Silverback gorillas: Compare STEM cultures of MIT w Stanford ethnographically since '60s, in addition to my Harbin research, in terms of their WONDERS & Find exs. like MIT's Scratch that have gone both ways -re rigor & ease?, Just finished reading Stanford President Emeritus John Hennessy's great book "Leading Matters: Lessons from my Journey" (Stanford Press 2018) How could a @WorldUnivAndSch @WUaSPress book in conversation - & focusing on the 1960s & '70s as formative culture - be inspired by this?, In developing a method to MIT<>Stanford comparative STEM ethos of innovation out of the '60s book: countercultural history, Video as source > #RealisticVirtualEarth as idea generator, Programs as source, engage spec. exs. like Scratch newly at S, -which might have gone either way, Method continued

Hi M,

It's smokey here today, for the second day in a row, for some reason ... may be returning to California summer fire season ...  a big smoke out somehow (as cannabis reference:) ... or perhaps the Forest Service/similar is burning off a lot of fire danger at the peak of the dry season (after ~10 months of no rain) before a wildfire gets out of control, - not great for breathing in ...

I wonder how climatologists could add this smoke into a realistic virtual earth for climate change and atmosphere (EAPS - Earth, Atmosphere, Planetary Science - https://eapsweb.mit.edu/ ... https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/earth-atmospheric-and-planetary-sciences/ ) ... and related unfolding analyses ... would be great to get MIT's EAPS in on developing and coding a realistic virtual earth ... (Think Google Street View / Earth / TensorFlow ... so with machine learning)

House cleaning moment now ... and then to check out my new sofa bed ... then to Stanford to hear some talks, network and to get out of the smoke ...

WUaS business meeting tomorrow - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/11/mokelumne-river-agenda-news-world-univ.html ... want to join it? :)

Continuing to seek a position at Stanford ...

What are you up to today, and this weekend? How was your week and how are you?

L, S

Hi Ma,

Smokey at Stanford too ... big couple of burns in the SF Bay Area, I'd guess ...

front room's floor is clean :) ... so I'll unpack my sofa bed this evening probably :) ... nice to have a clean front room ...

Am interested in advancing a house-cleaning robot (out of something like Toyota research, for ex.) for everything (like filing papers, etc. and cleaning high places ... like outside 2nd story windows) ... including equality questions especially ... (but concerned that robotics will put a lot of people out of work as well ... one of the main arguments for planning for an Universal Basic Income ... ) Ethics can get quite convoluted as information technologies develop  ... :)

Love, Scott

M,

The smoke is bad here today. I think I may head to the coast here tomorrow near Stanford to fresh air then to write my book - maybe even tonight to stay in a youth hostel. Have recently outlined 2 books - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/11/floral-symmetry-next-harbin-ethno-wiki.html - after this current one I'm currently publishing

"Freedom:

Rainbow Gathering To Harbin this Day ~

Poetry of Loving Bliss".
