Hi M,

How's your day going? 

I learned something new just now, that Bonobos chimpanzees do hunting parties, where I thought the evidence until showed they were peaceful. Fascinating, and posted much about this here in 5 Tweets just now - https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/984931873603313664 - mostly of a literature review of the WWW, - and with specific Google search questions, which you'll see if you look at these 5 Tweets. Changes some my thinking about a number of things (Bonobos, non-harming primate species, hippy chimp, some of Frans de Waal's primatological interpretations) ... and re Quakers, too. I appreciate Quakers' thinking as a collective about peace with social justice, and there's even a wiki subject about this - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Peace_and_Social_Justice_Studies - at wiki World University and School. 

Am glad Bob Harrington MD is the chair of Stanford Medicine too, and that he knows Chris Granger MD and John Alexander MD, from when Bob was a cardiologist too at Duke. 

L,
Scott

Hello M,

Made a flood gate robot yesterday, where a motor opens a gate, in Lego yesterday (the "Prevent Flooding" project in Lego WeDo 2.0). Making these is fun. Much potential for college engineering from home with this even eventually and at WUaS. Also saw a home CRISPR gene editing kit for yeast (into machine learning) , and a moleculuar chemistry (Larry's field) Lego kit in new materials out of MIT. All three might eventually be suitable for a home undergraduate MIT-centric education.

Good WUaS monthly business meeting this morning with L.

apr 14, 2018 agenda for world univ & sch's open monthly business meeting


Glad to have just gotten an email from D ... the bass player in the Allman Bros' video I sent all of you too ( https://youtu.be/yB-7YnSgv1A - The Allman Brothers Band - HD (40th Anniversary - Full Concert) ) is a Sidwell Friends' school (Quaker high school in Washington DC) graduate :) ... nice to have received this email especially when feeling .

What are you up to and how are you?

L,
Scott

AI researchers are training their systems to be more capable by having them mimic dogs.
