Hi !


Hope all of you are doing well. Have we applied for this?


Also I got my Stanford Mine Pi account setup.

Hi Sri, and All, 

I just signed up with both (edX & Mine Pi) successfully, initially, and, on smartphone - minepi.com/sgkmac (using telephone number and passport name, and address) - and have earned .25 Pi currency, or similar, in Mine Pi ... will return tomorrow at 4pm (adding to calendar even) to hit the button again for another .25 Pi, as Mine Pi develops, and as I explore - and regarding World University and School especially.

I hope a single cryptocurrency will be a way to alleviate poverty worldwide ... for the poorest people among all 7.8 billion people. 

Thank you, Scott

Hi All ...


In these regards, 
I just shared the following with my high school best friend's mother (and Partha in these email thread is Siddartha's younger brother), and family: 

Mrs. Mazumdar, Pin, Marti, Pat, Ma, Tym, Mr. Mazumdar, All, 

Here's a new cryptocurrency, Stanford's "Mine Pi" digital currency, and you can begin mining it (with algorithms) today and everyday and earn "Pi" - later convertible into fiat / cash. Happy Birthday and Happy Thanksgiving. And the head of WUaS in Sri Lanka just emailed this morning saying it was under development (and I had tried to sign up for "Mine Pi" in September 2019 with an old smartphone, unsuccessfully) - and the sign up process went well yesterday. A statistical wonderland, Mrs. Mazumdar (who's a statistician) - how can we plan for all 7.8 billion people on the planet - in all ~200 countries - and perhaps on bank cards or similar for the folks in 300,000 people refugee camps in east Africa for example?  

I just signed up with Mine Pi successfully, initially, and, on smartphone - minepi.com/sgkmac (using telephone number and passport name, and address, etc. - and please use my user name as a reference code, or Rifai's) - and have earned .25 Pi currency, or similar, in Mine Pi ... will return today at 4pm PT, which is 24 hours after I signed up yesterday, (and I added to my calendar even) to hit the 'Mine Pi' button again for another .25 Pi (what Harvard Professor BF Skinner behaviorism experimental potential is there here? :)), as Mine Pi develops, and as I explore it - and regarding World University and School especially, and even regarding WUaS seeking to alleviate poverty among the poorest of the 7.8 billion people.

We can also learn in new ways about the power of networks here, re this information technology (and re a course I teach on the Network Society - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/InfoTechNetworkSocGlobalUniv.html - and hope to teach again in 2021 freely, and online!). But please remember this digital cryptocurrency isn't worth very much at all - yet. :)

I hope a single cryptocurrency will be a way to alleviate poverty worldwide ... and Happy Birthday, Marti and Pat! :)

Friendly regards, Scott


Co-op coin images (Co-op coinage - also called scrip - is one of the main ideas here, where a Co-operative legal entity creates their own money, but eventually WUaS seeks to make available a single cryptocurrency backed by central banks of most of ~200 countries, and in their official languages, and fiat or cash is authorized money, defined as "a formal authorization or proposition; a decree" - so for example, from central banks :  )

2 steps forward, 1 step back


Dear Larry,

Well I thought we'd be working on all 29 majors newly with unfolding edX partnering - thanks to your helpful recent update ... worlduniversityandschool.org and with the recent installation of the WUaS Database Wikibase by Houcemeddine (Abdelwaheb Turki) et moi ... but it seems like we're taking a step back to the 6 majors (thanks to your planning a few years ago re WUaS CC-4 MIT OCW courses) ...  in these recent major '2 steps forward, 1 step back' developments.  Abdelwaheb seems to be riding, metaphorically, a fine Arabian maverick low on the side, and also, metaphorically, seems to excel in the 'engine room' of WUaS Wikibase databases in so many ways. And there are about 27 out of 206 countries (per the Olympics) where Arabic is the official language ... so I'm glad he didn't recuse himself. Am also glad Lydia, Markus and Denny may be having a glance at our emerging multilingual database too, and that Larry Michalak (a Berkeley Anthropology faculty member, with whom I went on Semester at Sea with in 2005) has Tunisia as his field site, and has colleagues and friends at University of Sfax in Tunisia where Abdelwaheb is based. 

