    1. And a third of this country’s adult population—over 70 million Americans—has a record on file with criminal justice agencies.4Close That is important because, although the rise of “mass incarceration” receives the most attention, no one is incarcerated without first having contact with the police. Police contact is the feeder mechanism into the broader criminal justice system, whether or not you are ever arrested, charged, or convicted.

    1. Me interesa especialmente la reflexión de Krysinski sobre el principio del montaje en la novela moderna debido a que refleja algunos rasgos característicos de la novelística de Julieta Campos. Dentro de dicho principio subsiste el dialogismo, aunque tal vez se oriente más hacia lo dialéctico que hacia lo propiamente dialógico. El montaje implica la organización individual del discurso y su función sería la de producir un impacto cognitivo, una «toma de conciencia». Adquiere especial relieve el metadiscurso cognitivo del narrador, quien manipula las formas, las voces, los discursos, las narraciones, lo mismo que las estructuras para-literarias. Pueden formar parte del montaje todo tipo de materiales: históricos, citas de periódicos, comentarios, etc. El autor asume la función de compilador y su papel es el de estimular un efecto dialéctico mediante la manifestación de las estructuras puestas en juego. Por otra parte, la importancia del diálogo en la novela moderna se debe a que el narrador busca auto-expresarse, auto-comunicarse y auto-conocerse.

      ¿Quién es Krysinski? ¿Qué entiendes por dialogismo? ¿Qué entiendes por dialógico? ¿Qué diferencia encuentras entre los dos?

    2. ¿Cuáles son los aportes del concepto de intertextualidad a la teoría literaria? ¿Qué cambia con el viraje del modelo de intertextualidad al del dialogismo para el concepto de autor? Si, según Bajtín, el dialogismo implica la inclusión de la voz del otro, ¿por qué la intertextualidad se considera equivalente al dialogismo?

    1. “If everything is an archive, what meaning does the word have? What is so great about being an archive? Why have we given the word such power?”

      What makes something truly worthy of being preserved and recognized as history?

    2. In the face of this guilt-inducing backlog, special collections have turned towards digitization as a solution, prioritizing getting images of Black people online and hoping that will be enough.

      Putting things online doesn’t automatically fix the problem. It might look like progress, but if there’s no real explanation or context, people still won’t understand what they’re looking at or why it matters. Just uploading images isn’t the same as making history truly accessible.

    3. Academics continuously loosen the concept of the archives in vigorous debate and flowery speech, while hundreds of linear feet of Black history are stacked in secure shelving, unbeknownst and inaccessible to implicated communities.

      This part highlights the disconnect between theory and reality. Scholars debate what an archive means, but real Black historical materials are sitting on shelves and not accessible to the communities they belong to. It shows how discussion does not always translate into action.

    4. Given the size of many archival collections, only the most important materials can be described at item-level

      This made me wonder how archives decide what’s “important.” She says only “important” items get detailed descriptions. That means archivists decide what gets more attention. If something isn’t described well, people might never find it.

    5. Who is this for?,

      I like this question, because it makes me think about the fact htat archival rules seem designed to make institutions run smoothly, not necessarily to help the communities represented in the records.

    6. If everything is digitized, regardless of metadata or image quality, the resulting hoard would solve a host of issues.

      She’s questioning the idea that putting things online automatically fixes access problems. Just uploading images doesn’t fix things like racism or bad systems.

    1. Thus the profound changes begun in 1769 continue to echointo the present

      discussed in class - it is a key point in history - changed the path of things 1769 - start of Cali missions 1869 - the year the railroad connected Cali to the rest of the country - two events that expeditated the growth of Cali.

      Tidbits: - oranges, grapes, horses, cows - all came to Cali. via the Spanish (Cows brought up from Baja.) - there is agriculture before the Spanish but the variety of crops that Cali is now famous for traces back to the Spanish. - student comments on how the water changes may have affected crops (the distribution of water and its movement) -> Gastil disagrees as Spanish did not make any aqueducts or anything. They did make some dams, some aquifers.

    2. Missions

      Differences between "Indian schools" and Missions: - Observation: missions allowed for expression and preservation of culture (though it blended with European culture)

    3. In 1542, an expedition led by the Portuguese navigator Juan Rodríguez Cabrilloset sail from Navidad on the northwest coast of Mexico to explore the northernterritories

      Cabrillo

      • Conquistador
      • very different from Vizcaino
      • protégé of Cortez
      • abusive???
      • San Miguel Bay -> Mt. Miguel High
    4. Father Junípero Serra

      Father Serra - short and bald, very charismatic - 'moved people,' a gifted preacher; had followers and taught other priests - speaking to physicality: walked thousands of miles. a martyr. endurance. - lived here for 15 years. contributed to the building of 9 missions in those years.

      • was still a colonizer, did contribute to behavior (abuse and death of NAs). but still wanted to love a life according to God. modeling himself after GOD
      • "Most idealistic man" - Gastil There is a need to discuss Serra carefully. He contributed greatly but he was still part of the problem. You have to acknowledge both! Acknowledge the nuance.
      • judge actions within the time.

      add to other notes later: - Wintu and Shasta not within mission system - tribes outside: were wiped out during gold rush era - mission system helped tribes survive the times (in the long run) - does not excuse mission system but they seem to have helped in some respects

    5. Philippines

      Discussed in Class:

      How the Philippines relate to this story: - they were taken over by the Spanish - were separate islands and cultures prior; Spanish collectivized them - Connection to California: both colonized, part of New Spain (New Spanish Empire) - Trade/interaction between Manila port, Mexico port, and the shores of California

    6. Theisland of Queen Calafia is described in the novel as being “at the right hand ofthe Indes” and the early explorers, including Cortés, expected to find it within10 days of sailing off the Mexican coast. Thus the name came to be applied tothe Baja California peninsula

      Interesting! connection to Connecting Cali Gastil

    7. The name “California” probably derives from a European adventure novelpublished in 1500 by the Spaniard Garcí Ordóñez de Montalvo. His book, LasSergas de Esplandián (The Exploits of Esplandián),

      California name origin per Cherny

      supports/connects to Connecting Cali, gastil

    8. political, religious, and military power overthe former Aztecs, their vassals, and outlying tribes was rapid and quiteremarkable

    1. | Tombstone Checkpoint | Mesa Mainstage 2017

      After reading the article "What is implicit bias?" I noticed implicit bias in this case, in the assumption that Latino individuals are “foreign” or suspicious. Though for Enrique this was just one of his experiences, like he mentioned, it is well known to many that bias opinion towards others ethnicity can harm one another both physically and mentally. Implicit bias can be harmful and lead many apart.

