Constructed world considerations such as 12-bit tribbles as smallest data unit, multilingual coding paradigm, alternate history of media formats, 16^3 (so 3 elements of 16 unique possible sub-glyph each) ideogrammic dictionary, synthetic android machines of the Stellaris' Rogue Servitor vibe, no Wilsonism or at least way less of such, electricity cars are way ahead, harmonious collaboration on technologies, more variety in ways of thinking aka spirituality and rationalism coexist better, Panian grammars strongly credited link to Turing+Church thesis, less spatial exploration, even less extroverts success compared to introverts, smaller world, more isolation in between social spheres so less harmonious as of the last few decades, less biological matters understanding, medical technologies somewhat behind by two decades, cross-dimensional idiosyncratic imports, synthetic developments ahead by ~20-40 years, free high education similar to Soviet Union / Russia's, much wild-west style software piracy space on the sidelines, many super advanced free software resources to levels like Habrahabr and beyond, synthetic service grids outpacing human agencies' controls yet keeping a neutral attitude towards humans, many disperate computer networks instead of the world wide web we know, lesser adoption of such hyperTech by the laymen as non-enthusiasts went back to some sort of early 20th century-style primitivisms, some sort of aesthetic subculture tribe diversification developments growing real strong as of the last two decades, earlier global pandemic around 1996-2000, advanced nuclear energy abundance, more cross-national collaboration + harmony, sapient-kinds inclusivity as early as the last century or the last half-millenia, longer historical record going back more than ~2000 further into their past (so like 3000 BC instead of 1000 BC here)...

So I want to make a general-purpose (if I had to choose one topic, it would be to describe symbolic computation ala 'TuringTarpit' around video rental store deque operations) programming language 'Servitor' with specific analogical media and low-tech [any medieval scroll vellum media included] constraints in mind.

In Jüngers Tagebüchern gibt es eine Passage, in der er über die Macht der Schriftzeichen schreibt. Er macht das anschaulich mit einer Erinnerung an Hongkong. Zumindest in den Zentren der Stadt sei den Schriftzeichen immer die Übersetzung in römischen Majuskeln zur Seite gestellt. »Wenn der Blick eine solche Gruppierung umfasst, wirkt sie wie eine Kombination von Blüten und Zweigen: Blüten die Ideogramme, Zweige die Buchstaben.« Jünger ist der Überzeugung, dass sich in den fremden Zeichen als dem Ungedeuteten die eigentliche Kraft verberge. Das sehe ich zwar anders – und es passt auch nicht zu seinem Bild von den Zweigen und Blüten, denn die Kraft verbirgt sich ja gerade im Zweig –, aber mir gefällt, wie er beobachtet. Außerdem empfinde ich das Nebeneinander von Zeichen hier auch so.

Nicht Schriftzeichen, sondern Zeichen des Ländlichen, das sich an bestimmten Stellen ins Städtische übersetzt. Schon hier im Haus, einem alten Gutshof. Da liegt ein Teppich, wie ihn Städter haben. Weil das Haus Städtern gehört und Städter hier Ferien machen.

Der Bauer nebenan baut in seinem alten Hof Ferienwohnungen aus. Er hat sie mir gezeigt. Sie entsprechen in Gestaltung und Einrichtung dem Geschmack der Menschen, die hier leben. Zum Beispiel gibt es eine Einbauküche aus dunklem Holz, und auf einem Tisch steht ein Ostergesteck in einem gelben Körbchen, aus dessen Mitte ein apfelgrünes Metallschild ragt, auf dem in geschwungener Schrift »Frohe Ostern« steht. Wenn in Berlin die Rede von der Uckermark ist, sind nie solche Wohnungen gemeint.

Der Bauer verdient sein Geld vor allem mit seinen Schweinen. Er verkauft ihr Fleisch. Doch sein Hof ist auf keine Weise zertifiziert, und somit bürgt kein Bio-Siegel für die Lebensbedingungen der Schweine, die jeden Tag auf die große, schlammige Wiese nebenan geführt werden, um dort ihre Rüssel tief in die Pfützen zu tauchen. Gestern verkaufte mir der Bauer fünf Koteletts für zusammen fünfzehn Euro, außerdem zwölf Eier für zweifünfzig. Ich verstehe nicht, wie er damit Gewinn macht, aber wie soll ich auch nach einer Woche hier alles verstehen?

Als ich einmal spätnachmittags vorbeikam und der Bauer wenig Zeit hatte, nahm ich an, jetzt müssten sicher die Schweine reingebracht oder der Stall ausgemistet werden, doch der Bauer berichtete, dass er mit seiner Frau zur Tanzstunde gehe. Standard, nicht Line Dance.

