Does this mean to include self-distributed add-ons?

So these policies apply to self distributed add-ons too, I suppose. Are they manually reviewed too? What happens if review is rejected in these cases?

Any news?

I would love to see this very figure with number of puzzles attempted on the y-axis instead.

One obvious factor may be that students with a teacher may have attempted more puzzles, and we know that the number of puzzles attempted correlates with the probability of reaching proficiency.

Given that the probability of "reaching proficiency" depends on the number of puzzles attempted, it would be nice to show how this number of puzzles attempted changes with age too.

Available here for CS Fundamentals International (i.e., Courses 1-4 + Accelerated).

Is it available for the newer CS Fundamentals (Courses A-F + Express) too? I couldn't find it, but given that they are still reporting Proficiency in CS Fundamentals in 2019, I would say it is.

It seems impossible to demonstrate proficiency in level 5 of difficulty for both "Repeat Until/While Loop" and "Events" concepts, because there are less than 3 puzzles for each of them.

As described here, CS Fundamentals Course 1-4 + Accelerated (now CS Fundamentals International) was expanded for the 2017-18 school year as CS Fundamentals A-F + Express.

Although Minecraft Hour of Code was released in 2015, no Minecraft activities seem to be available in the original 1-4+Accelerated course, whereas there are some in the newer A-F+Express course.

In both the RSS and the Atom feeds, the link points to the annotation, instead of to the annotation in context. I think it would be more useful if it pointed to the annotation in context. Specially because there is no easy way to go from the annotation to the annotation in context (one has to copy the "share" url and paste it on the address bar).

This confirms that SI should be uploaded separately.

This does not match what it says above of submitting just one PDF file including main text and SI. This leads to think that SI should be uploaded as a separate file.

gImageReader is an excellent open source alternative. It runs both on Windows and Linux, and it provides a simple (yet powerful) frontend GUI to Google's robust open source OCR engine, Tesseract.

I think an open source tool as this is a better fit to the open annotation ecosystem, based on libre software and standards, that Hypothesis promotes, instead of a proprietary (and expensive) tool such as Adobe AcrobatPro.

Climate Feedback group (see here and here) seems to be one of these Restricted Publisher Groups. However, it doesn't seem to be "scoped to a particular domain" (see for example here, here, or here).

Is this a third configuration of Publisher Groups? Or a different kind of groups altogether? Or have these domains been enabled one by one to the Publisher Group scope? Is this behaviour explained somewhere?

In the Privacy Policy document there is an annotation that says:

I decided against using hypothes.is as the commenting system for my blog, since I don't want my readers to be traceable by a third party I choose on their behalf

Alhtough this annotation is a bit old -from 2016- I understand that Hypothes.is server would in fact get information from these readers through HTTP requests, correct? Such as IP address, browser's agent, etc. I wonder whether this is the traceability the annotator was referring to.

Anyway, I think this wouldn't be much different to how an embedded image hosted elsewhere would be displayed on one such site. And Hypothes.is' Privacy Policy states that

This information is collected in a log file and retained for a limited time

It would be nice that it said here that Hypothes.is will notify its users if the Privacy Policy is changed.

As this is written now, it leads me to understand that these cookies can be set by just viewing these annotations on your website; that is without having to go to those other websites. Is that possible? Is that what was meant?

What happened with the original intention of having annotations saved by the Internet Archive? See for example here.

Does this mean that annotations that others have replied to will not be deleted automatically if I choose to delete my account, but that I can delete these replied-to annotations myself, one by one?

What about other annotations (i.e., those which have not been replied to)? Are they deleted automatically when my account is deleted?

Given that it is often the case that one is reading with the sidebar closed, it would be useful if the "<" button used to show the sidebar would be painted in red, for example, if new annotations become available.

Meta-moderation: second level of comment moderation. A user is invited to rate a moderator's decision.

What is the source for this? Protein S, which binds ACE2, has been described in other coronaviruses.

While true, this does not explain why T cells are more sensitive to SARS-CoV-2 than to SARS-CoV. It only explains why they are not infected by SARS-CoV.

In the paper they speculate that "the S protein of SARS-CoV-2 might mediate potent infectivity, even on cells expressing low hACE2" or that "other receptors [may] mediate the entry of SARS-CoV-2 into T cells".

Ssource: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.02.18.20024364v1.

Source: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41423-020-0424-9

Nowhere does the paper say that this is the case. Although the researchers found that SARS-CoV2 does infect T cells, they did not find a link between this and T-cell death and lymphocytopenia: "whether the infection induces apoptosis in T cells still need further research".

This is, at least, irresponsible. If the issue is so sensitive (which in fact is), casting rumours anonymously, without sources, does not help at all.

A syndrome is not a virus. It's a syndrome. SARS is the syndrome caused by SARS-COV. Researchers did the same experiment with SARS-COV

Cause or consequence? Figure 2C shows that T-cell levels rise with infection decline.

