This implies a cosmolocal strategy: - horizontal decision-making with local group is local, whilst - vertical decision-making with non-local groups based on broader issues is cosmo - A global Tipping Point Festival that employs social tipping point theory to emerge a global network of citizen assemblies / commons assemblies / people's assemblies in each ward and district of a city to relocate healthy power back to the people

    1. Kurz vor der COP16 zur Biodiversität geht die EU immer deutlicher von ihrer bisherigem Politik zum Schutz der Biodiversität ab. Man nimmt Rücksicht auf konventionelle Landwirt:innen, rechtsradikale und auch zunehmend antiökologisch agierende konservative Parteien. An die Stelle des Green Deal tritt das Bestreben, die Unternehmen im globalen Wettbewerb konkurrenzfähiger zu machen und die Wirtschaft wachsen zu lassen. Ajit Niranjan berichtet zusammenhängend über diese Entwicklungen und verweist auf wichtiger Meilensteine in der Geschichte von Abkommen zum Schutz der Biodiversität. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/oct/09/europe-eu-green-deal-backsliding-nature-biodiversity-farmers-far-right-cop16-aoe

    1. On many occasions, I've opened up requests for support in the form of a Github pull request. This way, I am telling the author: I have found a potential problem with your library, here is how I fixed it for my circumstance, here is the code I used for reference. You get extra internet points if you open the pull request with: "I don't expect this pull request to get merged, but I wanted to you show you what I did".

    1. But share buybacks are also increasingly under fire. President Joe Biden, a frequent critic of share repurchases, included a 1% tax on share repurchases in the Inflation Reduction Act passed by Democrats in Congress last year.
    2. The $11.8 billion mistake that led to Bed, Bath & Beyond’s demise by Chris Isidore

      Share repurchases of $11.8 billion since 2004 may have led to the downfall and ultimate bankruptcy of Bed, Bath, & Beyond.

    3. Share repurchases are a way for companies to return cash to shareholders indirectly, without them having to pay taxes as they would on a stock dividend. The idea is that by reducing the number of shares outstanding, each remaining share of stock in the hands of investors becomes more valuable.

    1. Publishers can create interactive stories on the platform and incorporate them in their website.

      I love this! It is similar to Prezi or VoiceThread.

      Do you also support collaborative editing (public or with invited collaborators)? If yes, a high-resolution world map could be used for collaborative pinning of local events, meetups, news, videos, and so on, such as radio.garden or YouTube Geofind.

    1. Obsidian 里有个叫 Flashcards 的插件,完美解决了这个问题。可能最开始的安装和设置需要一点时间,不过插件的作者给出的流程非常地清晰,即便是第一次使用也能很快安装好。Flashcard 作者给出的安装流程安装好后,在需要导入 Anki 的内容后添加一个 #flashcard 的标签,然后点击侧面的 Generate flashcards 按钮,当前文档中所有加了标签的内容就被一键导入到了 Anki 中。这使得, 制作一张(或数张)卡片的操作成本大约只是一次鼠标点击。从 Obsidian 到 Anki现在市面上的双链笔记软件非常多,我选择 Obsidian 很大程度上就是因为它可以 Anki 无缝互联。而且二者都支持 LaTeX,理科中的公式也可以非常方便地记录。在使用过程中我最喜欢的一点就是,Obsidian 中的双链接在 Anki 中也可以打开。复习到相关概念时,只要点一下双链接,就可以从 Anki 跳回 Obsidian。从 Anki 到 Obsidian上面的操作在手机上也可以别无二致地实现。于是,学习就变成了,用大块的时间去拆解那些复杂的东西,把知识点都变成小卡片;用碎片的时间去刷卡片,随时随地完成知识的内化。那么到这里,Obsidian 的操作就说完了。小结一下,为了保持纯粹,我只用它来做如下操作:第二层 - 拆解 & 构造:MOC(Map of Content)第三层 - 原子化:Evergreen Notes第四层 - 关联 & 内化:Anki 卡片