      Enrique's stake is a sense of identity as a Mexican American individual and safety when confronted at a border checkpoint. He was cautious and aware of the reality of his scenario. At the end, he showed greater clarity about his own identity and confidence in his voice to speak up. He had shown great change, and even though this experience wasn't pleasant, the ability to continue and speak up about a hurtful issue he was able to persevere after reflecting.

    1. Parliament then passed laws restricting the importation of Indian cotton textiles

      You can tell this is making a foundation for industrialization; making law shape the economy.

    2. pushed his empire

      Ivan IV truly made Moscow into a major empire even though it was just a little principality before. This is an excellent example of good leadership playing a key role in the success of place.

    3. Little Ice Age

      This event shows how history is not just about human decisions. History is about lots of components and conditions that go into even the little events.

    1. The theme I see within this story was self belief that helped motivate her campaign and her self-empowering, resilient mind. There were also challenging expectations, especially with a hard start to trying to speak up in politics as a black woman. Kathi had shown strong virtues of resilience that strengthened her appearance. She grew through risk when she challenged the limits others placed on her, and the ones she placed on herself. Kathi discovered unexpected strength throughout her entire campaign.

      The story centers on a moment where Kathi Kinnear is telling herself what she can’t do. She is limiting her capabilities in her own mind, which is a problem she was facing in the beginning of her hardship. The real stakes are whether she will accept those limitations or challenge them. If she fails to surpass her limitations, she reinforces doubt and dwells in that state of despair. If she succeeds in pushing past her own limits, she reshapes her identity. In the end, Kathi was able to see light through these dark times in her memory and persevere past what once restrained her.

    1. quick analysis.

      Although this type of quick analysis is good, it's not always accurate. We always need to make sure to dig deeper and to see beneath the surface to find the truth.

      this whole section is feeling a little vague for me (it's the only time I felt myself slow down while reading this page) — I would focus more on Venus and Mars as the potential pathfinders to the answers your student seeks, and why you are leaning on them in this immersion a little bit more here. I think grounding this section down with more specifics will help it feel more tangible.

    1. Star has worked to develop ways of understanding how people communicate about infrastructure, and has helped develop research methods aimed to examine the role infrastructure plays in mediated human activitie

      Me hace pensar en las formas de comunicación que actualmente usamos los seres humanos para comunicarnos . Frente al papel que desempeñan las infraestructuras de comunicación, la pregunta que me surge es ¿Cómo estas infraestructuras pueden acercar o alejar las relaciones humanas, es decir, que tan significativo puede ser el grado de comunicación por medio de estas infraestructuras?

    2. In this article, Star and Griesemer analyze the formative years of the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology by expanding the model of interessement developed by Latour and Callon, to form their concept of boundary objects

      ¿Podría esto tener relación con la teoría del actor-Red y la agencia de los objetos? "Actantes"

    7. While doing research with Carl Hewitt about the scientific community's decision-making process as a metaphor for artificial intelligence

      Esto se conecta con el texto de Pasquineli: la genealogía de la IA y la inteligencia comunitaria o social

    8. She taught a variety of subjects including: social analysis of technology and organizations, computers and society, research methods and gender and technology.

      En el tema de género y tecnología, me pregunto si habrá considerado cuáles son las características de una tecnología feminista. Desde mi apreciación, la preoucpación por la materialidad del la infraestructura, sus usos y contextos puede ser profundamente feminista y quizás prefiguró mucho de ese campo

    1. First you search to see if scholars have been writing about this question (textual research). They may have answered it, but most likely, they have not yet come to a firm conclusion. You decide to do some research on your own to try to answer the question.

      Are these the two demonstrations of the Research as Inquiry Framework ?

    1. First phishing. Fishing with an F. There's a way to catch fish using bait like worms. It's fun, except for the worms. Fishing with a Ph isn't fun. It's scary internet stuff. Phishing is a way for bad people to catch your private details, like your bank account number or passwords. The bait they use is lies. Here's how phishing works, say you get an email. It looks like it's from someone you trust, like your bank, but it's not. It tells you to confirm your bank details or your account may be closed. Scary. You click on the link and go to a website. It looks like a real Bank website. But it's not. You enter your details and someone uses them to steal your identity and buy things with your money. Which is not nice. Here's how to be safe from fishing. Number one, your bank will never ask you to confirm your details via an email, like ever. This is the most obvious way to spot a fishing attempt if you receive an email like this, suspecting. Don't click it. Number two, look for your name. Phishing messages say things like, um, dear valued customer. If it doesn't say your name, don't click it. Number three. Look at the URL in your browser browser window if the URL looks like a different name from the name of the company. Don't click it. Number four. Rest your mouse pointer on the link that will show the real web address. If it doesn't look like the proper company name, don't click it. Number five, look for spelling mistakes. If there are any spelling mistakes or the email doesn't look professional? Don't click it. Number six, get security software that includes anti-phishing and identity protection features like Norton 360 or Symantec. Best of all, just don't use links in emails to get to websites like ever. Always type the URL instead. Thank you for looking at our quick guide to scary internet stuff to allow to be safe.