This could be a good argument to push Hypothes.is to introduce some sort of moderation, in combination with the finding that annotation threads would be rare, and not very deep (Wolfe & Neuwirth, 2001)

It was taken down because they couldn't find a way to make it sustainable. In addition, it suffered pressure from a group of independent web hosts which likened the service to "web graffiti". See Wikipedia's article on Web Annotation.

In the abstract, the study cited points to "dual-task effects of fulfilling the assignment and working with the computer resulting in a higher cognitive workload".

Although this load may decrease with people getting more and more familiar with computers (and computers getting more and more intuitive), it is also the case that more distractors are available too.

This reminds me of a webinar hosted by Hypothesis in which Amanda Licastro mentioned Cathy Davidson's book "Now you see it" to talk about "Productive Multitasking". In the view that Amanda presented (at least what I understood of what she said), multitasking and distractions are unavoidable, but we can canalize them productively through web annotation, for example -instead of switching to Facebook and disconnect from what we were reading.

Intenté dejar este comentario, pero no aparece, y no sé si quizá el autor tenga que autorizarlo, o tal vez el formulario no funcione correctamente.

Es interesante, pero una pena que no tenga opción para exportar las anotaciones contribuidas. Estos modelos de software dependen en parte del hecho que sus usuarios son cautivos. Es decir, si un producto mejor surgiera, muchos usuarios dudarían en migrar, porque ya han invertido mucho en la plataforma cerrada, y no pueden recuperar lo que les pertenece y llevarlo a la nueva plataforma. Lo único que se menciona en los términos y condiciones de Glose es que si uno tiene una cuenta en Glose Education y quiere transferir sus contribuciones a una cuenta estándar, ellos harán "su mejor esfuerzo" para hacerlo (?).

Este tipo de trampas son viejas y como usuarios creo que debemos evitarlas y hacerlas caer (o, idealmente, cambiar). Qué pasaría si un día Glose decidiera (o se viera obligada a) cerrar? Es inadmisible perder tanto trabajo de tantos lectores.

Because Firefox does not allow content scripts on the built-in pdf viewer.

How easier would it be if the same thing happened with science journals.

Only 8 of the 16 studies which met the inclusion criteria were experimental or quasi experimental.

But do this entities have to be central, monolithic? Can't they be distributed, collaborative?

I usually like to think of the reddit model as a proposal for moderation of web annotation. Reddit is quite flexible as of what it is allowed and what it is not (this has, of course, brought heated debates in the past). But reddit has multiple reddits (as web annotation may have multiple groups or sublayers), each with a set of rules, administered and moderated by one or more people.

Do you like the moderation rules of one subreddit? You can join and even help with moderation. You don't like them? Then don't join and find another one you feel more comfortable with.

This script can be easily circumvented with uBlock or similar. Just add a rule that forbids this script from loading. One simple rule is as follows (I guess there must be neater ways to doing it):

It's fun (?) that a few months before Nate Angell published in the Hypothesis' blog that Hypothesis was doing pretty well with the Audrey Watters' Test for Educational Technology.

Audrey Watters blocked Genius and Hypothesis from her blog on Apr 2017: http://hackeducation.com/2017/04/26/no-annotations-thanks-bye

There were discussions about opt-out mechanisms in the Web Annotation Working group (see here), but in the end it was decided that further work would be deferred to to a future version of the specifications.

CC0 Public Domain Dedications?

The practice of creating and perpetuating inequities between already marginalized groups specifically through the use of digital technologies, digital content, and the internet (Wikipedia).

As far as I know, the CC0 Public Domain Dedication under which public annotations in Hypothesis are released, does not enforce attribution. Although Hypothesis supports Creative Commons' Public Domain Guidelines, which suggest that credit should be given when the author is known, these guidelines are voluntary and non binding. Do you know why Hypothesis has decided to have annotations released under CC0 Public Domain Declaration, instead of CC-BY license?

Hi, Remi! Do you know of any agreements as of how to cite web annotations? Thanks!

There is a widely annotated version here.

It'd be nice if the blog post said when it was published.

This is wrong: not all of them where experimental/quasi-experimental.

Cognitive load of social annotation

A Microsoft's researcher talking about DRM as "restrictive policies".

Is a good practice for hypothesis to make personal annotations first, when reading, without carefully thinking of them too much, and then, once reading is over, go back to the annotations and see which are relevant to make public and polish them a bit?

But one thing is to share personal annotations, and another thing is to start annotations as a shared thing.

I definitely do not understand the logic used to get from the premises to the conclusion here

And then it came Facebook...

no disc lies on top of a smaller disc

But is there something exceptional about the societies we have built? And the culture (including everything: chairs, tables, houses, streets, etc, etc) that surrounds us? I mean: is consciousness something that we have as individuals? Or is is something collective that we feel individually? Like a node in a vast network that gets a feeling of the local consciousness that the whole network has, and feels as if it is his/her own consciousness...

