"nearby" would make sense if the right-most plot of Fig. 3 shows the first diagonal, which it doesn't.

Or perhaps "nearby", but one of the cameras is upside down.

All in all, quite ambiguous statement.

New basis, right?

Guest users in Moodle - can we make it easier to get them into the space to engage with students? No more boring forums when the community members or guest speakers in a f-2-f class can contribute. What about a Google form for requests? Is there a way to limit guests to only one forum?

what?!

This is likely true for any study system. Then comes my question, how do I balance that flexibility with having some sort of overarching direction and plan? I need to be open to be guided by the Spirit (especially since I don't even have a mission president LOL).

Is it okay to ask stupid questions? What is the consequence of asking a stupid question? How does it affect your interpretation of reality? How does it affect the conversation?

The racial system that was established in the new world was a racial hierarchy. The system worked based on the purity of ones blood. Then it was used as a status for political and social advancement.

How does this creation story differ from the others you have read this week?

In this creation story many people were killed and the others it was peaceful because when humans came to earth they were welcomed by animals or other people offering help until they found somewhere to go.

Does an International legal informatics database exist yet?

Interesting idea. The only thing is that the science is not where we would like it to be. Most of the accusing will need to be done in retrospect. In that case, many will have lost culpability due to insufficient knowledge. I just wonder how this will hold up in a court of law for most practical cases. For some large-scale cases, I can see it working, as long as the effects are enormous.

How will society lessen the characteristics of inequalities when a society wants to destroy liberty?

Why is Sumner so strongly for a completely hands-off economy, does he have something to gain from the increasing wage gap?

Definition of enigma: A person or thing that is mysterious, puzzling, or difficult to understand

Clarification: Some people find it difficult to understand why there is a correlation between poverty and progress

Question: Can there ever be a time when every person benefits from progress?

in other words, if you are black or mixed-race you have to have permission to gather in a group. Did they have permission to gather in churches? Might this be one way they "legally" gathered and help explain the prominence of black churches in the Civil Rights Movement many years later?

Question: what is the best Tag to use when referring to challenges that arise in life - here, Raj, speaks of running into trouble when we begin our thought process apart from conscious Being.

Raj is correcting Paul's Belief, or misconception, regarding reason and thinking.

He also further describes Being.

What does he mean?

The unfolding of Being underlies everything that is and everything that seems to be (even Illusion [what seems to be]??).

You Being has never stopped manifesting Itself as your conscious experience of Being. Cultivate (Practice) this fact so it becomes an integral part of your experience and you will not be sorry.

This is an effective metaphor: what is perceived depends on which end of the binoculars you are looking through.

It is important to be aware of claims that what is false is true so they can be effectively addressed. This is why mindfulness or awareness is such an important component of the journey of awakening.

What tag to use?? An event has arisen that claims Paul is in lack when that is not possible in Truth - only in illusion. How best to tag things like this?

Nice metaphor, but I wonder how well it matches, because sand has inertia and would jump around the surface. Would the metaphor be more accurate if the sand has no inertia and would not jump? I am thinking of marbles being squeezed between two sheets, rolling downwards wherever the sheet is at an angle.

Ok, so it would not be the bird that is immortal, but it's song? The bird sings all over the scale (pitch, tone, etc.), so the song would not be consistent trough time. The feeling upon hearing the birds sound however, may be the repeatable occurrence through the ages.

If all of the space boats travel at the same velocity and the same distance from the Earth's surface, the time shift of the on-board clock due to relativity would be the same. The difference between the clocks would be almost the same. How would the trouble appear?

Paul identifies a problem from his partial view of Being and Raj encourages him to change his perspective.

Be willing to think and respond from what you know Actually to be true rather than to be fooled into believing what you see, hear, taste, smell, and feel is true.

What???? Ignore my experience? Ignore what is coming to me through my physical senses and be willing to act only on a theory - an idea that has not yet been experienced????

Question: We are taught two approaches, one, to live the truth and deny the illusion (5 minutes as Christ), and the other, to feel and embrace what we have always rejected and not wanted to even acknowledge. How does one do this? What does it even mean? The answer comes from living life and finding our way...

Strange, distilled and aged wines do not normally have bubbles formed once poured. The only thing I can think of that would be like a wine and bubbles is champagne. Is this intentionally added?

is this possible with a teaching curriculum?

This reminds me where Raj has shared words to the effect that it is all happening at once.

Raj shares that be able to be aware of 3d and 4d at once means that Paul is not caught in 3d..

The 'change line'..... is this the 'shift' that Wayne Dyer speaks of ?

