Archiving Machines by Amelia Acker

From Punch Cards to Platforms

The story of the rise of networked data through the evolution of archiving and digital storage.

Archiving Machines advances our understanding of memory, information, and data by charting the struggle between the computing technologies that archive data and the cultures of information that have led to platforms that assert control over its use.






Amelia Acker examines the origins of data archives and the computing processes of storage, exchange, and transmission. Each chapter introduces data archiving processes that relate to the evolution of data sovereignty we experience today: from magnetic tape and timesharing computer models from the 1950s, to the establishment of data banks and the rise of database processing and managed data silos in the 1970s, to file structures and virtual containers in cloud-based information services over the past 40 years.

Prologue
The Andes uplift occurred about 100 My ago and has significantly impacted the climate and environment, not only in the Andes but also the surroundings, extending to regions such as the Amazon basin and the Pacific Ocean coasts. This orographic process created new habitats, promoting isolation and diversification, resulting in a variety of environments with biodiversity hotspots and endemism.

Black Garden: Armenia and Azerbaijan Through Peace and War by Thomas de Waal, 2013

Since its publication in 2003, the first edition of Black Garden has become the definitive study of how Armenia and Azerbaijan, two southern Soviet republics, were pulled into a conflict that helped bring them to independence, spell the end the Soviet Union, and plunge a region of great strategic importance into a decade of turmoil.






This important volume is both a careful reconstruction of the history of the Nagorny Karabakh conflict since 1988 and on-the-spot reporting of the convoluted aftermath. Part contemporary history, part travel book, part political analysis, the book is based on six months traveling through the south Caucasus, more than 120 original interviews in the region, Moscow, and Washington, and unique historical primary sources, such as Politburo archives. The historical chapters trace how the conflict lay unresolved in the Soviet era; how Armenian and Azerbaijani societies unfroze it; how the Politiburo failed to cope with the crisis; how the war was fought and ended; how the international community failed to sort out the conflict. What emerges is a complex and subtle portrait of a beautiful and fascinating region, blighted by historical prejudice and conflict. The revised and updated 10th-year anniversary edition includes a new forward, a new chapter covering developments up to-2011, such as the election of new presidents in both countries, Azerbaijan’s oil boom and the new arms race in the region, and a new conclusion, analysing the reasons for the intractability of the conflict and whether there are any prospects for its resolution. Telling the story of the first conflict to shake Mikhail Gorbachev's Soviet Union, Black Garden remains a central account of the reality of the post-Soviet world.

文字と会話は包容力というか許容性が全然違うからなぁ。「でけへん」も「でけひん」も「できへん」も「できひん」も「できん」も「でけん」も地域差があるとはいえ関西人の会話の中では全て丸く内包されてるけど、伝達手段としての文字は音よりも許容性が下がるので違和感がでてくる。大迫構文の「そんなんできひんやんふつう」は「できひん」自体は滋賀～京都あたりが主流の言葉で、摂津の僕にとっては音はまったく違和感ないが、字にするとめちゃめちゃ違和感がある。

Now again, I have to stress the fact that the Black teen in Ohio was gunned down by police. Video evidence proved he was fleeing and its not clear if he ever made any threatening motions towards cops at call.

A gun was recoved, but its was never fired nor pointed at officers.

However ALSO in Ohio this week a young white man actually tried repeatedly to shoot a cop at close range with a gun ON CAMERA.

He was arrested alive without any serious injuries.

How strange...

Maybe another way of putting all this is that if I look at something like an LLM and ask "how can I make it ethical," I wind up with something that is probably pretty ethical, but it no longer resembles an LLM at all. Like, you can't train one at the scale of an individual artist, or on work that you can meaningfully obtain consent for. The "large" in "large language model" is incredibly load-bearing.

어제 해커스펍 송년회를 잘 다녀왔습니다. 이동하는 버스 안에서 제 해커스펍 주소를 QR 코드로 열심히 만들었는데, 막상 공유할 용기는 없어서 못 했네요 ㅋㅋ

전날까지도 갈까 말까 고민을 많이 했었는데, 부담감을 이기고 다녀오길 정말 잘했다는 생각이 들었습니다. 라이트닝 토크도 하나같이 유익했어요.

저는 클로드 코드는 아직 써보지 않았는데 (토큰이 살살 녹는다는 얘기를 들어서요 ㅋ ), 이야기를 듣다 보니 요즘 대세는 확실히 클로드 코드인가 싶더라고요. 이제 써볼까 생각만 하고 있었는데, 어제 라이트닝 토크 발표를 듣고 나니 “바로 시작해봐야겠다”는 생각이 들었습니다. 🐱‍💧
