  1. Chinese #humanoidrobots showcased their improved #athleticism and #autonomousnavigation skills at a #halfmarathon in #Beijing. The winning robot, developed by #Honour, finished the race in 50 minutes and 26 seconds, beating the human world record. While the #robots’ performance impressed spectators, experts caution that translating these skills to widespread commercialisation in industrial settings remains a challenge. reuters.com/sports/humanoid-ro #China #Tech #ChinaTech #Technews

  2. An interaction in Chapter 2 of Ishiguro's The Remains of the Day inspired me to write a Substack article on metaphors we may not consider to be metaphors. I focus on #professionalism and #honour.

    Check it out, and pick up a copy of the book. I hear the movie isn't half bad. In fact, I borrowed the image asset from Amazon.

  4. The sacred space this evening.

    May the Gods guide us and the ancestors surround us with their wisdom in these uncertain times. May we walk honourably where dishonour is rife, and may we speak and act wisely where ignorance abounds.

    #Laichwiltach Nation’s Hereditary Chief Tsahaukuse's (aka George Quocksister Jr.) traditional, #handwoven Chief's #hat. Made from yellow #cedar bark with beading & an #EagleFeather attached.
    Sitting in front of the woven hat is a row of some #handcarved miniature canoe #paddles, carved from red & yellow cedar. Chief Darren Blaney of the #Xwémalhkwu aka #Homalco #FirstNation #carved over 100 of these paddles. They were carved in #honour of the many young Homalco lives lost.

  6. James #Bowman in his essay on #Honour [1] claims two things:

    1. The concept of honour is completely gone in the current society
    2. Honour never changed from its original sexist machismo-based concept of violent man and chaste and innocent woman.

    I believe that both claims are very wrong. Yes, the word is abandoned, but the moral concept is very alive, only in the very changed form.

  7. "The #law is the most powerful engine through which ideologies can become self-replicating engines. John Locke’s theory of property as the endowed right of white men to use and to produce worked like witchcraft—the natural world, which had sustained societies for thousands of years, could suddenly be taken by force, enclosed, and tilled for the sole profit of one man, with trespassers punished. The conversion of land into one person’s permanent property was not permissible under the indigenous populations who had long occupied it, nor was such a thing permissible anywhere in the world except Europe—and even there, only after the enclosure movements of the 1600s."
