Hi Scott,
It’s Tanya!

Pi is a new digital currency being developed by a group of Stanford PhDs. For a limited time, you can join the beta to earn Pi and help grow the network. To join Pi, follow this link https://minepi.com/tanyatomato and use my username (tanyatomato) as your invitation code.

Hi Tanya,

Thanks so much for your Mine Pi invitation to me -

https://youtu.be/MsOaC61cR3U. And how are you? And where are you with World University and School coursework toward your Bachelor degree? As you may have noticed in the WUaS Agenda & News, WUaS is seeking funding for CA's BPPE for licensing. It would be great to explore doing this through a cryptocurrency even, but I don't think either the state of California's BPPE or WUaS is ready for this. And how did you learn of Mine Pi?

That said, and per WUaS Agenda and News re WUaS seeking to facilitate a single digital currency via UBI experiments, this Mine Pi cryptocurrency is interesting with its Stanford PhD and California origins, and re UBIcs.org (UBI catalyst systems . org) which I just learned of too - for infrastructure and as idea re distribution of single cryptocurrency via UBI.

I'd like to learn more about MINE Pi. Brainstorming-wise, building on the state of California's Stockton Basic Income experiment ($500/month over 18 months to 130 adults - with studying academically its effects) - https://amp.sacbee.com/news/local/article226280230.html & https://time.com/5667715/stockton-california-universal-basic-income/ (picture of bank card re distribution), in what ways could WUaS collaborate with Mine Pi and the state of California to make this become a single cryptocurrency in a large number or percentage of 200 countries' languages (backed by their central banks, a little like the 19/28 Eurozone countries & their central banks in Brussels in the European Union) and through universal basic income experiments?

Would Stockton UBI experiment recipients be able to 'mine' a cryptocurrency on their smartphone like MAKING A WITHDRAWAL from a bank? Am curious what mining entails in the 'Mine Pi' App - and also for computer scientists' algorithm-wise. And what it could mean for Stockton residents - IF they had smart phones, and could get their CA basic income from the state of CA in Sacramento (legally too - like central bank approval / authority) that way.

I may explore teaching about both this Mine Pi as example of cryptocurrency, as well as Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning newly in my "Society, Information Technology, and the Global University" - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/InfoTechNetworkSocGlobalUniv.html - next year in 2020.

I'll seek to bring up Mine Pi per the WUaS Agenda tomorrow - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/xerochrysum-bracteatum-agenda-news-for.html.

Thanks so much, Tanya, and will check it out further with your name code,
Scott

Here are the Mine Pi FAQs ...
https://minepi.com/faq

This is how it works, and even re above hypothetical Stockton, California, UBI recipients receiving their basic income experiment in the form of a cryptocurrency like Mine Pi ... "hit the lightning button" ...

"How does this app work? How do I earn more Pi?This app allows you to earn Pi by making simple contributions to Pi’s community. The more you contribute, the more Pi you earn. Read less ...To start earning Pi, check in every 24 hours and hit the lightning button to start mining. Once you are mining, you can boost your hourly rate by inviting trusted friends and family to join the community. After 3 days of mining, you can boost your earnings more by building your security circle, which contributes to the overall security of the network. Keep in mind, earlier members of the network mine at a higher rate than those that come after them. ..."

Hi Darlene,

Thanks for your email, gmail, and nice to talk with you at Reed College's FAR. Per what we discussed (single cryptocurrency backed by some number of countries' central banks distributed via UBI experiments planning conceptually for all 7.5 billion people on planet, each a Wikidata Q-item number), a student in the first matriculating class at MIT OCW-centric World University and School just emailed me the following invitation to Mine Pi, a new cryptocurrency one can mine. I blogged about all of this here today - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/aquatic-plant-mine-pi-from-faqs-what-is.html - and thought you might be interested. How would questions of law in Oregon, and Washington (where your licensed to practice law), for example, eventually play out? And in Poland and Russia too? And in the US? Let's stay in touch about all of this.
Very nice to meet you at Reed FAR.

