Orrin Porter Rockwell, bodyguard to Joseph Smith and feared legend of the American West. He is ‘Mormon' (LDS) folk hero; is a historical legend, and was said to be invincible—as long as he never cut his hair. But in 1855, he picked up a pair of scissors. Why? This episode reveals a stunning moment of tenderness from a man known more for bullets than kindness. A story of faith, myth, and one sacred gesture you won't forget.Chapters:00:00 – Introduction00:56 – A Man Called Rockwell02:40 – The Prophecy & the Hair04:03 – The Widow & the Wig05:38 – Fallout & Faith06:49 – Legend & Legacy07:58 – An OunceReferences:LDS Church History: Rockwell Prophecy & LoyaltyDetails Joseph Smith's prophecy and Rockwell's unwavering loyalty.Source: The Church Historian's blog.URL: https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/blog/ask-us-top-five-reference-questions-about-orrin-porter-rockwell?lang=engFact vs. Folklore – Rockwell's Reputation & Haircut for AgnesExplores verified and legendary accounts, including the wig story and behavior after cutting his hair.Source: LDS Living article featuring input from Church History Library.URL: https://www.ldsliving.com/the-most-famous-porter-rockwell-stories-fact-or-fiction-church-history-library-explains/s/94474General Biography of Porter Rockwell (Wikipedia)Overview of his early life, Danite association, lawman role, and mythic status.URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porter_RockwellRockwell's Hair Donation to Agnes Coolbrith SmithReferences common questions about the life of Rockwell.

Was Albert Einstein's brilliance a solo act… or was someone quietly working beside him—only to be forgotten by history?In this episode of An Ounce, we uncover the story of Mileva Marić: Einstein's first wife, a brilliant physicist, and possibly the uncredited partner behind one of the greatest scientific breakthroughs of all time.From love letters filled with equations to the mystery of a missing diploma and a vanished child, this story raises one bold question:Who really wrote E=mc²?________________________________________
This lesson is a prime example of the difficulty with taking the commentary from the rabbis on the Torah as the truth. In this study the rabbis comment on these verses ... The child grew and was weaned, and Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned. Now Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking. Therefore she said to Abraham, "Drive out this maid and her son, for the son of this maid shall not be an heir with my son Isaac." The matter distressed Abraham greatly because of his son. (Gen 21:8-11) The rabbis conclude from these verses that Ishmael, he is now 14 years old, was doing evil to his baby brother. The rabbis say that Sarah and Abraham saw this and knew that Ishmael had turned into a evil young man. These conclusions are so far from the historical context and the ancient culture of that time. It is clear the rabbis, whose commentary we read from the Middle Ages, are making up their own ideas and Christians get the impression they have to be right since it is the rabbis. WRONG! We will go back to Abraham's time and we will consider the culture of that day. We will focus on the laws of those days like the Code of Lipit-Ishtar. This law code (see the picture below of the code from Wikimedia) was in force in ancient Babylon of the area of the Chaldees. This is where Abraham came from. This is the law he is familiar with. When we study this law and what it says about the first born of a concubine (like Hagar) and the first born of the real wife (Sarah), we see some amazing facts. The laws of Lipit-Ishtar show that Ishmael, even though he was not the son from Abraham and Sarah, nevertheless was the real first born. This means that Ishmael was the direct heir of Abraham as per the laws from the Chaldees where Abraham came from. On top of that the English translation that says Ishmael was "mocking" his baby brother has another alternative meaning. The Hebrew can also mean to play or have fun with in a good way. It seems that Ishmael may have been playing nicely with his baby brother, Isaac, and Sarah saw that Ishmael was cementing his place in the family. She just couldn't have this. Isaac was her son. She was the wife and not Hagar, the pagan Egyptian. Hagar and Ishmael had to go. Sarah could not have Ishmael be the heir - Isaac was the heir as the Lord promised. But how? This is where the laws come in. John Currid in his Torah commentary "A Study Commentary: Genesis Vol.1" helps us with understanding the law and how it probably was applied to this situation. See the picture below from his commentary. When one studies this it gives a whole new idea behind these events. Abraham, the one man chosen by God to be the one whom all nations would be blessed, probably set Hagar and Ishmael free so that Isaac would have the legal right of the first born as per the law so Isaac would be the heir. This makes so much more sense and provides a more realistic understanding in light of the culture in the 19th and 20th centuries B.C. But there is something else. For Christians one verse that is probably a favorite verse is ... "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life." (Joh 3:16) Jesus said this when there was NO New Testament. Jesus was only teaching the Bible, His Bible, the Hebrew Scriptures or what Christians call the Old Testament. John 3:16 is nothing new, it was not some new teaching but what is in the Hebrew Bible. Consider some verses. The LORD protects the strangers; He supports the fatherless and the widow, But He thwarts the way of the wicked. (Psa 146:9) The Hebrew of the highlighted phrase is that יהוה Yahvay (when you see the word LORD all in caps it is translating יהוה Yahvay) the LORD is the SHAMAR of the GOYEEM. יהוה שׁמר את גרים GOYEEM ET SHAMAR YAHVAY This means He is the Keeper of even Gentiles - with no qualifications. The LORD is the Keeper of all people, the Hebrews and all non-Hebrews, the GOYEEM, the Gentiles, whether pagan or not. Keeper is the Hebrew word SHAMAR שׁמר which means the LORD acting as a guard, a protector, like a good a father or a good a shepherd. Then we read these verses ... "You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the sons of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself; I am the LORD." (Lev 19:18) "The stranger who resides with you shall be to you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt; I am the LORD your God." (Lev 19:34) So we are to love our neighbor as ourselves. And, the next verse we are to love the stranger (Hebrew word is GOYEEM or any Gentile, pagan or not) as ourselves. But combining the statements this means all non-Hebrews, pagan or not, are our brothers since we are to love the GOYEEM as ourselves; we are love them just as we love our brothers!! This is John 3:16. God loves Hagar. God loved Ishmael. He was their SHAMAR שׁמר - their keeper, their guard. On top of that God loved all those HE sent to their death in the Great Flood. He was not angry with the human race; HE was sad. You can read it for yourself. Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. The LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. (Gen 6:5-6) When Jesus taught us John 3:16 HE was only teach Torah! HE was only telling us from the Hebrew Scriptures, the Old Testament, what God is really like. Rev. Ferret - who is this guy? Ferret teaching in an ancient theater in Turkey What's his background?