    2. 比如,我们肯定都知道笛卡尔的「我思故我在」这句话,但这句话究竟是什么意思呢?一开始我以为这里的「我」就是「你我他」的那个我,后来发现这实在是错得过于离谱了。后来在阅读 The Great Conversation 这本书的时候我知道了,笛卡尔口中的「我」指的是一个纯粹的、无可怀疑的意识,一个 thinking thing。于是我立刻对这条 Evergreen Note 进行了修改,随着我引用次数的增加,对「我思故我在」的理解也在逐渐加深,相应地这条笔记的内容也在逐渐地发生变化。笛卡尔的「我思故我在」是一个非常重要的命题,不但是笛卡尔哲学的基石,也是整个现代哲学的开端。因此,写了「我思故我在」的 Evergreen Note 就出现在了其他很多笔记里。这就是 Andy 提到的 Evergreen Note 跨时间和跨项目的特点,而正是因为每一条笔记都足够地细碎、足够地原子化,才能够灵活地进行引用,再次回顾和修改也十分方便。现在我们知道了两个概念,MOC 和 Eevegreen Notes,前者是后者的容器。做一个简单的类比:MOC = 卡片盒Evergreen Notes = 卡片盒里的卡片

      最小的卡片是什么?

    3. 上面讲到我对 Obsidian 的定位是思考工具,使用 Obsidan 就是为了更好地辅助我进行学习,学习的过程大致可以分为五个层级:第一层:收集 & 表达第二层:拆解 & 构造第三层:原子化第四层:关联 & 内化第五层:元知识现在,我们终于可以回答「Obsidian 最核心、最纯粹的用法是什么?」这个问题了。我认为 Obsidian 最核心、最纯粹的用法就是去完成二到四层的操作。至于第一层,我会用 Notion 来进行管理,Notion 强大的数据库功能很适合做这个。而第五层元知识的形成需要与现实世界进行长期大量的经验交互,这已经超出了任何学习类软件的作用范畴。

    4. 我最常用的拆解和构造逻辑的方式就是「以问题为线索」。《科学究竟是什么?》这本书想要回答的核心的问题非常明显,就是书的名字。然后在接下来每一个章节中都会回答一个小问题,而这些小问题就是一个学术共同体所面临的共同的问题。比如对于「科学真的是从事实中推导出来的吗?」这一问题,赞同的一派是前四个章节介绍的逻辑实证主义,反对的一派则是第五到第七章节中介绍的否证主义。随着阅读的深入,每一个章节的小问题会逐渐聚合,然后你会惊奇地发现,整本书的逻辑结构就被你一点一点地给拆出来了。当然,在阅读的过程中这本书的 MOC 其实经过了非常多次的改动,甚至会有非常大的整体结构上的调整。比如你会看到我在这篇 MOC 的开头写了一个认识论的问题,即「科学辩护的正当性(Legitimacy)」。但是我其实是读到这本书的后半部分的时候才幡然醒悟,意识到原来前半部分是在回答这样的一个问题。于是我才回过头去,在 MOC 的开头添加上了这一问题,相应地对后面的问题也做了一些修改。这种「以问题为线索」的阅读方式十分有趣,好像是在跨时空与作者进行一场对话,时而迷惑、时而灵光闪现,这大概就是阅读的快乐吧。用 MOC 来装 MOC理论上 MOC 也可以用来装 MOC,事实上我也是这么做的。因为,问题可大可小,每一个章节的问题相对于整本书来说是一个小问题,但对于章节中的每一个段落来说就变成了一个大问题。所以,章节也可以当成是一个 MOC,里面装的是更小的问题,和内容更加细分的笔记。理解 MOC 的用法我们只需牢牢把握住 3 点:可以随时进行调整用来链接其他笔记或 MOC类似于没有限制的文件夹