Best, Scott- https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/UBI- https://worlduniversityandschool.blog... - and - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/20....

[Wikidata] Personal news: a new role

Denny Vrandečić vrandecic@google.com via lists.wikimedia.org
Thu, Sep 19, 9:57 AM (1 day ago)
to Discussion

Hello all,

Over the last few years, more and more research teams all around the world have started to use Wikidata. Wikidata is becoming a fundamental resource [1]. That is also true for research at Google. One advantage of using Wikidata as a research resource is that it is available to everyone. Results can be reproduced and validated externally. Yay!

I had used my 20% time to support such teams. The requests became more frequent, and now I am moving to a new role in Google Research, akin to a Wikimedian in Residence [2]: my role is to promote understanding of the Wikimedia projects within Google, work with Googlers to share more resources with the Wikimedia communities, and to facilitate the improvement of Wikimedia content by the Wikimedia communities, all with a strong focus on Wikidata.

One deeply satisfying thing for me is that the goals of my new role and the goals of the communities are so well aligned: it is really about improving the coverage and quality of the content, and about pushing the projects closer towards letting everyone share in the sum of all knowledge.

Expect to see more from me again - there are already a number of fun ideas in the pipeline, and I am looking forward to see them get out of the gates! I am looking forward to hearing your ideas and suggestions, and to continue contributing to the Wikimedia goals.

Cheers,
Denny

P.S.: Which also means, incidentally, that my 20% time is opening for new shenanigans [3].

Dear Denny Vrandecic,

Hearty congratulations on your new role at Google. Am excited too that Wikimedia and Google are growing collaborations via this great development. And thanks so much for founding Wikidata!
Will explore in CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centric wiki World University and School's monthly business meeting tomorrow, brainstorming-wise, a Wikidata Q-item for each of all 7.5 billion people on planet earth, in 3 ways:

1) Facilitating a single cryptocurrency with blockchain, distributed potentially via Universal Basic Income (UBI) experiments (partly to alleviate poverty)

2) 'Avatar bot electronic medical records' for all 7.5 billion people.

3) Free-to-students' highest quality universal education with online major MIT OCW_centric universities in ~200 countries' main languages, and wiki schools for open teaching in each of all 7,111 known living languages (plus wiki schools for all extinct languages as well)
- https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2019/09/agenda-news-for-21-sep-2019-world-univ.html - and - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/xerochrysum-bracteatum-agenda-news-for.html.
Thank you!

to Lydia, Denny, Peter, Larry, Stephen, Katherine, Léa

Thanks Léa for your email, and glad to learn who's moderating these.

As you may know, wiki World University and School donated WUaS to Wikidata for co-development in 2015, and received WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki in 2017, but they're not yet interoperable. Per my previous email to Denny, Lydia, Peter Norvig and Larry Viehland (chair of the WUaS Board), WUaS is seeking to plan coding-wise for 7.5 billion people each a Wikidata Q-item for wiki teachers and learners in all 7,111 known living languages re https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University (where this is WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki). See, too - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/aquatic-plant-mine-pi-from-faqs-what-is.html.

Glad too to be in communication with you as Wikidata Project Manager Community Communication for Wikidata Wikimedia Deutschland - https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Lea_Lacroix_(WMDE).
Will bring up these communications in wiki CC-4 MIT OCW-centric World University and School's open monthly business meeting tomorrow. WUaS seeks to be a growth story for the internet and the Wiki Movement as well - in creating major online MIT OCW-centric universities in ~200 countries official / main languages, with parallel educational services' stores in all 7,111 living languages. WUaS also seeks to hire 2.2 million people (as big as Walmart) in all 200 countries in the process (on both wings). And WUaS has created 2 parallel legal entities in the state of California and the US for this (https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html).
Thanks so much for your email, Léa. Besides with you as Communication Project Manager, how best to further communicate about all of this with Wikidata, as well as the Wikimedia movement?

