All living things on the planet Earth, from microbes to whales, can be categorized into a single hierarchical system.  This system has been developed over the last 300 years. Layers have been added, and there have been debates as to what creatures should go where. However, it has proved an incredibly useful way to understand how all life is connected.

#167 – You worked hard. You followed the guidance. You poured hours into your essay… and still didn't get the mark you hoped for. If that sounds familiar, this episode is for you. In this episode, I'm unpacking the only two reasons why your essay grades aren't higher—and why these problems have nothing to do with your intelligence, effort or potential. You'll learn how misunderstanding the question and writing at the wrong level are the most common (and fixable) reasons students lose marks. I'll walk you through the signs to look out for, the types of feedback that hint at these issues and the specific study skills that can turn things around. Whether you're aiming to pass confidently or push your marks higher, this episode will help you close the gap between the grade you got and the one you deserve.

Today we are joined by physicist and philosopher Emily Adlam for her first appearance on Theories of Everything to challenge one of the deepest assumptions in science: that time flows. In this thought-provoking conversation, Adlam presents her “all-at-once” view of physics, where the universe is more like a completed Sudoku puzzle than a film playing forward. We explore the measurement problem in quantum mechanics, the role of the observer, the illusion of causality, and why these foundational questions demand both philosophical clarity and scientific precision.

No te quepa la menor duda: La llegada del coche autónomo será el principio del fin del automóvil tal y como lo conocemos. ¿Eso es bueno o malo? Es lo que vamos a ver en este video. ¿Tardará mucho o poco? También lo veremos porque hay mucho que contar… Pero te digo una cosa el día que llegue la popularización del coche autónomo… nada será igual… Antes de comenzar permitid que os haga una reflexión: Este video pretende ser una base para reflexionar, discrepar y abrir un debate sobre el tema… porque en este caso, os diría que más que nunca, me interesa vuestra opinión. En el tema citado de los vehículos autónomos, los niveles de autonomía propuestos en 2016 por la SAE siguen siendo vigentes y se publicaron en un informe de sencillo nombre… eufemismo… denominado “Taxonomy and Definitions for Terms Related to On-Road Motor Vehicle Automated Driving Systems”. Son 6 niveles van de 0 a 6 y vamos a detallarlos: Nivel 0. El coche emite avisos, pero no controla el vehículo. Nivel 1. El conductor comparte el control con el propio vehículo, pero de forma parcial. Un ejemplo podría ser el control de crucero adaptativo. Nivel 2. El sistema automatizado toma el control total del vehículo pero el conductor debe supervisar la conducción y estar preparado para intervenir inmediatamente. Nivel 3. El conductor puede desviar su atención de las tareas de conducción de forma segura, por ejemplo, el conductor puede enviar mensajes de texto o ver una película… pero debe seguir estando preparado para intervenir. Nivel 4. Como en el 3, salvo que no se requiere la atención del conductor que, por ejemplo, se podría echar a dormir. Nivel 5. Nivel máximo, no se requiere intervención humana alguna más allá de decir a dónde queremos ir… se trata de un vehículo robotizado. Un coche autónomo puede saber conducir, pero ¿cómo puede reaccionar ante lo imprevisto? Y es que es muy difícil enfrentarse al mayor agente de caos y confusión que existe sobre la tierra: El Ser Humano. No es fácil tomar decisiones ante un conductor que realiza maniobras anárquicas por la razón que sea. Pero es que tampoco lo es reaccionar a una persona que decide bloquear el paso a nuestro coche porque no está en sus cabales… Y de esto saben mucho las empresas que ya están usando coches autónomos como taxis sin conductor. Son los llamados robotaxis. El sueño de muchas empresas tecnológicas y de transporte de pasajeros. Imagínate un montón de taxis trabajando todo el día, sin pagar conductores… Lo cierto es que empresas como Waymo o Cruise ya están operando en algunas ciudades de EEUU y, aunque con incidentes aislados, están mostrando cifras de siniestralidad prometedoras… Pero claro, circulan en zonas de servicio concretas. Queda por ver qué pasaría si los implantáramos al mismo nivel que los taxis o VTC en zonas de servicio muy variadas. Y ojo, porque se ha empezado con los robotaxis… Pero estoy casi seguro que la mensajería y el transporte será el siguiente sector a “robotizar”. En este punto, si eres conductor de taxis, VTC o transportista, me encantaría que nos dejaras en comentarios situaciones que has vivido y que, seguramente, no resolvería un vehículo autónomo. Igual las compartimos en un próximo vídeo… Hay expertos que están en contra. Nada menos que Luis Montoro, nada menos que presidente de FESVIAL (Fundación Española para la Seguridad Vial), muestra sus dudas con el coche autónomo… En una intervención reciente dijo: “Queda mucho por hacer para llegar al del coche autónomo de nivel 5. Las tecnologías necesarias son muy complejas, caras, vulnerables y con alto nivel de mantenimiento, por lo que habrá que plantearse si son viables y rentables”. Su intervención daría para otro vídeo. Lo cierto es que la popularización del coche autónomo supondría un cambio de paradigma absoluto en lo que al automóvil se refiere… eso de “¿Te gusta conducir?” carecería de sentido y para mí, de alguna forma, sería el fin de las marcas Premium. ¿Por qué? Porque los coches serían simples salones con ruedas. Asuntos como la motorización, tipo de frenos, suspensiones, instrumentación, cambio… todo eso carecerá de importancia… la clave será una buena gestión del sistema autónomo y un interior acogedor, con buenas butucas y una pantalla de plasma gigante para ver la “tele” mientras viajamos… Por eso me parece una estupidez que las marcas, sobre todo las Premium, se muestren tan entusiastas con los coches autónomos…. Que juegan en su contra. Es tirar piedras contra su tejado. En este vídeo contamos con la colaboración de Airbnb. Te voy a contar algunas experiencias que he tenido disfrutando de sus servicios, que seguro te van a dar buenas ideas a la hora de viajar.

