11.2 Social network ---CAI YAYU

 1.Summarize 

 Social networks are platforms for connecting and communicating on the Internet. They allow users to create profiles, post messages, share multimedia content such as photos and videos, and connect and interact with friends, family and other users. Social networks can also offer features such as chat, video calls and online games, allowing users to communicate with people thousands of miles away in real time.

2. Interesting point

The smallest unit of analysis in a social network is the individual in his or her social environment, the 'actor' or 'self'. Self-network analysis focuses on network characteristics such as size, strength of relationships, density, centrality, prestige and roles such as the lsolator, liaisons and bridges. This type of analysis is most commonly used in fields such as psychology or social psychology, ethnographic kinship analysis or other genealogical studies of relationships between individuals.

3. Discussion point

 What are the effects of social networking on individuals and society today, and what are the positive and negative aspects of these effects?

Science & Futurism with Isaac 2_extra credit

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRStfFOwcsM The video "What If The Dinosaurs Hadn't Died Off?" by AlternateHistoryHub explores a fascinating hypothetical scenario: what the world might look like if the dinosaurs had survived the catastrophic events that led to their extinction 66 million years ago. The video delves into various aspects of this alternate history, examining the potential impact on mammalian evolution, human development, and the planet's ecosystems. The video begins with a brief overview of the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event, which wiped out the dinosaurs and allowed mammals to become the dominant life forms on Earth. It then explores the possible consequences if this event had never occurred. The narrative is engaging, combining scientific knowledge with imaginative speculation to paint a vivid picture of an alternate Earth. One of the most intriguing points discussed is how the survival of dinosaurs might have affected mammalian evolution. Witho...

Commodification of wood carving In fact, the situation described above is a thing of the past. It's not completely changed, but there are a few exceptions now with the penetration of the monetary economy. These changes, presumably, began in the 1960s, when farmers in Zafimaniri began selling crafts. The artefacts were originally purchased by Catholic priests in France to minimize food shortages during bad harvests. Also, around the same time, the museum affiliated with the Antananarivo University, Madagascar's largest institution of higher learning, began collecting specimens from all over Madagascar, and the "folk arts" inherited from the mountains were also extensively collected. As a result, the exquisite wood carvings of Zafimaniri were first recognized overseas and later by the wealthy class in China. The penetration of monetary economy has brought the following effects to the production of wood carving. 1. Before the beginning of professional commercialization, ...

There are many different types of governments, with democracies, totalitarian regimes and everything in between. A type of government always has a ideal state, however in reality it often deviates. Basic political systems are autocracy, aristocracy, democracy, republics and federalism. Democracy can be either direct or indirect. In the indirect form, the people vote for representatives, who will then act on their behalf in making governing decisions. In a government, power can be divided into several functions. A commonly known model is called the 'trias politica'. The legislature, executive and judiciary powers are divided over several institutions. This is often applied to democracy as it ensures no one has the power to undermine the system. Sometimes a government works on the principle of a multiparty system. A party or a ...
