Hi Alex and Salina,

Nice to see and dance with you at the Scottish Country Dancing party in Aptos near Santa Cruz (in kilts with tie die or Hawaiian shirts) yesterday -
https://www.rscds-sf.org/events/pdf/MP%20flyer.43.pdf.

You'll find the fascinating interview, which we talked about, with
Google's Head of AI, Peter Norvig here -
https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/06/mimic-octopus-new-machine-learning-wiki.html
- if interested.

(And here's more about "Layer 2" and why the potentially revolutionary
blockchain ledger isn't scalable -
https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/06/oak-numismatics-in-what-ways-will.html
- and re a single cryptocurrency with blockchain ledger, backed by ~200 countries' central banks, and for a Universal Basic Income to spread this (which World University and School is seeking to develop potentially - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States).

Please keep me posted about how your company works with the Google ecosystem A.I. / TensorFlow / Google Maps/Earth / Mexico / China / photos, Alex. You'll find an example of CyArk, a non-profit in Oakland, building architectural VR / AR for Myanmar temples here in a related vein -
https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/04/dendrobium-lindley-realistic-virtual.html (and this blog "label" might interest you, Alex - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/architecture). WUaS seeks to develop a realistic virtual earth for both architecture and archaeology, for example - for everything actually :) - in something like Google Street View with TIME SLIDER / Maps / Earth / Brain and at the cellular and atomic levels --

See you along the Scottish country dancing trail ... will you be at St. Clement's for SCD tomorrow, Salina?

Hi Salina and Alex,

Here, by the way, are Thailand World University and School - 

and the Thai language wiki subject page - 

And here too is Scotland WUaS - 

Free-to-students' CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centric university and high school degrees are planned online as well. 

And here is the SCD wiki subject ... 

All of these will improve when these WUaS Miraheze Mediawiki "front ends" connect with Wikidata/Wikibase as a "back end," where Wikidata is in 301 languages, like Wikipedia. 

And here you are in a photo, Alex - https://twitter.com/TheOpenBand/status/1003429703326228481 . 

See you along the Scottish country dancing way. :)

Cheers, 
Scott

Hi Sparky, 

Nice to see and dance with you at the Scottish Country Dancing party in Aptos yesterday - https://www.rscds-sf.org/events/pdf/MP%20flyer.43.pdf.

Here's more about "Layer 2" and why the blockchain ledger isn't scalable - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/06/oak-numismatics-in-what-ways-will.html.

Hi Sparky, 

As a followup, not sure how to get to wondrous 'free fall" re sky diving or, in a parallel way, "flow" for loving bliss neurophysiology elicitation with Scottish country dancing as an "on-off" switch (thinking MDMA here as biology reference experience), but this will be interesting to explore further. Here are the dancing - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/dancing - wiki subject in my blog, where I've explored some of these questions a bit, the "loving bliss" blog label - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/loving%20bliss - as well as the wiki subject - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Loving_Bliss_(eliciting_this_neurophysiology) . 
And here's the SCD wiki subject ... 

And here's the slightly mind-turning Harvard Law CryptoKitties' talk, for your interest, about which we talked ...