Would be great if Abdelwaheb could enter the WUaS Medical School in some years; however credential-wise I think he has only a high school Baccalaureate degree from a Tunisian Baccalaureate high school (and not I.B.), since I don't think he's finished his undergraduate studies at the University of Sfax ... but he seems to have got the innards of Wikibase down, and speaks 4 languages (also Italian and French) :) Perhaps he could get a Bachelor's degree first at WUaS as he creates the course catalog database ... (since we decided in WUaS monthly business meeting to accept transfer students with Tanya ) ... How's your Arabic in reading a Tunisian undergraduate transcript? 

Am not sure what other identity questions (re Anthropology / Sociology analyses) will emerge, but he's never yet been to the Ramallah Friends School (Quaker) in Ramallah Palestine (founded in 1869 or so), and fairly recently an I.B. school, taught in Arabic and English. His north African base in Tunisia would make him very relevant for the whole African continent too, but possibly not in the Swahili language. 

Two Edinburgh higher educational events on Monday at 10am Pacific Time - 1) Fettes College high school, also I.B., and possibly re WUaS outreach for our free college, and @) University of Edinburgh Medical School debate, and re our online Medical Schools, possibly specific to Scotland in the future ...  and I haven't' decided what to do with the WUaS News, Q&A on Monday at 10 am Pacific Time, when I first met recently at length last week with Houcemeddine ...

2 steps forward, 1 step back

Sincerely, 
Scott


Some recent remarkable Mine Pi developments, which you can get, as you may have seen, and will it become the currency too of World Univ & Sch from nation states (Sati Mazumdar is a statistician :)????

Mrs. Mazumdar, Pin, Marti, Pat, Ma, Tym, Mr. Mazumdar, All, 

Here's a new cryptocurrency, Stanford's "Mine Pi" digital currency, and you can begin mining it (with algorithms) today and everyday and earn "Pi" - later convertible into fiat / cash. Happy Birthday and Happy Thanksgiving. And the head of WUaS in Sri Lanka just emailed this morning saying it was under development (and I had tried to sign up for "Mine Pi" in September 2019 with an old smartphone, unsuccessfully) - and the sign up process went well yesterday. A statistical wonderland, Mrs. Mazumdar - how can we plan for all 7.8 billion people on the planet - in all ~200 countries - and perhaps on bank cards or similar for the folks in 300,000 people refugee camps in east Africa for example?  

I just signed up with Mine Pi successfully, initially, and, on smartphone - minepi.com/sgkmac (using telephone number and passport name, and address, etc. - and please use my user name as a reference code) - and have earned .25 Pi currency, or similar, in Mine Pi ... will return today at 4pm, which is 24 hours after I signed up yesterday, (and I added to my calendar even) to hit the 'Mine Pi' button again for another .25 Pi (what BF Skinner behaviorism experimental potential is there here? :)), as Mine Pi develops, and as I explore it - and regarding World University and School especially, and ever regarding WUaS seeking to alleviate poverty among the poorest of the 7.8 billion people.

I hope a single cryptocurrency will be a way to alleviate poverty worldwide ... and Happy Birthday, Marti and Pat! :)

Hi Pin, Marti, Pat, Mrs and Mr Mazumdar, Tym and Ma, 


I'm writing to wish you a very happy Thanksgiving and hope you are celebrating enjoyably on the eastern seaboard, if in group video. 


Also, Happy Belated Birthday, Marti and Pat (which I noticed in my calendar recently).

Here are some related happy birthday and happy Thanksgiving ideas - 


genetic engineering with Google until the year 2,999?


Holy Moly - why would Google let you snooze messages for 1000 years? if #AgingReversal #WUaSAgingReversal

https://youtu.be/bnCEIPQFNnk becomes successful & in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForGenetics #RealisticVirtualEarthForCRISPR -THINK #StreetView w #TimeSlider, read email in 800 years?