Did they vary in price or 'clams'? This would show direct variation with the 'value' of these body pieces and the implications it has in terms of racism.

Is the author referring to representation in gameplay or in real life?

Lack of insight from their conclusion is underwhelming. What did they contribute to future researchers in this field of study?

Is this during independent gameplay or two-player? These implications mean different things depending on the goal; are they cheating to beat a competitor or are they cheating for personal gain? And are both these things detrimental to their identity as a 'gamer'?

Makes me think of all the articles on apprenticeship that we read about; what does learning entail? Is it the transfer of problem solving to real world contexts and careers, or are we using the basis of school curriculum? Here the author articulates that they will cover many types of learning and not just a translation to curricular learning.

so what impact does this have on identity, community involvement, learning? so many questions....

I would love to know the answer to that. As someone who grew up not being allowed to play video games (and in turn, I think they're a huge waste of time), I would love to explore this possibility. More over, how do we decide what types of "out of classroom" learning are legitimate? Who decides this? Why is a trip considered immersive and important but a video game seen as a waste of time or not a valuable learning experience?

Is this avatar supposed to be inconspicuous?

are these types of settings similar to playing with Barbies and other dolls?

is it meaningful socializing if they never connect in person? can the relationships ever truly deepen?

until what age is play considered a legitimate type of learning? forever?

This is an example of a time when someone joins a group or attempts LPP but will they ever get there? The hats immediately point out that they are not part of the group, really, and they never could be because of their age. The only way they could be would be by lying, and then even if they were really, really good liars, they would still be illegitimate, right? The only exception would be if they were so good at heir lies that they actually convince themselves that they belong there. Did that make sense...?

like when you're 12 and want braces because all of your friends have them despite having braces being a terrible experience ;)

in all seriousness, if you can't voluntarily participate in what is perceived as a significant communal experience, how do you legitimately participate?

does this change the nature of relationships?

how does this shape identity? If your online personality is different than your in-person personality, how does that change your behavior, how you relate to others, etc?

perhaps it would be worth it to explain to children that adults meeting strangers online is a little different than children given that adults are theoretically able to consent in different ways. I'm thinking about the problem of "stranger danger" online in the same way we think about it in person...

but shouldn't a parent be entitled to "listen in" on their child even if the child disagrees?

In contrast to a private journal passed between two friends at school (I totally did this) -- this option of secret/private communication isn't available to general public audience in the same way an online journal is. It's easier to keep private from parents, too probably. I feel like anyone posting online should know that it can be accessed by anyone so how private can it possibly be?

For Paul, the effect of avoidance is great discomfort. I wonder how this applies to me?

How does situating these connections differ from contextualizing?

This is interesting. How does 'disciplined subjectivity' work?

This is similar to the multisited article in that it acknowledges that learning happens both within multiple setting and across them (and time). It also has me wondering something new that I didn't think of when I read the other paper and that is, how much of this "figuring out" is necessarily conscious? In what ways are we (in every setting) applying/adapting/repurposing knowledge from other settings (CoPs/islands of expertise) in order to be successful in the new setting (and thus to create new knowledge)?

Question: I don't understand what Raj is saying here - playing along with Paul regarding the impending reappearance of Christ...

Question: Hmmm, I wonder where this is going? Seems incorrect from the perspective of the year 2015.

Misconceived theories and concepts are a burden - they are a challenge.

Question: What is this talk of Maitreya and big changes coming?

Being always moves beyond your present concept of Reality.

Revelation is the breakdown of concepts resulting in a new view of Reality. It is the One, Total Function of Being.

Question: is this saying that the function of Being is growth into a more expansive view of Reality? We call this Revelation.

Can someone explain to me why argon is used in these experiments and what they are for? I am working on a science project (I am in the 4th grade). Thank you!

Fear and doubt do not necessarily hinder growth.

Question: Ken asserts that if something is not moving in the direction of his desire, like Tina helping him set up his workshops, that Tina's resistance (his perception of) is actually in him and if he can find it and clear it then the block will be removed for Tina - at least this what I perceive him to be saying. This never resonated with me and I wonder about it.

The physical and social demands of dancing provide the content with which more meta-cognitive skills can be acquired and practiced.

So this kind of "familiarized locale" is a kind of public space and has "ways of being" - which seems different that "ways of being produced"?

So, how would it be considered if I for example use pencil and paper to write down poetry or anything and then I type my diary entries into an electronic device for it to be displayed in digital platform such as a blog? Is it considered to be "born" on paper? Or is it considered to be "e-lit" because despite of the paper based start, it was thought to be published in a digital media?