On this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop welcomes Jessica Talisman, a senior information architect deeply immersed in the worlds of taxonomy, ontology, and knowledge management. The conversation spans the evolution of libraries, the shifting nature of public and private access to knowledge, and the role of institutions like the Internet Archive in preserving digital history. They also explore the fragility of information in the digital age, the ongoing battle over access to knowledge, and how AI is shaping—and being shaped by—structured data and knowledge graphs. To connect with Jessica Talisman, you can reach her via LinkedIn.  Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:05 – Libraries, Democracy, Public vs. Private Knowledge Jessica explains how libraries have historically shifted between public and private control, shaping access to knowledge and democracy.00:10 – Internet Archive, Cyberattacks, Digital Preservation Stewart describes visiting the Internet Archive post-cyberattack, sparking a discussion on threats to digital preservation and free information.00:15 – AI, Structured Data, Ontologies, NIH, PubMed Jessica breaks down how AI trains on structured data from sources like NIH and PubMed but often lacks alignment with authoritative knowledge.00:20 – Linked Data, Knowledge Graphs, Semantic Web, Tim Berners-Lee They explore how linked data enables machines to understand connections between knowledge, referencing the vision behind the semantic web.00:25 – Entity Management, Cataloging, Provenance, Authority Jessica explains how libraries are transitioning from cataloging books to managing entities, ensuring provenance and verifiable knowledge.00:30 – Digital Dark Ages, Knowledge Loss, Corporate Control Stewart compares today's deletion of digital content to historical knowledge loss, warning about the fragility of digital memory.00:35 – War on Truth, Book Bans, Algorithmic Bias, Censorship They discuss how knowledge suppression—from book bans to algorithmic censorship—threatens free access to information.00:40 – AI, Search Engines, Metadata, Schema.org, RDF Jessica highlights how AI and search engines depend on structured metadata but often fail to prioritize authoritative sources.00:45 – Power Over Knowledge, Open vs. Closed Systems, AI Ethics They debate the battle between corporations, governments, and open-source efforts to control how knowledge is structured and accessed.00:50 – Librarians, AI Misinformation, Knowledge Organization Jessica emphasizes that librarians and structured knowledge systems are essential in combating misinformation in AI.00:55 – Future of Digital Memory, AI, Ethics, Information Access They reflect on whether AI and linked data will expand knowledge access or accelerate digital decay and misinformation.Key InsightsThe Evolution of Libraries Reflects Power Struggles Over Knowledge: Libraries have historically oscillated between being public and private institutions, reflecting broader societal shifts in who controls access to knowledge. Jessica Talisman highlights how figures like Andrew Carnegie helped establish the modern public library system, reinforcing libraries as democratic spaces where information is accessible to all. However, she also notes that as knowledge becomes digitized, new battles emerge over who owns and controls digital information​​.The Internet Archive Faces Systematic Attacks on Knowledge: Stewart Alsop shares his firsthand experience visiting the Internet Archive just after it had suffered a major cyberattack. This incident is part of a larger trend in which libraries and knowledge repositories worldwide, including those in Canada, have been targeted. The conversation raises concerns that these attacks are not random but part of a broader, well-funded effort to undermine access to information​​.AI and Knowledge Graphs Are Deeply Intertwined: AI systems, particularly large language models (LLMs), rely on structured data sources such as knowledge graphs, ontologies, and linked data. Talisman explains how institutions like the NIH and PubMed provide openly available, structured knowledge that AI systems train on. Yet, she points out a critical gap—AI often lacks alignment with real-world, authoritative sources, which leads to inaccuracies in machine-generated knowledge​​.Libraries Are Moving From Cataloging to Entity Management: Traditional library systems were built around cataloging books and documents, but modern libraries are transitioning toward entity management, which organizes knowledge in a way that allows for more dynamic connections. Linked data and knowledge graphs enable this shift, making it easier to navigate vast repositories of information while maintaining provenance and authority​​.The War on Truth and Information Is Accelerating: The episode touches on the increasing threats to truth and reliable information, from book bans to algorithmic suppression of knowledge. Talisman underscores the crucial role librarians play in preserving access to primary sources and maintaining records of historical truth. As AI becomes more prominent in knowledge dissemination, the need for robust, verifiable sources becomes even more urgent​​.Linked Data is the Foundation of Digital Knowledge: The conversation explores how linked data protocols, such as those championed by Tim Berners-Lee, allow machines and AI to interpret and connect information across the web. Talisman explains that institutions like NIH publish their taxonomies in RDF format, making them accessible as structured, authoritative sources. However, many organizations fail to leverage this interconnected data, leading to inefficiencies in knowledge management​​.Preserving Digital Memory is a Civilization-Defining Challenge: In the digital age, the loss of information is more severe than ever. Alsop compares the current state of digital impermanence to the Dark Ages, where crucial knowledge risks disappearing due to corporate decisions, cyberattacks, and lack of preservation infrastructure. Talisman agrees, emphasizing that digital archives like the Internet Archive, WorldCat, and Wikimedia are foundational to maintaining a collective human memory​​.