Two U.S. officers were brutally murdered with axes in the Korean DMZ. The U.S. response? Not missiles—but chainsaws, commandos, and fighter jets. This is the true story of Operation Paul Bunyan—how the might of the U.S. military was unleashed to cut down a single tree… and avoid World War III.In this episode of An Ounce, we explore how a seemingly small act of violence nearly sparked global conflict, the cultural concept of “saving face,” and one of the most bizarre military operations in Cold War history.
Wikipedia macht Wissen für alle Menschen zugänglich - kostenfrei und ohne Algorithmus. Doch die freie Enzyklopädie ist in Gefahr: Seit Monaten attackieren US-Konservative rund um Donald Trump die Plattform. Zu „links“ und zu „woke“ sei sie, schreibt etwa Tech-Milliardär Elon Musk auf X. Ein Trump-naher Staatsanwalt stellte zuletzt sogar die Gemeinnützigkeit der Stiftung Wikimedia infrage, die hinter der Plattform steht. Kommt er damit durch, könnte das zu ernsthaften finanziellen Schwierigkeiten führen. Gleichzeitig versuchen Rechtsextreme, Informationen und Diskurse auf Wikipedia zu manipulieren. Klar ist: Die Zeiten für Wikipedia und das freie Wissen in den USA dürften schwerer werden. Aber warum ist die freie Enzyklopädie den Rechten in den USA ein solcher Dorn im Auge? Ist sie überhaupt noch zu retten? Und was bedeutet all das für Wikipedia in Deutschland? Darüber sprechen wir mit Franziska Heine, Vorständin von Wikimedia Deutschland, Christoph Schattleitner, Host des Podcasts „Sockenpuppenzoo“, Tomas Rudl, Journalist bei netzpolitik.org, und Henrik Schönemann vom Projekt Safeguarding Research & Culture. Podcast-Tipp: Sockenpuppenzoo - Angriff auf Wikipedia Wikipedia ist die vielleicht wichtigste Webseite unserer Demokratie. Doch das System ist fragil. Rechtsextreme haben die Offenheit Wikipedias genutzt, um Informationen und Diskurse unerkannt zu manipulieren. Mutmaßlich schrieben sie mithilfe von hunderten von Fake Account Artikel zur deutschen Geschichte um, erfanden Fakten, relativierten den Holocaust - bis sich ihnen eine Handvoll Wikipedianer*innen mutig entgegenstellte. Ob die Täter wirklich gestoppt wurden, ist bis heute nicht klar. Die Investigativjournalisten Christoph Schattleitner und Daniel Laufer nehmen im Podcast Sockenpuppenzoo die Spur auf und fragen: Was sind das für Menschen, die hinter diesem Angriff stecken? Und können wir Wikipedia heute wirklich noch vertrauen? https://www.ardaudiothek.de/sendung/sockenpuppenzoo-angriff-auf-wikipedia/13996869/

