This document discusses ceteris paribus (other things being equal) clauses in laws. It argues that ceteris paribus clauses are meaningful and not inherently vague. It provides examples to illustrate how background knowledge allows the determination of what would count as a "disturbing factor" for a given law. The document also argues that laws with ceteris paribus clauses do not need to correspond directly to regularities, but rather can be associated with inference rules that are reliable for their intended purposes. Ceteris paribus clauses allow laws to be qualified in their application and restrict them to certain purposes where they are good enough, even if not strictly true in all cases.
Bernd & Hilla Becher fueron fotógrafos alemanes conocidos por sus meticulosas fotografías en blanco y negro de arquitectura industrial vernácula. Durante décadas, viajaron por Europa y América del Norte documentando estructuras como hornos, depósitos de agua y casas de máquinas que ilustran la evolución de la arquitectura industrial. Sus imágenes proporcionan una visión desapasionada de estas construcciones que de otra manera habrían caído en el olvido.
This document discusses Open Educational Resources (OER), which are freely available educational content that can be reused and redistributed. Some key points:
- OER aims to reduce education costs, increase accessibility, and encourage collaboration on educational content.
- Providing free content expands access to knowledge and education. OER allows customization of content to local contexts.
- While OER eliminates textbook costs, it requires resources to develop materials, train instructors, and maintain technical infrastructure. Revenue streams and partnerships can help address these issues.
- Individuals and institutions can work collaboratively to develop, adapt, promote and ensure quality of OER through various partners and initiatives. Starting small and leveraging existing resources

The document discusses ways that companies can wreck their relationship with customers and invade their privacy, such as by contacting them at all hours without consent, not having or properly implementing a privacy policy, and not respecting rules around direct marketing. However, it notes that these practices would be unwise and in many cases illegal due to laws like POPI that give consumers privacy rights and allow for penalties against companies that violate those rights, such as large fines or imprisonment. The talk serves as a warning to companies to properly respect customer privacy.

The document discusses online community mapping and proposes a model for collaborative geospatial mapping using open source technologies. It outlines how social software tools like wikis, blogs, social bookmarking and tagging can be combined with geographic information systems and open standards like GML and SVG to allow public participation in mapping and sharing of user-generated geospatial data. Mechanisms like permalinks, trackbacks, and RSS/Atom feeds enable social interaction and discourse around geo-located content. Examples show how social software is being used to facilitate collaborative geospatial mapping online.