The next WUaS Monthly Business Meeting will meet on the 3rd / THIRD Saturday of the month, on October 19, 2019.

Sincerely, Scott

Agenda and News -
1World University and School continues to seek funding for beginning licensing with the state of California's BPPE (and annually after this), and re our 2nd online matriculating undergraduate program in 2020 - http://worlduniversityandschool.org. See: https://www.guidestar.org/profile/27-3105368 (and (https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Foundation)

2World University and School has inquired with incoming President of Shady Side Academy (high school in Pittsburgh PA), Bartley Griffith, about giving a talk about free-to-students' online CC-4 MIT OCW-centric World University & School's Bachelor degrees at SSA - for the benefit of Shady Side students in 2020. Were SSA to help focus what SSA students might benefit from in the first year of online College at WUaS, it would improve The College at WUaS significantly - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/The_College_at_World_University_and_School. WUaS would also seek to converse further with SSA about WUaS planned online High Schools - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/WUaS_International_Baccalaureate_Diploma_and_Programme - in many countries' languages. See - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/dolly-sods-wilderness-shady-side.html.

3Law Schools' information technology developments - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/saffron-how-to-begin-iran-law-school-at.htmlAfter recent trip to Reed College's FAR (Forum for Advancing Reed), how to begin an online Oregon Law School at World Univ & Sch, similar to planning for an online Law School at World Univ & Sch - exploring accreditation with CalBar - as well as the online Iran Law School at World University and School in Persian, building from Persian MIT OpenCourseWare (now archived). See again: https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/saffron-how-to-begin-iran-law-school-at.html

4Facilitating a single cryptocurrency with blockchain, distributed potentially via Universal Basic Income (UBI) experiments (partly to alleviate poverty)

In planning for 7.5 billion people, WUaS also seeks to explore facilitating a single cryptocurrency with blockchain ledger backed by some number of ~200 countries' central banks (think what comes post-dollar, or after the Euro in 19 out of 28 Eurozone countries) and distributed potentially via Universal Basic Income (UBI) experiments (partly to alleviate poverty, and partly to plan for offsetting job loss due to automation, technology advances and robotics etc). All of this would have many implications for the FDA re insurance companies, big Pharma, the US government, etc. - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/shoaling-and-schooling-stanford-center.html

5 'Avatar bot electronic medical records' for all 7.5 billion people.

And beyond the implications of 7.5 billion people re online clinical trials, conceptually, and re a single digital cryptocurrency, with coding, rules and regulations shared by some number of ~200 countries' central banks, World University and School also at this key moment of connecting or coding our "front end" with our "back end" would like to plan for 'avatar bot electronic medical or health records' for all 7.5 billion people. Think EPIC into 3D VR health records as electronic medical records for an integrated video record of all surgeries, for example, plus so much more - and see - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/04/flower-mantises-hymenopus-coronatus.html - all of which could have innumerable implications for the FDA, especially if they emerged in some ways out of Alphabet / Stanford / Duke's Project Baseline data developments. - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/shoaling-and-schooling-stanford-center.html

6
Free-to-students' highest quality universal education

And, conceptually, and re the generation of university-centralization on the Internet in ways that might benefit you in your role as FDA Commissioner, WUaS donated ourselves to Wikidata / Wikibase in 2015 as a "back end" database in its ~300 languages, and received as a consequence our "front end" WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki in 2017, but these aren't interoperable yet. At this key moment of bringing these together, WUaS seeks to code for matriculated students in all ~200 countries' languages, and wiki-Universitians not only in Wikidata's 300 languages but also in all 7,111 known living languages - and then for all 7.5 billion people on the planet - as wiki teachers and learners, each a Wikidata Q-item, which is Wikidata's key identifier. In planning for all 7.5 billion people as wiki teachers and learners, WUaS seeks too to create free-to-students' highest quality universal education (MIT OCW-centric+). And large numbers of these people in the US and overseas could be involved in online clinical trials, and in many many other aspects of FDA processes, and re generating a kind of university-centralization re the global internet too.

