GenotypingMethod:
In the present study, we recruited a 14-year-old female patient diagnosed with ABCA4-RD. Biallelic variants were found in this patient, including the nonsense variant c.1222C>T p.(Arg408Ter) detected by Sanger sequencing and the deep intronic variant c.2919-884G>T p.[Phe973LeufsTer3,=] identified by next-generation sequencing.
We isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from the patient’s peripheral venous blood and introduced three episomal plasmids containing transcription factors OCT4, SOX2, NANOG, LIN28, c-MYC, KLF4, and SV40LT into PBMCs. The reprogramming iPSC line, named BIOi003-A, showed stabilized morphology (Fig. 1A) and a normal karyotype in culture (Fig. 1B). Then, the endogenous expression of two pluripotent biomarkers, POU5F1 and NANOG, was detected (Table 2). The expression levels were compared with human embryonic stem cell line H1(hESC-H1) and mesenchymal stem cell line P3 (MSC-P3) by qRT-PCR (Fig. 1C). Surface markers SSEA4 and TRA-1–81 were analyzed by flow cytometry (Fig. 1D). the ABCA4 compound heterozygous variants c.(1222C>T;2919-884G>T) p.[Arg408Ter;Phe973LeufsTer3,=] were verified by Sanger sequencing (Fig. 1E). Furthermore, the teratoma assay exhibited the differentiation capacity of this iPSC line in vivo (Fig. 1F). Short tandem repeats (STR) analysis exhibited that the PBMCs and the iPSC line came from the same patient. PCR proved negative for mycoplasma contamination

