Leben zur Hölle zu machen. Sei es bei all den kleinen Ausnahmen (Reading Journal zu spät abgeben, Unpässlichkeit bei Terminen) die es dann „leider, leider“ nicht mehr gibt, oder miese Behandlung in Veranstaltungen, Auslegungssachen in Klausuren, bis hin zur sprichwörtlichen Ausgeliefertheit in mündlichen Prüfungen – gibt es jede Menge Möglichkeiten, die asymmetrische Machtverteilung in gesellschaftlichen Feld „Universität“ für Subalterne spürbar werden zu lassen.

      Gab es denn solche Fälle in der Vergangenheit? Dann wäre eine klare Benennung hilfreich. So klingt das erst einmal nach einer puren Mutmaßung und Unterstellung von Boshaftigkeit. Wissenschaftler*innen sind jeden Tag der Kritik ausgesetzt. Zu vermuten, dass all dies eintreffen würde zeugt vor allem von einem sehr negativen Menschenbild. Nach einem öffentlichen Austausch würde sich niemand so etwas erlauben, weil es sofort in eben diese Ecke gestellt würde. Für die Personen hinter dieser Seite geht es scheinbar sehr emotional zu, das ist zu respektieren - aber es wäre doch auch gut, wenn umgekehrt akzeptiert würde, dass es nicht für alle Menschen so ist und dass das Interesse der Dozierenden an den Studierenden abseits der Veranstaltung nicht ansatzweise so groß ist, wie sie glauben.

    1. Federated Wiki sites form neighborhoods that change dynamically as you navigate FedWiki space.

      Making this annotation in Readability which evidently does not provide a meta tag indicating the canonical URL?

    1. This is where Black Mirror can be useful, not as a series that people sit and watch, but as a piece of culture that leads people to put forth the questions that the show jumps over.

      it is annoying you have to add text or tag each time you make something public.

    2. if you are unable to alter the future why not simply prepare yourself for it by watching more episodes of Black Mirror? A

    4. the fact that technology serves this society only by producing commodities.

      it is annoying you have to add text or tag each time you make something public.

    5. The episode “The Complete History of You” may be intensely disturbing, but what company was it that developed and brought the “grains” to market? What biotechnology firm supplies the grieving spouse in “Be Right Back” with the robotic/clone of her deceased husband? Who gathers the information from these devices? Where does that information live? Who is profiting? These are important questions that go unanswered, largely because they go unasked.

      it is annoying you have to add text or tag each time you make something public.

    1. embed.js

      embed.js is responsible for "embedding" the different components of the Hypothesis frontend application into the page.

      First, either bookmarklet.js or one of the browser plugins injects a <script> tag to embed.js into the page, then embed.js runs.

      This way the code in embed.js is shared across all bookmarklets and browser plugins, and the bookmarklets and plugins themselves have very little code.

    1. n semi-structured tagging, users select tags from a tag hierarchy, but may add tags within the hierarchy as needed. By reusing existing tags, users gain the structural benefits of ontologies while still retaining the flexibility of open tagging

      Yes, I believe that this is the best compromise.

  3. uselessuser.info uselessuser.info
    1. <html <?php language_attributes(); ?> class="no-js"> <head> <meta charset="<?php bloginfo( 'charset' ); ?>">

      why is the "<?php.." awkwardly breaking up the html tag? is this standard practice? does it have a special purpose?

    1. News and Announcements

      The City of Ann Arbor's approach to providing these kinds of updates has vasty improved over the last two years. For example, the links don't click through to .pdf files but rather to standalone pages.

      I'd suggest that the City take this "News and Announcements" page as a great starting point and (1) add content to which the City has easy access. E.g. outcome-based reporting on City Council votes; new candidate filings; crime graphs on a quarterly basis; etc. (2) tag the articles so readers can filter in and out the kind of thing they want to see. E.g., roadclosing, publicinputmeeting, or what-have-you.; (3) provide a page design that has look and feel of a "news outlet" with appropriate logo and brand it as "Official City News" every so there's no mistaking it for third-party reporting about the city.

      This could potentially become the most reliable and well-read "news source" in the city.

    1. hyphenated words that are split over two

      again, not clear how this is a problem of FXL. Is hyphenation not supported natively so people implement it by inserting the line break tag in between each word? This should be explained more clearly.

    1. Abbildung 50: M-Learning ist ... (Seipold 21.03.2011)

      Für die Entwicklung von Geschichts-Apps wird ein Blick auf die Eigenschaften von Mobile Learning sicher hilfreich sein. Die Visualisierung lotet das Potenzial und die Eigenschaften von mobile gut aus, und mehr dazu bringt auch die Webseite der Autorin.

    1. When Adobe rolled out Single Edition in 2011, launching a single app came with the price tag of $395—expensive, but manageable. Then, in 2012, Adobe rolled Single Edition in with their $50 per month Creative Cloud subscriptions targeting small to mid-size publishers. This subscription provided access to Adobe apps and by extension to DPS Single Edition. Subscribers were able to build an unlimited number of apps for the Apple App Store through this subscription level with certain limitations, one being that these apps were published as standalone apps without subscription capabilities, meaning that they weren’t able to become part of the Newsstand. This was an obvious disadvantage, but again, manageable.

