A quotation from Horace

When thy next neighbours house is all on fire,
’Tis thy concern to make his flames expire;
For fire will gather strength if let alone,
And with thy neighbours house burn down thine owne.
 
[Nam tua res agitur, paries cum proximus ardet.
Et neglecta solent incendia sumere vires.]

Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
Epistles [Epistularum, Letters], Book 1, ep. 18 “To Lollius,” l. 84ff (1.18.84-85) (20 BC) [tr. A. B.; ed. Brome (1666)]

re: the city or territory of x minutes

“A territory’s economic resilience is measured not only by its ability to attract external flows, but by its capacity to generate value, employment and essential services locally…resilience is built, first and foremost, through the everyday organisation of proximity…It creates negotiation spaces that are more tangible, less ideological and more focused on concrete issues: opening a service, reusing a building, sharing a facility, activating a public space or introducing a new activity.“

By Carlos Moreno over at Barcelona Metròpolis.

#Natural #Renaturation can take many forms in #Berlin, for in few other #majorcities do #abandoned #places and #vibranthubs of activity lie side by side. Therefore, #ruins, #waste, and #urban #biodiversity can exist in close #proximity, as is the case near historical but #repurposed #ruins like the RAW site in Berlin-#Friedrichshain.

I recently stumbled upon the Proximity integration of Home Assistant as well as Traccar to track your devices. Until now, I used the iCloud3 v3 component to do such things. Time to compare them.

Night time, I'm in the middle of some writing. Castorp comes out of his den, he shakes himself up, then settles on the rug next to me. He sits there for a while, perfectly still. Then he gets up again and moves back into his den.

Oh that trust can be so complete and unpolluted.

A quotation from Ouida

The longest absence is less perilous to love than the terrible trials of incessant proximity.

Ouida (1839-1908) English novelist [pseud. of Maria Louise Ramé]
Friendship, ch. 11 (1878)

Tonight's bad scifi movie is Proximity, which was released in 2020. Way better production values than last night's movies but just as silly and messy.

📢 Study update! We are about 2/3 of the way through the #Behavioural #Immunity study! 🧠📊 Our high schoolers have been buzzing with activity. This journey has been all about uncovering how perceived #health #risks influence #social #interactions. The data is flowing, the insights are growing, and we are inching closer to understanding how social behaviour and health perceptions intertwine.

Thanks to everyone who has been part of the study so far. You are powering some truly fascinating science (despite occasionally forgetting to return your #proximity #sensors and taking them home for a little adventure 😅). Our sensors are great at collecting data—when they’re not crying out for a charge, that is. Check out the picture of our masterful charging #cable #management!

In tonight’s tutorial, we talked about how psychology makes sense of emotions like love. Is it all subjective? Maybe not as much as you think. Love can be studied scientifically—not just through brain scans showing neurotransmitters like dopamine and oxytocin but also through observable behaviours.

Take reciprocity: when someone likes us, we’re more likely to like them back. Or similarity: shared values, interests, and beliefs often strengthen attraction. Add proximity and familiarity—the magic of repeated exposure—and you start seeing how relationships form. Then there’s complementarity: where differences between people don’t divide but balance and enhance connection.

What fascinates me is how psychology bridges the personal and the universal. Yes, love feels deeply subjective, but studies show patterns we can test and measure—observing behaviours, tracking emotional responses, and using physiological data to explore what we feel.

Have you noticed these dynamics in your relationships? #Psychology #Love #Relationships #Emotions #Reciprocity #Similarity #Proximity #Familiarity #Complementarity

Is there a way to #encrypt #proximity?

Basically some way of encoding location so that, if two places are close to each other, you can immediately make out, but if they aren't you can't pinpoint where exactly the location is 📍

Don't know if that's mathematically possible, but if it were it'd be cool 📐