Gmail lets you snooze messages until December 31, 2999 (it’s a Tuesday)


https://twitter.com/npseaver/status/1330586221781905408?s=20



Re #AgingReversal #WUaSAgingReversal in Google ecosystem, Tensorflow AI is doing gene adding & editing with different species in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForGenetics #RealisticVirtualEarthForSpecies 1 #RealisticVirtualEarth, while STEM researchers are living for centuries too?

Might we be celebrating Thanksgiving, sometimes together, sometimes in group video, for the next 1000 years? :)

Hi Pat and Marti, Mr. and Mrs. Mazumdar and All, 


Thanks so much Mr. and Mrs. Mazumdar for your emails just now. 


Here's a related birthday idea to alleviate poverty and via UBI experiments, worldwide, to distribute a single cryptocurrency, and by planning to code for all 7.8 billion people on the planet - 


In seeking to create major online universities in all ~200 countries in https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States & WIKI schools in all 7117 living languages,

@WorldUnivAndSch

 seeks too to code for 7.8 Billion people #WikidataQitem # #SingleCryptocurrency via #UBIexperiments re #DataGovernanceAct ~


https://twitter.com/TheOpenBand/status/1332356424077242368?s=20


All 7.8 billion living people would get a Wikidata Q-item # for both editing / adding to their own genetics, and regarding a single mineable cryptocurrency (like Mine Pi), backed by most of ~ 200 countries' central banks (but not possibly by Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Switzerland, England, - if the Euro is a model adopted by 19 out of 28 nation states in the EU currently). And initially for these 5 reasons - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/12/wild-pomegranate-burchellia-bubalina.html - and Season's Greetings, too! :)


Warm regards, Scott

Hi Ma,


Glad Ed spent time with his family, 'blood,' over the weekend - who is his last surviving aunt, and older relative on his father's side, ... (And are he, Valerie and their kids a troop, as in troop-bonding, per John Money (http://scottmacleod.com/JohnMoneyConceptsOfDeterminism.html), - and were we as a family (the Brown genes on Thanksgiving) all a troop in Zoom video on Thursday, you, Cathy and Steve, Ann, and invisible Tim, Kate and Sandy and me ...  ?)

Inaugurated my new red cushion today on a pretty day ... 

And are we all navigating the 'foredoomance' (per John Money too) idea with the interest in aging reversal via genetic engineering? ... with all of this having many implications even for psychiatry and in all countries and languages, I'd suggest and theorize (with related emails in Happy Thanksgiving! (and happy birthday, Pat & Marti!) thread here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/11/fennec-fox.html - and I'll probably add this one: )

Great to be in touch with Fettes College in Edinburgh today, re 'blood' too in a sense, and these and email to Maitreyi in some of these regards from today are here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/11/pelican-loving-bliss-resaerch-aging.html - 

Now have enjoyed both new Ikea red and green seat cushions, but will bring them inside regularly, to keep them clean ... 

Has Jean found a buyer for their house, or could even Lillian move back in there again, after Jean moves out, for example? 

How was your day?  

Love, Scott

PS
just shared this with Elliott - 

Hi Elliott!

Good to hear from you. Yes, glad to be in a (possibly temporary) safe house just north of Berkeley, away from the mentally ill former owner and his unwell daughter, landlady toward end, in Canyon. (I called the Moraga police twice over the summer to make 3 official reports if illegal beak ins, entries, thefts (which could even lead officially to involving federal authorities). New landlord, landlady are Indian / Gujurati, from Tanzania, Africa, in their early 80s, and who had at the end of career a 7000 sq ft import export shop at corner of Ashby and San Pablo. Enjoying living / being just north of Berkeley, but World Univ & Sch's addresses are still in Canyon, ... If sick landlord moved into secure nursing home, or prison, or bought a house in Watsonville, for ex. And his daughter and new husband moved to a nice house near their college, where they teach, I could see moving back in there ... If Canyon as a whole was somehow getting 'cleaned up' ... Am on Arlington in El Cerrito for awhile longer.

How are you, and Katherine? Nice to talk with David ☺️ not too long ago...

Good to be in touch!

Fond regards, Scott