    1. If your site has multiple URLs for the same content, share the page's canonical URL instead of the current URL. Instead of sharing document.location.href, you would check for a canonical URL <meta> tag in the page's <head> and share that. This will provide a better experience to the user. Not only does it avoid redirects, but it also ensures that a shared URL serves the correct user experience for a particular client. For example, if a friend shares a mobile URL and you look at it on a desktop computer, you should see a desktop version:

      let url = document.location.href;
      const canonicalElement = document.querySelector('link[rel=canonical]');
      if (canonicalElement !== null) {
          url = canonicalElement.href;
      }
      navigator.share({url});

    1. They use inclusive language by using no language at all, sometimes the best way to communicate are our actions, this add is meant to be seen by many and people wouldn't understand if there was one language spoken, this lack of language makes the advertisement inclusive of all. Additionally our actions are a honest representation of the people we are and I believe that in a advertisement meant to represent emotions and bonds there is no better language than our purest form of expression, body language.

    2. The advertisement is completely pathos since it tries to form a emotional connection with the viewer by using such emotional and happy scenes, making the viewer remember the happy and good times they had when they were together with the people they held dear or when meeting new people. It wants the viewer to remember the good times they had while drinking a coke and promote the idea that they are missing out on happiness because they are lacking a coke.

    3. Target audience: the target audience is everyone. No matter who you are Coca-Cola tries to connect itself with everyone by forming a close relationship by writing impactful, fun and friendly things on their bottles.

    4. Explicit: Convey to others that forming new bonds and overcoming social barriers and/or cultural walls is very easy, creating a better society.

      Implicit: To promote the consumption of coke by associating coke with family friends and relationships and connecting with their consumers

    5. 0:10 -The older man places a coke on the table and turns it around, the bottle has the word "Friends" inscribed on it. The fact that the bottle has such word inscribed makes the viewer want to buy one since it is a very striking word, it makes you think of home and the people you hold dear.

    6. 0:21 the young man accepts the old mans friend request through the phone, this has never been seen in other advertisement of coke but as times change people change and many friendships and relationships have and are currently being created through the internet , this tells the audience that coke is always adapting to us and that it will always be by our side no matter when.

    7. The way they used men of very different ages represents that coke can break the barrier of time, since it is usually said that the disparity between generations and their way of thinking is not easily overcome. But thanks to the ad we see that Coke Transends this barrier of time creating new never thought possible bonds.

    8. 0:16 we get a top view where the coke is perfectly placed in the middle of the table braking the "wall" that keeps both men apart form each other .

    9. the "Share a Coke" slogan has a strong call to action it is incentivizing the audience to purchase one for the purpose of giving it to another like how you give chocolates to someone important to you on valentines, this would be the same idea.

    10. 0:20 the coke is placed in a way that it is perfectly lighted up and in the mid point between both men this could be said that the coke is braking the ice between them or the cultural wall in between as it is literally the reason why both men start to interact with one another.

    11. This advertisement is also a critique against racism around the world, it implies that no matter who you are, what your background is and the different thoughts and believes you have, we should create new bonds, not destroy them. This is seen by the way the young man quickly develops a friend ship with the older man, with just the simple act of sharing a drink.

    12. The lack of speech is also very note worthy since it gives off the idea that forming new bonds is very simple, such that there is no need to talk. It is a critique to society as it implies that the only thing separating us from having a world where no one is less than others is our ego and our own human complex.

    13. The lighting used in this advertisement is very bright in order to set up the very friendly atmosphere shown in the video, this hooks the viewer since it gives off happiness and good vibes, which people feel more attracted to. It also represents the theme of the ad which is creating and strengthening bonds.

    14. 0:21 both the man and the young man grab the coke, this is symbolic because it is as implying that the man in conveying his emotions and thoughts to the coke before the young man drinks it, when the young man drinks its he sighs and looks at the old man in a more friendly way as if implying that he can now understand him in a more deeper way since he literally drank the old mans thoughts through the coke.

