Scottish Gaelic language learning?
Dear Serena & Meg,
Greetings! I'm writing to inquire if you might like to explore learning the Scottish Gaelic language together in an online social setting ?
A little out of the blue, it's a brainstorming and social learning online question, I'm writing about.
Learning a new language can be great for the "use it or lose it" thinking from experimental psychology I learned about at Reed College (from a lot of animal experiments) in the first half of the 1980s - and regarding neurons firing regarding keeping our brains and the mind active, even through the centuries ahead, and with genetic longevity drugs emerging. If we could find a dynamic teacher - an older Scot for example - who might appreciate the company in a weekly video call, learning a new language with such a person could be a remarkable win-win situation.
I could look online, and possibly, for example, reach out to Wilson McLeod (https://twitter.com/
I think it could be fun to all meet together and learn Scottish Gaelic for a whole different world view way of thinking too :)
We could also try the iterating adaptive learning AI in Duolingo as part of this - https://www.duolingo.com/
I also just found this -
In a lot of communities in Scotland there are Gaelic speaking groups who meet on a regularly so that speakers of all levels can come together to use and improve their Gaelic in an open, friendly, helpful environment. Most of these can be found with a quick search online and they're always looking for new members!
... and possibly re community of Gaelic learners in Scotland even ... interesting (to me).
And the Gaelic College in Nova Scotia also comes to mind in some of these regards.
I could also ask PM Stuart Liddell pipe major of the Inveraray and District Pipe Band - with whom I've taken piping lessons, and he's a virtuosic Light Music piper to my ear, and a focused learner, and quite understanding too - if he might have ideas for a Scottish Garlic conversation and learning teacher (perhaps he'd even join us!!!:) I could also inquire with George Preston, who was the housemaster in Kimmerghame house in 1977-78, when I studied at Fettes College in Edinburgh for a year during high school, and who is in his 90s, former keeper of the Old Fettesian records, and is wonderful in a Scottish way (as a school master, and former teacher of physics too:).
Brainstorming, Serena and Meg - any interest in riffing with this Scottish Garlic learning possibility - as a win-win opportunity and social too?
(Others would be very welcome - Brent, Sophie, Josie, Chris, Joth, your mother, friends, Angus G., with his quite Scottish name, Nancy Wilder Frazel ...Scot-o-philes and similar) ...
Cuttyhunk regards, Scott
Here are some Scottish Gaelic words I've found on Twitter recently -

Developing a plan, talking when I'm in Massachusetts? ~ In this interesting uncertain time regarding moving back possibly to a newly safe open 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon 94516 or somewhere else in the Bay Area, after flying there on 10/1/23 ... NSF Concept Paper for WUaS Realistic Virtual Earth for Everything
Dear Sid, John, Ma, Ed,
Greetings! How are you?
In this interesting uncertain time regarding moving back possibly to a newly safe open 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon 94516 or somewhere else in the Bay Area, after flying there on 10/1/23,
Sid -
am grateful for your having visited Canyon, Pin, with your wife, and family, and for my having visited you in Baltimore last year,
John -
for your observation to my question, John, on the phone in May of 2022 as we hung up, that it makes sense to move back into Canyon if it's safe, but how to know of it's become safe is the question,
Ed -
and for your call, Ed, on F 8/25/23 to me on Cuttyhunk with the planning, WUaS Academic Medical Center ideas, flying
Ma -
In the meantime, the groceries came from WM successfully on the ferry, about 5 or 6 bags, in 2 milk crates (so $10) ... and a first for groceries from them. Good to have food through toward the end of the month.
Sent in a concept NSF Major Research Instrumentation 1 page 'white paper' or 'concept paper' (see below) in email paper yesterday - per a NSF invitation - and think the next steps will be actually potentially going through the somewhat NSF rigorous submission process ... https://new.nsf.gov/
Appreciating blogging daily and tweeting, but seeking conversation friends ...
Seeking to speed up with the WUaS Longevity Genetics' institute in California potentially the Aging Reversal and Longevity Genetic drugs' generation process - in a physical-digital realistic virtual earth for Genomics and for Pharmaceuticals, and glad I sent in the NSF Major Research Instrumentation Concept Paper below ... It's easier to call for this than to code for this ... but a team could help much.
{Hi Ma! How are you doing, and how is your week going? Hoping your week is starting out well. Per the email I just sent regarding building a realistic virtual earth for Aging Reversal being easier called for than coded for ... I think that collaborations with Google, and especially Peter Norvig, could facilitate fascinating developments in these regards. Interesting uncertain time regarding moving back to the SF Bay Area, and I wonder how a MIT network could help with this too - Larry Viehland, Brent Hall, Don Tatzin, Jim Spohrer and others. Love, Scott (https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/longevity) }