System software also uses the Configure Endpoint Command to inform the xHC of pipe changes due to selecting an Alternate Interface on a device. Typically an Alternate Interface setting is used to modify the payload size or bandwidth requirement of a pipe, however it may also be used to disable or enable one or more pipes. The Input Control Context data structure of the Input Context allows software to explicitly identify which pipes are enabled, disabled, or modified by a target Alternate Interface setting. The parameters of the Input Endpoint Contexts for enabled or modified pipes shall correlate target pipe settings (Endpoint Type, Max Packet Size, etc.). If the Configure Endpoint Command does not complete successfully, software shall not issue a SET_INTERFACE request to the device.
システムソフトウェアはデバイスの代替インターフェースを選択したことによるパイプのxHCの変化を知らせるためにConfigure Endpoint Commandを使います。通常は代替インターフェースセッティングはパイプのペイロードや帯域幅の変化要求に使われます、しかしそれは一つ以上の有効/無効パイプを使います。インプットコンテキストのインプットコントロールコンテキストはソフトウェアが有効/無効/代替インターフェースによって変更された/パイプを識別するのを許可します。有効/変更されたパイプ用のインプットエンドポイントコンテキストのパラメータはパイプセッティングに関係しますもしConfigure Endpoint Commandが完全に完了していない場合ソフトウェアはSET_INTERFACE要求をデバイスへ発行していません。
The Configure Endpoint Command points to an Input Context data structure, which defines the target configuration parameters for the xHC. For proper operation of the xHC, every endpoint that will be enabled by a target device configuration shall be defined in a respective Endpoint Context data structure of the Input Context, and the parameters of the Endpoint Contexts shall correlate target endpoint settings (Endpoint Type, Max Packet Size, Burst Size, etc.). xHC and device behavior will be undefined if there are any mismatches. This also means that if the Configure Endpoint Command does not complete successfully, software shall not issue a SET_CONFIGURATION request to the device.
Configure Endpoint CommandはInput Contextを指し、xHC用の狙いのコンフィギュレーションパラメータを定義します。すべての正しいxHCの命令にとってすべてのエンドポイントは各エンドポイントコンテキストのインプットコンテキストで定義されたデバイスコンフィグレーションにより利用可能になり、エンドポイントコンテキストのパラメータはエンドポイントのセッティングと関係します。xHCとデバイスは適合しないとき未定義の振る舞いを見せます。これはConfigure Endpoint Commandが完全に終わっておらず、ソフトウェアがSET_CONFIGURATION要求をデバイスに発行していない場合を意味しています。
The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act was passed in 1990.
This is actually not that long ago!
Land, water and mineral rights are often protected through treaties; but remember treaties, the supreme law of the land, can be broken and all of them have been, by the federal government. The only recourse tribes have is to take the federal government to court, through the federal justice system, up to the Supreme Court. It is a long, costly and arduous process and the Supreme Court has the ability to deny hearing a case.
treaties protect land and water rights
In addition, individuals could not afford all the necessary resources like tools, animals, seeds and supplies necessary to begin, let alone maintain a farm. Tribes were left unpaid or underpaid for the land allotments which often were too small to farm.
not able to afford neccessities
Ethnic cleansing has been defined as the attempt to get rid of (through deportation, displacement or even mass killing) members of an ethnic group. Ethnic cleansing is also the systematic forced removal of ethnic, racial, and religious groups from a given area, often with the intent of making a region ethnically homogeneous. Removal policies were acts of ethnic cleansing, and meant to take land from Native American tribes and place it in the hands of white invaders.
ethnic cleansing would be attempting to get rid of member through deportation , displacement or even masses of killings! This can be forced removal
Decolonization demands an indigenous framework and a centering of Indigenous land, Indigenous sovereignty, and Indigenous ways of thinking (Tuck & Yang, 2012).
Decolonization means breaking away from the unfair systems and ideas created by colonization. It means listening to Native people and respecting their land, culture, knowledge, and right to make their own choices. It also makes me wonder what schools can do besides giving a land acknowledgment to truly support local tribes.
These terms relate to Indigenous people across the United States and are used interchangeably with “Indian”. Individuals who identify with ancestral or cultural ties and or Native American tribes or Alaskan tribes in the United States.
This section emphasizes how Indigenous sovereignty is not something granted by the U.S. government but an inherent right that existed long before colonization. The chapter shows sovereignty as relational tied to land, culture, and community rather than just a political structure. This expands my understanding because I used to think sovereignty was mostly legal, but here it’s shown as something lived and practiced daily within Indigenous nations.
Colonization is the process of using power and assuming control through war, force, genocide, slavery, and intimidation of someone else’s territory, resources, culture and identity; and forcing one’s own culture, systems of law, government, and religion upon the remaining Indigenous group survivors
taking things through force and fear
Sovereignty is a political concept that refers to dominant power or supreme authority
sovereignty- key term.
When tribes institute their own court systems, have their own tribal police, develop their own K-12 tribal schools and/or tribal colleges, these are acts of self-determination and sovereignty.
Sovereignty means Native nations have the power to govern their own people without outsiders controlling every decision. Self-determination is how they put that power into action by creating their own courts, schools, and police departments. This connects to resistance because Native communities continue fighting to protect their rights, culture, and future.
In just 3 short paragraphs Dr. Cutcha Risling Baldy describes what it is like to be a California Indian woman today. She bids us to think about land theft, loss and destruction. She makes us think about the significance of intergenerational trauma and how violence doesn’t just hurt the victim. Cutcha calls us to think about missing and murdered indigenous women and places that California Native people deem sacred. Her life is place based. She speaks and writes from an internal place that is spiritually, emotionally, and intrinsically connected to where her ancestors and she were raised, and where their creation happened. Colonization may have pushed many of us from our homelands, but we return. See more on Dr. Risling Baldy's work on the Hupa Coming-of-Age Dance as decolonizing praxis under Chapter 8, section 8.6: Transformational Liberation through Love.
Extremely important! Dr. Cutcha describes how California is like for the average woman today and how the significance of intergenerational truama doesn't just "hurt" the victim but affections generations to come and native people in California are deem sacred.
Reasons why we plant, what we plant, how we plant and how we harvest sustainably is passed on through storytelling. Stories tell us about what to gather and hunt as well as when to do so.
This is actually extremely important! Through what they plant and harvest comes from these very storytellings, it's what makes them, THEM. That's extremely interesting as they pass on their ways of living and expectations and overall beliefs through stories.
Each nation has their own creation story telling of the way things came to be: plants, animals, water, rivers, lakes, rain, the earth, mountains, valleys, wind, fire, stars and people. Not only do these stories tell us about ourselves and our creation, but they reveal how everything is related, connected, and intertwined. Important information is passed down generation after generation in stories.
Important Information was passed down through generations? Does that mean it was more of story telling of their beliefs and other ideologies? I love how deeply rooted their are to the land that forms around them!
We have always been here. We learned to respect and appreciate the land, water, plants and animals as living beings, and know them as our equals, as family; because without them there is no us. We were created here, and we shall remain.
They believe they're one with the land, they find beauty and appreciation to any and all that's around them. They believe as they're created here so they shall remain here which stood out to me as something extremely beautiful.
Our stories are not fairytales. They teach us how to live in the world.
This passage stood out to me because Indigenous stories carry real knowledge about the land, medicine, culture, and survival. That wisdom has been passed down through generations and should be respected just like knowledge taught in schools. It shows that education can come from the community and lived experience too.
American Indian Studies (AIS) or Native American Studies (NAS) is an academic discipline that formally began in the late 1960’s when Native American student activists coordinated with Asian American, Chicana/o/x, Puerto Rican and Black students to demand change within higher education.
I actually didn't know that the American Indian Studies had began in the late 1960s as an academic discipline like how black studies had started

Scholarly Sources – Scholarly journal articles (such as those published in the Journal of Plant Science and Education and Child Psychology) are meant for scholars and students in a particular field of study. While they can also be read by members of the general public who have an interest in the topic, since they are written by experts, they often assume that the reader will already have a significant amount of existing knowledge on the topic. The authors may use discipline-specific terminology or reference developments or events that may be unfamiliar to those who do not have experience in the field. As a result, they can sometimes be challenging to understand for those who do not have a background in the field. Researchers and scholars write these articles to present new knowledge and further understanding of their field of study.

