Evolucija u tehnologiji --- Revolucija u ponašanju (tema pariskog LeWeb3 2007, 11-12 Dec) - Da li smo mi prva generaciji koja je svedok ove inverzije? U normalizovanom smislu, naravno: o mnogim pojavama u prošlosti možemo da pričamo kao o micro/mini inverzijama, tj revolucije u ponašanju su suviše male u odnosu na sveukupno ponašanje, ponekad su razvodnjene u vremenu, pa je teško biti svedok.

Normalizovanu i u smislu postavljanja perspektive, ili referentne tačke, između tehnologije i ponašanja, inače možemo da tvrdimo kako su i promene u tehnologiji i promene u ponašanju revolucionarne.

Povod za blog je Percolation Theory. Više puta smo ovu teoriju pominjali na blogu u komentarima.

Moja popularna definicja kaže da "kako mreži postepeno povećavamo gustinu postoje tačke, perkolacioni pragovi, gde se mreži naglo povećava moć" (snaga, bogatstvo, neki njihov više ili manje abstraktan derivat, pričamo o abstraktnim konceptima).

Nemam pojma kako se ovo prevodi, svaka čast talentima, "Sveti Monstrumi" mi tesko, kao da "monstrum" monstruoznije zvuci na srpskom nego na engleskom.

U modernom baletu pod istim imenom igraju Sylvije Guillem i Akram Khan, ko god se setio svaka mu čast, tesko da je mogao bolje da se seti i prilepi uz lik Sylvije Guillem - neverovatna žena.

Povod za blog su mi ti "monstrumi" (neverovanta je hipnotička moć te mračne strane - gledam kako mi posle par rečenica ono "sveti" već polako i podsvesno ispada iz idioma), ne Sylvija, iako nam balet donosi dva "sveta monstruma" ("monstruma", da skratim), pa tako i definicija postaje lakša:

"3 Western Balkans countries and Turkey join EU research programme
Today, the Republic of Croatia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and the Republic of Serbia will sign Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) with the European Commission to enable them to participate fully in the EU's Seventh Research Framework Programme (FP7). "Associated status" allows these countries, as well as Turkey, which signed a similar MoU on 1 June, to participate in all calls for proposals and compete on an equal footing with the EU Member States for research co-operation and support actions funded by FP7. As such, this agreement is an important part of the process of applying to join the EU, allowing scientists, universities and companies to create links with their counterparts across Europe and build up their scientific expertise, including in scientific fields crucial to implementing the body of EU legislation. Croatia and Turkey had already participated as associated countries in the Sixth Framework Programme; for Serbia and FYR Macedonia this is the first time they will participate in the programme in this way.