7WUaS is seeking for the above to emerge from 7.5 billion people, each a Wikidata Q item, and in a Google-centric coding environment - as well as in a single realistic virtual earth for online WUaS Medical Schools, teaching hospitals, and especially for IT management developments:

Dolly Sods Wilderness: Shady Side Academy Homecoming (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) - World University and School talk? * * * A #RealisticVirtualEarth for all National Park Service's lands as #RealisticVirtualEarthForManagement & re MIT OCW's Sloan School of M

Shady Side Academy ~ Homecoming (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania high school)

Scott MacLeod <sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org>12:21 PM (33 minutes ago)

to president, Catherine, bcc: Larry, bcc: Janie

Dear President Griffith,
Congratulations on your new Presidency at Shady Side Academy.
I enjoyed your video here -
https://youtu.be/s1YdWJ9jPJw

as well as SSA's

https://youtu.be/0qr8ca5_8jM.
I just emailed Catherine Vodrey '78 (and Sid Mazumdar '78 too) to see if she'd be at the SSA Homecoming this year (Sat. 12 Oct weekend), but Catherine won't, writing that she knows you: "Bart is a good guy who served on the BOV with me for years. I think it's cool that he's the first prez who's also an alum"). I haven't heard back from Sid yet (who was basically my best friend at SSA) - and I just visited with Catherine in her home over the Christmas holiday in 2018, as well as stayed with Sid in Baltimore during that break.
While I just sent an invitation to you, President Griffith, to connect on LinkedIn, mentioning exploring coming to SSA Homecoming myself, I'm curious about the possibility of giving a talk about MIT OCW-centric World Univ & Sch over the 12th of October weekend as an alum, - as its founder and president (and a professor there). Since I spent a year in Scotland at Fettes College between my junior and senior year, this is my 40th Reunion.
World University and School seeks to offer online free-to-students' licensing (BPPE) and accrediting (WASC) online Bachelor (and PH.D., Law and M.D. degrees). And WUaS is currently seeking our 2nd matriculating undergraduate class for 2020, as we begin the BPPE licensing process. World Univ & Sch should be an excellent opportunity for SSA graduates interested in highest quality online education (in that WUaS seeks to become the Harvard / MIT / Stanford / Oxbridge of the Internet). How might we best explore communicating about my giving a talk during SSA Homecoming? Thank you.
And very best wishes on your upcoming Presidency!
Regards, Scott

Saffron: How to begin the Iran Law School at World Univ & Sch online FOR ACCESSIBILITY to the LAW, - in Persian (& see the Persian MIT OCW here) - and turning this process into a template for online Law Schools at WUaS numbering potentially ~206 for countr

Hi Dorna, and Shahrzad,

Sounds good, and thanks for your email, Dorna; and thanks for your engagement and energy especially. One idea in these regards would be to contact Wikimedian / Wikipedian Wikidata programmer Amir Ladsgroup, who lives in Berlin I think, but is from Tehran and an Iranian, and whom I introduced to Shahrzad a few years ago (in September 2015), and to explore the following possibilities:
1) Develop the wiki Iran Law School at World University & School like - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Law_School (see related WUaS Law School examples planned in countries' languages below) - and translate the section headings into Persian (e.g. you Dorna and Shahrzad),
2) connect this new Iran Law School at WUaS's wiki page "front end" with our WUaS Wikidata/Wikibase structured knowledge database "back end" (in Wikipedia's 300 languages) with Amir Ladsgroup Sarabadani's help (and as a very very first step of making our WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki "front end" interoperable with our WUaS Wikidata / Wikibase and planned in all ~300 languages;
3) Beyond this being wiki accessible, and in Persian, focus on law accessibility design questions (e.g. you Dorna) further developing the above Law Schools at WUaS's perhaps with the English language WU Law School wiki page as a Template, or the upcoming Iran Law School at WUaS in Persian as a template which could then be used as an improved TEMPLATE for all ~200 countries' online law schools at WUaS in their main languages.
4) Begin to explore adding law school courseware in Persian at the top of this accessible wiki Law School at Iran page, which might eventually be offered online for credit to interested Persian speakers (in Iran and abroad). This is the archived Persian MIT OCW - http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/persian/ - and since MIT doesn't have a law school, WUaS is seeking to create online Law OpenCourseWare, possibly CC-4 (Creative Commons' 4 licensed, like MIT OCW) for further accessibility, and then offer this for credit.
Shahrzad, do you think you might have a little time to explore some related questions to all of this (and even re becoming a faculty member at WUaS in Persian in these regards with time as well)? And how best might we explore talking further about this?
Best regards, Scottworlduniversityandschool.org

