Arctostaphylos glauca (bigberry manzanita): 12/18/21 WUaS Minutes for open Monthly Business Meeting, both wings - A) Np World Univ & Sch, and B) Fp WUaS Corp

 

Greetings!, dear World Universitians, and friends, 

Season Greetings' ❤️, friends!

The next open WUaS Monthly Business Meeting meets on Saturday, January 15, 2022. Stay tuned for the URL, since WUaS will no longer be able to stream open Monthly Business Meeting in Google Meet video conferencing. 

Here are the 12/18/21 WUaS open Monthly Business Meeting Minutes for 1) World Univ & Sch's Monthly Business Meeting, & 2) the WUaS Corp. WUaS continues to plan for free-to-students' best STEAM CC-4 OpenCourseWare-centric online PhDs and Bachelor degrees for 1/1/22, in English, - and then in all ~200 countries and in their major languages, as well as for wiki schools for open teaching and learning in all 7,139 living languages. 



Agenda and News for 12/18/21 - 


The next OPEN WUaS Monthly Business Meeting is on Saturday, January 15, 2022, at 9 am PT, and is hour-long. Please email meeting@worlduniversityandschool.org if you'd like to join and participate with your ideas, questions, suggestions or thoughts).

Sincerely, Scott

The WUaS Corporation received a letter on paper from the CA state representative of District 7 in Contra Costa county confirming the help his office shared regarding receiving and paying the first tax bill from the CA FTB (re the 3 duplicate bills in one way or another). Thanks to this state senator and his office for bringing the state of California further into communication with ocw.mit.edu wiki World Univ & Sch. (See this letter from the state representative of district 7 at the 4 minute mark here -

1
Mwende Evande from Cameroon, Africa, has sent in the courses from OCW.MIT.EDU he'd like to take, and will begin to study, in registering for a free-to-students' Bachelor's degree at World Univ & Sch, and he will proceed with a free 'CS First' with Google course - soon https://csfirst.withgoogle.com/s/en/home .

If you are interested in matriculating at World Univ & Sch, for free-to-students' Bachelor or PhD degrees, and might even like to begin with this CS First with Google course, for example, please email WUaS at Meeting@WorldUniversityAndSchool.org.




2
World Univ & Sch seeks to develop further in WUaS Google Workspace for Education, and potentially add CC-4 ocw.mit.edu courses (in its 4 languages) to the templates (if possible) and with this free "Computer Science CS First with Google" course, which is also CC-4 - https://csfirst.withgoogle.com/s/en/home - even as a model . But WUaS News and Q&A on Mondays will end soon since Google Meet video conferencing is returning to a premium model, and WUaS is in the free WUaS Google Workspace for Education space.




3
With a specific focus on developing more intelligence (e.g. problem solving, modeling) in all 7,139 languages, with dialogue, machine learning and artificial intelligence, for example, 
World Univ & Sch seeks to facilitate, in multiple ways, and focus the development of - 
7.9 billion personal Avatar Bots as teachers and learners for each of us (e.g. a Stanford Professor Richard Rorty interactively and conversationally, for example)
&
7.9 billion personal robots - as WUaS personal tutors too -  for socratic dialogue, and conference method - and many teaching and learning purposes.




4
World Univ & Sch seeks to facilitate, in multiple ways, and focus the development of
Machine Learning project managers - e.g. brainstorming-wise, to possibly hire 10 million people at WUaS for this, about 4 times as many as W-m, mostly interns in 7,139 known living languages, but probably more likely that WUaS aims to hire as many as 2.3 million people (about the size of Walmart), achieving this over a number of decades.




5
WUaS is seeking a new Chairperson of the Board of Directors
Please let meeting@worlduniversityandschool.org know if you have suggestions for, or thoughts about, this. With time, WUaS, and with more Universitians, will develop a more effective process for such WUaS developments -
https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Foundation

Larry Viehland, who has been in this role on both WUaS wings has recently become acting Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Thank you, Larry, for serving in the role of Chairman of the Board in recent years!




6
WUaS is seeking also a (new) management team
A Chief Operating Officer (COO)
A Chief Technology Officer (CTO)
A Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)
(Currently, Larry Viehland is Chief Financial Officer - CFO, and Scott MacLeod is Chief Executive Officer - CEO)


6i
... as well as a new Chief Academic Officer - CAO - (and Larry Viehland, who has been in this role too  has recently become acting Chief Financial Officer (CFO) for both wings. Thank you, Larry, for serving in the role of Chief Academic Officer  in recent years!)


