There are a few so-called 'historians' spreading misinformation about the massacre of Jains by Shaivas/Nayamnars in Madurai during the 7th century CE.

Even left-leaning #wiki debunks this claim. Please help to stop the spread of this fake narrative. Share with others as much as… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage
As per @jainism_info This is historic site where Jain monks were killed , it is called raktasamanam ( blood of jains).

A plain translation of word 'raktasamanam' means 'blood of equality' or 'blood for honor' but this handle continued to perpetuate a false theory ?

@jainism_info The Impalement of Jains is an event that dates back to the 7th cen. It was first mentioned in an 11th-century hagiographic Tamil text by Nambiyandar Nambi.
As per text, Jain monks allegedly persecuted Sambandar, Shaivite child-saint, in 7th century and attempted to kill him.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImageImage

Thread: #Alnatura. Der Bio-Lebensmittelhändler mit 1,12 Mrd € Umsatz entstammt der sektenhaften Weltanschauung #Anthroposophie Rudolf Steiners.

Alnatura fiel durch krude Esoterik, schlechte Arbeitsbedingungen und der Ablehnung von Gewerkschaft und Betriebsrat auf.

Thread 🧵
Gründer von #Alnatura ist der Anthroposoph und ehem. Waldorfschüler Götz Rehn. Seit den 1970ern hängt er dem esoterischen Glauben an. Er ist der Schwager des #dmDrogeriemarkt-Gründers und Anthroposophen Götz Werner und Professor an der privaten Schwurbel-Hochschule @wwwalanusedu.
Sein Leben und sein Unternehmen richtete #Alnatura-Gründer Götz Rehn nach Hellseher und Okkultist Rudolf Steiner aus. Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft will Rehn nach der sektenhaften #Anthroposophie und ihrer "Sozialen Dreigliederung" ausgerichtet sehen.

During my morning coffee, I had a good old chat with my friendly AI bot, to see what it had to say about Morpheus.Network and tokenization.

First I wanted to know about the term tokenization that is often talked about:

Not a bad answer, but perhaps there is more to it, so I wanted some more details. A good follow up question is:

» Wir waren dabei: So lernen Klimaaktivisten sich festzukleben «
Von @MarieBusse4

Guter Beitrag zu #letztegeneration, auch wenn natürlich vieles heute schon überholt ist.

(kostenlos lesbar mit Anmeldung)
noz.de/deutschland-we…
@MarieBusse4 "Mehr über das Innenleben der Organisation „Letzte Generation“ wird nicht verraten. Wer die Straßen für die Blockaden aussucht … Wohin der „Support” die Informationen schickt … Nur so viel: Es gibt eine klare Hierarchie bei den Aktivisten."

Dafür gibt es doch das #Wiki
"Hintergrund der Recherche
Die „Letzte Generation“ hat nach mehreren Anfragen eingewilligt, eine Reporterin zum Training zuzulassen. Das gesamte Training durfte nicht begleitet werden, sondern nur der praktische Teil …"

Genau nach zentraler Vorgabe 👍

Trending news of The Rock's daughter Simone Johnson's announcing her new Stage Name is breaking our Versus tool because "Wrestling Name" isn't in our database!

Here's the most useful #Factualist comparison pages #Thread 🧵 Image
What is the difference between “pseudonym” and “stage name?”

Pseudonym means “a fictitious name (more literally, a false name), as those used by writers and movie stars,” while stage name is “the pseudonym of an entertainer.”

I am very excited to announce the official launch of LlamaoGrants, a joint collaboration between @DefiLlama and @10b57e6da0 that looks to bring better transparency into Grants and Incentives programs across crypto.

Read on anon, this is exciting…

wiki.defillama.com/wiki/LlamaoGra…
1/ First off, how did we get here? Well, my background in the non profit space (IRL Sov has been Board President for a food bank for a number of years) and recent experiences with grants in the traditional sense got me thinking on how I would like to learn more on this topic.
2/ Like many of you I have been seeing one announcement after another around “Ecosystem Funds” and was curious as to how these programs work in comparison to some of the programs I have had personal experience with in a 501(c)(3).

#Avui fa 2️⃣0️⃣ anys va néixer la @Viquipedia en català. Menys de dos mesos abans els emprenedors californians Jimmy Wales i Larry Sanger havien posat la primera pedra de la gran enciclopèdia virtual. L'#etimologia del seu nom és ben curiosa. Obr fil @AlexHinojo Image
Al gener de 2001 estava de moda un nou model de pàgines web anomenades #wiki, que en idioma hawaià vol dir “ràpid". Així, una pàgina wiki és aquella que s’elabora amb programes d’edició que faciliten la creació de contingut per part de qualsevol visitant de la pàgina. ImageImage
A partir, doncs, del software wiki, Wales i Sanger no dubtaren a batejar el seu revolucionari projecte democràtic com a #wikipèdia, l’ “educació ràpida”, d’acord amb l’etimologia híbrida del terme. Image

Systems thinkers: are there any systematic introductions to Systems Thinking you can point me to (microsites, videos, presentations, animations, visualisations)? Ideally visual, interactive, engaging & digestible by a total newbie? #systemsThinking #systemsEducation #senseMaking
I'm looking for existing projects/demos out there, similar to the ones created by @ncasenmare with @explorables, but specifically presenting Systems Thinking concepts. Another one is @vicapow's Explained Visually setosa.io/ev/ (btw: fantastic works). Any suggestions?
ncase.me/loopy/ by @ncasenmare is the closest thing I discovered so far, but is covering only causal loop diagrams (CLD). Another one is the GIF with dynamic stock and flow diagram of New product adoption model on the System dynamics #wiki article en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_dy…

Good morning #HeyPresstoConf20!

I’ll briefly show how I use my #WordPress website as an evolution of the Renaissance era commonplace book. This now often goes by the other names #wiki, #digitalgarden, #secondbrain, or #zettelkasten.

boffosocko.com/2020/09/24/557…
Commonplaces are essentially scrapbooks filled with items of every kind: recipes, quotes, letters, poems, proverbs, prayers, formulas. Commonplaces are used by readers, writers, students, & scholars as an aide-mémoire for concepts/facts.
#HeyPresstoConf20
boffosocko.com/2020/09/24/557…
Commonplace books (or commonplaces) are a way to compile knowledge, usually by writing information into books. They have been kept from antiquity, and were kept particularly during the Renaissance and in the nineteenth century.