Let's stop the cycle of contempt and learn to disagree better! In this video, we discuss how to fix our broken conversations and bridge the divide in our nation.Are we really more divided than ever—or just worse at disagreeing?In this episode of An Ounce, we explore how contempt has crept into every corner of modern life—from relationships and work meetings to dinner tables and online comment sections—and why it's killing our ability to communicate. You'll hear insights from Stoic philosophers, historical figures like Lincoln and Mandela, and even modern research on what actually ends relationships (hint: it's not yelling).________________________________________⏱️ Chapters00:00 – Intro01:16 – Conversation That Broke Down02:41 – The Real Enemy03:49 – In the Living Room – Relationships04:40 – The Family Table – Political Polarization at Home05:31 – At Work06:27 – Online: Public Contempt Preformed for Audience07:33 – The Temptation of Contempt08:33 – Why Civility Isn't Enough09:16 – The Better Way10:43 – How Grace Stops Contempt11:25 – Challenge12:32 – An Ounce________________________________________

To być może najbardziej ukochana zielona sowa świata. Niejedna osoba na widok szantażu emocjonalnego widocznego w jej oczach jednak odrabiała lekcję języka, mimo zmęczenia. Teraz wokół Duolingo (i jego maskotki, sowy Duo) wybuchł kryzys. Ta najpopularniejsza aplikacja do nauki języków zapowiedziała, że zrezygnuje ze współpracowników i zastąpi ich sztuczną inteligencją. Użytkownicy grożą strajkiem lub wręcz porzuceniem aplikacji i rozwodem z Duo. Dlatego w tym odcinku sprawdzimy, jak AI może być wykorzystywana w nauce języków, czy nauczyciele języków mogą się bać, dlaczego Duolingo wykorzystuje dziwaczne zdania i w końcu - czy Duolingo naprawdę może nauczyć języka obcego.

Tredje rikets sista dagar präglades av kaos, förstörelse och död. I sitt politiska testamente utsåg Adolf Hitler storamiralen Karl Dönitz till Tysklands nye statschef. Dönitz var ingen ideolog eller sadist som Himmler eller Goebbels, men en lojal och effektiv tjänsteman i ett system byggt på förtryck och massmord. Regeringen han ledde – den så kallade Flensburgregeringen – existerade i drygt tre veckor med huvudsakligt syfte att organisera kapitulationen och möjliggöra för civila och soldater att fly till väst.I praktiken saknade Dönitzregeringen verkligt inflytande. Tysklands militära kapacitet var krossad, infrastrukturen låg i ruiner och de allierade kontrollerade redan stora delar av landet. Ändå spelade regeringen en viss roll i samordningen av partiella kapitulationer, bland annat i Danmark, Norge och norra Tyskland.Detta är det sista avsnittet i en serie av sju om andra världskriget från podden Historia Nu. Programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med militärhistorikern Lars Ericson Wolke, aktuell med boken Tredje rikets sista dagar.Den 7–8 maj 1945 undertecknades Tysklands villkorslösa kapitulation, vilket formellt avslutade kriget i Europa. Trots detta dröjde det till den 23 maj innan Dönitzregeringen arresterades av brittiska trupper och upplöstes. Under mellantiden rådde fullständigt kaos: miljoner människor var på flykt, städer låg i ruiner och tusentals dog i svält, sjukdomar och våld. Tyskland delades upp i fyra ockupationszoner, och i Nürnberg inleddes rättegångarna mot ansvariga för nazismens brott.Karl Dönitz dömdes till tio års fängelse för krigsförbrytelser. I sina memoarer, liksom Albert Speer, försökte han tona ned sin roll och lägga skulden på Hitler. Först långt senare framträdde en tydligare bild av Wehrmachts och SS:s aktiva deltagande i folkmordet.Dönitz var en teknokratisk lojalist. Född 1891, utbildad inom den kejserliga marinen, gjorde han karriär som ubåtsofficer under första världskriget. Under andra världskriget ledde han ubåtskriget mot de allierade med hänsynslös effektivitet och lät använda koncentrationslägerfångar i rustningsindustrin. Han blev partimedlem först 1944, men var länge en trogen anhängare av Hitler.Striderna om Hitlers efterträdarskap hade pågått länge. Hess diskvalificerades efter sin flygning till Storbritannien 1941, Göring föll i onåd, och Himmler förrådde Hitler genom att försöka förhandla med väst. Valet föll slutligen på Dönitz, vars lojalitet aldrig ifrågasatts.Hans regering – baserad i Flensburg vid danska gränsen – försökte fördröja kapitulationen inför Röda armén, och istället prioritera reträtt och överlämnande till västmakterna. Detta ledde till partiella kapitulationer i bland annat Danmark (5 maj), Nordvästtyskland och Nederländerna, samt förhandlingar i Norge. Det var ett försök att mildra konsekvenserna av det oundvikliga nederlaget.Bild: Gripandet av tre medlemmar ur Flensburgregeringen: Alfred Jodl, Albert Speer och presidenten Karl Dönitz. På bilden ses storamiral Karl Dönitz i brittisk fångenskap efter sin arrestering. Dönitz utsågs till Hitlers efterträdare den 30 april 1945 och ledde därefter förhandlingarna om de tyska styrkornas kapitulation i väst.

