An opportunity for the WUaS Educational Services' Bookstores and Robot Stores?


Dear Larry, and Kim, 

An opportunity for the WUaS Educational Services' Bookstores and Robot Stores?

Just walked over 4 blocks from Toyota Palo Alto to a cafe (Starbucks) ... And so many shops are closed ... An opportunity for WUaS with Google? ... The nearby REI and Bed Bath and beyonds
Big stores - closed and empty ... So is retail space open for a song potentially around the country and even in other countries due to the coronavirus pandemic? Could be :) 

No news about Longevity Genetics' engineering revolution drug therapies or aging reversal but maybe WUaS will have to contribute to this science, by creating faculty and research positions for scientists ... A scientist for the Physical digital genetics of each of 6 species, and with a Longevity Genetics' engineering revolution drug therapies emerging focus? :)

Sincerely, Scott 




Just wished Ed happy mother's day :) ...


- Hi Ed πŸ™‚ How are you doing today? Am exploring further abolition movement thinking ... And wondering what might emerge with protecting people innocents et Al and even regarding a possible directive from the district 7 California state senator's office in Orinda and regarding the WUaS Corporation and Work World University and School and potentially regarding moving back into Canyon again on May 29 ... Thanks for precipitating my moving back into Canyon for April 15th ... And happy Mother's day to you too! ❤️ Scott ... 

Will see what happens :)

Dear Larry and Kim, 

Looked up 'best Robotics' stores" the other day while in Palo Alto near the Toyota place (and thinking too in terms of the T-HR3 humanoid robot from Toyota as a possible teacher and learner, and regarding Ishiguro's book "Klara and the Sun' about Artificial Friends and personal robots), .... and since the WUaS Educational Services' store is an authorized carrier of 3 Lego Robotics' kits (online and in the USA I think, with no further developments either, and am waiting on Lego Education Stanford and Google in these regards), and found 

NETWORK 
EDITORS' PICK
The 3 Best In-Store Robots And Why They Work


And with a Lowe's robot, a Giant Eagle Robot, and Walmart robots ... where they aren't simply selling robots, but thinking through as companies how their robots will work in the stores ... where Walmart is the only one I think selling robots but as toy in their stores like ... but not Lego Robotics' kits for education, I think too ... 

Here's Sphero, a robot that Walmart carries as a toy, and which was on a MIT Twitter post recently -
and - 

And here's the 
Toyota T-HR3 humanoid robot - 

Wondering how our WUaS Educational Services' stores potentially in conjunction with Google NYC ... but with a Physical-Digital approach in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForRobotics' especially ... 
https://twitter.com/sgkmacleod/status/1521925574393880576 (... and am appreciating this humanoid robot in a street in Europe as idea ... thanks to journalist Lina Lund in Sweden) ... will develop ... and how we could best design these WUaS universities' stores even to hire 2.3 million people, in 7,151 known living languages even, and with a developing robot plan both in these universities' stores, and also for sale and how they could be of service educationally to our prospective students and Universitians ...

Thoughts, ideas, questions, suggestions?

Sincerely, Scott


PS 
Seems like a Programming focus for WUaS Robotics'kits and with CS FIRST WITH GOOGLE AT WUAS is one next step ... https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Programming ... 

Seeking further collaboration with Google as well and glad they added 24 further languages at Google IO 2022 bringing their total to 133 ... And with 7151 living languages in the world there are still more than 7000 languages for Work World University and School to grow ...

what 24 languages did Google just add to Translate+? :include Assamese, Bhojpuri, Sanskrit, Dogri, Konkani, Meiteilon (Manipuri), Mizo & Maithili=133 supported languages https://www.wionews.com/world/google-translate-adds-24-languages-and-dialects-including-sanskrit-and-bhojpuri-478312 ~https://blog.google/products/translate/24-new-languages/  @WorldUnivAndSch: 7,151 living wiki https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages~













An opportunity for the WUaS Educational Services' Bookstores and Robot Stores?

Larry and Kim, 

... a good smoothie that Lillian Thomas Tweeted a few weeks ago again: Almond milk, bananas, spinach (for antioxidants & other dark greens' benefits), and peanut butter ... I seem to have lost about 20 pounds over the last 3-4 weeks, from about 212 to 193 this morning πŸ™‚ ... and in preparing for a routine checkup with Dr. DeL at KP in ~3 weeks ... may get down to 180 or so by then ... a potential goal πŸ™‚) ... And could it help me somehow meet a life partner as well? Who knows ? πŸ™‚ Fond regards, Scott  (the new Google Pixel watch - https://twitter.com/HTTech/status/1524641013780090880?s=20&t=biEbuuSCgNILNcafbwTb0Q - to be released this autumn, with industry standards for health - re Stanford Duke Google's Project Baseline knowledge generation, for example - is an interesting new development, here too with other great Google I/O developments on W May 11 and Th May 12 - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/05/cordia-macleodii-rock-concert-video.html ... including one inspiring video ...

