Small Fragment of the History of The Corporation of The City of London

Image
The City dates back to 1067, ... See  City of London Corporation . The bit that struck me just now is this: The City of London Corporation had its privileges stripped by a writ quo warranto under Charles II in 1683, but they were later restored and confirmed by Act of Parliament under William III and Mary II in 1690, after the Glorious Revolution. With growing demands on the Corporation and a corresponding need to raise local taxes from the commoners, the Common Council grew in importance and has been the principal governing body of the City of London since the 18th century. In January 1898, the Common Council gained the full right to collect local rates when the City of London Sewers Act 1897  transferred the powers and duties of the Commissioners of Sewers of the City of London to the Corporation. A separate Commission of Sewers was created for the City of London after the Great Fire in 1666, and as well as the construction of drains it had responsibility for the prevention ...

That sent me off thinking about triangles again, so I spent the whole evening talking to Google AI about Euclid and Aristotle. It told me Aristotle didn't refer to anything in Euclid's Elements because Aristotle died 20 years before Euclid wrote the Elements.  (See Andrei Rodin's letter in Support of Svetlana Mesyats  --- I hope she didn't spend too much of her grant money on AI chatbots!).  I made a video of the transcript but YouTube seems to have eaten it. Ah, no, it eventually showed up. I guess Google AI had to do character recognition to check that all this wasn't against community guidelines, ... Wow, that must have burned some GPU cycles, ...

For people like Louis' grandmother and I: Docker is an implausibly complex solution to some sort of problem created when people started using virtualization in the real-world.

See Catching Up on the Software Noosphere  and  I'm Still Looking for A Job ). See  https://futo.org . Casey Muratori on Digital Due Process At this point you need to talk to theologians, I think.

This is the easy way to get on top of the problem: What is the problem we're trying to solve? Sharing photos and videos, I guess. What is the resource that we are trying to control access to? Connectivity, I guess. Why do we need to do this? Because some people take photos and videos...

I saw this scene this morning before I came here. When I arrived at the SEM in Boudry there was a magazine, with a photo of the Queen saying she has a sense of humour. Well, that's A Good Thing. Francis Bacon Triptych May-June, 1973 : Triptych, May–June 1973 is a triptych completed in 1973 by the Irish-born artist Francis Bacon (1909–1992). The oil-on-canvas was painted in memory of Bacon's lover George Dyer, who committed suicide on the eve of the artist's retrospective at Paris's Grand Palais on 24 October 1971. The triptych is a portrait of the moments before Dyer's death from an overdose of pills in their hotel room. See this Red Hand Files post.  The Jobs that Are So Necessary .
