Have any culture ever devised a proper #hexadecimal notation? I'm not speaking about utilizing the Latin #letters (a-f/A-F) as the #digits.
For instance, is there ever a #glyph which would mean "ten" in any context, just like 2 means "two", even if standing alone.

Social media — a platform for thinking aloud.

A great morning at the European Youth Parliament, talking about #gender , #masculinity and #empathy

Streaming channel idea:
thesis/article writing scholars livebroadcasting their efforts, commenting on writing obstacles and obscure sources that change hither and dither from one reading to the next

So, we've got Arizona, Kentucky, Oklahoma, and West Virginia with teacher strikes in the US. Starting to look like a real movement pushing back against a low tax-low spend society. I'd like to see a few more join in. I'd like to see enough that you need a single serving website like areteachersinmystateonstrikeforfairness.com. I'd like to see Texas teachers go on strike, too.

I'm giving a 10 minute presentation to a faculty group on how #OER can be helpful and how I can help them find OER. Hence the uptick in talking to myself lately. I'm certain it will go fine, but I'm thinking I need to run through it again.

#introduction Doctoral student at Carnegie Mellon studying privacy and security. Trying to get into making weird art on those topics. I eat a lot of bagels.

But it has to be one person's invention, apparently

Minor annoyance: no matter how much I stress that actor-network theory was developed over time by Michel Callon, John Law, Annmarie Mol, and yes Bruno Latour, students still say things like "Latour's actor-network theory." Interesting how a theory stressing complexity in the generation of knowledge gets reduced to One Man's Invention
