And when you’re part of a large, multi-generational Italian-American family with roots in the same city for hundreds of years, you start to collect not just your own things but all of the things from all of the relatives who’ve passed over the years. Because, you know, “antiques.”

Wikipedia says that “information, in its most restricted technical sense, is a sequence of symbols that can be interpreted as a message.” The characters of the text you’re reading form words — the message. The words represent concepts — the meaning. And now that we have a shared understanding of what we really mean when I use the word concept, we can begin to explore how they might be better leveraged in the architecture of your knowledge base. That is to say, how they might be named and then formally classified and organized, because of their meaning, or informally, to create new meaning, and strategically (such as to influence your own behavior).In my next post, we’re going to go further with this, so if you’re interested, I hope you’ll follow me and stay tuned.[1] Rand, Ayn. Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology: Expanded Second Edition, Chapter 7 — The story of the crows was said by Ayn Rand to have been originally told by a university classroom professor of psychology.

கரு சிறுகதையிலும், சிவம் சிறுகதையிலும் ஒரு யுகமுடிவென்பது அதீத வளர்ச்சியினால் வரும் என்ற ஒரு கருத்தும், விஷ்ணுபுரம் என்னும் புனைவு நகரத்தின் அழிவும்,வெண்முரசின் இறுதிப் போரும் கூட அத்தகைய முடிவுகள் தான். பின்னும் நம் இந்திய வரலாற்றில் மிகப் பெரும் சாம்ராஜ்ஜியங்கள் அழிந்ததும் இத்தகைய அதீத சமமின்மையால் தான். குறளினிது உரையில் நீங்கள் சொல்வது போல “அழுதாற்றித் தொழுத கண்ணீரால்” அழிந்த சோவியத்தையும் இந்தப் பட்டியலில் பொருத்தலாம்.

அறிவியலில் WIND -ஐப் பற்றிச் சொல்லும்போது “THE MOVEMENT OF AIR FROM HIGH PRESSURE TO LOW PRESSURE AREA IS CALLED WIND” என்கிறார்கள். தமிழில் AIR என்பதைக் காற்று எனவும், WIND என்பதை வீசும் காற்று எனவும் கூறுகிறார்கள். காற்று வீசினால் தான் நம்மால் அதை உணர முடியும். அப்படி அது வீசுவதற்கு அதிக அழுத்தத்திலிருந்து குறைந்த அழுத்தத்தை நோக்கிச் செல்ல வேண்டும். ஒரு வகையான அழுத்த/ வெப்ப மாறுபாடுகளால் மட்டுமே காற்று வீசுகிறது. இந்த வீசும் காற்றே பூமியைச் சுற்றி ஒரு அழுத்த பெல்ட்டை உருவாக்கி அதை ஓர் உயிருள்ள கோளமாக மாற்றுகிறது. இங்கிருந்து ஒரு சிந்தனையை அடைந்தேன். இந்த உலகம் ஒரு சமமின்மையால் தான் உயிர்ப்புடன் இருக்கிறதோ என்ற எண்ணம் வந்தது.

In addition to local intelligence and favourable terrain, Pulakeshin had access to the tanks of the ancient world. Elephants. These deadly creatures possessed the mass and sheer shock value needed to break almost any immobile enemy formation sent against them.

SIPs are a mode of investment. You don’t invest in an SIP

consider the benefit that SIPs are the solution to investing at the wrong time. Yes, SIPs help reduce the risk of investing at highs when stocks are peaking, as SIPs allow investing at different NAVs and market levels. But, this often gets twisted into the belief that SIPs prevent losses or that they ensure high returns.

Highlights (yellow): great for noting down any phrases that are especially clever or beautiful. We also use them for sentences that capture the crux of an argument. You can then use these highlights as fertiliser if you choose to make HQ&A Notes later.

Timing of food intake can rewire temporal coordination of metabolism and gene expression and thereby modify disease progression

ending conversations is a classic “coordination problem” that humans are unable to solve because doing so requires information that they normally keep from each other. As a result, most conversations appear to end when no one wants them to.

Growth in India’s exports worldwide has also pushed up the need for many crucial intermediate inputs

integrated circuits were up by 147%, laptops and personal computers by 77%, and oxygen therapy apparatus by more than fourfold.

Elections seemed to bring out the worst rather than the best in people.

Over the past 40 years, two people have stood out for their fixation on what Forbes estimates their net worth to be: Prince Alwaleed bin Talal and President Donald J. Trump. This year, Kanye West joins that vainglorious trinity. Over the past few months, he has steadily taken his complaints up the Forbes editorial ladder (“you’re snubbing me and avoiding the truth at all cost”) while publicly waxing for the validation. “When people say it’s crass to call yourself a billionaire, I might legally change my name to Christian Genius Billionaire Kanye West for a year until y’all understand exactly what it is,” West explained in November. “It will be on the license plate.”