counterargument
Counterargument: Completely open borders would put our security at risk.
Response: The writer agrees that open borders could create some security problems. However, they argue that there are other ways to control the border without criminalizing immigrants.
This is the “emotional support “ typewriter I brought to the office today
Claim: Border policy should not criminalize undocumented immigrants.
The author believes that people sometimes cross the border illegally because they are in difficult or dangerous situations and want a better life for themselves and their families. The author understands that open borders could cause security problems, but believes there are better ways to handle immigration. Overall, the author thinks immigrants should be treated with respect, empathy, and understanding instead of being treated like criminals.

Definition of Bad Faith
Sometimes, this will make “community” important to our political (policy/management) conversations
In this day in age, we see a lot more of this in communities. A lot of communities will also have a shared political view on how things should work. I think this goes for the whole world but especially in America.
character traits that I have adopted
I feel like this is true for a lot of communities. You really do adopt different traits that come along with that community, weather you know or not. It makes you feel more connected with the community.
they build the history of those communities into their own personal history; and they see the world through the lens of those shared stories.
I never really thought about this statement and how true it is. When you are part of a community, you look back at that history and share those story's with other people. Looking back gives you a lot of information on what that community has gone though and what they are now.
You will hear “community” from the mouths of politicians, officials and other people with microphones in their hands. They speak of “the community” and how important it is to listen to, consult with or hear the voice of this strange collective thing
I think this is true when it comes to politicians and officials. They say it a lot to feel like they are part of the community they are representing and trying to voice for. For me however, I think when they use it so much the meaning of community go's away.
It is the process of telling a story about yourself that draws on the shared cultural story archetypes which creates and maintains a shared identity.
When I think of community I think about having shared identity like this quote suggests. That it is more about shared experiences than anything else.
The manifestations of this are that I take pride in showing people around the city. I feel slighted when people say horrible things about it. I feel at home whenever I hear a Geordie (Newcastle) accent (despite not having one myself). And so on.
Can people still be part of the community even if they aren't proud of it like the author is? I feel like even if you aren't proud of it what surrounds you really influences who you are.
It must be able to explain why “community” is different from other social groups — such as “society”, “family” or just a group of people.
I think this point is interesting. I believe that even a group of people can be your community or your family can be part of it since they create a sense of belonging.
You will never hear someone in this context say that “community” is a thing that can be ignored or should be feared. And you will, almost never, hear people say what they mean by “community”.
This is an interesting perspective that I have never heard before. I can see how community can be misused for bad. It kind of reminds me of how people fall into cults or bad leadership because they are lonely and promised the sense of community.
Claims of Value
Example: “Social media can be harmful to teenagers.” This is a claim of value because it gives an opinion about whether something is good or bad.
Claims of Fact
Example: “Temperatures around the world are increasing because of climate change.” This is a claim of fact because it can be supported or challenged using evidence and data.
Claims of Policy
Example: “Schools should allow students to use their phones during lunch.” This is a claim of policy because it suggests what schools should do.
It was so rude when that lady asked you what race you are.
Does whether this question is considered rude depend on the culture or country? Could it be rude in one culture but normal in another?
“Caffeine boosts performance.”
This is a claim of fact because it is something that can be proven through research and evidence. It is arguable because saying that caffeine “boosts performance” is very general. For example, I am from San Lucas Tolimán, Guatemala, where coffee is very common and people drink it at different times of the day, even at night. Since coming to the United States, I have often heard people say that coffee helps when you are tired or need more energy. This makes me question what “boosts performance” really means and whether it works the same for everyone.
Once the world was perfect, and we were happy in that world. Then we took it for granted.