This model offers a powerful framework for structuring learning progression in physical education, taking students from basic knowledge to creative application through five distinct stages. • SOLO stands for Structure of Observed Learning Outcomes• The five stages progress from pre-structural (knowing nothing) to extended abstract (creating something new)• Using Legos as an example: level 1 is not knowing what Legos are, level 5 is creating original designs without instructions• Similar progression with musical instruments: from holding a guitar to jamming and creating new songs• Modified approach using numbered magnets makes the system more kid-friendly• Implemented successfully with dance, hockey, soccer, football, and pickleball units• Students track their own progress and clearly understand what skills they need to advance• Higher-level students can help teach others and create new games or activitiesTake care,DaveLEGO videoSOLO hand signal videoSample SOLO PDFJoin my Substack newsletter, where I share PE tips, games and strategies.Beg, Borrow, Build and Steal ebook with links, Free game PDFs and my personal grant writing files: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Beg-Borrow-Build-and-Steal-Equipment-13063549Become a guest on the show: podcast signup formFREE E-Book on setting up your PE programMy website: https://www.supersizedphysed.comWebsite for the book: https://www.teacherchefhockeyplayerbook.com/

Alex Silverberg, President and SEO Strategist at APSEO, delves into taxonomy for large websites. Websites rely on a strong foundation to function effectively. Site architecture, or taxonomy, plays a vital role in user experience and even how search engines crawl and understand your site. Without proper taxonomy, users are unable to find what they're looking for, and search engines can't understand the relationship between your pages.