Mary Boleyn was Anne Boleyn's elder sister, and while she didn't lose her head, she still had a hell of a life. As the eldest daughter of a rising family in the Tudor court, she was expected to keep her head down, marry well and advance her family, but much like her sister, she took her own path in life, and it led to scandal.

Andra världskriget startade tidigt på morgonen den 1 september 1939 när Nazityskland anföll Polen. Polens öde hade beseglats några dagar tidigare när Sovjetunionen och Nazityskland ingick en ohelig allians och i ett hemligt protokoll delade upp landet mellan sig.Storbritannien och Frankrike förklarade krig mot Tyskland den 3 september, men deras insatser var symboliska. Trots de polska styrkornas heroiska motstånd ledde Nazitysklands tekniska och numerära överlägsenhet till att den polska armén kollapsade inom tre veckor. Den 17 september 1939 gick Röda armén in i östra Polen.Detta är det första avsnittet i en serie av sju om andra världskriget, där programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med Martin Hårdstedt, professor i historia vid Umeå universitet, om anfallet på Polen och krigets början.Trots en numerärt stor armé lyckades Polen inte stå emot den tyska krigsmaskinen, som med sin blixtkrigstaktik revolutionerade modern krigföring. Tysklands kombination av snabba pansaranfall, flygvapenstöd och välkoordinerade operationer krossade det polska försvaret.Den polska armén saknade både modern utrustning och förmåga att möta den nya tidens mobila krigföring. Dessutom var landets försvarsstrategi, som byggde på att skydda gränserna, ineffektiv mot Tysklands framryckningar vilka snabbt splittrade och omringade de polska styrkorna. Polens utsatta läge förvärrades ytterligare när Sovjetunionen invaderade från öster den 17 september, vilket tvingade Polen att slåss på två fronter.Storbritannien och Frankrike, som hade försvarsfördrag med Polen, förklarade krig mot Tyskland den 3 september men kunde inte erbjuda något konkret militärt stöd. Polens isolering och den övermäktiga fienden ledde till landets fall på bara fem veckor.Efter erövringen av Polen började Tyskland och Sovjetunionen genomföra systematiska åtgärder för att eliminera den polska nationen. Västra Polen annekterades direkt av Nazityskland, medan centrala delar organiserades som Generalguvernementet. Nazisterna inledde omedelbart en brutal politik av germanisering, där polsk kultur systematiskt undertrycktes. Miljontals polacker fördrevs från sina hem för att skapa plats åt tyska bosättare, medan hundratusentals polacker tvångsrekryterades som slavarbetare i Tyskland.Den nazistiska Generalplan Ost föreslog en etnisk rensning och germanisering av Polen. Miljontals polska judar fördes till getton, och utrotningsläger som Auschwitz och Treblinka etablerades. Dessa blev centrala för Förintelsen, där cirka tre miljoner polska judar och ytterligare tre miljoner polska medborgare dödades. Samtidigt deporterade Sovjetunionen hundratusentals polacker till Sibirien, och i Katynmassakern 1940 avrättade den sovjetiska säkerhetstjänsten NKVD över 20 000 polska officerare och intellektuella.Bild: Möte mellan tyska och sovjetiska soldater i Polen, 20 september 1939.

