Caution - Nerdiness
So I was watching Sean Carrol talk about scale in terms of energy in electron volts.. from a neutrino at possibly around 10^-3 ev to 10^37 ev.. the top of the Planck scale at around a freight train's energy.
So Im thinkin..well.. freight train isnt so much.. but then..thats
**for every particle** like.. a few drops of water has trillions..

"#Socialnetworks were built on short posts designed for #speed & #scale. But what if the next era of the web was built for something deeper?
Two of the #socialweb’s “#longformers”…John O’Nolan, CEO of #Ghost, and Matthias Pfefferle, developer of the #ActivityPubplugin for #WordPress, are integrating social features with blogs, newsletters, essays…
We talk about rediscovering the magic of the #blogosphere… and where writing belongs in the next chapter of the internet."

Among supporters of #DirectDemocracy, I noted these thinkers: #Clisthenes, #Rousseau, #Diderot, #Arendt, #Proudhon, #Castoriadis, #Brown, #Dardot, #Laval, #Negt, #Kluge, #Lefort, #Abensour, #ColliotThélène, #Mouffe, #Rancière. Aside from #Gauchet's thought (whose critique I published below), I haven't read any valid critique of #DirectDemocracy, except for the #Scale issue, as we've already discussed.

It will be about the ongoing #adaptation of intrinsic #brainactivity to #environmentalstimuli. In other words, the #brain's #own #activity, the so-called “#spontaneousactivity” with its “#scale-free #dynamics” (“#nestedness”, which is measured in the “#resting-state”) must adapt to #audiovisual #inputs from the #environment.
