WIST Quotations

A quotation from Christopher Marlowe

Come live with me, and be my love,
   And we will all the pleasures prove,
That valleys, groves, hills and fields,
   Woods, or steepy mountain yields.
 
And we will sit upon the rocks,
 Seeing the shepherds feed their flocks
By shallow rivers, to whose falls
 Melodious birds sing madrigals.

Christopher "Kit" Marlowe (1564-1593) English dramatist and poet
“The Passionate Shepherd to His Love,” st. 1-2 (1599 pub.)

Just to be clear, when #Republicans say "#proposal" here, what they mean is that there is a measure buried deep within amendments to funding for the Department of the Interior that threatens #Kennedy #Center with loss of all Federal funding UNLESS they rename to the 'First Lady #Melania #Trump Opera House'.

It's tied to their funding because the GOP know that there is NO FUCKING WAY Kennedy Center would ever agree with this without having a big fucking stick waved over their heads.

It's buried deep in Department of the Interior funding amendments IN HOPES THAT NOBODY ELSE WILL NOTICE THEM WAVING THE STICK.

What a bunch of cowardly, fragile fucking flowers.

If you are working on that @pyohio proposal to submit by this weekend, and are wondering how you should structure your proposal, here are a few pointers:

- Think about what you want to share. Is there a problem you solved using Python? Something piqued your curiosity?

- Who is your intended audience? It can be beginner, intermediate, advanced, or a combination.

- What will the attendees get out of your talk? Is there something new that they will learn that they did not know before?

I am sure there are other pointers. What else do you think makes a great proposal? 🤔

Remember that the CFP for PyOhio closes this weekend.

I'll also tag @darnell@darnell.day @darnell@darnell.moe @darnell@darnell.ooo @darnell@one.darnell.one @darnelltv since they celebrated #FediverseDay last year, 2024.

In any case, my proposal is May 18th since it was on this day in 2008 when Evan, the father of the Fediverse, sent the first message.

#Putin thanked #Trump and effectively #refused a #ceasefire. #Moscow openly #rejected the #US-#Ukraine 30-day #truce #proposal, calling it a tactic for #Ukrainian regrouping.

Putin demanded #surrender of Ukraine’s forces in #Kursk and elimination of the ‘root causes’:

1. Ukraine’s desire for #independence.
2. The #EU membership.
3. And #NATO aspirations.

It's partially aligning with Trump's stance.

Something I wrote in the W3C Authentic Web Mini Workshop’s Zoom chat:


Another implicit assumption (flaw) that is often a part of "purely technical solutions" is the neglect or ignorance (innocent naïveté) of existing technical solutions.

A technical proposal should not be praised for what it claims to solve.

A technical proposal must be evaluated by what marginal difference or advantage does it provide over existing technologies.

Any technical proposal that ignores prior technologies is itself doomed to be ignored by the next technical proposal.


In addition to the slide presentations (links to come) in the mini workshop and Zoom verbal discussion which was minuted (link to come), there was a lot of very interesting discussion in the Zoom chat, which was not minuted. Sometimes such quick back & forth can help inspire summarizing of points which one had not previously written down.

I was encouraged by a fellow workshop participant to blog this one so here it is!
