is there anyone out here who does zettelkasten etc in multiple languages? how do you determine atomicity? is an idea's translation equivalent to itself? when do you/what prompts you to connect an idea to one in a different language?

Brilliant, maybe we should say form each according to their ability to each according to their need.

This is the ritual prescribed in the book of Rites ctext.org/dictionary.pl?if=e…
- In traditional Vietnamese wedding processions, (particularly in Central Vietnam), two children lead the procession, each carrying a goose symbolizing the mandarin duck, a traditional emblem of fidelity and an enduring bond between the bride and groom.💁‍♂️🪿🪿 #Vietnam #Vietnamese

There is no way this many people are eating foie gras regularly. A lot of you are just pro-cruelty on principle.

In Serbia, @avucic has conceded defeat. The Students’ List has won an absolute majority in the elections. Celebrations have begun in the streets across Serbia. Sound familiar?

& please dont take this as me saying anything negative about the make-a-wish foundation. this is me saying something negative about the way we speak to children & young people and the way that societally we only really value them as potential and not as people in their own right.

Maybe my last quiz was too hard. Here's a simpler version. First person to identify all these minority scripts wins the gorgeous 2027 Endangered Alphabets calendar. And please back my new groundbreaking Kickstarter at kickstarter.com/projects/end… !

This is so intelligent, I want to cry: The 140 seats won by the student opposition against Serbia's nationalist government party will be taken up not by students, but by academics, professors & public figures from pre-chosen pool of 250 experts, selected by student plenums.

Genocide is wrong because it is wrong, not because it is expensive for Americans. The longer we allow these disgusting talking points which center US comfort rather than the lives of those enduring atrocities, the longer we will find support for these atrocities
New Abdul El Sayed ad is brilliant The question for Americans is this: How long do you want to bleed lives and treasure because your corrupt politicians have sold their souls to the lobby of a foreign country rests on racist thugs so–called Israel?

One of Lula’s most important and least well-known achievements is US capacity to sanction it into compliance is limited, because unlike Europe, Brazilians don’t need Visa or Mastercard to make payments.
JUST IN: Trump threatens to tariff Brazil unless they redo their election

hahaha wow, never thought i'd see an ad like this in my life
“Honey we can’t buy eggs, we have to set aside $7 to bomb the kids in Gaza. Remember?” Abdul El-Sayed is absolutely crushing it. This is the most brilliant ad of all time 👏🏼

feel like an underexamined reason people are addicted to LLMs is less that they can't think but that they're overwhelmed by choice and just want a "definitive" option handed to them with the aura of "authority/analysis" (from the training data or whatever) behind it

When bird flu spread through a Utah mink farm, the government should’ve ordered it to cull its mink, experts say. But the state never seriously considered it. A fur trade representative warned that doing so would kill the industry. propublica.org/article/bird-…

Bought two mislabelled vintage photo albums which turn out to be old Japanese photographs. One is of a high school during WWII, the other, of some sort of Buddhist pilgrimage in the 1960s. Does anyone know someone who collects this sort of thing?

Are you effin kidding me. This is about as big an attack vector as it gets against 2FA.
We got Microsoft Authenticator to hand over account tokens to a fake Teams app. The app needed zero Android permissions. It just claimed to be Teams, and Authenticator never checked who was actually asking. The result: full delegated access to mailbox, files, and calendar through Microsoft Graph.

The Internet has done a lot of good and all but social media has really just allowed people to reshape the historiography of moments that are not just within living memory but within the last 20 years of it as being utterly alien to what they actually were.
Gays literally did this with Obama though. Gay marriage didn't happen because we refused to vote for Democrats until they gave it to us, it happened because we were loyal to them and convinced them that gay marriage was a good thing for them to support.