Negli ultimi anni l'intelligenza artificiale ha fatto passi da gigante, entrando in settori che fino a poco tempo fa sembravano lontani anni luce: dalla sanità alla logistica, dai servizi alla clientela alla creatività. Non si tratta più solo di automazione o di algoritmi invisibili, ma di tecnologie sempre più accessibili, che stanno cambiando il modo in cui lavoriamo, comunichiamo, prendiamo decisioni. Approfittando dell'occasione dell'AI WEEK 2025, l'evento che a maggio metterà al centro proprio questi temi è il momento giusto per fermarsi e provare a fare il punto: dove siamo arrivati davvero con l'IA? E quali sfide ci aspettano nei prossimi mesi? Per parlarne abbiamo invitato Pasquale Viscanti, co-founder di Intelligenza Artificiale Spiegata Semplice e organizzatore dell'AI WEEK.Nella sezione delle notizie parliamo di Wikipedia che ha pubblicato dei dataset specifici ottimizzati per l'addestramento dei modelli di intelligenza artificiale e del primo test di guida autonoma in Italia su una strada trafficata, realizzato sulla Tangenziale di Napoli.--Indice--00:00 - Introduzione01:22 - Wikipedia pubblica dei dataset specifici per l'IA (TheVerge.com, Luca Martinelli)02:42 - Il primo test di guida autonoma su strada trafficata (DMove.it, Matteo Gallo)03:55 - AI WEEK: a che punto siamo con l'intelligenza artificiale?

Mineva 80 let od smrti ameriškega predsednika, ki je s svojimi socialnimi reformami iz hude krize rešil ameriški kapitalizem, ključno pripomogel k zmagi v drugi svetovni vojni in prej izolacionistične ZDA vzpostavil kot osrednjega akterja svetovne politike in ekonomijeV zgodovini je malo političnih osebnosti, še manj pa demokratično voljenih voditeljev, ki so tako zelo preoblikovali svet, kot ga je ameriški predsednik, od smrti katerega te dni mineva točno 80 let. Franklin Delano Roosevelt ni bil le človek, odločilen za to, da so Združene države, ki so bile v 30. letih preteklega stoletja še vedno močno izolacionistične, v drugi svetovni vojni najprej z oskrbo z orožjem, potem pa tudi neposredno, stopile na stran zaveznikov in pomagale premagati nacistično Nemčijo; ni bil le človek, ki je kljub otroški paralizi, ki ga je prizadela še preden je prvič zasedel predsedniški položaj, postal eden najmočnejših svetovnih voditeljev in edini ameriški predsednik v zgodovini, ki je bil kar štirikrat izvoljen na to funkcijo in jo zasedal vse do smrti; bil je tudi človek, ki je s svojim pogledom na vlogo države v gospodarstvu in družbi vzpostavil to, kar danes razumemo kot moderno ameriško državo in ZDA pretvoril ne samo v svetovno velesilo, ampak v politično tvorbo, ki je kljub svoji individualistični ideologiji vendarle dopuščala nekakšno javno vlogo pri varovanju narave, zamejevanju vpliva velekapitala in uveljavljanju delavskih pravic in zaščite najšibkejših - bil je torej človek, ki je pred slabimi stotimi leti zasnoval tisto malo socialne države, kolikor je ZDA danes premorejo in ki jo trenutna administracija pospešeno razgrajuje. Za nekatere tako rekoč socialist, za druge rešitelj kapitalizma v času hude gospodarske krize, ko je grozil njegov zlom - kdo je bil Franklin Delano Roosevelt in kakšno zgodovinsko vlogo je odigral, se bomo v tokratnih Glasovih svetov pogovarjali z dr. Kornelijo Ajlec z Oddelka za zgodovino ljubljanske Filozofske fakultete. Oddajo je pripravila Alja Zore. foto: Franklin Delano Roosevelt novembra 1944, Wikimedia, javna last Vabljeni tudi k poslušanju oddaje Ars humana o Ljudski zgodovini Združenih držav: »Zgodovina, ki ohranja živ spomin na ljudske upore, nudi drugačno razumevanje moči.«
Microsoft is rolling out a preview of its new feature called Recall, which captures screenshots of user activity on CoPilot Plus PCs. This feature, initially intended for launch alongside CoPilot Plus PCs, faced delays due to security concerns. Users must opt-in to save snapshots with Recall and can pause the feature at any time. This development raises important questions about data ownership and how organizations should approach the use of scraped data, especially as automated bots increasingly threaten the sustainability of open-source projects like Wikimedia.The podcast also discusses the impact of tariffs on IT budget planning, with IDC lowering its projected growth in global IT spending for 2025 from 10% to 5%. Many companies are experiencing uncertainty in their budgets, leading to spending cutbacks. CIOs are advised to prepare for various potential tariff scenarios, particularly as technology prices for devices are expected to be affected. The ongoing cuts in federal jobs are also impacting Managed Service Providers (MSPs), prompting them to diversify their client bases and adapt to changes in the federal market.In the cybersecurity realm, CyberFox has announced a strategic integration with Synchro to enhance security and operational efficiency for MSPs. This partnership aims to simplify security tools for providers, allowing them to increase security without sacrificing efficiency or budget. Additionally, Cohesity has expanded its partnership with Google Cloud to improve cyber resilience and data insights for organizations facing cyber threats, emphasizing that cybersecurity is becoming an essential infrastructure rather than an add-on.The episode concludes with insights from the 2025 AI Index, highlighting advancements in AI model efficiency and a notable increase in AI incidents. The report indicates a growing divide in AI optimism between the U.S. and China, with significant investment in AI continuing in the U.S. The discussion also touches on the importance of backward compatibility in Wi-Fi technology, illustrating how innovation and stability are crucial for modern IT services. The podcast encourages listeners to consider how to implement guardrails for customers while leveraging stability as a competitive differentiator.