Just searched on:
How many online law schools are there in California?

While a 2012 article from US News by Brian Burnsed said there were 12 online law schools but not having passed the California Bar, accessible from - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Law_School

today's search yielded -
https://www.calbar.ca.gov/Admissions/Law-School-Regulation/Law-Schools - which says there are 5, and are called "Registered unaccredited distance learning law schools" -

'Registered unaccredited distance learning law schools in California'

The following institutions are currently registered by the State Bar's Committee of Bar Examiners as unaccredited distance-learning law schools. A distance-learning law school is a law school that conducts instruction and provides interactive classes principally by technological means. A distance-learning law school must require at least 864 hours of preparation and study per year for four years.

8:50 AM (1 hour ago)
to Janie

Hi M,

Made it back at am, with 2 very worthwhile '15 minute sleeps' along the way. NW Oregon to the SF Bay Area - a long drive (and vehicle is working well) ... and got a kind of Taoist 'wu wei' as "non-action" as car washing in the rain in both places yesterday! :)

So nice to talk with you as a friend (and esp. as my mother - who is almost 'asleep') ... which kind of for me psychologically, I'd say, 'normalizes' things ... even as I seek a partner for family, re 'pair bonding' - http://scottmacleod.com/JohnMoneyConceptsOfDeterminism.html (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2010/05/sweet-birch-questions-of-determinism-on.html) - which can be a uniquely biological normalizing experience. Was glad to see all the Reed women in Portland who as a group seemed like kind of 'normal' women (even while being Reedies who think, and can think differently, and as writers do & can too, for example.

Glad too to have stayed with Carl & Trudy in these regards. They have a good pretty new relationship as partners, Trudy having moved in to Carl's 'messy' place about 2 years ago, and also with Carl having grown up among Oregon Quakers, and their both having lived through the '60s and 1970s in Eugene Oregon - with Oregon hippies and Oregon radicalism as part of their fabric of life, and where Trudy too is from Hermiston, OR (and Herndon was printed in Gmail:) ... and David Herndon is the former UU minister of the 1st UU church of Pgh) in eastern Oregon.

How psychologically in the above senses to seek and find a friend, girl friend, partner, wife, mom-to-be from Canyon, California' I wonder? People pair all the time (Desiderata' 'love' sentence - "Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass" .... https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html) ... so your observation in your recent 'odds and ends' email thread - to go to meetings and put it out there on the web that I'm seeking a partner on the internet makes much sense. Carefully. I learn from you here in California which can be a place of questioning norms, in its sociocultural fabric of life and history over more than century.

So thanks for the talking which felt even a bit more normal yesterday evening than in recent past (even as you were or are falling asleep). Psychologically, I'm curious too about Dad's 'ire' in my not having partnered yet, where I think connecting with a woman for family would dissolve this issue. Perhaps bagpiping lessons re connecting with a teacher for further learning (and Finlay has his own kids, so is a father), and realizing World Univ & Sch, and writing poetry & ongoing book writing, actual-virtual Harbin and realistic virtual earth project, and creativity in general, will contribute to this process of connecting with a partner somehow as well - meetings and internet-wise too. So thank you M for talking and communicating, and I appreciate what I learn in doing so too.