‘Nam Sibyllam quidem Cumis ego ipse oculis meis vidi in ampulla pendere, et cum illi pueri dicerent: Σίβυλλα τί θέλεις; respondebat illa: ἀποθανεῖν θέλω.’
The Sybil's words reflect a distinction that I think is present in both Heart of Darkness and Metamorphoses. As the prophetess aged and succumbed to frailty, her size became progressively more diminished, eventually enabling her imprisonment in a jar or a cage. Such an environment implicates constricting containment in a physical sense, though this rigidity is contradicted by the human voice. Due to the Sybil's relationship with Greek deities, her words were recognized and revered for their prophetic excellence and foresight. So, while the Sybil was physically imprisoned, her words contained a transcendental wisdom - arguably able to provide an escape from the stagnation and befuddlement of humanity's pursuits. A similar phenomenon occurs in Heart of Darkness, in that Kurtz's disseminated voice becomes an entity distinct from his body. Marlow references his voice as one of "purity," even acknowledging that his wonder for Kurtz relies not necessarily in the man but rather in the unique and wondrous properties of his voice. Indeed, when Kurtz dies, his voice does seem to carry a permanence that surpasses not just his infirm body, but also the corruption and horrors of human nature - represented by the colonizers and the tribes throughout the story. Lastly, in Metamorphoses, the priestess discusses how the fates will bequeath her a voice, even in transformation, even in nonexistence. Together, these three examples seem to evince a similar dichotomy: the physical (in this case the waste land) is subject to cyclical corrosion and decay, while the voice remains elevated on a plane that is semi-divine. It is perhaps this that the poem investigates very closely: language, in its purity, can provide a panacea, though its efforts may be insufficient to find salvation for the physical. The human voice is indefatigable - the human body and soul are not.
‘Nam Sibyllam quidem Cumis ego ipse oculis meis vidi in ampulla pendere, et cum illi pueri dicerent: Σίβυλλα τί θέλεις; respondebat illa: ἀποθανεῖν θέλω.’
I found this line quite interesting upon reading the satyricon and ultimately I think it was a better choice to begin the text than the quote from Heart of Darkness. This is because I think this quote speaks to the overall themes of the text, those being a cultural stagnation and lack of spirituality, better than the other quote. In this, Trimalchio explains how he saw Sybil, the women who wished for eternal life without asking for eternal youth, in a cage, asking for death. I think this illustrates the idea that Elliot presents in the poem, that being that death is favorable to a life without purpose and spirituality. Thus, the people of England after World War 1 are likened to Sybil, trapped in cages, and better off dead than continuing their existences without faith.

“The adversaries are still [exploiting] basic principles or basic cyber hygiene principles that we are not following,” he said, referring to a recent FBI emphasis on 10 fundamental defensive measures like multifactor authentication.
How much of the risks would really be prevented if we implemented better cyber security practices.
“The wave is coming. I don’t think we’ve hit the crest yet,” Bilnoski said. “We see an exponential increase in the use of AI, whether it’s nation-state or criminal.”
If we are hearing everyone from Bill Gates to Jason Binoski say that AI is heralding our doom, why aren't we doing anything about it?
That experience fundamentally shifted my mindset: it is much easier to be compliant than secure. Human-led penetration testing remains valuable, but small-scoped, point-in-time assessments cannot match today’s threat velocity. A manual test conducted annually gives you 24 hours of confidence and 364 days of guesswork. In an AI-accelerated environment, the report may be stale before the ink dries.
Has this always been the case? Adversaries have generally been more adept. I agree that it speeds up threat actors capabilities, but threat actors have always been more adept.
ederal leaders risk falling victim to a modern cyber version of the McNamara Fallacy.

What is "operational reality"? I think for businesses, it is staying in the "green," so checking the boxes for programs and policies. Whereas, in the scope of the "defender's dilemma," the defenders users these programs and policies to their advantage.
Notice what happens if we find the ratio of the arc length divided by the radius of the circle. (5.1.10)Smaller circle: 12π2=14π(5.1.11)Larger circle: 34π3=14π

As with exponential models, data modeled by logarithmic functions are either always increasing or always decreasing as time moves forward.

4.7: Exponential and Logarithmic Models
This section would be better set up if you put the exponential growth/decay first, then the half-life/doubling-time. This is confusing to take notes from as it is and there's a lot of back-and-forth. The relation between y=a(b^x) and y=A_0e^(kt) was not made clear early enough.
Rewrite y=abx as y=aeln(bx). Use the power rule of logarithms to rewrite y as y=aexln(b)=aeln(b)x. Note that a=A0 and k=ln(b) in the equation y=A0ekx.
This should have been written at the beginning of the section.
Does a linear, exponential, or logarithmic model best fit the data in Table 4.7.2
With no 0-value, I used the ratio of two points fitted into y=ae^(kx), found that 3.297/24.365=(ae^k)/(ae^(5k) yields k=.5, then used that information and the first point to determine a=2. Not much practice doing this prior to now.

I think this needs to be expanded on and provided in the Prolog
Remember how one side had to argue and the other didn’t?
Will says:
I find this argument quite strong.
He can see the darkness in you, and it’s in response to behavior he can be 100% sure is righteous. So any doubt he had about you is erased.
Will says:
Good summation. It simplifies the multi-step game theory to something quite get-able.