There was nothing interest-ing on —it was around 3 a.m. when this was happening, meaning my choices were either (a) softcore porn on whatever cable station it was that was playing softcore porn at that moment, or (b) The Big Bang Theory, which sounds like softcore porn but most assuredly is not1— and so I turned on The Office on Netflix.

I heard again from Fanny Noyce, saying that she had heard from Miss Capper, who by a letter from Mrs. Darling understood that Mrs. Griffiths had expressed herself in a letter to Mrs. Darling

Let me feel your ankle. That's right; all right and clean

My appetite is very much mended, I assure you, lately. I have been taking some bitters of my own decocting, which have done wonders. Susan never eats, I grant you

You will never hear me advocating those puerile emanations which detail nothing but discordant principles incapable of amalgamation, or those vapid tissues of ordinary occurrences, from which no useful deductions can be drawn.

Yes, my dear, and it is not the only kind thing I have done by him

nor can any woman be a fair judge of what a man may be propelled to say, write or do by the sovereign impulses of illimitable ardour

rather commonplace perhaps, but doing very well from the lips of a handsome Sir Edward

Among other points of moralising reflection which the sight of this tête-à-tête produced, Charlotte could not but think of the extreme difficulty which secret lovers must have in finding a proper spot for their stolen interviews. Here perhaps they had thought themselves so perfectly secure from observation; the whole field open before them, a steep bank and pales never crossed by the foot of man at their back, and a great thickness of air to aid them as well! Yet here she had seen them. They were really ill-used.

It was impossible not to feel him hardly used: to be obliged to stand back in his own house and see the best place by the fire constantly occupied by Sir Harry Denham.

Lady Denham can give, if she is properly attacked

But since you are so very neighbourly, I believe Miss Clara and I must stay

Our ancestors, you know, always built in a hole

Who can endure a cabbage bed in October

For, passing by the actual daughters of the house, she had chosen Clara

the politic and lucky cousins, who seemed always to have a spy on her

as prudently as possible to defy the reputed expensiveness of such a home, and at the end of three days calling for her bill that she might judge of her state. Its amount was such as determined her on staying not another hour in the house, and she was preparing in all the anger and perturbation of her belief

Though now and then, a littleness will appear. She cannot look forward quite as I would have her and takes alarm at a trifling present expense without considering what returns it will make her in a year or two.

she remained equally useless.

All that he understood of himself, he readily told, for he was very open-hearted; and where he might be himself in the dark, his conversation was still giving information, to such of the Heywoods as could observe.

What in the name of common sense is to recommend Brinshore?

Not a shilling do I receive from the Denham estate. Sir Edward has no payments to make me. He don't stand uppermost, believe me. It is I that help him."

I am sorry to have the appearance of contradicting you, but from the extent of the parish or some other cause you may not be aware of the fact.

There, I fancy, lies my cure—" pointing to the neat-looking end of a cottage, which was seen romantically situated among wood on a high eminence at some little distance—"Does not that promise to be the very place?"

And even Mr. Arthur Parker, though little disposed for supernumerary exertion, always quitted the Terrace in his way to his brother's by this corner house, for the sake of a glimpse of the Miss Beauforts, though it was half a quarter of a mile round about and added two steps to the ascent of the hill.

There, with the hire of a harp for one and the purchase of some drawing paper for the other, and all the finery they could already command, they meant to be very economical, very elegant and very secluded; with the hope, on Miss Beaufort's side, of praise and celebrity from all who walked within the sound of her instrument

They had tolerable complections, showy figures, an upright decided carriage and an assured look; they were very accomplished and very ignorant

Of these three, and indeed of all, Miss Lambe was beyond comparison the most important and precious, as she paid in proportion to her fortune.

"I hope you will eat some of this toast," said he. "I reckon myself a very good toaster.

I am very subject to perspiration, and there cannot be a surer sign of nervousness."

As far as I can understand what nervous complaints are, I have a great idea of the efficacy of air and exercise for them—daily, regular exercise—and I should recommend rather more of it to you than I suspect you are in the habit of taking.

The more wine I drink in moderation the better I am.

The Text (if only by its frequent 'unreadability) decants the work (the work permitting) from its consumption and gathers it up as play, activity, production, practice.

When we remove the spin words and replace them with more objective language, these sentences become something like: Google has fired the employee who authored a memo about diversity Not as emotionally charged, right?

Bears den in a variety of places.  If you suspect something is a den, look for a bed of leaves, although not all bears make beds if they den after snow has fallen.  To be sure a bear used a leafy bed, look for a depression 2-4 feet in diameter.  Dampen your hand on the forest floor and rub it around on the leaves to see if any dark hair sticks to it.

Have you ever thought about how that cat picture actually gets from a server in Oregon to your PC in London? We’re not simply talking about the wonders of TCP/IP or pervasive Wi-Fi hotspots, though those are vitally important as well. No, we’re talking about the big infrastructure: the huge submarine cables, the vast landing sites and data centres with their massively redundant power systems, and the elephantine, labyrinthine last-mile networks that actually hook billions of us to the Internet.