Hoping you have a great week, and let's be in touch soon.

Sending much love,
Scott

Talked some with Carl and Trudy about Oregon radicalism especially coming out of the 1960s and 1970s, the hippy freedom seeking movement +

As a 20 year old, Having lived in Portland, Oregon, from 1979 - 1987 while studying at Reed College for an undergraduate degree in Religion (in many ways, the social science of) and German, I absorbed, explored and lived some of the progressive and radical thinking there (re involvement in, for example, the non-violent Cathedral Forest Action Group, seeking to preserve the miniscule amount of Old Growth Forest left west of the Cascade mountain ranges, - and partly through the Quaker Meeting)

Learned from Trudy about the clashes between anti-fas (anti-fascists) and patriot prayer folks in Portland.

Searched in Google and found:

"The 15 most fascinating Portland radicals ever" - oregonlive.com

Also with an interest in how "The Ranch" in Antelope, Oregon, lead, when it closed, to many Sanyassins heading to Harbin Hot Springs in northern California (another expression of Oregon radicalism, coming out of the 1960s and '70s), Trudy mentioned a book by Les Zaitz -

Rajneeshpuram (~1981-1987) -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rajneeshpuram

Am recalling some folks I knew at Harbin Hot Springs in the early 2000s who were Osho's Sannyasins aka Rajneeshis (one from Germany, one from California, and kind of a couple I think) who found the Rajneeshi's Ashram in Pune, India, possibly in the 1970s very liberating sexually and spiritually as well. Another became a Harbin medical doctor, and have been amazed, as an anthropologist, how many sannyasins gravitated to Harbin after the ranch in Antelope closed, and interested in why, somehow socioculturally, as well ...

*
Would especially explore writing a book about Oregon a hippy heaven haven in the 1960s & '70s, but after writing an ethnographic comparison of the innovative STEM ethos's of MIT and Stanford since the 1960s (see related blog posts).

How best to create and head into a #RealisticVirtualEarthForHistory - and re ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy, and especially with regard to the 1960s and 1970s on the West Coast and around the world too? ...

Hi M,

Nice to be back in Canyon on a beautiful fairly cool day. Although I didn't talk with Friends Carl Thatcher or Jerry Gabay in Portland, Oregon, about my whistle blowing at the San Francisco Quaker Meeting re my concerns for the safety of kids from adults, or about what I think could be a need for psychiatry (and re legal questions) for a number of adults and children there, am glad Friends' Hospital in Philadelphia has a consultation phone number posted on their web site, and re a Quaker-informed psychiatric hospital outside California and with its curious recent developments, post Stonewall let's say, and also perchance outside the KP system, and related CA health provider systems. (I actually have some concerns that the complexity of issues here weren't addressed by individuals there or esp. by the Quaker Meeting itself).

And I also didn't say anything about my recent whistle-blowing at Stanford re potential ethical and legal questions, and contacting the Stanford faculty senate about this a number of times, but still not hearing back from them. (And I have some concerns that the ethical or legal issues here were also not yet addressed by the Stanford faculty senate).

Am hoping Tom and Dominic here in Canyon are connecting further, possibly re something like father-in-law and son-in-law relationship questions, and that Dom and Lindsay are successful in trying to have a child next year. Dom and Lindsay seem pretty separate from Tom (and I don't see all 3 of them very much at all).

I guess I have an interest in questions of psychology and psychiatry as suggested above, (and even re what I learned from George A), and hope to facilitate further benefits of psychiatry and related thinking online at World Univ & Sch. Would or could Gabrielle Hildebrand (who's great in so many ways), a Reed friend, and chemistry major, who's now a skillful life coach, and lives in SF with her kids potentially help head this up? I haven't talked with Gabrielle in some months, but she's both wonderful! and smart in these regards (and may also have had her hands' full with her husband too, even, who was at Reed for about a year, in 1979, before dropping out - and who is a friend too from that time). Jim's father has a Ph.D. from MIT, I think, and his parents live in Woodside, CA, not far from Stanford. (And Jim's nickname is Woody:)