6ii
WUaS Monthly Business Meeting is calling for abolition (see, for example - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/12/euphorbia-heterophylla-wild-poinsetta.html) in these regards as well.




7
World Univ & Sch is in communication with the National Science Foundation presently, and regarding potentially a WUaS-NSF arrangement.

12
World Univ & Sch continues to seek to collaborate with Stanford Law and its CodeX for online WUaS law schools in all ~200 countries and in their main languages, and with legal technologies: 

WUaS Law Schools online, Brazil World Univ & Sch Law School in Portuguese, WUaS Wikidata in 300 languages, and Ontologist Coders and Programmers, Stanford Law CodeX ([codex_group_meetings] TODAY! CodeX Mtg (12/16/21 @1p PT): NEMO UFO-L (via Zoom)) -


Thanks, Roland, Giancarlo and Cristine,

Thanks especially for this paper about Wikidata, Giancarlo, which makes me wonder how to benefit from Wikidata's 300 languages, including especially Portuguese, if Wikidata is otherwise difficult to work with -
http://www.inf.ufes.br/~gguizzardi/Type_or_Individual_Evidence_of_Large_Scale_Conceptual_Disarray_in_Wikidata.pdf

Here are the questions I asked -
Giancarlo Guizzardi, All, Thanks for your excellent talks, - and can you please say a bit about the ontologies you work with - and in Portuguese by implication specifically, and for law, - and if possible, and generally, in comparison with Wikidata's ontology (which is Wikipedia's back end structured knowledge database in Wikipedia's 300 languages), and potentially for legal ontology; I realize you may not know Wikidata - if so please skip these questions, and perhaps we can follow up in email. Thanks so much! Scott (sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org)

... and potentially regarding your
'a legal core ontology grounded in the Unified Foundational Ontology (UFO) and based on Hohfeld’s seminal theory of fundamental legal concepts and Alexy’s relational theory of constitutional rights:'

World Univ & Sch is planning to be in all ~200 countries and in their main languages - so Portuguese language WUaS at Brazil WUaS is an example … probably with Google Workspace for Education and Wikidata focuses … Are you active at all in either? Are you active in Wikidata esp (Wikipedia’s backend structured knowledge database - as ontology explicitly - in Wikipedia’s 300 languages)

https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Brazil_Law_School_at_WUaS (with 200 country's universities from - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States)

https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Brazil (with 7,139 wiki schools from https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages)

https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Portuguese_language (planned in Portuguese, which CC-4 MIT OCW was in, but this is archived )

Let's stay in communication about this as your legal work in Portuguese continues!

Thanks, Scott







WUaS Corporation - WUaS Press



A
WUaS is seeking to develop our web Educational Services' Stores platforms, both actually and virtually, physically and digitally - potentially in collaboration with Google - as we seek to develop our relationship further with Lego Robotics' and Lego Education: 

WUaS, as an authorized Lego Robotics' reseller in the USA, contacted Lego's Leanna Prater and Stanford Research Fellow Soren Jorgensen (former? Consul General of Denmark to Silicon Valley too), about WUaS become a distributor to physical stores of the 3 Lego Robotics' kits WUaS carries, a) Mindstorms, b) Spike Prime, and c) WeDo 2.0 (http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html), but has still not heard back yet from either of them. This would include becoming a Lego Robotics' kits' distributor to Independent Booksellers, such as Orinda Books in Contra Costa county, CA, and potentially with a relationship with county departments of education, as well as to chain bookstores, such as Barnes and Noble.

Further, in what ways could the WUaS Corp and Academic Press at WUaS as Lego Robotics' kits' distributors facilitate WUaS outreach in such on-the-ground bookstores, with for example even robot bookshelves with Lego Robotics' kits on one side, and WUaS Academic Press books on the other side (thinking too Penguin Books' in-store twirling carousels for example).

WUaS's planned on-the-ground WUaS Educational Services' bookstores/cafes, computer stores, robotics' stores in the USA, - and actual-virtual bookstores in all ~200 countries, not just online in the USA (as the WUaS-Lego arrangement is now), - would also seek to carry these Lego Robotics' kits for our WUaS students, learners, and related researchers, and in many counties in all ~200 countries in the world, and in their main languages.




