Le 30 novembre dernier, un fragment du Codex Tlaquiltenango, originaire de l'État de Morelos, au Mexique, et trois sculptures en céramique de Nayarit ont été restitués à l'ambassadeur du Mexique en Espagne.

The Codex Mendoza, composed in 1541, was an attempt to memorialize Aztec culture, capturing knowledge of a world that was swiftly disappearing. Let’s flip through its pages together.
I'm working on the "Coptic Wizard's Hoard" and finally think I managed to understand the ritual:
It's not two separate texts as interpreted so far, it's one ritual requiring two invocations: The 1st bestowes the magician with the understanding to perform the 2nd.
Still, have to do more research into the content of the invocations and the Coptic terminology.
Codex is the new design system for #Wikimedia projects which provides a library of design tokens, user interface components, and catalog of icons to use with these components, which is available to #MediaWiki extensions and gadgets
Today in Writing History July 12, 1562: Fray Diego de Landa, Bishop of Yucatán, burned the sacred idols and books of the Maya. There were many Mayan books in print at the time of the conquest. They were produced as codices, or folding books, printed on bark paper by professional scribes and were the main written record of Maya civilization. De Landa wrote: “We found a large number of books in these characters and, as they contained nothing in which were not to be seen as superstition and lies of the devil, we burned them all, which they regretted to an amazing degree, and which caused them much affliction.” There are four known Mayan codices still in existence.
I was on the hype train for crypto back in 2016 and realized too late that it wasn't useful. I have seen firsthand how tools like ChatGPT are going to change the world for the better.
I had a nice day at home with the dogs, and also I was able to listen to a lot of talks throughout the day for my boot-edition #AcademicRunPlaylist! (1/11)
Next was an engaging talk by Mireia González on applying computational certifications to avoid impossible to enforce laws at #Stanford#CodeX. Some laws are logically impossible to implement, leading to programmers who build systems to enforce them effectively legislating on their own. González's work shows how systems can help legislators validate that their law does what they want it to do https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pDB24ysfbg (10/11) #law
:heart_sp_bi: Hi, I'm Clarissa; I write #queer#sciencefiction and #fantasy (and in-between things) as C. C. S. Ryan. You can read some of my short fiction online, but my focus is novels.
I also enjoy #drawing and do #graphicdesign, from book covers to theatre posters - follow me at @wintersweetdesign for art!
Currently I live in (upstate? central?) New York , because California was too expensive to survive in.
The Codex Astartes names this manuever... ?