Will says:

unless some part of him suspects you’re not? That he might be harming someone who doesn’t deserve it?
Will says:
Maybe. Though I suspect mostly it’s that he fears the darkness in himself and to convince himself he is good, he must point to others who are more bad. Just like you wrote earlier.
I agree (and fixed the wording a bit). The idea is that he fears that what he's doing is dark because you're redeemable / innocent. If you were just an object (like contempt says you are) then his behavior wouldn't feel dark.
He was judging you from the very state he was judging you for.
Will says:
He’s not calling you going against your conscience, that’s the second stranger right? So not sure if this stands.
My response: yes, he doesn't know he's doing it, but he's doing it. That's what makes this section so hard to write: we have to track that he knows that you knows that etc.
You could tell he’s the kind of person who does this too—things he knows are wrong, while pretending they’re not.
Will says:
Might need to explain this a little. Like the kind of person who’s disingenuous, or unforgiving?
Have you ever done something you knew was wrong at the time, but couldn’t fully admit to yourself until later?
Will says:
To be honest, no, I genuinely can't recall such an event. I think this needs to be softened to hook the reader. The “at the time” is the main problem here. Perhaps: have you ever done something you felt justified in doing at the time but it left a vaguely bad taste in your mouth for some reason
Critical Race Theory is “the intellectual and social movement and loosely organized framework of legal analysis based on the premise that race is not a natural, biologically grounded feature of physically distinct subgroups of human beings but a socially constructed (culturally invented) category that is used to oppress and exploit people of color. Critical race theorists hold that racism is inherent in the law and legal institutions of the United States insofar as they function to create and maintain social, economic, and political inequalities between whites and nonwhites, especially African Americans. Critical race theorists are generally dedicated to applying their understanding of the institutional or structural nature of racism to the concrete (if distant) goal of eliminating all race-based and other unjust hierarchies.” (Encyclopedia Brittanica, 2022)
Critical Race Theory is important to social work because it helps us understand how racism can go beyond individual beliefs and be built into systems and institutions. As a future social worker, this reminds me to consider how a client’s race and experiences with discrimination may affect their opportunities and access to resources. It also encourages me to advocate for fairness, challenge inequalities, and make sure my clients feel heard, respected, and supported.

Studies of individual nonhealth social policies, such as policies affecting education, unemploy-ment insurance, and old-age pensions, have also found robust relationships with health outcomes(e.g., Arno et al. 2011, Balaj et al. 2021, Chriqui et al. 2011, Etile 2014, Kuhn et al. 2020, Lundberget al. 2008, Meghir et al. 2018, Shahidi & Parnia 2021, Sjöberg 2014)
The paragraph assumes that social policies outside of healthcare can have a significant impact on people’s health. Policies related to education, unemployment, and pensions may influence things like financial stability, access to resources, and overall quality of life, which can ultimately affect health outcomes.
ublic health systems are organized and financed differently in different countries (as well as,often, different substate polities). But there has been little attention to the sources of variation inpublic health systems (as distinct from the literature on medical care systems), or indeed to theirimpact on population health. In a 2012 systematic review of the literature on public health systemsin the United States, Hyde & Shortell (2012) found that most studies evaluated the organizationalcharacteristics related to provision of ten Essential Public Services laid out by the WHO (WHOEurope 2012) but only rarely studied how these organizational characteristics were related to thesystems’ performance in terms of service delivery or public health outcomes.
The paragraph assumes that the way a public health system is organized and provides services may influence how well it performs and the health outcomes of the population. It also assumes that simply having the recommended public health services does not necessarily mean that a system is effective.