What if AI could transform the way we learn, making education more engaging and impactful? Join us as we sit down with Ramit Varma, CEO and co-founder of Breakout Learning, to explore this provocative idea. Discover how his innovative approach is reshaping classroom discussions by addressing common issues like uneven participation and free-riding, all while fostering critical thinking and real-world skills. Through the lens of Breakout Learning, we examine the potential of AI to not only assess students' understanding using Bloom's Taxonomy but also prepare them to articulate and defend their viewpoints.Education is undergoing a seismic shift, and we're here to uncover the trends shaping its future. From the declining student numbers in traditional institutions to the rise of alternative education paths post-pandemic, we discuss how these developments are influencing the learning environment. Delve into the Breakout Learning system, which enhances classroom discussions by equipping students with the confidence and preparation needed to contribute meaningfully. We also touch on the broader implications for K-12 education, envisioning smaller, personalized settings becoming the norm.As we rethink the value of higher education in the face of rising tuition costs, we consider the influence of student reviews and the call for more engaging educational experiences. With insights from Ramit's past in college admissions and test preparation, we question the worth of a college degree today. Looking ahead, we imagine a future where AI supports memory and learning, providing real-time assistance.

Christmas songs are seen as a pivotal part of the holiday season. They bring feelings of nostalgia, festivity, family and memories. Classics like Jingle Bell Rock and Santa Claus is Coming to Town just make the season feel complete. However, not all Christmas songs are made the same, in fact some songs and artists should probably avoid the holiday season altogether. So what makes a bad Christmas song? Holiday cringe, ill fitting genres, celebrity cash ins and melancholy overload. This week Dave will introduce an entire playlist of what have been deemed as less than classic Christmas songs, and to be honest, are just bad overall. Rob and Dave will discuss, laugh and try to figure out why these were even recorded and who knows, amongst all of the crap, you may find a new holiday classic (which would be strange). So grab some chestnuts and hot cocoa and we'll go a wassailing, hopefully not being arrested in the process for being a public nuisance and/or disturbing the peace.

This article examines how various outdoor environmental characteristics influence children's outdoor play. The authors developed a taxonomy (a HUGE chart!) that allows practitioners to evaluate the "affordances" of outdoor play spaces...in other words: what do different types of features of the outdoor environment invite children to DO in that environment? The Environmental Taxonomy of Outdoor Play Space Features categorizes physical environments, their functional qualities, and the play activities they support.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the most abundant lifeform on Earth: the viruses that 'eat' bacteria. Early in the 20th century, scientists noticed that something in their Petri dishes was making bacteria disappear and they called these bacteriophages, things that eat bacteria. From studying these phages, it soon became clear that they offered countless real or potential benefits for understanding our world, from the tracking of diseases to helping unlock the secrets of DNA to treatments for long term bacterial infections. With further research, they could be an answer to the growing problem of antibiotic resistance.With Martha Clokie Director for the Centre for Phage Research and Professor of Microbiology at the University of LeicesterJames Ebdon Professor of Environmental Microbiology at the University of BrightonAnd Claas Kirchhelle Historian and Chargé de Recherche at the French National Institute of Health and Medical Research's CERMES3 Unit in Paris.Producer: Simon TillotsonIn Our Time is a BBC Studios Audio ProductionReading list: James Ebdon, ‘Tackling sources of contamination in water: The age of phage' (Microbiologist, Society for Applied Microbiology, Vol 20.1, 2022) Thomas Häusler, Viruses vs. Superbugs: A Solution to the Antibiotics Crisis?