Sincerely,
Scott 








Dear Larry and Kim,

Here is what Google announced at their Google I/0 2022: 



And how can our University Educational Services'Bookstores and Robot Stores learn from Google's new store in Williamsburg NY further - https://techcrunch.com/2022/05/11/google-second-physical-store-williamsburg-brooklyn/ ?


I think Work World University and School, regarding collaboration, is also waiting for the WUaS Wikibase.cloud migration to get done, and regarding the WUaS Wikidata 300 languages and our Academic Press at World University and School ... WUaS is in the 2nd batch regarding this migration ... And while the Terms said not to pharmacy, I'm waiting to see what else Wikidata had in store for WUaS ...

Lydia Pintscher is named on our WUaS Technical Committee. ... https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Foundation ... Lydia Pintscher is a charmer of all things free and open - https://twitter.com/nightrose/status/1482728219560271872 


The recent adding of 24 languages by Google

 (they support 133 languages now in GTranslate, their AMAZING glasses and see blog post here - https://twitter.com/Google/status/1524464030668177409 and http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/05/cordia-macleodii-rock-concert-video.html )

 ... may well help the WUaS Press in GDocs with GTranslate TensorFlowAI + ... If and as our WUaS Wikidata and Google Translate collaborations begins to interoperate more ...

Sincerely, Scott

PS
Adding this further here to today's blog post -

I CONTINUE TO BE AMAZED THAT Work World University and School is in Google Street View with time slider Maps Earth TensorFlowAI Translate with realistic Avatar Bots Electronic Medical Records and for free Bachelor PhD Law MD IB degrees here -


And no word from the district 7 California state senator's office in Orinda about moving back into Canyon again on May 29, but Ed texted yesterday that he's glad I have presently a 1 month lease and  3 months' lease agreement letters from my current landlord Navin Doshi north of Berkeley and in a 'safe house' I'm still wondering if I and WUaS could move back into a safe Canyon (thanks John Sargent MD) by Sunday May 29.  Thoughts on this?

Sincerely Scott


More about WUaS Wikidata, Wikibase.cloud and MediaWiki here at bottom - 

re the for profit general stock company WUaS Corporation in CA - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html

and in this migration WUaS 'partnered' with SWE Wikimedia I think. 






Here's one thing you can do with Wikidata in English and 299 other languages as a structured knowledge database ...with a Scottish focus -

#Wikidata noodling: I'm taking part in the International Museum Day 2022 Wikidata competition, so wanted to find things in Scottish museums whose WD items I could improve.... https://t.co/k9svbRnvnQ... 642 results, which tells me that there's a lot missing!

Wikibase.Cloud scheduled migration delays' email and reply


Mohammed Sadat Abdulai

Mon, May 16, 7:56 AM (1 day ago)
to Mohammed, bcc: me

Hello,


In April we informed you about the scheduled migration of your wiki between May 3 and May 17. We kindly request you for a bit more patience, as we currently estimate the migration of your wiki to be finished by May 24.


We have slowed down the migration process as after migrating the first wbstack.com wikis to Wikibase Cloud platform we have recognized that certain technical details of the platform could be adjusted.


We noticed on Friday morning that our session storage in Redis was struggling to keep up with the amount of traffic it was receiving even before we should have had any real traffic on the platform.


In order to ensure good quality of the services we provide to you we are going to make the necessary changes over the course of this week, along with proceeding with migrating your wikis over.


Many thanks for your patience. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please reach out to swe_partnerships@wikimedia.de

Dear Mohammed (Community Communications Manager for Wikidata/Wikibase, in Ghana, or Berlin), Universitians, VOLCANO Mwende, Lydia (who's on vacation until May 28 from autorespond to the WUaS News and Q&A email for 5/16/22 on Sunday evening), Gerard (in Philippines?, and prospective PhD student in Management and Sociology beginning Sept 1, 2022 potentially), Larry, Ed, All, 

Regarding the wiki World University and School migration to Wikbase.cloud regarding WUaS interoperating with Wikidata since 2015, and underway now: 

a
Thanks so much for letting World Univ & Sch know that the Wikibase.cloud migration completion has been postponed from today, May 17, to May 24th. This is fantastic news for the growth of World Univ & Sch's wikis, and here's a specific example of where World University and School may head now, perhaps creating WUaS world class university libraries' INSTANCES in Wikibase paralleling each of all  200 countries creation of their own national libraries and with the Wikidata & Wikibase SPARQL (not SQL querying language, but with parallels database-wise) platforms (and see the Wikibase Showcase below too) -

Thanks too Mohammed (https://twitter.com/masssly) for just retweeting this Wikidata Tweet about cryptocurrency: 

Cryptocurrency, Probability distributions and Rivers: here is what happened around #Wikidata over the past week! https://wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Status_updates/2022_05_16

https://twitter.com/wikidata/status/1526216199410941952?s=20&t=flhxDTN6HRaOaF9T_LTTnQ