One geographically based metric is the rate differencebetween the highest and lowest county life expectan-cies or age-adjusted mortality rates in a state. America’sHealth Rankings introduced a measure in 2008 on thevariation in mortality among counties in each state (27)
I think this is a useful way to identify health disparities because it shows how much life expectancy and mortality can vary between different counties within the same state. Looking at these differences can help communities understand where additional health resources or interventions may be needed. I wonder which factors could contribute to such large differences in mortality rates between counties?
The age-adjusted mortality rate allowscomparison of mortality across different populations. Onemay also calculate mortality rate for a group in a popula-tion on the basis of a specific characteristic, such as age,sex, or geographic area, to yield a characteristic-specificmortality rate.
I think age-adjusted mortality rates are useful because they allow us to make more accurate comparisons between populations that may have different age distributions. Looking at specific characteristics like age, sex, or geographic location can also help identify which groups may be experiencing higher health risks. How could nurses use this information to identify health disparities and improve care within a specific population?
Population health aims to support the health of people through diverseactivities, including care coordination, health care research, population-level data analysis, and healthprogramming. Activities carried out to improve population health generally support the health status and healthoutcomes of groups of people rather than one client at a time
This stood out to me because population health focuses on improving the health of an entire group rather than treating one patient at a time. I think care coordination and population-level data are especially important because they can help identify common health problems, health disparities, and areas where communities need more support. As nurses, this reminds us that our role can extend beyond individual patient care to helping improve health outcomes across a larger population.
Nurses play a central role in advancing population health; however, many nurses and the public may be unaware ofthe vital contributions of population health to client well-being.
Yes, this is so accurate! I got my first undergraduate degree in public health, and it is all-encompassing. It is a very interesting shift to go from learning about macro health to conditions on an individual level. I feel like we are learning the physical and pharmacological aspects of nursing, but an individual's health involves so much more than just the issue at hand. As nurses, we must look at the patient using a holistic mindset, as opposed to the medical model. When I was deciding between pursuing the PA vs. NP route, I chose nursing for this very reason. We have to look at psychosocial factors and social determinants of health to truly understand our patients.
find a sustainable solution to reduce carbon emissions without having to sacrifice the modern lifestyle?
A solution to reduce carbon emissions can be using solar power instead of burning fossil fuels
Decreasing forests reduces the amount of carbon locked up in trees.
This sentence shows that less trees equals less carbon.
Methane is a much "stronger" greenhouse gas
This states that Methane is a stronger gas than carbon dioxide.
Suppose the car analysis will run each month on 100,000 new rows with the same fields. The team must calculate the same group counts, inspect rows behind its claims, and write the report wording.
Again, I'm not sure why you would be running this check multiple times. If you always reported accuracy in the past n months of the cars with all the data, you'd better need a really strong prior to believe that you should filter out these exact training data matches, otherwise you're just p-hacking by doing multiple hypothesis testing (like treating each month as as new hypothesis for changing your reporting)
You can ask it to calculate, inspect records, trace code, or question an interpretation.
This sounds like you want the human to plan out exactly what computation to do and then asks the AI to do it. I feel like it's somewhat valid to just ask the AI the investigation question and then prompt based on what it gives you back.
After your first look, how convinced are you by the proposed method? What is your judgment based on?
I don't know if this is intended, but my first reaction to whether or not I would trust this paper didn't actually involve opening up the paper at all. It just involved going to Google Scholar and looking at where the paper was published and seeing that it has 1100 citations. I think if it was published in a good conference in 2021 and it has that many citations, it's probably trustworthy.
delegation scenario
What is the delegation scenario?
Edit: Oh, I see now. It refers to step 4. I don't think we should call it the delegation scenario. It's kind of unclear.
Why did you use AI or work without it? If you used AI, show one exchange and explain how your checks affected what you did next.
Again, there's no way that you're going to allow people to not use AI here, right?
besides the session transcript
I don't think the teammate should read the session transcript. When you communicate results, I think you should be the meat proxy between your LLM and the person you are communicating to. Ideally, they would be unable to tell that you used an LLM at all
If you use AI,
Why is using AI optional?
Your goal is to learn the method well enough to explain it without notes or recommend a model for a team to use. Choose one goal.
I feel like the goal should just be to recommend a model for the team to use, and what you're looking for is that the student should try to understand the model well. Though I think this also overlaps strongly with scenario 2, so you could delete it.
Name one part of your chosen investigation you might need help understanding, and explain how that could affect your approach.
What does this mean? Need help understanding in what way?
Lab 1: decide what to report
Overall, I think there is too much text right now to read.
Your job is to decide which accuracy results the team should report and how to describe them.