Google's New Street View Cameras Will Help Algorithms Index The Real World
Google's Counsel Kent Walker :
I’ve written previously about how we at @Google think about AI responsibility and driving collaboration. Today, I wanted to share a bit more about how we’ve been building on our responsibility work over the summer–and keeping it up as we head into fall.
Simulation Development
https://www.sciencedirect.com/Google Search and the Universe with NASA (& this with Google Maps, Earth and Street View)
Excited to partner with @NASA to bring 3D models of planets, moons and spacecraft to Google Search (and in AR on mobile too!), along with a new @googlearts project exploring our solar system.

create a
Realistic Virtual Earth For Lego Robotics, for learning for WUaS Home Robotics in engineering & STEM degrees and relating to much major physical instrumentation (eg using digital & physical lasers and Lidar in autonomous vehicles' VR modeling (eg Waymo)) and potentially with Lego Robotics
About Lidar and lasers:
In cars, Lidar technology helps the vehicle sense and understand its surroundings. The technology uses laser pulses to create 3D mappings of its environment, including objects like buildings, roads, and other vehicles. This information is then combined with other data to ensure safe navigation
5 Intellectual Merit
How important is the proposed activity to advancing knowledge and understanding within its own field or across different fields? How well qualified is the proposer (individual or team) to conduct the project? (If appropriate, the reviewer will comment on the quality of the prior work.)
To what extent does the proposed activity suggest and explore creative, original, or potentially transformative concepts? How well conceived and organized is the proposed activity? Is there sufficient access to resources?
will potentially create a whole new parallel earth and universe for STEM with revolutionary implications
6 Broader Impacts
How well does the activity advance discovery and understanding while promoting teaching, training, and learning? How well does the proposed activity broaden the participation of underrepresented groups (e.g., gender, ethnicity, disability, geographic, etc.)? To what extent will it enhance the infrastructure for research and education, such as facilities, instrumentation, networks, and partnerships? Will the results be disseminated broadly to enhance scientific and technological understanding? What may be the benefits of the proposed activity?

PS
The 3 questions WUaS asked in text chat -
1
Would a realistic virtual earth for everything (think Google Street View w time slider wvTensorFlowAI) paralleling planet earth (so physical-digital)- be a research instrumentation project that the NSF has a history with? See: create a #NDimensional #

CC-4 licensed MIT OCW-centric, Wiki, World University & School (WUaS) seeks to build a realistic virtual earth further (think Google Street View with time slider) as campus and STEM field site (and has the green light to accredit and license with Middle States Commission on Higher Education and the state of PA’s department of education - and planning to offer online Bachelor, PhD, Law, MD, IB high school, AA and Master’s degrees, in 200 countries and in their main languages). Does the NSF award grants to virtual campuses? Should an applicant university be fully accredited? Thanks, Scott GK MacLeod CC-4 licensed MIT OCW-centric, Wiki, World University & School (WUaS)
definition of an instrument -

NSF program director and convener Jonathan Friedman suggested my emailing a white paper to mri@nsf.gov -
and
Souleymane Diallo (DMR/MPS) replied:
Please consult the appropriate PO for the NSF supported discipline this development will benefit. I suggest you contact POs listed under NSF/GEO for further guidance
Souleymane Diallo:
Souleymane Omar Diallo. Program Director, NaFI/DMR/MPS. Office: (703) 292-8302; E-mail: somardia@nsf.gov;. Dr Diallo currently serves as a program director
so both people replied to my questions in text chat.
