There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say, for the sake of simplicity, a fence or gate erected across a road. The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, “I don’t see the use of this; let us clear it away.” To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: “If you don’t see the use of it, I certainly won’t let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it. 1) + + +[//begin]: # "Autogenerated link references for markdown compatibility" +[chesterton]: chesterton "Chesterton" +[go]: go "Go" +[quote]: quote "Quote" +[//end]: # "Autogenerated link references" \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/jonathan-the-utopian.md b/jonathan-the-utopian.md index ba0713462..b7ff7720e 100644 --- a/jonathan-the-utopian.md +++ b/jonathan-the-utopian.md @@ -11,6 +11,12 @@ ## Meet +### [[2021-01-23]] + +- Greetings! +- Working hard on setting up the curriculum for the course at [[ETH]] +- [[chestertons fence]] + ### [[2021-01-01]] - Super cool that you have a blackboard in your room! - VC is very inclusive and we can always have this, no matter where we live. @@ -83,6 +89,7 @@ [Smart Agora]: smart-agora "Smart Agora" [project]: project "Project" [utopoi]: utopoi "Utopoi" +[2021-01-23]: journal/2021-01-23 "2021-01-23" [2021-01-01]: journal/2021-01-01 "2021-01-01" [jonathan]: jonathan "Jonathan" [flancian]: flancian "Flancian" @@ -90,11 +97,13 @@ [category theory for programmers]: category-theory-for-programmers "Category Theory for Programmers" [agora]: agora "Agora" [users]: users "Users" +[stoas]: stoas "Stoas" [push]: push "Push" [hofstadter]: hofstadter "Hofstadter" [utopia]: utopia "Utopia" [missing devices]: missing-devices "Missing Devices" [noded]: noded "Noded" +[focus]: focus "Focus" [liquid democracy]: liquid-democracy "Liquid Democracy" [agora plan]: agora-plan "Agora Plan" [2020-12-18]: journal/2020-12-18 "2020-12-18" diff --git a/journal/2021-01-23.md b/journal/2021-01-23.md index 3705330e9..e812b8b4a 100644 --- a/journal/2021-01-23.md +++ b/journal/2021-01-23.md @@ -1,6 +1,7 @@ # 2021-01-23 - [[agora clients]] +- [[jonathan the utopian]] [//begin]: # "Autogenerated link references for markdown compatibility" [agora clients]: ../agora-clients "Agora Clients"