To me, when I see 87.8% and 86.2% so close together, I want to calculate the error bars on each of the individual accuracy scores (e.g. like the 95% Wilson confidence interval). If the error bars are on the order of 1% already just from re-sampling the data, then I personally wouldn't spend all that time trying to figure out which accuracy score to report, and I would just report either one of them with the error bars included, since it's just a difference of noise anyways.
What the supplied results can support Use the supplied binary labels in your conclusions. The packet has no numeric MPG measurements. The development set is available for inspection and model comparisons. The project has no untouched test set, so report comparisons as exploratory development results. A higher development accuracy supports a comparison on these rows under the recorded settings. It does not establish a causal relationship between a feature and fuel economy, performance on present-day cars, or the value of using the model for a purchasing decision.
I feel like we can delete this text. This should be common sense for the student / something that staff can catch during checkoffs if e.g. they claim a causal relationship or something, and it's not directly related to the data description.
finds the closest training car
so it's a 1-NN model (k=1). Might be good to just state that directly.
Edit: Oh, I see. There is a flag to change the value of k. I think this should be clarified up front.
development
validation? why development?
Each feature is scaled by its training-set standard deviation so its numeric units do not alone determine the distance.
Does this just mean that each feature is normalized, or do you not subtract the mean?
Read what the model does and the data description.
Don't hyperlink here. It makes it seem like it's going to open up a new external page or tab
reusable script
I don't see why the recurring script would be doing today's calculation though. The choice of whether to report with or without the exact training data matches should be a one-time decision, and then the recurring script should just always report with or without.
200 features. A schema summary or transformation audit could help, but the student should name a specific output and check. Generated summaries do not settle whether the features or evaluation fit the intended use.
I feel like with 200 features you probably want to have the AI go through the features and help you filter down to a few that are more interesting that you can take a closer look at.
The student names the algorithm class and a task they can check. A small worked example or a trusted reference implementation may help. Learning enough to check the method can be the first step.
I think even more generally, learning the algorithm should be the first step. It might not be possible to verify the algorithm if it's like using a transformer or something.
What the team should report
Even ignoring the confidence interval thing, I feel like there's a right answer here, and the right answer is just to report the entire data set that you use for evaluation. I feel like the null hypothesis should be that you report everything and you need a reason to leave out the 11 cars with an exact training match. Comparing the matched records shows that it's not training data leakage, and cars with identical feature match in the training data don't necessarily have the same label.
Imagine you go up to your boss and you're like, "Hey, our model might do 87.8% good, and it might do 86.2% good, and this is with slightly different evaluation settings, which I don't really have a good concrete reason why I excluded some for the second statistic." I feel like you should just make a claim, state your uncertainty (ideally, quantitatively with error bars), and then take responsibility for the claim.
Two drifts to catch early. A student who starts improving the model, adding model_year or changing the neighbor count, has left the reporting question; the lab is about which cars a score describes, and a model change needs new predictions and its own evaluation rows. A student who asks AI to repeat the supplied arithmetic needs a reason that recount bears on the proposal, since the counts are given and correct.
Probably no one is going to be this dumb, and your staff are smart enough to call out either of these proposals as bs
Single-blind: Only researcher knows who is being assigned to what group. Double-blind: Both the researcher and the participants don't know which group the participants will be put into.
A random sample is a subset of a larger population in which every member of the population has an equal chance of being selected. With random assignment, all participants have an equal chance of being assigned to either group.
Illusory correlations, or false correlations, occur when people believe that relationships exist between two things when no such relationship exists.
Longitudinal research: A research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. Very informative, but incredible time and financial investment. Sometimes, both participants and researcher cannot see these projects to their end. High attrition rate (reduction in the number of research participants due to dropouts)
In cross-sectional research, a researcher compares multiple segments of the population at the same time.
Archival research: Using existing records or data sets to try to answer various research questions, like looking for interesting patterns or relationships.
Surveys: List of questions to be answered by participants. Not the most accurate, but very good for getting a lot of information from a large sample size.
Naturalistic Observation is where the researcher will observe the subjects' behavior in its natural environment. Observer bias is a major problem in this type of research, where the subjects might change their behavior just because they are being watched.
Clinical/Case Studies are where scientists focus on one person or just a few individuals for their observational research.
they do not show that Go is as fast as Rust or Zig
Of course they don't. Go, Rust, and Zig are programming languages. Programming languages are neither fast nor slow. They're languages. They're inert. The author is conflating programming languages with compilers (or, really, compiler output), i.e. programming language implementations.