This is where Nasir would say that a combo of material, relational, and ideational identity resources would enhance connections to the CoP, thus "fueling engagement," right?

So would Nasir say this is an example of ideational identity resources? Mitchell has set a goal for himself, as well as established what he believes is worthy to be learned (what he will hone and apply).

Interesting use of the word "motives" here. Not the word I would use when thinking about participating in a "hobby". How could this be read differently if the word 'goals' replaced it?

You must be willing to stand radically with the Fact... - what is he saying here?

To allow the emotions to arise and to recognize a shift in perception is occurring? To not waste time looking for the cause of the emotions?

Feelings of fear (anxiety, tension, etc) are indications that life is shifting, old beliefs are giving way to new perceptions - evolution is happening.

There is no need to discover the 3d cause of these emotions.

Some of us spend a lot of time identifying the cause of our fearful experience - the first 7 years of life. Raj seems to be saying this is not necessary.

So what's the difference between bar and quux?

What does he mean by this? Read what follows and try to understand what is being shared.

Discuss: What does this mean? Have you experienced an "open door moment" like this?

Observation versus listening-in : one is done intently while the latter is sort of just picked up. Why is it important for the author to emphasize that listening-in is usually against the subjects' will? Does it suggest the types of things these children are learning through listening in shouldn't be learnt?

Is this really a just request?

Is it significant that Helen has no lines? Is she even real, or just an idealized (and thus silent) version of femininity?

what?!

Really important step in identity formation. Can you ever fully identify as something if you and others don't refer to that identity marker?

In other words...peer pressure? And desire to be part of the in-group?

Need a clear definition of "microbe." Presume indirect recognition of PAMPS is via the antibody/antigen mechanism described earlier. Worth asking.

So while we may be told, for example, that blue is for boys and pink is for girls, eventually we will be able to realize that this was just a social construct? And we can make decisions for ourselves?

Does this mean artifacts are the way we can visualize figured worlds? For example, the clothing a person wears is the artifact may be a hint to the figured world this person belongs in?

So it is possible to be placed in a figured world without our own intentions? Then the figured worlds we belong to are not only ones we intentionally belong to, but ones that others believe us to be belonging to?

Can you live any other way?

COMPREHENSION QUESTION

This has proven to be inaccurate. The Colts informed the NFL prior to the game. http://www.businessinsider.com/new-england-patriots-deflategate-balls-indianapolis-colts-2015-5

Further, the Colts players have denied they raised concerns. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/12213533/dqwell-jackson-indianapolis-colts-says-one-noticed-ball-was-inflated

Who then raised the issue during the first half of the game?

Also, Goodell has claimed he was "personally" unaware of the Colts complaint before the game.

Are they threaded, or just a series of comments? That is, do comments form a tree?

What else has this guy researched?

What does it mean to have "infinite ideas"? And how do you arrive at the judgments "enough" and "as good" here?

Ideas don't exist in isolation; they are not individual fruits to be plucked from the world of thought. Ideas are built upon other ideas. They are embedded within each other, juxtaposed one next to the other, stacked, remixed; varied one from the other, sometimes as a derivation, sometimes an inspiration.

And in the face of this, what is the notion of "creation"? Given a certain base of knowledge, there are some natural next steps that can be built from those basic building blocks.

Here we have to disentangle the notion of discovery from creation. I think maybe that, in part, is the notion of patents vs copyright, but in the land of software we seem to have a tangled mess.

Does the notion of intellectual property violate the Lockean Proviso?

Intellectual property cannot be common currency in the intellectual life of the society at the time of propertization.

What constitutes society at this point; do small groups and communities suffice or does it have to be popularly known beyond a small few?

Is there any reasonable agreement about what the term metadata means or includes? For example, how important is the unit of measure to scientists (feet vs meters) and is that information considered metadata or simply an implied part inherent in the data itself?

The most important take-away I see in this whole section on reasons for not making data electronically available is not mentioned here directly!

Here are the raw numbers for I am satisfied with my ability to integrate data from disparate sources to address research questions:

• 156 (12.2%) Agree Strongly
• 419 (32.7%) Agree Somewhat
• 363 (28.3%) Neither Agree nor Disagree
• 275 (21.5%) Disagree Somewhat
• 069 (05.4%) Disagree Strongly

Of the people who are not satisfied in some way, how many of those think current data sharing mechanisms are sufficient for their needs?

Of the ~5% of people who are strongly dissatisfied, how many of those are willing to spend time, energy, and money on new sharing mechanisms, especially ones that are not yet proven? If they are willing to do so, then what measurable result or impact will the new mechanism have over the status quo?

Who feel that current sharing mechanisms stand in the way of publications, tenure, promotion, or being cited?