    2. Would it surprise you to learn that millions of computers in the U.S are infected with malware? That's a lot of computers. So, what's malware and why should you care? Malware short for malicious software includes viruses and spyware that get installed on your computer or mobile device without you knowing it. Criminals use malware to steal personal information and commit fraud. For example, they may use malware to steal the login information for your online accounts or to hijack your computer and use it to send spam, an infected computer can lead to serious problems like identity theft. The good news? There's a lot you can do to protect yourself and your your computer. One of the most important steps you can take install security software from a reliable company and set it to update automatically. The bad guys constantly develop new ways to attack your computer, so your software must be up to date to work, set your operating system, and your web browser to update automatically, too. If you're not sure how, use the help function and search for automatic updates. Don't buy security software and response to unexpected calls or messages, especially if they say they scanned your computer and found malware scammers. Send messages like these to trick you into buying worthless software, or worse, downloading malware. What else can you do? Use a pop-up blocker and don't click on links and pop- ups. Don't click on links or open attachments and emails, unless you know what they are. Even if the emails seem to be from friends or family. Download software only from websites you know and trust. Free stuff may sound appealing, but free downloads can hide malware. Make sure your web browser security setting is high enough to detect unauthorized downloads. For example, use at least the medium security setting. Even if you take precautions, malware can find its way onto your computer. So, be on the lookout for these signs. Your computer runs slowly. Drains its battery quickly. Displays, unexpected errors or crashes. It won't shut down or restart. It serves a lot of pop-ups, takes you to web pages you didn't, visit changes your home page, or creates new icons or toolbars without your permission. If you suspect malware, stop doing things that require passwords or personal info. Such as online shopping or banking. Use a different computer, maybe one at work, or at your local library to change your passwords. Update your security software and run a system scan. Delete files that Flags as malware. If you can't fix the problem on your own? Get help from a professional. Your computer manufacturer or internet service provider may offer free tech support. If not, contact a company or retail store that provides tech support. Keep in mind the most important thing you can do to prevent malware is to keep your computer software up to date. And remember, it's easy to find trusted information about computer security

    3. That's why Innovative startups are popping up around the world, solving the security problem with Biometrics. We actually use the vein patterns in your eye. Eye verify discovered that the blood vessels in the whites of your eyes are as unique as the worlds on the tips of your fingers. So the iris, many people know the iris. They expect that to be a good biometric, and it is but actually takes infrared light and an infrared camera. Which phones don't have? We use just an ordinary phone, enter my name. Gosh, this is fast. Done. Eye Verified caught the attention of Samsung Sprint and Wells Fargo. They all invested now. The Kansas City-based company is using that backing to crack two markets where security is Paramount. Number one is Enterprises. The companies want to protect access to their networks. There's a breach like every day, the second one is, you know, broadly, mobile banking or mobile financial Services. According to one forecast by 2019, five, and a half billion people will use Biometric authentication on mobile and wearable devices. MasterCard has been experimenting with biometrics, too, and recently tested an app using voice and facial recognition for 14, 000 e-commerce transactions. MasterCard also invested in Bionam. This Toronto-based startup has developed a wristband, the 79 Nymi that harnesses what may be the most secure Biometric of all your heartbeat. You look at all of the little Peaks and valleys in the shape of that waveform that's unique to you. We've now tied this to you. It's in an active State because it's no, it's still on your rest, right? And now, we can have it do stuff. For example, we can have it unlock a phone. That's the beauty of persistent identity. Imagine how seamless life would be if logging onto your email, unlocking your car, or checking into a flight where as easy as strapping on a wristband and verifying your ECG. The device does the rest is binary to kill the password. I don't know if you use that word too much, but probably.

    4. If you've done this, accessing credit card through your fingerprint, you're already part of a revolution in Mobile technology, Biometrics, the science of measuring features or functions of the human body to establish your identity passwords, pins, usernames infuriatingly. Hard to remember and downright dangerous.

    5. So, if passwords are impossible to protect on their own, what do we do? That's where two-factor authentication comes in. Two-Factor authentication or 2fa adds a second method of identity verification to secure your accounts. First, the thing you know your password, then something unique that you have, like your phone or fingerprint. By combining your password with one of these factors, attackers can't access your account, even if they have your password. The most common 2fa systems use a unique one-time code with every login attempt. This code is tied to your account and generated by a token smartphone or sent to you by text message. The more modern and most secure form of 2fa, uses a mobile app to send an approval notification to your smartphone or Smartwatch for the least hassle possible. With 95% of breaches involving account takeover, two- factor authentication is the most effective method of prevention. It's time for everybody businesses, governments, and you to take the easy and effective step of enabling two-factor authentication on all accounts. If it uses a password, it needs to use two-factor authentication

    6. Passwords are everywhere. We use them to access our money or Communications, even our social lives. At first, we used one password for everything, but that wasn't good enough. So, we started making our passwords even more complicated and began using password managers to organize the dozens or hundreds of the unique passwords we used. But no matter how complex our password system wise, it was never enough to prevent account takeover because all it took was one fishing email or database exploit and your password was out in in the world.

    1. Most adjuncts and even instructors know that they are the menial workers of the university system

      I feel drawn to annotate this quote, because it emphasizes how there is a division of labor hierarchy presented in our institutions that is the opposite of "tenure" faculty. The fact is from 1976, shows its a long standing issue, and goes back even further beyond this.

    1. What Your Bluetooth Devices Reveal About You
      • Project Overview: The author developed "Bluehood," a Python-based Bluetooth scanner, to demonstrate the extensive metadata leaked by devices merely by having Bluetooth enabled.
      • Motivation: Triggered by a critical vulnerability (WhisperPair CVE-2025-36911) and a desire to visualize invisible digital footprints, the project highlights how "invisible" signals compromise privacy.
      • What Bluetooth Reveals About Users: By monitoring signals passively, the author could determine:
        • Delivery Logistics: Exact arrival times of delivery vehicles and whether the same driver visits repeatedly.
        • Daily Routines: The specific daily patterns of neighbors based on their phone and wearable broadcasts.
        • Device Associations: Which devices belong to the same person (e.g., a specific phone moving in tandem with a specific smartwatch).
        • Occupancy & Location: Exact times people are home, at work, or elsewhere.
        • Security Vulnerabilities: Periods when a house is typically empty.
        • Social Patterns: Regular visitors (e.g., someone visiting every Thursday afternoon).
        • Employment Indicators: Patterns that suggest specific work types, such as shift work.
        • Family Schedules: Specific times children return home from school.
        • Consumer Habits: Which households share the same delivery drivers, implying similar shopping preferences.
        • Incident Evidence: Retrospective logs of who was present (passersby, dog walkers) during specific events like property damage.
      • Uncontrollable Broadcasts:
        • Many devices broadcast continuously without user recourse, including medical implants (pacemakers, hearing aids), modern vehicles, and smart home tech.
        • Privacy tools like Briar or BitChat require Bluetooth for off-grid mesh networking, creating a paradox where privacy tools necessitate privacy leaks.
      • Technical Functionality:
        • Bluehood uses passive scanning to identify vendors and device types without connecting.
        • It analyzes patterns (heatmaps, dwell times) and filters out randomized MAC addresses to focus on persistent tracking.