We can see how widely the half-lives for these substances vary. Knowing the half-life of a substance allows us to calculate the amount remaining after a specified time. We can use the formula for radioactive decay: (4.6.4)A(t)=A0eln(0.5)Tt(4.6.5)A(t)=A0eln(0.5)tT(4.6.6)A(t)=A0(eln(0.5))tT(4.6.7)A(t)=A0(12)tT

Listen to Kevin Stoller
Kevin's discussion of learning environments was very helpful. I agree with having your own space to interact, collaborate, and work together. Also, I liked the discussion about how your desk is placed in your classroom. and on having enough room to walk between students' desks. It is a must-do. The reason is that I have been in so many classrooms, while subbing, and I can definitely tell a difference. And the one thing I like about subbing is being in the room where the students can see you, and you can see them. It makes it much easier to see what they are actually doing.
Room Arrangement: Middle & High School pa
This was very helpful for arranging your classroom. The one I liked was the table arrangement. for high school. because it allows students to work in groups in the classroom rather than move their desks closer together.
Listen to two HS teachers discuss how desk placement plays a role in classroom management
I like this video. It is a great discussion on how to arrange your desk in the classroom.

Also read this prompt, right?

appears smaller, allso i didnt mean to set my name to that i meant to set that as my passcode.
The response begins
As a reader, I feel like I start entering into the timeline and technical component without really understanding the context or what the real issues of concern are.
Therefore I would suggest putting in as a second slide some context before you go into 'The response begins"
I suggest the context cover:
First, I think you need a new slide something simple that helps the reader to understand the problem that satellite damage assessments solve, their limitations, and why that poses challenges to responders. For example, what used to happen after an earthquake (before we had these type of assessments)? What do these assessments help with (ie. to determine where to deploy SAR, potential people in need humanitarian assistance)? What are the downsides of satellite damage assessments (ie. foreshadow why you can have assessments that come up with such different levels of building damage, or why it might show a building damaged when it's not), And therefore why is it a challenge for humanitarian's that there are so many assessments now?
2) You need to briefly explain what the Centre's role was in Venezuela (later you reference a 'viewer') and its connection to Copernicus EMS. Otherwise you go straight into Copernicus and the reader doesn't understand why.
For evaluators: keep testing this methodology across different crises, and build the system that makes it routine: a required specification for contributed products (analysed extent, metadata, a common building base) and a standing way for providers to contribute into a shared space, so that combining and evaluating starts the day the first product arrives rather than weeks later.
I didn't really understand this one, but as long as it's using language that evaluators understand that's fine.
For responders and response coordinators
Make each 'audience' in bold or brighter so it stands out.
but the reference is silent
What do you mean by 'reference is silent'
(three of the six reach a Spearman ρ of 0.7 or more against the Copernicus EMS ordering)
maybe put in the technical brief unless you think this will be widely understood.
and it needs a shared picture of who has looked where to work.
? Meaning this is what we provided through the 'viewer' that can put all the assessments together?
During this response, an ad hoc viewer our team stood up within days let responders see who had looked where. It filled part of the gap, not all of it, and nothing had planned for it.
This feels like it comes out of nowhere and it needs some clarity eg. "who had looked where" - meaning responders to see what satellite data was available? Part of what gap and what does 'nothing had planned for it'.
Perhaps this needs to be part of the beginning context - because this is the first time we're seeing what role the Centre had this.
the same area
Same area or had the same coverage? Cause there is a place where all six overlap.
out-rank every single one of them.
Maybe this sentence could be reworded, I had to read it a few times to understand it.
The conclusion at the bottom of the graph is good and should be its own box to the side. Also does using the assessments then help to overcome the issue raised in the slide above that ranking by neighborhood only works where it's in an area already known to be damaged? If so, I think it should be clearer that by using the assessments together you can use it not only within a neighborhood to identify with greater confidence what buildings are damaged, but also in areas where you may not have an EMT deployed yet (presumably).
Postscript :) I see you then go back into the neighborhoods with the next slide.
Ranking orders that zone; it does not find one, and it never names a building.
This didn't make sense to me, so perhaps it needs to be reworded.
One caveat carries through: this holds inside an area already known to be badly hit.
This part of the answer is good but then the caveat confused me - meaning we couldn't say the same for another area where EMS weren't on the ground verifying?
The Answer and the blurb at the bottom of the graph "Even on the most generous reading..." Is good. It needs to be its own box and pulled out. The answer is too buried. I want to see the answer and analysis before I look at the graph - it helps the reader to understand it.
Even here, on identical buildings, the six count anywhere from 5,362 to 25,882 damaged.
Very good, it gives an idea of the challenge.
It took me a few reads to get this and I wonder if it's just a placement issue. I wonder if this would be better placed in the next section after the questions and before the baseline - meaning the first step is looking at where the assessments can be compared in relation to where Copernicus was operating.
I would also suggest deleting "manual mapping on very-high resolution imagery, not modeling). I don't think it's necessary to understand the story and so anywhere you can cut technical detail I would.
A stack of assessments of the same disaster: PDFs, shapefiles, dashboards. Different methods, different extents, and answers from 9,635 to 163,225 damaged buildings, a factor of seventeen. Which do you act on?
This is great, but give a bit more info as to why this is hard for humanitarians.
The S&R audience probably have a pretty good idea, but for those providing these assessments giving them a clear picture of why this is difficult - the types of decisions that have to be made and why having different assessments makes that harder – will be very helpful and eye opening to them. You want to give this audience the "ah-ha moment" now I get it why this would be hard.
Two further products arrived in the same window but are not evaluated here: HOT's fAIr, an AI-plus-crowd product that publishes no analysed extent, so its misses and false alarms cannot be counted fairly; and DISHA (UN Global Pulse), which is licence-restricted and covers less than half of the shared strip.
This is quite technical, you could perhaps streamline to "Two further products arrived in the same window but are not evaluated here" and then put the note more detailed explanation in the methodology. The fuller explanation interrupts the flow.
74,705
suggest inserting "buildings" after the figure to keep it consistent with previous slides.
AOIs
spell this out. There's a lot of acronyms so avoid where you can.
relating detected damage to debris tonnage
Not sure I understand this? Meaning it detects where there is debris tonnage or the data that comes from it giving an estimate of debris tonnage based on the damage?
I’m not sure a genre is a destination so much as a way of thinking, a tendency of inquiry.
I personally like this because genre isn't just a type of writing that we read. It shows how we can change the ways we read something and think about what we are reading. It helps us as reader and writers think about what we want to explore.
he had read Faulkner’s novel three times and still didn’t understand it. Faulkner said, “Read it four times.” Some pieces just aren’t going to be meaningful to you.
Not every writing you will read will make sense to everyone. When you read something more than once you still won't be able to connect to it and that is okay.
Short story writers study poetry to learn form and infuse their sentences with sound and rhythm. Playwrights read memoir and nonfiction to hear how different people speak, and for inspiration and content.
This demonstrates how writers improve their writing by looking into all kinds of writing. The short story writers use poetry when looking to understand sounds and rhythms of short stories. This also shows how different types of writing can inspire you.
They never forgot
They don't forget what happens because it is a traumatic experience no one pays any mind to.

In life, people move on, even when horrible atrocities or cruel things happen in the world- people move on.