      At this point I am starting to get curious where you are going with the essay. This is all an account of the what happened—background—but your ideas haven't started flowing.

    1. allows users to tag resources they find around the web using competencies from the Web Literacy Map.

      I concur. I think the organizing and curating information on the web is a competency missing from the map.

    1. A 201 response MAY contain an ETag response header field indicating the current value of the entity tag for the requested variant just created, see section 14.19.

      This to me reads that the ETag in this response should refer to the resource at the end of the Location URI.

      This doesn't read very well. How about "use the search bar to find all annotations with a specific tag"

    1. Ho w to R ead a Judicia l Opin ion: A G uid e for N ew L aw Stu den ts Professor Orin S. Kerr George Washington University Law School Washington, DC Version 2.0 (August 2005) This essay is desig ned to help entering law students understand ho w to read cas es for class. It explains what judicial opinions are, how they are structured, and what you should look for when you read them. Part I explains the various ingredients found in a typical judicial opinion, and is the most essential section of the essay . Par t II discusses what you should look for when you re ad an opinion for class. Part II I con clu des with a brief discussion of why law schools use the case method.

      I need a way to add tags to a document that will apply to all annotations in a particular document (except where explicitly canceled).

      The problem is that I often want to query all annotations related to a specific document, collection of documents, or type of activity.

      Type of activity requires further explanation: Given a document or collection of documents I may annotate the document for different reasons at different times.

      For example, while annotating the reading materials, video transcripts, and related documents for the CopyrightX course there are certain types of annotations that may be "bundled together" so that when I search for those things later I can easily narrow my searches to just that subset of annotations; but at the same time I need a way to globally group things together.

      While reading judicial opinions the first activity/mode of interaction with a particular document may be to identify the structure of the judicial opinion (the document attached to this annotation describes the parts of the judicial opinion I might want to identify: *caption, case citation, author, facts of the case, law of the case, disposition, concurring and/or dissenting opinions, etc).

      The above-described mode I may use for multiple documents in one session related to the course syllabus for the week.

      To connect each of these documents together I might add the tags: copyx (my shorthand for the name of the course, CopyrightX), week 1 (how far into the course syllabus), foundations (the subject matter in the syllabus which may span week 1, week 2, etc), judicial opinions (the specific topic I am focused on learning at the moment (may or may not be related to the syllabus).

      Later on another day I might update my existing annotations or add new ones when I am preparing to study for an exam. I might add tags like to study, on midterm, on final to mark areas I need to review.

      After the exam I might add more tags based on my test score, especially focusing on areas that received a poor score so I can study that section more or, if I missed some sections so didn't study and it resulted in a poor score in that area, add tags to study for later if necessary.

      I have many more examples and modes of interaction in mind that I can explain more later, but it all hinges on a rich and flexible tagging system that:

      • allows tagging a document once in a way that applies to all annotations in a document
      • allows tagging a session once in a way that applies to all annotations in all documents connected to a particular session
      • allows tagging a session and/or a document that bundles together new tags added to an annotation (e.g. tags for grammar/spelling, tags for rhetological fallacy classification, etc)
      • fast keyboard-based selection of content
      • batch selection of annotation areas with incremental filling-- I may want to simply select all the parts of a document to annotate first and then increment through each of those placeholders to fill in tags and commentary
      • Mark multiple sections of the document at once to combine into a single annotation
      • Excerpting only parts of a text selection, but still carry the surrounding textual context with the excerpt to easily expose the surrounding context when necessary
      • A summary view of a document that is the result of remixing parts of the original document with both clarifications or self-containing summary re-writes and/or commentary from the reader
      • structural tagging vs content tagging

      Why does he continually tag on references to poets?

    1. Keine geringe Kunst ist schlafen: es thut schon Noth, den ganzen Tag darauf hin zu wachen. Zehn Mal musst du des Tages dich selber überwinden: das macht eine gute Müdigkeit und ist Mohn der Seele. Zehn Mal musst du dich wieder mit dir selber versöhnen; denn Überwindung ist Bitterniss, und schlecht schläft der Unversöhnte. Zehn Wahrheiten musst du des Tages finden: sonst suchst du noch des Nachts nach Wahrheit, und deine Seele blieb hungrig. Zehn Mal musst du lachen am Tage und heiter sein: sonst stört dich der Magen in der Nacht, dieser Vater der Trübsal. Wenige wissen das: aber man muss alle Tugenden haben, um gut zu schlafen. Werde ich falsch Zeugniss reden? Werde ich ehebrechen? Werde ich mich gelüsten lassen meines Nächsten Magd? Das Alles vertrüge sich schlecht mit gutem Schlafe.

      No small art is it to sleep: it is necessary for that purpose (Noth) to keep awake all day. Ten times a day must thou overcome thyself: that causeth wholesome weariness, and is poppy to the soul. Ten times must thou reconcile again with thyself; for overcoming is bitterness, and badly sleep the unreconciled. Ten truths must thou find during the day; otherwise wilt thou seek truth during the night, and thy soul will have been hungry. Ten times must thou laugh during the day, and be cheerful; otherwise thy stomach, the father of affliction, will disturb thee in the night. Few people know it, but one must have all the virtues in order to sleep well. Shall I bear false witness? Shall I commit adultery? Shall I covet my neighbour’s maidservant? All that would ill accord with good sleep.