      Hacker News Discussion

      • Ubiquitous Tracking: Commenters confirmed that similar tracking is common in retail (using iBeacons to track shoppers to specific shelves) and via vehicle sensors (TPMS in tires broadcasting unique IDs).
      • WiFi vs. Bluetooth: Users noted that WiFi signals from cars (often named "Audi", "Tesla", etc.) are just as leaky as Bluetooth, allowing for easy "wardriving" profiles.
      • Medical Privacy: Significant concern was raised regarding medical devices (like CPAP machines) that broadcast 24/7, often to satisfy insurance requirements, with no way for the patient to disable the radio.
      • Mitigation Strategies:
        • OS Features: GrapheneOS and recent Android versions offer settings to automatically turn off Bluetooth after a period of inactivity.
        • iOS Limitations: Apple users noted it is harder to keep Bluetooth permanently off without diving into settings or using Shortcuts, as the Control Center toggles are temporary.
      • Legal Context: Several users pointed out that while such tracking is rampant in some regions, it is strictly regulated or forbidden in the EU without explicit consent.
    1. When examining discussions of the Eurozone crisis in our groups, the first thing to note is that discussions of responsibility for the crisis were the one topic that revealed the most profound differences between the debtor states (Spain and Ireland) and the creditor states (Germany and Austria). Our Madrid and Dublin groups agreed that the austerity measures that were imposed in both countries as a consequence of bailout conditionality had had a very real negative effect on the citizens. Nevertheless, most participants insisted that these measures were to be seen as a consequence of mistakes by domestic actors – governments, banks, society as a whole.

      AGAIN -> citizens / participants see it as NATIONAL GOVTS FAULT FOR NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF EUROZONE CRISIS -> on both sides of creditor/debtor isle - Blame for bailouts / austerity measures in EIR and ESP are on NATIONAL GOVTS FORT CREATING THE CONDITIONS FOR SUCH BAILOUTS -> likewise in Germany / Austria on nat govts for asceding to said bailouts. (giving money too wilingly, also blame national govter IN EIR and ESP -> i.e., blaming those member sttaes for their own fuck ups and the crisis writ large).

      Notes that Germany / Asutria bailed them out, but felt crisis much less oainfully (didn't need austerity measures obv)

      "When examining discussions of the Eurozone crisis in our groups, the first thing to note is that discussions of responsibility for the crisis were the one topic that revealed the most profound differences between the debtor states (Spain and Ireland) and the creditor states (Germany and Austria).

Nevertheless, most participants insisted that these measures were to be seen as a consequence of mistakes by domestic actors – governments, banks, society as a whole."

    2. the financial implications of Eurozone membership, particularly the need to contribute to the bailouts, were prominent themes. The economic state of the Eurozone was evaluated very negatively, and many participants expr

      In Germany and Austria, see it as NATIONAL issue _> are aware of crisis, but only participate in NATIONAL issue -> wary of DOMESTIC govt handing out too much money to EU, not about steering EU itself which, again, they largely see as too complicated a task to do so while making an informed decision.

      Idea is that CITIIZENS HAVE LITTLE / NO POWER OVER EU, WHILE EU ITSELF HAS WAY TOO MUCH POWER / INFLUENCE OVER NATIONAL GOVTS -> IMPACT OF CRISIS SUMMARISED

    3. ‘Good idea, but does not work in practice’ – an assessment of this kind was made in almost all of our focus groups, and usually went unopposed. What is also characteristic about the last speaker’s statement is a framing of European integration that emphasises national perspectives or differences. As in the exchange above, these perspectives were often defined culturally, especially in Germany and Austria, but equally important in this context were references to criteria of distributive justice between member states and/or one’s own state’s ability to defend and advance its interests.

      idk basically the FRAME they see the EU through is summed up in some keywords: - economics - corruption - "good idea but poor execution"

      "‘Good idea, but does not work in practice’ – an assessment of this kind was made in almost all of our focus groups, and usually went unopposed. What is also characteristic about the last speaker’s statement is a framing of European integration that emphasises national perspectives or differences.

      See it also as some OTHER member states' faults -> works for THOSE countries (Italy) but not for OURS -> ethnonationalist / cultural distinctions here too invoked.

    4. What this implies for political mobilisation is that many citizens, regardless of educational background, feel that they lack the cognitive preconditions to make informed and confident use of opportunities for participation that relate to EU policy-making. This is different at the domestic level where the (perceived) familiarity with the relevant institutions is greater.

      Participants believe that EU IS SIMPLY TOO COMPLICATED -> do not have "cognitive" abilities to process it and make INFORMED DECISION -> have "perceived familiarity" w/ national elections and thus are more confident in that department. Includes the educated group.

      AGAIN -> CRISIS HAS NOT CHANGED THIS DEVELOPMENT -> this is 2013 so post - Eurozone (or at least intra Eurozone)

    5. In fact, in our focus groups, participants in three of the four countries displayed a strong disenchantment with politics in general, and frequently criticised politicians for corruption, incompetence, or lack of responsiveness. Germany was the only exception.

      Notably, in focus groups 3/4 countries say dfisillusioned w/ politics IN GENRAL as oppsoed to only EU

      In either case, MOST say they have no ideas how it works, SOME take conspiratorial attitude (not by today's standards, but still).

    6. perceived the EU as an ‘undistinguished whole’, n

      Uneducated AND educated alike make blunders / do not FACTUALLY understand certain EU institutions / functioning of the EU -> likewise subjectively say that they do not understand it / see it as an "undistinguished whole."

    7. ecent years. These questions were designed to find out whether EU-related issues – or the EU dimension of multilevel issues such as the economic crisis – were mentioned spontaneously.

      Asked about "political events" and the economy -> done to see if EU talk happens SPONTANEOUSLY

      In SECOND round of questioning asked specifically abotu EU

      divided according to education level.

      DO provide for some biases / lack of representation.

    8. We conducted four focus groups in the capital cities of each of our four states. The groups were held in December 2013; each was composed of 8–10 participants. Participants were recruited, under our supervision, by local public opinion research firms, drawing on their existing panels.

      FOCUS GROUPS / METHODOLOGY:

      • In ca[pital cities of four states, from "public opinion research firms"' existing participants

      "We conducted four focus groups in the capital cities of each of our four states. The groups were held in December 2013; each was composed of 8–10 participants. Participants were recruited, under our supervision, by local public opinion research firms, drawing on their existing panels."

