‘De Alpenfederatie’ is een spectaculaire dystopische roman die zich met slimheid wil onderscheiden
Nederlandse fictie: Gregor Verwijmeren schreef een dystopische roman over een tijd waarin grote delen van Europa overstroomd zijn. Het is een spectaculair verhaal, maar soms wat nerdy en voorspelbaar.NRC

Ethical dilemma: Should knowledge be free? - Michael Vazquez and Will Kanwischer
TED-Ed (YouTube)
Puzzle through the ethical dilemma of intellectual property rights, and decide: how should we determine ownership of work?
--
In the city of Ockham, spellcasters invent incantations and publish them in scrolls that others can purchase. Unfortunately, you can’t always afford them. But one day, a friend tells you he uses an illegal duplication spell to copy scrolls. So, do you use his counterfeit scrolls to further your own research? Michael Vazquez and Will Kanwischer explore the ethics of intellectual property rights.
Lesson by Michael Vazquez and Will Kanwischer, directed by Patrick Smith.

La imagen es una ilustración animada de un personaje de dibujos animados, un anciano con barba larga y un sombrero con una luna y una estrella. Está sosteniendo un rollo de pergamino blanco con ambas manos, mirándolo con una expresión pensativa. El fondo es gris, y en la parte superior izquierda, hay texto en letras grandes y amarillas que dice "THE COUNTERFEIT SCROLLS DILEMMA". En la esquina superior derecha, hay un logotipo de TED-Ed en rojo. La imagen parece ser una portada o una ilustración para un video educativo de TED-Ed sobre un dilema relacionado con pergaminos falsos.

TIL that the famous mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss *might* have proposed constructing a giant diagram illustrating the Pythagorean Theorem, large enough to be visible from the moon or Mars, in order to communicate with extraterrestrials!
Historians can’t be sure. However ...
“Gauss's writings reveal a belief and interest in finding a method to contact extraterrestrial life, and that he did, at the least, propose using amplified light using a heliotrope, his own 1818 invention, to signal supposed inhabitants of the Moon.”

@CppGuy @c0debabe I don't see how the design near the bottom is nonsense? it's a cat with bubbles, Japanese text and English text that's a bit jpeggy after a few rounds of editing and reusing. The artifacts are because there used to be sensible Chinese or Japanese ad copy that's been replaced by the "English"
I looked through the rest of the listing and the "cat" kanji getting replaced by English "cat" pretty clearly confirms imo it''s on-image machine translation
