association of poverty with progress is the great enigma of our times
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, these web mappers are prioritizing certain things–availability, price, ninety degree angles in street grids–over other things, such as relative size of land masses.
The Internet–and information, more broadly–is always shaped by geography, and in turn shapes geographies. Rather than representing the 'end of geography', the Internet has made geography more important and visible in our everyday lives.
the fact that there are underlying geographic patterns at all is interesting
Rather, it was about how maps can help us gain alternative perspectives on the world.
on the societies, spaces, and places that are being mapped, and from which maps emerge

A spherical or Web Mercator spatial reference system uses mathematical formulas and parameters that are incompatible with and non-compliant to the WGS 84.
by ten Hacken will never bea problem
I thought that ten Hacken's problem was based rather on the assumption of "maximally-specific values", and since features must be maximally-specific, there is a problem saying that "cousins" has the value "gen", since "underspecified" is not maximally specific. One could say that values are "as maximally specific as necessary", but since the cases in 6 require gender marking it is problematic to assume that its plural don't (according to maximal specificity of values)
I showedthat spurious ambiguities arise for a particular analysis of verbal complexes in Germanwhen one resolves the values of a binary feature (flip). This can be avoided by thecomplicated stipulation of a value in certain contexts
It is not quite clear where the feature "FLIP" has been discussed, and what is the connection of FLIP and spurious ambiguities with gender.
littlev
If I am right, little v means in your tree "Voice". I would keep the terminology consistent
She/he is very smart, isn’t she/he?
The point is quite clear, nevertheless I would recommend not to give the options in this way but: She is very smart, isn't she/*he?
PRR
Again, in the past I thought that these terms were describing molecular engines that were quite specific to particular antibody/antigen interactions. Guess not.
all information about phonology, syntax and semantics
f the subject? whose phon, syn, and sem information? It could be interpreted as "all information of the sentence" which is surely not meant in this context.
what it does in GB theory
The use of little nPs (paralell to Little vP) in some minimalist accounts makes possessives and prenominal genitives to subjects/external arguments, i.e. in probably exactly this kind of "more general sense" that you meant for HPSG
In the idiom in (i),Bär‘bear’ actually means a lie and the adjective has to be interpreted accordingly.
It is right that "Bären" is in the scope of "groß", but not necessarily that "Bär" means "a lie". "aufbinden" means "to tell something wrong to so.", "Bär" means then "a story". To some extent, one could say that the idiom is not "einen Bären aufbinden", but only "Bär", taking into account that the meaning of "aufbinden" does not change. That is, the modifier would have scope over the entire idiom.
self-embedding
"Referring to the examples would clarifies the term "self-embedding"
that-Verb
What does "that-Verb" mean?
that-Ver
that-Verb?
licensed by the same construction
I'm not sure if [Subj V [that-S]] and [that Subj V [that-S]] are \"the same construction\". Taken Goldbergs definition of construction, they are actually different in form and also in meaning (cf. illocutive force in embedded sentences). This point would be true if you have 4 clauses, then the 2 constructions in the middle really would have the same form AND meaning.
horizontal loop geometry of the modern state system
Anyone have any clue what this means?

What is meant by "integration" in each of these?

A transaction is valid if it follows the rules of our protocol (e.g. sufficient funds to send, etc). Valid transactions are grouped into blocks. A block is valid if all the transactions in the block are valid. Validators are users with accounts that have bonded coins. We say that a validator has voting power in the amount of the bonded coins. Validators are good if the validator acts according to the protocol. Other validators are considered byzantine . Blocks are proposed and then committed into the blockchain by validators using the consensus algorithm. The network is responsive if transactions that pay sufficient fees get committed in a timely manner.
A few words about what it means for coins to be "bonded" might be helpful here. I wasn't familiar with the concept of surety before reading this and it might have helped me.
Yes, indeed, but that was no answer to the question: nobody asked what was the quality, but what was the nature, of the art, and by what name we were to describe Gorgias.
I'm glad this is here. I began to feel a little lost in the reading, as if I wasn't catching on to the answer and was caught in word-salad. I'm no philosophy buff, so a lot of this is foreign to me.