    15. Through out the whole commercial there is no verbal interaction between the old man and the younger one, implying that forming new relationships and meeting new people is very simple to the point that you don't even have to talk. This lack of conversation is also very clever since it can be said that the man is conveying his emotions and feelings to the younger one through the coke as saying that when share a coke you are sharing more than a drink you are sharing emotions

    16. 0:13 the older man makes a facial gesture which conveys to us that he is telling the younger one to "go ahead" and drink the coke, which he is only willing to sheared if the youngest becomes friends with him.

    17. 0:15 the youngest looks at the old man and there is a pause, as if he were thinking about the repercussions of becoming friends with the man, but realizes that there are non.

    18. 0:15 - the music used has a very high pitch and is very fast as implying that the youngest has to make up his mind quickly. This creates suspense on the viewer since it makes us wonder what will he choose, ignore the man or make friends with him.

    19. 0:16 - 0:20 - The music pauses and the youngest grabs his phone, this leaves the view confused on what is happening, they start thinking that he decided on ignoring the old man, which would be very shocking because it would not follow the natural order of mainstream media in where usually they would become friends instantly, this is something unexpected and pulls the viewers attention.

    20. 0:25-0:27 - The music starts playing aging, it has a very repetitive rhythm, each interval is grater than the one before, like if we were approaching the climax of this short interaction between this two men.

    21. 0:28 - the repetitive music is gone and a cheerfully melody is introduced, this melody makes the viewer think that there will be a happy conclusion, which proves to be correct since. the older man receives a text message form the youngest that his friend request has been approved.

    22. 0:37-0:40 - after the youngest drinks the coke he puts it down and a text shows up next to the bottle which reads "share a coke with..." and the label of the bottle which previously said friend changes to dad, dude, bro etc. This implies to the viewer that coke is meant to be shared no only to create bonds with others as seen through the commercial, but it is also used to strengthen bonds between people you hold very close to you, as if implying that when sharing a coke there is no boundaries between people.

    23. 0:01- two men sitting in a train, the train implies that they are from different places traveling somewhere. They have different ethnicities and backgrounds

    1. What a lot of people don't realize is that a source control system is a communication tool. It allows Scarlett to see what other people on the team are doing. With frequent integrations, not just is she alerted right away when there are conflicts, she's also more aware of what everyone is up to, and how the codebase is evolving. We're less like individuals hacking away independently and more like a team working together.

    1. where we were communicating less formally with each other and with the doctor. The best thing about slack is that we are allowed to create different channels for specific topics like ‘Soliya’ and others like ‘Random’ where we were allowed to send random messages about random subjects or thing that you want to share with the group that isn’t related to anything we’re doing in the course. In addition, it also allowed us to send private messages to the doctor where she answered in a very short time and also to others with us in class

      Slack bridges the communication gap between the Ss and the professor outside the classroom unlike the limitations of emailing and its formality giving unlimited chances of discussing any matter

    1. Think-pair-share

      They're used to death, but for good reason. There are few things better than a good TPS for getting students warmed up for discussion. One can even allow the TPS to inform the entire lesson: if the TPS results in a class-generated set of questions or learning objectives, teach from that, or plan to teach from it in the next class session.

    1. Income share agreements could lower costs and improve outcomes by tying loan amounts to objective judgments of how much the student is likely to earn from her degree. Educational quality could also benefit: Investors would presumably advance students money only for schools that were doing a decent job of teaching them. The risks are that some borrowers could end up paying far more under such a scheme than the current plan and that investors might not lend to students they consider too risky.

      The author's counter arguments to Income Share Agreements are not convincing enough for me. They seem abstract and vague.

      I think this "formalizing" of teacher and student experimentation is really important. Ensuring that this newfound knowledge (for better or worse) is shared with colleagues is pivotal.