Where it says "ants" I guess it should say "colonies" or "groups of ants". Is a neuron the same as a brain?

Readers, he says, are the real -hidden- value of books.

But there are (and I think there were when this article was written) ebooks out there and, still, most people (true?) prefer printed books.

Qué quiere decir esto exactamente?

For example, I think one could sum the highlight in each specific section. If many people highlighted a passage, then the highlight color is higher. That way one would be able to discover passages that many people found important/interesting. Although, it may also bias others to do the same. As usual.

Interesting that she defined the task of specifying exactly where the annotation starts and where it ends as an overhead

This ability is clearly reflected in 2017's W3C Web Annotation standard

This is of course obsolete now, with the pupularity and widespread availability of touch screens.

This is in clear opposition to the ideas of Brust and Rothkugel in their 2007's "On Anomalies in Annotation Systems", where they claim that "a new annotation system is doomed to fail if it is based on the pen-and-paper annotation paradigm only".

More info here: https://www.w3.org/wiki/Foaf+ssl/HOWTO

Turtle, the Terse RDF Triple Language, is a concrete syntax for RDF. So you can't just add this to the RDF FOAF file you got above. You have to add this following the RDF way. See sample here: https://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/webid/wiki/WebID_by_examples#RDF.2FXML

To get the modulus, do openssl x509 -noout -modulus -in selfsigned.crt

This service outputs an RDF FOAF

"if they have their own personal datastore to save them to". Can readers see each other's annotations?

It would be nice that the annotations that I left here were shown there too.

As it is, it looks like it refers to science of the web. Not to scientific practices in a web-like way (which seems to be the goal of the Linked Resarch project).

So it necessarily starts with one of the song options provided by the platform. Users don't seem to be able to provide their own "seeds".

I don't see how this is not possible with the annotation systems that already existed at that time.

This sounds to me like too much in terms of privacy.

But an online annotation system based on pen and paper practices brings at least two vantage points:

1) the ability to annotate documents which usually wouldn't be printed (maybe because they are not so long or relevant to do so, or because the reader prefers not to do so), and

2) the ability to share annotations and collaboratively work with them.

Wouldn't these two characteristics be enough to make readers move from pen and paper to online annotation?

Although this may be an interesting proposal for future annotation systems, I don't think this can explain why although most learning material is available in digital form, people still prefer pen and paper; or why they use bookmarks, email messages, etc, instead of one of the existing annotation services. The ability to capture movements, etc is not available either in pen and paper or bookmarking, etc practices.

I don't understand why this is an anomaly of annotation systems.

I don't understand how this is derived from the fact that learners have to use several annotation services.

The comment was (translated to English):

It is impossible to separate a cube into two cubes, or a fourth power into two fourth powers, or in general, any power higher than the second, into two like powers. I have discovered a truly marvelous proof of this, which this margin is too narrow to contain.

Although the paper cited at the end of the following sentence has a section "Related work" listing several previous web annotation tools.

The traditional, hierarchical storage paradigms remind me of the old web directories, such as Yahoo Directory.

In a platform where one of the main values is collaboration, how important is it that these platforms guarantee that the user will be able to backup his/her data in case he/she wants (or is forced to) move out? Shouldn't this platforms also guarantee that one would be able to download ALL public data (or data the specific user has access to) to make sure he/she will be able to recreate the whole thing if he/she wants (or is forced) to?

You also have to enable the gui in boot settings

This is absurd. Precisely, having approved a recommendation for EME is exactly the opposite thing to do to persuade the industry to give up DRM on the web!

But this assumes that the main interest is copyright and not, as the EFF has pointed out, crashing competition and prosecuting security researchers. In fact, now Spotify's web player only runs with DRM enabled.

This sounds a bit naive to me. Who would buy those set-top boxes and game consoles? And do not only consider the United States' and European markets. Wouldn't the large content providers have to adapt to how the web works if they want to reach a broader audience?

Now that the w3c has recommended eme, Is this possible?

I was also getting a

If you are getting "can't decompress data; zlib not available", install zlib (e.g., "sudo apt install zlib1g-dev")

How!?

security?

Apparently, this is not available in content scripts (only background script).

In the Hypothesis client, this is handled differently. When the login process is started, a listener is configured in the window which launched the login popup to wait for a message. In the login popup, when the login has succeeded, a page is loaded which runs a JavaScript that sends a message to the window that launched the popup. This is because the OAuth server is reached with the response_mode=web_message parameter.

Why "in the future"?

If I do make dev, boot.js is not minified and Firefox (74.0) fails with "Script returned non-structured-clonable data". Chrome doesn't fail, though. If I run yarn build instead, boot.js is minified and Firefox doesn't fail.

So this would be the metadata for the service class