B
WUaS Press seeks to develop 
7.9 billion personal robots with artificial intelligence, manufactured and sold by WUaS, in a myriad of ways, in a number of years:

And perhaps beginning with and regarding WUaS both being an authorized carrier of 3 Lego Robotics' kits in the USA online (so far), and regarding the book by Nobel Laureate Kazuo Ishiguro "Klara and the Sun" about Artificial Friends (AFs), Personal Robots, and Robot People, in what ways could WUaS begin to plan to facilitate 20 models of robots a year after a number of years, and to all 7.9 billion people on the planet earth, as Personal Robot teachers and learners, and even also personal robot medical doctors +? (A recent Google Search yielded that about 6.4 billion people on the planet have smartphones, and there are more than a billion personal cars too).

Could these be solar powered, and with new material sciences' "human skin," which is like leather, and with many new properties? 




C
WUaS will focus on all 7.9 billion people each a Wikidata Pin# for UBI distribution of potentially a main cryptocurrency (like https://minepi.com/sgkmac) here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University - in a brand new coding project, and regarding a possible single Cryptocurrency to end poverty. Stanford Mine Pi (eg https://minepi.com/sgkmac) for this, - where WUaS Corporation would explore how it might work if WUaS could list this on the Silicon Valley Long-Term Stock Market, and in planning to code again for 7.9 billion people. And could then Nation States and Mutual Funds and Investors then invest in Stanford Mine Pi, and from all ~200 countries too?

You can get your free money here daily, by mining it for ~ 5 seconds with algorithms as tools - I am sending you 1π! Pi is a new digital currency developed by Stanford PhDs, with over 25 million members worldwide. To claim your Pi, follow this link https://minepi.com/sgkmac and use my username (sgkmac) as your invitation code.

Returned to north of Berkeley on Arlington Blvd just a few minutes ago on flights with SW.


WALKED uphill 25 minutes from El Cerrito del Norte BART TRAIN STATION to 'safe house' just now. Good to be back ... Big thanks to my mother for making it happen to fly back west today after the atrocious cancellation of flight by spirit airlines this morning after I had checked in online last night.

 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,
Scott

10:05 AM (12 hours ago)
to HenryJanieEdLarryJoanClaudiaPinAnnS, bcc: Tym
Ma, Ed, Joan, Larry, Pin, Sandy, Kim, Ann, All, Good morning,  

After a number of injuries to my father in 2001 (in LAX on the way to visit me matriculating at UC Santa Barbara Anthro) and 2004 on December 30th - on Semester at Sea University on a Ship in Belize (slipping on a root? or getting hit on the head? off the ship), I made it safely back to the SF Bay Area and slept pretty well too. The airline that had canceled my flight yesterday morning - spirit airlines - after I had checked in the evening before (but with confirmation, yet without getting a barcode), had re-booked me on a spirit airline flight on December 30th starting at 7:40 am in PIT, but this time through LAX, then to OAK, Oakland. Are they involved in illegal networks of violence (and possibly related to the illegal sex industry even somehow, and over decades?), tragically, wrongly, immorally ethically, harmfully? Glad to be back safely, and into this safe house. 

Regarding a good trip to DC and seeing family and Tym Lenderking in particular, how ...

Ma!

44F in El Cerrito earlier, 38F near Canyon 94516 where I just picked up my and Work World University and School / WUaS Corporation mail ... Beautiful misty day along Skyline and coming down into the Canyon valley on Pinehurst road.

Lots of Latinos probably still in El Cerrito, although Navin and Sarla (and son Manish too) Doshi are were Tanzanians, are Gujrati speakers and ethnically Indians and African ... Ethnicities of Canyon? ... Californians? :)

Thanks so much for the pears from Oregon Ma :) - yum!

You sounded good, Ma - and appreciated your talking. After our week together this seems new to me. I think my sharing in the Merry Xmas and happy New Year thread was not complaining but perhaps sharing significant history about Dad to you and a group of friends re what may have happened and informed too some of my life since (including writing 5 books and development of World Univ & Sch) ... History that may be freeing up ... But also appreciating your realism regarding the Spirit refund and will check soon. 

Now to find and connect with a life partner and friend ... Upon returning ...

Just played my Scottish Small Pipes and Beloved Scotland ... Glad to be in communication with you, Joan Kidder and Tym Lenderking and Sid Pin Mazumdar and Harvard Alumnus and all.

Love, Scott