      "two groups were composed of citizens with a post-secondary educational qualification, while the other two groups consisted of citizens without such a qualification. All groups were evenly mixed with respect to other demographic characteristics (such as gender and age)."

    9. revious trend

      Interesting about voter turnout for EP elections (second category of analysis) - Basically, 2014 EP elections were lowest turnout on record despite Eurozone crisis. - BUT some countries had higher turnouts (Germany increase of 5%) -> QUESTION, why? Can you not conclude that Germany, as a creditor country, DID have a more involved electorate post-Eurozone? - In any case, says this IS NOT FULLY EVIDENCE OF EP ELEC†iON DECLINE -> because Western democraciues AT LARGE are on a downward slope of declining voter participation -> AND GAP IS NARROWING BETWEEN EP ELECTIONS AND MEMBER STATES, even if both on downard trajectory - But again, only in Germany is the closing of this gap attributable (maybe) to the crisis and to INCREASED turnout in EP elections.

    10. The causal models proposed in existing theories of politicisation provide little guidance to answering this question; we therefore outline our own exploratory study, based on focus groups, that seeks to identify factors that shape citizens’ motivations for EU-level participation.

      QUESTION -> METHODOLOGY -> what was using focus groups like?

    11. suggests that the weakness of supranational citizen mobilisation is linked to factors that restrict the citizens’ receptiveness to EU-related messages: limited knowledge of the EU and a weak sense of political efficacy, a discursive framing that conceptualises the EU as a consortium of member states rather than a supranational entity, and attributions of responsibility for the crisis that de-emphasise the role of EU policies.

      Research question: Why have crises like the Eurozone NOT triggered MORE EU citizen mobilisation? (like that reading back in the day that said citizens in EU-bailout crises did NOT treat EP elections any less like SONEs than non-bailout countries, despite being the direct recipients of EU policies)

      Suggests / argues that: - BECAUSE EU citizens have limited / restricted knowledge of EU - "limited knowledge of the EU" - Discourse that frames EU as group of / consortium BETWEEN MEMBER STATES as opposed to integrated democracy OF those states - Do not understand that EU policies are in part responsible for crises -> attribute responsibility entiorely (or mostly) to national govts.

      MEANS THAT politicisation of EU issues is more likely to / has already led to INCREASED "RE-NATIONALISATION" of these issues as opposed to making these issues SUPRANATIONAL in scope among the electorate -> implicitly less of a pan-EU identity then, too.

      ARE SPECIFICALLY ASKING WHY THE EUROZONE CRISIS DID NOT LEAD TO FURTHER INTEGRATION VIA INCREASED ELECTORATE PARTICIPATION

      "This article examines to what extent the Eurozone crisis has indeed contributed to such a shift towards European citizenship."

    1. Answer: NO. Any experienced reader will instantly see through such a scheme and will likely become irritated by the resulting “fluffy” prose.

      Growing up, we were taught to use filler words and writing an outlandish sentence just to fill in the minimum word requirement. I've always felt annoyed about this because we do not talk to each other like this in real life. Typically, we get to the point. So, I'm happy that getting to the point is more acceptable now.

    2. thesis statement is often a single sentence

      It's important to have a strong thesis statement so the reader can understand what you are writing about.

    3. Another helpful technique in the final revision process is to have someone read your paper aloud to you.

      I think hearing someone else read it aloud to me helps me hear it the way the reader would understand it. I haven't considered this technique before but will use it moving forward.

    4. Pay attention to your word usage; try to leave little room for misinterpretation when the audience reads your piece.

      Wording is very important! I try my best to select my wording carefully so that I can convey the proper meaning to the reader.

    5. Revising requires a significant alteration in a piece of writing, such as enriching the content, or giving the piece clarity; editing, however, is not as involved and includes fixing typos and grammatical errors.

      I haven't really considered the difference between revising and editing before. I assumed they were the same but they are not!

    1. un seul élément parmi d'autres,

      Le cours est mal expliqué; Id, c'est l'identité, c'est comme si tu donnais un nom et un prénom à un élément. id c'est comme si tu écrivais "nom:". Et le contenu de l'id c'est un identifiant unique pour chacun (tu vas pas appeler plusieurs élement "Id: Image_de_Marie", sinon on ne sait pas le quel c'est.

      Classe, c'est pour des catégories, par exemple, je crée une classe Photo_de_femme, une Photo_de_chats, et à l'intérieur d'une classe tu peux avoir des éléments que tu as désigné de façon unique par leur id (identité).

    1. In one experiment, people who relied heavily on GPS performed worse on navigation tasks that required them to remember routes. Even more concerning, frequent GPS users showed declines in hippocampal function – the brain region responsible for spatial memory.

      I've noticed this with myself as i personally always use GPS and cant imagine myself going anywhere outside the city without it.

    2. It’s the difference between climbing a mountain and taking a helicopter to the top. Sure, you get the view either way, but one experience builds strength, resilience, and pride – the other is just a free ride.

      This is a great analogy as it says how taking the easier ways makes you more reliant while in contrast doing it yourself strengthens you and makes you cable of doing it on your own.

    3. It’s the difference between climbing a mountain and taking a helicopter to the top. Sure, you get the view either way, but one experience builds strength, resilience, and pride – the other is just a free ride.

      this is a good way to describe the situation as one side gives difficultly and more satisfaction when done vs the other where there is no difficulty at all.

    4. Cognitive Load Theory tells us that our brains need a certain level of difficulty to process information deeply. If something is too easy – like, say, getting AI to write an essay for you – your brain doesn’t engage enough to form lasting knowledge

      this gives the author good support to her question of asking if AI is making us dumber.

    1. había sido dominio exclusivo de un puñado de personas de repente estaba siendo criticado por miles de personas a la vez.Algunos de esos usuarios se convirtieron en colaboradores, aportando su experiencia al desarrollo del proyecto.—y la base de colaboradores de Julia se expandió rápidamente. "A finales de 2012, teníamos cerca de 100 colaboradores", dijo Shah. (Ahora son 680). "Sin esas contribuciones, creo que sería muy difícil que Julia fuera lo que es".

      ¿Un lenguaje se vuelve grande solo con ser bueno? Considero firmemente que necesita de una comunidad que lo respalde.

    2. Pero gran parte de las especificaciones de los lenguajes de programación se centran en estos pequeños detalles

      Esto es acertado. En mi experiencia con diferentes lenguajes de programación los bugs más graves nacen en lo que parece algo muy simple.