Of those who are dissatisfied, how many have existing investment in infrastructure versus those who are new and will be investing versus those who cannot invest in old or new?

10 years ago how would you have convinced someone they need an iPad or Android smartphone?

What are the "several basic elements?"

For those who do not feel they have data that merits curation I would at least like to hear a description of the kinds of data they have and why they feel it does not need to be curated?

For some people they may already be using well-curated data sets; on the other hand there are some people who feel their data may not be useful to anyone outside their own research group, so there is no need to curate the data for use by anyone else even though under some definition of "curation" there may be important unmet curation needs for internal-use only that may be visible only to grad students or researchers who work with the data hands-on daily.

UPDATE: My question is essentially answered here: https://hypothes.is/a/xBpqzIGTRaGCSmc_GaCsrw

This answers my previous question about this survey item:

https://hypothes.is/a/QrDAnmV8Tm-EkDuHuknS2A

Great observation!

For those that identify themselves as personally responsible would they identify themselves (or their group) as the only ones responsible for the data? Or is there a belief that the institution should also be responsible in some way in addition to themselves?

In my mind this is a key challenge: even if people can describe what they need for themselves (that in itself is a very hard problem), what to do from the infrastructure standpoint to implement services that aid the individual researcher and also aid collaboration across individuals in the same domain, as well as across domains and institutions... in a long-term sustainable way is not obvious.

In essence... how do we translate needs that we don't yet fully understand into infrastructure with low barrier to adoption, use, and collaboration?

If thriving is a metric (is it measurable? too subjective?) of success then the 3 characteristics it must have are:

• modularity: divisible into components
• granularity: fine-grained modularity
• integrability: low-cost integration of contributions

I don't dispute that these characteristics are needed, but they are too general to be helpful, so I propose that we look at these three characteristics through the lens of the type of contributor we are seeking to motivate.

How do these characteristics inform what we should focus on to remove barriers to collaboration for each of these contributor-types?

Below I've made up a rough list of lenses. Maybe you have links or references that have already made these classifications better than I have... if so, share them!

Roughly here are the classifications of the types of relationships to open source projects that I commonly see:

• core developers: either hired by a company, foundation, or some entity to work on the project. These people care most about integrability.

• ecosystem contributors: someone either self-motivated or who receives a reward via some mechanism outside the institution that funds the core developers (e.g. reputation, portfolio for future job prospects, tools and platforms that support a consulting business, etc). These people care most about modularity.

• feature-driven contributors: The project is useful out-of-the-box for these people and rather than build their own tool from scratch they see that it is possible for the tool to work they way they want by merely contributing code or at least a feature-request based on their idea. These people care most about granularity.

The above lenses fit the characteristics outlined in the article, but below are other contributor-types that don't directly care about these characteristics.

• the funder: a company, foundation, crowd, or some other funding body that directly funds the core developers to work on the project for hire.

• consumer contributors: This class of people might not even be aware that they are contributors, but simply using the project returns direct benefits through logs and other instrumented uses of the tool to generate data that can be used to improve the project.

• knowledge-driven contributors: These contributors are most likely closest to the ecosystem contributors, maybe even a sub-species of those, that contribute to documentation and learning the system; they may be less-skilled at coding, but still serve a valuable part of the community even if they are not committing to the core code base.

• failure-driven contributors: A primary source of bug reports and may also be any one of the other lenses.

What other lenses might be useful to look through? What characteristics are we missing? How can we reduce barriers to contribution for each of these contributor types?

I feel that there are plenty of motivations... but what barriers exist and what motivations are sufficient for enough people to be willing to surmount those barriers? I think it may be easier to focus on the barriers to make contributing less painful for the already-convinced, than to think about the motivators for those needing to be convinced-- I think the consumer contributors are some of the very best suited to convince the unconvinced; our job should be to remove the barriers for people at each stage of community we are trying to build.

A note to the awesome folks at Hypothes.is who are reading our consumer contributions... given the current state of the hypothes.is project, what class of contributors are you most in need of?

Output of the project:

• analysis package written in R
• step-by-step hands-on manual
• make tools available to a broad, international community
• software made publicly available

Question: What software license will be used? The Apache software license is potentially a good choice here because it is a strong open source license supported by a wide range of communities with few obligations or barriers to access/use which supports the goal of a broad international audience.

Question: Will the data be made available under a license, as well? Maybe a CC license of some sort?

Are there examples of this kind of data product at scale?

How often does it update now?

two lives or one? Also, what about two names? A public name and a private name, as some cultures already have where only your friends call you by a certain name that others might not know.