Tavaly novemberben Panyi Szabolcs és Tárkányi Flóra cikket írt arról, hogy a magyar EU-elnökség egy csúcstalálkozójára érkező külföldi delegációknak – több más szállodával együtt – a Vörösmarty téren található Dorothea Hotelt is a figyelmébe ajánlották. Ami azért érdekes, mert ez Orbán Viktor miniszterelnök vejének, Tiborcz Istvánnak a luxusszállodája. És nem szenvedett hiányt kormányzati segítségben: 2018-ban például kiemelt beruházássá minősítette a kormány Tiborcz projektjét. A Válasz Online összesítése szerint pedig a miniszterelnök vejének cégcsoportja, a BDPST több mint 40 milliárd forint hitelt kapott a Mészáros Lőrinc többségi tulajdonában lévő MBH-tól a szálloda fejlesztésére. A Direkt36-hoz most újabb információk jutottak el az EU-csúcson a Dorotheában megszállókról, akik között ráadásul megtaláljuk Orbán Viktor egyik külföldi kritikusát is. A Direkt36 podcastjában Tárkányi Flóra beszél a Panyi Szabolccsal közösen írt cikkükről. Panyi Szabolcs és Tárkányi Flóra cikkei: https://www.direkt36.hu/tiborcz-szallodajat-is-ajanlotta-a-budapesti-eu-csucs-resztvevoinek-a-magyar-kormany/ https://www.direkt36.hu/bar-mashova-foglaltak-vegul-tiborcz-szallodajaba-iranyitottak-a-budapesti-eu-csucsra-erkezo-finn-delegaciot/ Ha fontosnak tartod a munkánkat, és érdekel, hogyan tárjuk fel a hatalom titkait, akkor csatlakozz a Direkt36 támogatói köréhez! www.direkt36.hu/tamogass-minket/ Adód egy százalékának felajánlásával is támogathatsz minket: https://www.direkt36.hu/1szazalek/ Borítókép: A Dorothea Hotel hallja Forrás: Random Photos 1989 / Wikimedia

Æthelflæd, Lady of the Mercians, is often not given her due credit for how influential she was in the crushing of the Viking Age. Æthelflæd was raised by Alfred the Great, who would have been a fine model for her future leadership.

Olga of Kyiv started out life as an obscure Rus noblewoman until she was thrust onto the centre stage by marrying the most powerful man in Eastern Europe. Soon enough, she was faced with a crisis when that man died, and she was left regent of a whole principality with a baby son and no protection. However, she rose to the occasion kicking asses and taking names and making sure no one would forget the name, Olga. She was so good at her job that she even became a saint in the catholic church.

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.
Empress Josephine was one of the most fascinating women of the French Revolutionary period. Little Jo started out as the oldest daughter of a French noble family in the Caribbean with plenty of clout but not enough cash, so she was soon married off to her first husband, who provided her with the cash she needed but not the love. The French Revolution turned her life upside down, and in the fight for financial security, she met a rising star named Napoloan, who would carry her from being the wife of a soldier to being the empress of his short-lived empire.