But avatar bot psychotherapy and psychoanalysis - re a kind of George Alexander MD, and which avatar bots/chat bots might remember an individual's life history and learn from this, and be able to converse appropriately psycho-therapeutically - are potentially remarkable and fascinating developments re psychotherapy as information technology exchange - re language use, Lacan, talk therapy and the value of related conversation. Perhaps World Univ & Sch will be able to facilitate this, as well! :)

Methinks writing with you is a kind of exploration of some related questions, and potentially very valuable, re language use per George A's Lacanian psychoanalytic MD thinking.

Blogged a little this morning about the previous email I sent you today - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/old-growth-forest-in-200-countries-main.html- and much more re World Uni and Oregon radicalism in creative and interesting ways.

What are you up to this week?

And very nice to have talked with you yesterday evening, M!

Sending love, Scott

Dear Carl and Trudy,

Thanks so much for your kind hospitality over the weekend, and very nice to visit with you as well. And very nice to have seen you, Jerry, at Wajan's on Thursday. Sorry to have missed you, Peter, there, as well!

(I blogged a bit about Oregon radicalism and what we talked about, Carl and Trudy, here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/09/old-growth-forest-in-200-countries-main.html - and lightly about Quakers as well).

Thanks again so much for your hospitality while I attended the Reed FAR weekend (and re exploring World University and School collaborations).

Friendly regards, Scott

To Oregon Supreme Court Justice Christopher Garrett,

Dear Chris,

Great to hear you, and especially to meet you after your panel discussion at Reed FAR yesterday. Thanks so much for your excellent and fascinating sharing.

With regards to advancing Reedies, I'm writing to follow up on potentially developing a conversation about how best to develop an online Reed-informed Law School with much relevance for Oregon, and even potentially eventually 'accredited' by the Oregon State Bar Association (https://www.osbar.org/index.html) or similar, perhaps beginning with Street Law, or with - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Law_School (see below for related beginning online Law Schools at WUaS in other countries and planned in their official / main languages). How best to offer to Reedies online Law School opportunities? And online internship opportunities, online law faculty in multiple states and countries' languages opportunities, as well as online legal staff and coding opportunities re FAR, for example, as a beginning?

World Univ & Sch, which is like Wikipedia in ~300 languages with CC-4 MIT OCW in its 5 languages, seeks to offer online licensing and accrediting degrees, beginning in California for free-to-students' online Bachelor and Ph.D. degrees, in English, as WUaS first licenses with CA's BPPE. WUaS online Law and Medicine degrees will follow the rolling out of the these first two degrees, and first in English (and Chinese and Spanish as well early on).

How might we best communicate further about all of this? Thanks so, so much and very nice to meet you. (Will probably email your co-panelists soon about some of these questions as well). Thanks again!

Best regards,
Scott

Dear Andrew, Susan, Sherilyn, Ben, and Chris, whom I've already emailed (and Darlene '01 also a lawyer, with whom I talked about a single cryptocurrency with blockchain ledger distributed by UBI experiments potentially to all 7.5 billion people on planet),

Great to hear you, and especially to meet you after your panel discussion at Reed FAR yesterday - https://www.reed.edu/advancing-reed/s.... Thanks so much for your excellent and fascinating panel re Reed's Legal Network. And nice to meet and talk with some of you afterward.

Am writing also to bring to your attention CC-4 MIT OCW-centric World University and School's planned online Law Schools - and potentially their benefits to Reedies. One of the interesting aspects of Creative Commons 4 licensing is that it it allows WUaS to 1) share OCW, 2) adapt it, but 3) non-commercially (and see further disclaimers here - http://worlduniversityandschool.org) and because of the non-commercial attribute that WUaS is planning to offer free-to-students' university degrees (like in many other countries) but online. How best to explore then finding departments of education to reimburse World Univ & Sch for these online accrediting / licensing degrees - in all ~200 countries and potentially in all 50 states? These US states, for example, would be getting in many senses MIT OpenCourseWare and related OCW for free for their citizens! In what ways might the Oregon Department of Education be able to reimburse World Univ & Sch for matriculated law students at what it might cost to go to study at the University of Chicago law school, for example?

