  • FTC Restores Rigorous Enforcement of Law Banning Unfair Methods of Competition

    • “When Congress created the FTC, it clearly commanded us to crack down on unfair methods of competition,” said FTC Chair Lina M. Khan. “Enforcers have to use discretion, but that doesn’t give us the right to ignore a central part of our mandate. Today’s policy statement reactivates Section 5 and puts us on track to faithfully enforce the law as Congress designed.”

      • discretion

      • mandate

      • crack down on: take severe measures against

    • The Federal Trade Commission issued a statement today that restores the agency’s policy of rigorously enforcing the federal ban on unfair methods of competition.Congress gave the FTC the unique authority to identify and police against these practices, beyond what the other antitrust statutes cover.

      • rigorously: in an extremely thorough and careful way

      • antitrust: relating to legislation preventing or controlling trusts or other monopolies, with the intention of promoting competition in business.

      • statute: written law passed by legislative body

        • constitution: a body of fundamental principles or established precedents according to which a state or other organization is governed. e.g. CONSTITUTION OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF CHINA

    • The FTC’s previous policy restricted its oversight to a narrower set of circumstances, making it harder for the agency to challenge the full array of anticompetitive behavior in the market.Today’s statement removes this restriction and declares the agency’s intent to exercise its full statutory authority against companies that use unfair tactics to gain an advantage instead of competing on the merits.

      • oversight: management and supervision; unintentional failure

      • tactic: an action or strategy carefully planned to achieve a specific end

      • merit: the quality of being particularly good or worthy, especially so as to deserve praise or reward

  • China releases measures to optimize COVID-19 response

    • BEIJING — The Chinese government on Nov 11 released a circular on further optimizing the COVID-19 response, announcing 20 prevention and control measures.

      • circular: a letter or advertisement that is distributed to a large number of people. e.g. “I received a circular from a building society”

  • Lee Kuan Yew’s comment on Michael P. Fay

    • There are certain things that, if we move and yield, we have to yield to other people too. And if we do that , we have to ask ourselves “Have the systems done the work?”. Supposing we say, “Alright, because he’s an American boy, because the American president has asked us not to cane him, and we say alright, no caning”. Where’s your stand where’s your faith? If you don’t cane the boy just because he’s American, and meanwhile you cane the Indians, Pakistanis or Bangladeshis, what kind of government are you? What kind of stand do you have? Are you saying that “you are afraid of American”, yes we are, but not that afraid. You came to Singapore and you abide by Singapore law, and that’s our responsibility to enforce our law.

        Why notwithstanding is spelled like not-with-standing?
        The word "notwithstanding" is an example of a compound word that combines "not," "with," and "standing."
        "Not" negates or indicates absence.
        "With" suggests accompaniment or inclusion.
        "Standing" derives from the verb "stand," indicating a state of being or position.
        Together, "notwithstanding" means "in spite of" or "regardless of," reflecting the idea of standing firm despite certain conditions. Its spelling reflects its historical evolution and usage in English.
        
        For example:
        - In legal contexts: "Notwithstanding the fact that they did not have enough money, she insisted on going."
          (despite the financial situation, she insisted on going)

  • in the RSP or even SPARQL query result optimization context or in the context of RSP or even SPARQL query result optimization, which is better, from the perspective of native speaker or fluency or meaning clarity? #chatgpt

    • #+BEGIN_QUOTE
      Both phrases, "in the RSP or even SPARQL query result optimization context" and "in the context of RSP or even SPARQL query result optimization," are grammatically correct and convey a similar meaning. However, in terms of fluency and meaning clarity, "in the context of RSP or even SPARQL query result optimization" might be preferred.
      
      This formulation flows more smoothly and is easier to understand. It clearly identifies the broader context, which is "RSP or even SPARQL query result optimization." Placing "in the context of" at the beginning of the phrase helps establish the framework before specifying the specific subject matter.
      
      Ultimately, it is important to consider the overall flow and readability of your writing. If the context phrase is part of a longer sentence or paragraph, it may be best to evaluate how it fits in the surrounding text to ensure coherence and clarity.
      #+END_QUOTE
  • I use lots of since in my paper, but few because. Is this normal? why i think it weird to use because in paper writing? #chatgpt

    • #+BEGIN_QUOTE
      It is not uncommon to use "since" more frequently in academic writing compared to "because," and there are a few reasons for this.
      
      Objective tone: Academic writing often strives for an objective and formal tone. "Since" is considered more neutral and less subjective than "because." It focuses on presenting a cause-and-effect relationship without explicitly stating the underlying reasoning or justification.
      
      Conciseness: "Since" is generally considered a more concise word compared to "because." In academic writing, where brevity is valued, using "since" can help convey the cause-effect relationship efficiently.
      
      Emphasis on results: Academic papers often prioritize presenting findings, results, or observations rather than emphasizing personal opinions or subjective reasoning. Using "since" allows you to focus on presenting the observed relationship or evidence without delving into the subjective reasoning behind it.
      
      While it is not inherently wrong to use "because" in academic writing, using "since" more frequently is a common practice in the scientific and scholarly community. However, it is essential to maintain clarity and coherence in your writing. If using "because" helps strengthen the logical flow and understanding of your arguments, there is no harm in using it appropriately.