    3. El impulso inicial detrás de Julia fue el deseo de un lenguaje de programación que combinara elementos de la funcionalidad de alto nivel de MATLAB y R con la velocidad de C o Ruby, como lo expresó Karpinski

      Esto es bastante real, ya que la mayoría de lenguas de programación nacen de una necesidad.

    4. Shah and Karpinski agree that the work is never finished. Julia is constantly evolving, buoyed by its open-source ethos and the broad range of voices in its contributor base. “They enrich Julia in ways we could never have imagined ourselves,” said Shah.

      El trabajo colaborativo del código abierto es lo que permite que evolucione contantemente, si algo a ellos los creadores no se les ocurre, puede que a otro se le ocurra algo mejor. y ese constante cambio puede llegar a mejores cosas.

    5. That begs the obvious question: whether they’ve reached that goal yet. Not a chance, said Shah. “It’s a work in progress, right? It’s forever a work in progress. By definition, I don’t think we’ll ever reach it, but I think we are further along than almost anyone else.”

      Ellos lo saben, con tantos desarrollos en proceso y la tecnología corriendo a grandes pasos, su proyecto no tendrá final, siempre estará en constante evolución, e impactando en su proceso.

    6. But now that that initial wave of success has subsided, the team has had time to think about the longer-term impact of the language. “Now we’re in the transitional period from being the hot new language that’s trending with people who like trendy new programming languages to [being] in the mainstream,” said Karpinski.

      Bueno, siento que como todo lo novedoso siempre tiene un declive, entre los aparatos tecnológicos o lenguajes de programación o simplemente en este mundo de tendencias, todo tiene un cierto declive si no se innova, aunque también puede ser momento de una nueva revolución si se desea. Bueno si ven que se puede mejorar o dar un nuevo salto en su necesidad.

    7. From the initial suggestion to create a new, fast programming language to the first commit, which was made in August 2009, the team moved quickly. “We didn’t spend a lot of time talking about it,” said Karpinski. “We had one thread of emails back and forth, then Jeff, Viral, and I said, ‘Let’s do it.’”

      Es curioso como se dio el comienzo de este lenguaje, sin tanto tramite o burocracia, solo una charla entre colegas con correos y pasaron manos a la obra, es gratificante ver como un proyecto así nace sin tanto papeleo, solo personas, una idea y ganas de desarrollar algo.

    8. The initial drive behind Julia was the desire for a programming language that combined elements of the high-level functionality of MATLAB and R with the speed of C or Ruby—as Karpinski put it, “the best of all worlds.”

      Las grandes invenciones son desde una necesidad, para estas personas que en su practica de uso de estos lenguajes y querer combinar y crear algún modelo mucho mejor y que fuera fácil, es como todo desde una idea o un pensamiento pequeño puede llegar a cambiar algo en gran medida.

    1. Women are leaving the music industry in their 30s and not returning owing to challenges around access, career progression and parenting.95 Since 2018, the number of women aged 45 to 64 in the sector has fallen from 38.7% to 35% despite women outnumbering men in the lower age groups.96

      Women in their 30s and they are not coming back to their jobs in the music industry.

    2. Over 70% of the music workforce is freelance (for musicians the figure rises to over 80%),94 working hours can be unsociable, contracts are often precarious, support is inconsistent and the provision of work is often based on unequal relationships.

      Freelancing is prominent in the music industry.

    3. The major labels set out the proportion of women in their senior leadership teams: Universal 50%; Sony 55%; and Warner 48%.86 With respect to A&R a department that has traditionally employed more men than women, the labels told us that they now had dedicated programmes to consider barriers to entry and increase the representation of women.87 Vick Bain’s 2019 study of the music industry found that just over 14% of those currently signed to 106 music publishers and just under 20% of those signed to 219 record labels were female.88 The BPI told us: We are already seeing the changes in relation to the signing of women artists as a result of more women working in these crucial roles and targeted entry-level programmes, some specifically for women.89

    5. Many of these organisations are sparsely funded, or completely volunteer led.76

      A lot of these organizations do not have many funds and are ran by volunteers.

    6. here are a myriad of organisations that help support women to have careers in the music industry, from those who gave evidence to us, including the F-List, Black Lives in Music, Cactus City, and Women in CTRL, to more local schemes such as Girls Rock London, Yorkshire Sound Women Network and Manchester-based Brighter Sound to name just a few.71 Initiatives such as UK Music’s Five P’s action plan;72 the global Keychange pledge;73 a joint code of practice by the Musicians’ Union and the ISM74 and the best practice framework for the industry being developed by the BPI (British Phonographic Industry) and others are just some that seek to promote a change of culture in the industry. But as Lady of the House, a platform championing women in electronic music, told us: The fact we have so many initiatives, communities, programs etc is amazing but on the other hand shows the desperate need to straighten the music industry out so it can protect and give women an equal opportunity in regards to equity.75

    7. The Musicians’ Union’s 2022 snapshot survey found that more than 65% of respondents who had experienced misogyny and/or sexism said it was linked to another characteristic. It explained: These behaviours are often experienced combined with and driven by ageism, racism, LGBT+ phobia, ableism, and assumptions about women’s ability to perform if they are pregnant or have caring responsibilities.66

    8. What we found was that women with disabilities were subjected to bullying and harassment so much more often than men without disabilities. We also found that women who identified as sexual minorities experienced bullying and harassment much more than heterosexual men and BME women were sexually harassed more often than white men were.61

      Women who are disabled or in the LGBTQ+ community are harassed and bullied more than other groups of women.

    9. Constant comments on social media and elsewhere about female musicians’ appearance—on their attractiveness rather than their talent—contribute to a culture where a female artist’s worth is judged first on their looks and perceived sexual availability.5

      Women are experiencing harassment both in real life and online on social media--not for their talent but their attractiveness and physical looks, worth is judged based on appeal and sexual ability.

    1. Défis et controverses de l'éducation des parents : Analyse et perspectives

      Résumé exécutif

      Le présent document synthétise l'analyse du sociologue Claude Martin concernant l'évolution des pratiques et des politiques d'éducation des parents en France.

      Le constat initial révèle un « effet de ciseaux » alarmant : une explosion de la souffrance psychique chez les jeunes coïncidant avec un affaissement de l'offre de soins et de soutien humain.