With regards to advancing Reedies, I'm writing to follow up on potentially developing a conversation about how best to develop an online Reed-informed Law School with much relevance for Oregon, and even potentially eventually 'accredited' by the Oregon State Bar Association (https://www.osbar.org/index.html) or similar, perhaps beginning with Street Law, or with - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool... (see below the related beginning online Law Schools at WUaS in other countries and planned in their official / main languages). How best to offer to Reedies online Law School opportunities?

WUaS online Law and Medicine degrees will follow the rolling out of the these first two degrees, and first in English (and Chinese and Spanish as well early on).

World University and School, and re advancing Reed especially, seeks to become the Harvard / MIT / Stanford / Oxbridge of the Internet, and in all ~200 countries' official and main languages. (Darlene and All, please check out the UBI label here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/se... - and in the World University and School blog as well re WUaS exploring facilitating a single cryptocurrency backed by some number of ~200 countries' central banks, eg https://worlduniversityandschool.blog...).

How might we best communicate further about all of this re the Reed Legal Network? Thanks again so, so much and very nice to meet you. Thanks again!

Hi Reedies,

An active blogger, with a 'Reed College' label, I've blogged a couple of times about Reed FAR -

Monterrey Spanish mackerel: Reed 'Forum for Advancing Reed' - FAR meetings ... and re World University and School collaborations?

into a #RealisticVirtualEarth too (
@HarbinBook)

Active on Twitter too, just tweeted about beginning online Law Schools, here about the upcoming Reed Legal Network meeting in Prexy at noon -

Reed Legal Network meets at noon with an associate OR Supreme Court justice who was a Reedie, as panelist. Planning @WorldUnivAndSch online Law Schools in ~200 countries' main languages, & in 50 US states (re Bar Associations) beginning with CA & OR too https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Law_School ~

https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1173302029059600387

And as a Castellian (re Manuel Castells - http://globetrotter.berkeley.edu/peop...), am exploring here Reed engagement re Castells' "Communication Power" (2nd ed.) book - https://global.oup.com/academic/produ... (and highly recommend its introduction in particular).

Seeking to teach online the free open 'Information Technology, the Network Society and the Global University' course - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/InfoTechNetworkSocGlobalUniv.html - in 2020 to World Univ & Sch's 2nd matriculating class, even as we seek too to hire Reedies in graduate schools to teach sections of an online (Reed) Hum 101 leading to the bringing the conference method online to MIT OCW - https://ocw.mit.edu/.

Reed cheers, Scott

hi Hannah and Katie, Michael and James, Thomas (and Ci Ci and Grisha), and All,

Nice to talk with you and thanks for your presentations just now.

In related areas at World University and School, check out the MIT OCW here -

... and ... /Programming

( https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects )

And here's the free Scratch drag and drop programming languages -
https://scratch.mit.edu/ - which is fun to play with . . .

Mandarin language (Chinese) -

( https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages )

Tom Hoang & Brian Martin MD, and Catherine Dalton MD (do you know each other?) -
https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Medical_School (Tom - World University and School is planning an online medical school with online teaching hospital in Vietnam and the Vietnamese language).

(I couldn't find Grisha Post or Ci Ci Yin's email in the Reed directory, probably since they aren't alumni yet, not having graduated). If you know what they are please let me know.

Brainstorming-wise, Bryan and All - see here about a single cryptocurrency with block chain ledger distributed via Universal Basic Income and possibly via a WUaS Wikidata Q item to all 7.5 billion people on planet - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/08/gymnadenia-nigra-orchid-wuas-minutes.html.

Just networking a bit re Forum for Advancing Reed, and MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School.

Reed regards, Scott
