    1. If easy-to-use software like Signal somehow became inaccessible, the security of millions of Americans (including elected officials and members of the armed forces) would be negatively affected.

    1. The key change here is the removal of an intent to defraud and replacing it with willfully; it will be illegal to share this information as long as you have any reason to know someone else might use it for unauthorized computer access.It is troublesome to consider the unintended consequences resulting from this small change.
    2. The problem is that it is that the laws themselves change the very definition of a criminal and put many innocent professionals at risk.
    3. As serious leaks become more common, surely we can expect tougher laws. But these laws are also making it difficult for those of us who wish to improve security by studying actual data. For years we have fought increasingly restrictive laws but the government’s argument has always been that it would only affect criminals.
    1. Another approach I toyed with (very transiently) was blocking entire countries from accessing the API. I was always really hesitant to do this, but when 90% of the API traffic was suddenly coming from a country in West Africa, for example, that was a pretty quick win.
    1. The term has also been borrowed by the computing community to refer to the refusal of service to legitimate users when administrators take blanket preventative measures against some individuals who are abusing systems. For example, Realtime Blackhole Lists used to combat email spam generally block ranges of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses rather than individual IPs associated with spam, which can deny legitimate users within those ranges the ability to send email to some domains.

    1. On pointe souvent le fait que les manuels scolaires alourdissent les cartables des élèves. Ils pèsent aussi sur les budgets et ne sont pas simples à renouveler quand les changements de programme scolaire s’accélèrent – en témoignent les débats dans les régions au sujet de l’achat des prochains ouvrages pour le lycée, en phase avec la réforme du bac.

    2. Ouvrage papier regroupant une somme de connaissances d’une discipline, le manuel est une « fausse évidence historique » comme l’a écrit Alain Choppin, pionnier des études à ce sujet. En effet, outil scolaire aux multiples facettes, il se situe à l’interface entre l’institution et les enseignants, entre les élèves et l’enseignant, entre les familles et l’institution. C’est aussi un produit commercial car, en France, l’édition scolaire est un marché économique de premier plan, représentant 14 % du chiffre d’affaires annuel du secteur.

    3. les éditeurs scolaires alertent les pouvoirs publics sur la complexité de renouveler à une telle cadence l’ensemble des manuels. La question du financement est posée dans le premier comme le second degré. Certaines régions envisagent un désengagement dans l’achat des manuels et souhaitent passer au tout numérique afin d’éviter les nouvelles dépenses.

      l'impression papier est longue (rédaction, mise en page, impression) et lourde financièrement. passer au support numérique serait plus rapide et simple pour les éditeurs et moins chers pour la Région. Article ALVES Sarah sur l'évolution du travail des enseignants par le numérique

    1. Four databases of citizen science and crowdsourcing projects —  SciStarter, the Citizen Science Association (CSA), CitSci.org, and the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars (the Wilson Center Commons Lab) — are working on a common project metadata schema to support data sharing with the goal of maintaining accurate and up to date information about citizen science projects.  The federal government is joining this conversation with a cross-agency effort to promote citizen science and crowdsourcing as a tool to advance agency missions. Specifically, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), in collaboration with the U.S. Federal Community of Practice for Citizen Science and Crowdsourcing (FCPCCS),is compiling an Open Innovation Toolkit containing resources for federal employees hoping to implement citizen science and crowdsourcing projects. Navigation through this toolkit will be facilitated in part through a system of metadata tags. In addition, the Open Innovation Toolkit will link to the Wilson Center’s database of federal citizen science and crowdsourcing projects.These groups became aware of their complementary efforts and the shared challenge of developing project metadata tags, which gave rise to the need of a workshop.  

      Sense Collective's Climate Tagger API and Pool Party Semantic Web plug-in are perfectly suited to support The Wilson Center's metadata schema project. Creating a common metadata schema that is used across multiple organizations working within the same domain, with similar (and overlapping) data and data types, is an essential step towards realizing collective intelligence. There is significant redundancy that consumes limited resources as organizations often perform the same type of data structuring. Interoperability issues between organizations, their metadata semantics and serialization methods, prevent cumulative progress as a community. Sense Collective's MetaGrant program is working to provide a shared infastructure for NGO's and social impact investment funds and social impact bond programs to help rapidly improve the problems that are being solved by this awesome project of The Wilson Center. Now let's extend the coordinated metadata semantics to 1000 more organizations and incentivize the citizen science volunteers who make this possible, with a closer connection to the local benefits they produce through their efforts. With integration into Social impact Bond programs and public/private partnerships, we are able to incentivize collective action in ways that match the scope and scale of the problems we face.

    1. students quite often reported choosing their major based on taking introductory courses with particularly dynamic professors.
    1. Because documentation of student learning impacts may not reflect the core objectives of all CTLs — and because this investigation is resource-intensive

      Measuring impact of on student learning outcomes is resource-intensive. This makes me think of the Tracer project.

    2. “What are you most proud of?”

      Great question prompt to find out how CTLs are impacting universities at the organizational level.

    3. These guidelines offer a lens that is distinct to our field and represent emergent directions in our work that are important to capture, particularly larger-scale change initiatives in alignment with college and university priorities.

      CTLs need guidelines for evaluation of their work. In the last two years, more research is beginning to emerge on how to analyze the unique impacts of CTLs.

    1. on la finalidad de identificar las características principales de los megaproyectos que se han implementado o buscado implementar en Ciudad de México, así como destacar los impactos socioterritoriales de los mismos, analizamos algunos estudios de caso realizados en la última década sobre estas obras, los cuales están basados en trabajo de campo (Pérez Negrete, 2010, 2013; Moreno Carranco, 2008; Duhau y Giglia, 2008) y/o en fuentes documentales y hemerográficas (Alfie, 2013; Morales Guzmán, 2014; 2017).

      En base a su investigación ¿Qué otros tipos de técnicas recomendaría para la evaluación de los impactos de los mega proyectos en el territorio?