      L'analyse souligne un basculement paradigmatique majeur : le passage d'un déterminisme social (collectif et structurel) à un déterminisme parental (individuel et comportemental).

      Cette évolution a favorisé l'émergence d'un marché du conseil aux parents et d'une « parentalité positive » qui, bien que prônant la bienveillance, impose de nouvelles injonctions de performance et de bonheur.

      Le document explore également les usages politiques des neurosciences et les controverses actuelles entourant les méthodes éducatives, concluant sur le paradoxe du « double bind » (double contrainte) auquel les parents modernes sont confrontés.

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      1. L'état des lieux : Une jeunesse en souffrance

      La situation actuelle de l'enfance en France est marquée par une dégradation notable de la santé mentale, un phénomène antérieur à la pandémie de COVID-19 mais accentué par celle-ci.

      L'effet de ciseaux

      Le Haut Conseil de l'enfance, de la famille et de l'âge (HCFEA) alerte sur deux phénomènes concomitants :

      Explosion de la demande : Une hausse massive des manifestations de souffrance psychique chez les enfants et adolescents.

      Affaissement de l'offre : Une réduction drastique des moyens de prise en charge (thérapies de parole, lieux d'accueil) et une crise du secteur de la pédopsychiatrie.

      La réponse médicamenteuse

      Faute de structures d'accompagnement suffisantes, la réponse s'est déplacée vers la prescription de psychotropes, avec des augmentations spectaculaires entre 2014 et 2021 :

      | Type de médicament | Augmentation de la prescription (2014-2021) | | --- | --- | | Antidépresseurs | \+ 63 % | | Psychostimulants | \+ 78 % | | Hypnotiques et sédatifs | \+ 155 % | | Antipsychotiques | \+ 50 % |

      Le phénomène du retrait social

      Le document identifie l'émergence en France du phénomène de retrait social (type Hikikomori), touchant principalement des garçons lycéens (15-17 ans).

      Ce refus d'entrer dans la course à la réussite scolaire est parfois analysé, de manière controversée, à travers le prisme de l'influence parentale (notamment des mères jugées excessives ou intrusives).

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      2. Le basculement des déterminismes

      L'approche sociologique a radicalement changé de nature entre les années 1960 et aujourd'hui.

      Du collectif à l'individuel

      Le déterminisme social (Années 60-70) : La réussite ou l'échec d'un enfant était perçu comme le résultat de l'appartenance à une classe sociale et de la reproduction des inégalités. C'était un enjeu de lutte collective et politique.

      Le déterminisme parental (Actuel) : La focale s'est déplacée vers le comportement individuel des parents.

      Les difficultés de l'enfant (santé mentale, échec scolaire, comportement antisocial) sont désormais imputées à un déficit de « compétences parentales ».

      La psychologisation des problèmes publics

      Cette vision individualiste conduit à une responsabilisation accrue des parents, générant souvent un sentiment de culpabilité.

      Des auteurs comme Frank Furedi (Paranoid Parenting) ou d'autres parlent de « parentalité narcissique », soulignant un manque de confiance des adultes dans le futur qui compromettrait leur capacité à éduquer.

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      3. Évolution historique du contrôle de la fonction parentale

      L'éducation des parents n'est pas un concept nouveau, mais elle a traversé plusieurs phases distinctes :

      1. Fin XIXe - Début XXe siècle (Hygiénisme et Protection) : Lutte contre la mortalité infantile et protection contre les « classes dangereuses ».

      Il s'agissait alors d'enseigner aux mères les soins de base et de limiter la puissance paternelle absolue.

      2. L'après-guerre (Le marché du conseil) : Émergence de manuels à succès (Benjamin Spock, Laurence Pernoud, Françoise Dolto).

      Ce secteur économique puissant prospère sur l'inquiétude des parents : plus ils consomment de conseils, plus ils se sentent déroutés, alimentant une consommation accrue.

      3. Années 1990 (L'invention de la « Parentalité ») : Le terme parenting (centré sur l'acte et le comportement plutôt que sur le statut) est traduit par « parentalité ».

      Cela devient un segment à part entière de l'action publique, visant à « soutenir » les parents, mais les prenant en réalité comme cibles d'intervention.

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      4. Neurosciences et "Neuro-parenting"

      L'usage des neurosciences dans l'éducation des parents fait l'objet de critiques importantes, notamment concernant la surinterprétation de données scientifiques.

      Le mythe des trois premières années : Une fascination scientiste pour l'imagerie cérébrale a conduit à l'idée d'une « fenêtre d'opportunité » unique durant les trois premières années de vie.

      Cette vision déterministe présente le bébé comme un « petit ordinateur » dont le câblage dépendrait entièrement des stimuli parentaux.

      L'adolescent stigmatisé : À l'inverse de la vision « mine d'or » du cerveau du nourrisson, le cerveau de l'adolescent est souvent présenté par les politiques publiques comme « mal foutu » ou intrinsèquement problématique, justifiant des interventions urgentes.

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      5. La parentalité positive : Entre bienveillance et injonction

      La « parentalité positive » est devenue un courant dominant, porté par un lobbying actif auprès des pouvoirs publics.

      La controverse du "Time Out"

      Une polémique oppose actuellement deux visions :

      Les partisans du cadre : Préconisent des méthodes simples comme le « Time Out » (envoyer l'enfant dans sa chambre) pour gérer les crises.

      Les radicaux de la bienveillance : Assimilent le « Time Out » à une « violence éducative ordinaire », créant une continuité entre ces pratiques et des dérives graves comme l'infanticide.

      L'injonction au bonheur

      La parentalité moderne impose une « norme sous la peau » : les mères ne doivent pas seulement bien agir, elles doivent être « authentiquement heureuses ». Un faux sourire est perçu comme dangereux pour l'enfant, créant une pression psychologique insoutenable pour les parents.

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      6. Conclusion : Le paradoxe de la mission parentale

      Le document conclut sur l'impasse du « double bind » parental actuel :

      D'un côté : Les parents qui « n'en font pas assez » sont désignés comme irresponsables ou absents.

      De l'autre : Les « parents hélicoptères » (parentalité intensive) sont critiqués pour générer une dépendance problématique chez l'enfant.

      L'analyse de Claude Martin suggère que la politique de parentalité devrait redevenir un soutien collectif et générationnel plutôt qu'une focalisation sur les comportements individuels.