Am aware that a single cryptocurrency like Stanford Mine Pi (eg with invitation here: https://minepi.com/sgkmac) distributed via UBI experiments to end poverty to all 7.9 billion people on the planet (in ~200 countries potenitally), each a Wikidata Pin# - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University - could be 'housed' in Wikidata itself and in conjunction with the German National Library (again from Tweet, here - https://www.dnb.de/EN/Home/home_node.html ), In conjunction with CC-4 ocw.mit.edu-centric wiki World Univ & Sch and the WUaS Press (), this would be in conjunction with wiki people-to-people FREE UNIVERSAL EDUCATION (a vision from the French Enlightenment too)

I've noticed in these WUaS Wikibase.cloud migration communications too, that Wikidata could be interested in the WUaS Press, and WUaS publishing, and in all 7,151 known living languages and extinct ones too, with machine translation, and machine learning, and potentially regarding the Physical-Digital WUaS Educational Services' stores, bookstores, computer stores, and Robot stores. What I didn't mention in yesterday's WUaS News and Q&A for 5/16/22 - https://youtu.be/IeHCQJyH95M accessible in yesterday's 'glob' post from 5/16/22 -
https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/05/rwenzori-mountains-uganda-drc.html - regarding developing #WUaSrobotics, and potentially building on the new Google Store in Williamsburg, NY, after the 1st Google NYC store in Chelsea part of NYC (since Google is developing Robotics too) is that Physical-Digital WUaS Educational Services' stores, bookstores, Robot stores - and regarding WUaS educational retail stores in all 200 countries and in all 7151 living languages - is that WUaS Robotics will be teaching and learning focused - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Robotics 

Thanks for this remarkable WUAS Wikibase.cloud migration development since at least 2015 when CC-4 ocw.mit.edu -centric wiki World Univ & Sch WUaS began to interoperate with the open Wikidata, in ~ 300 languages, and for codevelopment (and got WUaS MediaWiki in 2017, and Wikibase Stacks WBstacks.com in 2020 and where WUaS is now in the midst of a migration to Wikibase.cloud ... with potential implications for coding for all 7.9 billion people on the planet in 7151 living languages - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University - and as wiki teachers and learners :) (As Computer Scientist Phil Windley continues to point out the identity questions regarding cryptocurrencies continue to be enormous, having just retweeted https://twitter.com/heathervescent/status/1526372850982039552 on his Twitter feed here - https://twitter.com/windley/status/1526257851508789248?s=20&t=flhxDTN6HRaOaF9T_LTTnQ  - and which questions WUaS is also exploring in the WUaS Minutes too - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/search/label/Business%20Meeting).

Sat., 5/21/22 WUaS Agenda and News for open Monthly Business Meeting for this Saturday to come still 

Who here would like to create their own Wikibase instance of Libraries, Museums, Research, Science, Collections? :)

Libraries - 
https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Library_Resources (WUaS is planning to code for ALL libraries ever, and in all languages, - and in a realistic virtual earth for libraries, and think Google Street View with time slider, TensorFlowAI and Translate +)

Museums - 
https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Museums  (WUaS is planning to code for ALL museums ever, and in all languages, - and in a realistic virtual earth for museums, and think Google Street View with time slider, TensorFlowAI and Translate +)

Research -

Science -

This WUaS migration to Wikibase.cloud  is creating oceans, scientific field sites, universes and galaxies ... which could all input into a realistic virtual earth /universe for everything :)

All be best, Scott




Wikibase Showcase, and Wikidata and Wikbase interrelate below this - 

Showcase

Who uses Wikibase? Any organization can use it to manage and open up their structured data, and many do—in particular, data-minded GLAM organizations across the world. Here’s a sampling of them and their projects using Wikibase.

Libraries

Libraries frequently find Wikibase well suited to their requirements: it provides librarians with powerful collaboration tools with no need for prior in-depth knowledge of linked open data principles.

Research

Wikibase offers the greenfield conditions often needed by collections with large bodies of custom data in order to create an accurate representation of the unique information in their hands.

Science

We see universities and research groups using Wikibase for its flexibility and ease in collaboration, and we see it helping them bring fascinating bodies of information to light.

Collections

Perhaps no subset of Wikibase’s usership leaps as readily to one’s mind as the scientific community: huge amounts of raw data, multiple collaborators, every project’s data structure wildly different and ripe for federation.



What is the difference between Wikibase and Wikidata?Edit

Wikibase is a suite of knowledge-base software for managing linked open data, originally written for and still used by the Wikidata project.

Wikidata is the largest instance of Wikibase, a free knowledge base that anyone can edit. Its data is used by Wikipedia, by its sister projects and by anyone else who wants to make use of a large amount of open general-purpose data.

Is there a list of Wikibase instances?Edit

Although there’s no single canonical list, on our Showcase page we highlight several notable instances. For more comprehensive information you can check out the voluntary Wikibase registry and this list of federated query endpoints.
