I love the parallel between the way Aaron and Jefferson is holding up Miles…

Aaron: Swaying from side to side, holding miles legs by the front not all the way around his legs/ankles and miles having to shift his feet to stay steady.

(Is not stable for miles and not completely keeping miles safe and could get him hurt)

Jefferson: Holding still, holding miles legs by having his hands around miles legs/ankles, miles don’t need to shift to be steady.

(Is stable for miles and makes sure he is safe and make sure he can not be hurt)

I thought of something different when I saw this. Jefferson is steady holding Miles because he has experience in it. When he and Aaron were growing up and getting into trouble, I’m sure Aaron did the handiwork while Jefferson held him up. He knows the drill. Aaron is all shaky because he’s used to being the one up top.

Te Hiku Media gathered huge swathes of Māori language data. Corporates are now trying to get the rights to it

“In March 2018, Peter-Lucas Jones and the ten other staff at Te Hiku Media, a small non-profit radio station nestled just below New Zealand’s most northern tip, were in disbelief. In ten days, thanks to a competition it had started, Māori speakers across New Zealand had recorded over 300 hours of annotated audio in their mother tongue. It was enough data to build language tech for te reo Māori, the Māori language – including automatic speech recognition and speech-to-text.

The small staff of Māori language broadcasters and one engineer were about to become pioneers in Indigenous speech recognition technology. But building the tools was only half the battle. Te Hiku soon found itself fending off corporate entities trying to develop their own indigenous data sets and resisting detrimental western approaches to data sharing. Guarding their data became the priority because the only people truly interested in revitalising the Māori language were the Māori people, themselves.”

“‘They suppressed our languages and physically beat it out of our grandparents,’ Jones says. ‘And now they want to sell our language back to us as a service.’”

…

“It would mean entrusting data scientists with no connection to the language to develop the very tools that will shape the future of the language. And worst of all, it would mean that Māori would miss out on the economic opportunities created using the language that belongs to them, much like they didn’t see the economic benefits of the land that belonged to them.”

Feel Good: 1x02

Feel Good (2020)

My whole life I’ve felt like I’m not in the right place, like even when I was a kid I just felt like there was some other place that I was supposed to be, always running behind this other place. And I’ve been with good people, really good people, people who love me. And I lie next to them and I just feel so restless. And then when I lie next to you I feel still, and quiet deep inside. I think you’re that place I’ve been running behind.