      L'éducation est une improvisation située historiquement ; les modèles parentaux ne peuvent être des invariants déconnectés du contexte social et des limites de chaque génération.

    1. Currently, standard practice (used by HLI and Founders Pledge) treats SDs on different mental health instruments as interconvertible with WELLBY SDs on a roughly 1:1 basis.

      I don't know if that's standard practice -- these are 2 EA-linked or adjacent groups -- moderate

    1. Managing the amount and presentation of information facilitates active processing and makes content more accessible.

      I think that it is important to remember that we can only learn so much in a day and to manage what we want to teach students over time.

    2. While the theory of dual channels is primarily applied to audiovisual materials like voice-over videos and tutorials, the concept is relevant when we are using textual and visual materials to support a live lecture or demonstration as well.

      I think that it is important to have more than one way to deliver lectures and not just listening to the teacher talk about a subject in class.

    3. Cognitive load “is a theory about learning built on the premise that since the brain can only do so many things at once, we should be intentional about what we ask it to do” (H

      I did not realize what cognitive load meant and I think that this is really interesting.

    4. Individuals can process a limited amount of information in each channel at one time. As such, instructors must carefully select pieces of information to include and make intentional decisions about how to present that information.

      This connects to my own experience as a learner. I often become overwhelmed when too much information is presented to me at one time. I think it is super important to be intentional about what information to share and when to share it.

    5. Instructional materials, both written and visual, are an integral part of teaching and, when used appropriately, can engage learners and deepen learning.

      This article reminded me of how important it is to remember that everyone has different learning needs. Using both written and visual materials can help students who learn in different ways, making the classroom more inclusive.

    6. We might post some of our instructional materials online to make them available after the session ends and to learners unable to attend sessions

      Doing this makes learning more accessible and flexible. It ensures that all students have access to the material. An example of when this would be helpful is when a student misses a class or when someone needs to review what was covered in class.

    1. You can offer to be another pair of eyes for peers in exchange for them doing the same for you.

      A second pair of eyes is usually beneficial. We do this at work and it allows us to help each other out.

    2. Although you might think editing and proofreading aren’t necessary since you were fairly careful when you were writing, the truth is that even the brightest people and best writers make mistakes when they write.

      This shows us that we are all human's and human errors are likely to happen. It has nothing to do with our intelligence, it has to do with mistakes that happen to all of us. And it's okay!

    1. However, a stronger dollar makes exports more expensive, reducing export revenue and, potentially, resulting in a loss of jobs in related businesses or industries.

      less ppl want to buy my expensive stuff, so i make less sales overall despite having more revenue per sale

    1. ChatGPT, next to adding ads, is now also inviting users to upload their contact list according to this web article. The purpose is unclear, is OpenAI building a social media platform? It is a EU wide GDPR violation though. Even if I were a user and opt-out others who don't might upload my personal contact details.

    1. At least initially, competition among Europeans ensured that Native American leaders could negotiate reasonable prices for their goods. Furthermore, their important role in the lucrative fur trade protected them for a time from the kind of extermination, enslavement, or displacement that was the fate of native peoples in Portuguese Brazil.

      I think it's crazy to think that even this long ago Native Americans were seen more as a resource then as people, as their value in the fur trade was seen as the main reason that they were not exterminated or enslaved like other native people.

    2. China’s role in the silver trade is a useful reminder of Asian centrality in the world economy of the early modern era. Its large and prosperous population, increasingly operating within a silver-based economy, fueled global commerce, vastly increasing the quantity of goods exchanged and the geographic range of world trade.

      It is very impressive to me that China has been such a world power for how long they have been. They were one of the first real world powers to ever exist and even to this day they are seen as a top world power along with the United States.

    3. The Spanish were the first to challenge Portugal’s position as they established themselves on what became the Philippine Islands, named after the Spanish king Philip II. There they found an archipelago of islands, thousands of them, occupied by culturally diverse peoples and organized in small and highly competitive chiefdoms.

      I never knew that the Philippines were named after the Spanish King Philip II and that it was made up of thousands of islands, I thought it was a lot smaller than that. However I did know of its importance to the Spanish as it was one of the territories fought over during the Spanish American War.

    4. For many centuries, Eastern goods had trickled into the Mediterranean through the Middle East from the Indian Ocean commercial network. From the viewpoint of an increasingly dynamic Europe, several major problems accompanied this pattern of trade

      Looking at this now, I can't help but think of how it could've been very inefficient to rely on goods from trade that would take this long to obtain. Getting to the Mediterranean Sea from the Indian Ocean at this time would have taken an extremely long time as it would require going all the way around the African continent, and it would take a very long time to get to the bottom of the continent from both sides.

    1. This document defines the initial governance practices of the Meta-Layer Infrastructure Special Interest Group (SIG), an initiative focused on stewarding the interface layer above the web where meaning, identity, annotation, trust, and human–agent interaction are formed.

      This is my thought

    1. French system

      The french took a more hieracical route to promote assimilation. Th French divided colonies into cantons that did not correspind to pre colonial govenemnte units, with them sometimes intetionally breaking up old poltical units. - chiefes were not selected according to customaryprocedure, but were selected based on their education, lineage or loyalty to the french. - their function was basically to be a mouth piece to the locals, maintained no judicial authrity, and they eventualluy removed

    1. Example of person working with Obsidian and Claude Code. Note that it does not use the Obsidian CLI access, but its API.

      Same author some months back mentioned running Claude Code on a small Hetzner VPS (but just Claude Code, no models) so he could access it from anywhere (except offline obviously).

    1. But the reality is many poor kids aren't able to move to good neighborhoods. The question in this new study is: can policymakers transform some of America's most impoverished neighborhoods, which have abysmal rates of upward mobility, into better neighborhoods where kids have a much greater shot at escaping poverty? And, if you can transform these neighborhoods and that does increase kids' chances of climbing the economic ladder, how and why does that happen?

      Laying out the overarching questions to be explored in the article as the research results are discussed. Main ideas of the whole article are expressed here; preceding text is priming the audience and providing background.

    1. Comparison video of Claude Code using Anthropics cloud models vs local models on a M4 128GB. Still a heavy lift, fans spinning, memory usage almost at full capacity. But it works. Means that for my M1 16GB a smaller model is all that works, and you need to leave room for context loading too. For one-offs like code generation and for interactive in moving contexts there's different needs.