Shanghai theories and analysis

First, some info about Mandarin and Chinese languages. The letters/ideogrammes are the same across the whole country but are pronounced differently according to the language (Mandarin, Cantonese, etc.) so all of the Chinese languages can communicate through writing. Then even if the letters are the same in latin alphabet (the one used in a lot of European languages - English, French, Spanish, German, etc.), the meaning could be different with the four intonations in Mandarin (è é ē ě). For example ma could mean house, mummy or horse depending of the intonation used. That could explain why Marinette say something “weird” at the end: she didn’t use the right intonation for the word sister, jiějiě which looks/sounds thank you, xièxiè. By the way, I think the name of the Renlings are the animal’s name in Chinese.

It happens after the NY special since we saw a figurine of Jess transformed. So the time line is S3 > NY special > Shanghai special > S4 it seems. Edit: Thomas Astruc said it was an animation mistake and the figurine should have been Sparrow, not Eagle. Anyway it’s still weird: Marinette acts like pre S3 finale toward Adrien and Ladybug post S3 finale toward Chat noir. And in the Intro, the Miracle Box has the Ladybug shape like at the end of S3. And since Cash finishes in jail at the end of the special and he was in the NY one.

I hope he stays in jail because he knows who is Marinette’s uncle and where he lives so I hope he won’t use this information against her in the future...

Since Cash was in both specials, he might be there to steal the American miracle box just like he stole Fei’s bracelet. 

So after the almost nuclear war in the NY special, we know now that Gabriel pays Cash to harass a man and might also have pay for a murder disguised in a fire accident... (except if his death was an accident during a criminal fire). But what was his plan 15 years ago (before/around Adrien’s birth)? We know he wanted the prodigious now to have more power to defeat Ladybug and Chat noir, but why 15 years ago? And how did he learn the existence of the holy grotto anyway? Could Audrey Bourgeois or Tomoe Tsurugi have told him? Did he force Nooroo to explain him? Is it the reason he wants Adrien to learn Mandarin? Because of this place and what happened in Tibet?

I just hope Gabriel has nothing to do with Fei being orphan and/or be presented to a poor and struggling school because she is also 15 years old, the time where he starts getting interested by that school. I made a joke theory about Fei having a red lock just like Nathalie but now what if? I know Nathalie seems more Caucasian but Fei could be biracial with more Asian features. 

Cash is also the only person outside of Nathalie (and Leeri) to know Gabriel Agreste is Hawkmoth. But I doubt Gabriel bought the bracelet in person. But he sent Nathalie there so maybe he can make the connection.

I found Bastille (the parrot) really special. He’s pretty old for a grey parrot and he was pretty interested in Jess figurine who is a Miraculous holder. Is he something close to Meishi, the guardian of the prodigious? And why does he, a Chinese parrot, have a French name*? Plus the Cheng family has their own songs. So maybe they’re a big family, a clan or something...

*Bastille is a name known during the French revolution to be a jail where the nobles locked away the revolutionaries. The storm of the Bastille or Bastille day is often mistaken for the choice of the French National day but the real one was a year after, the Federation day, when the French people was united.

About Sabine’s backstory, it sadly something common for Asian people who immigrate in Europe, or at least in France from what I know. For example, during my studies we have one year two Tawaian exchanged students and they have to choose a French name... It really surprised me at the time and I didn’t understand since they were ready to learn a whole different language and we couldn’t make the effort to learn two names... I think it’s racist to expect more effort from people of color than white ones... This part was sadly realistic and can happen to Asian people.

So Sabine (Xia Ping) might have face racism when she comes to France and we don’t know why yet (maybe it was for Tom or she met him after). We already know it with her father-in-law and people ignorant of Chinese culture (like calling her Mme (madame) Dupain-Cheng instead of Mme Cheng). She must be a really strong mind to stay this nice and kind with all that! She’s one of the best mom in the series! (with Max’s mom in my opinion). 

Since Adrien is now Marinette’s Chinese professor, I hope we will see a scene of it in S4 but I know I can dream.

I have the headcanon Wang Cheng will take care of Fei now :) Since she was the magical ingredient and she will teach the accordion to Wang!

Please correct me if I said something wrong about Mandarin and Chinese culture ><

Ideogrammic Characters are Hard Mode, obvs.

(Chinese has a pretty limited range of sounds so native Chinese speakers have a lot of difficulty with speaking/listening to foreign languages with a wider phonetic range.)

WE ARE FOREVER

别让爱熄灭 DON’T LET MY LOVE DIE OUT 

尽头是永远 THE END IS FOREVER

这爱太绝对 THIS LOVE IS TOO PERFECT

绝对 juéduì absolute / unconditional

绝：to cut short / to disappear / to vanish：simplified from 絕 - phono-semantic compound: semantic 糹(pictogram “silk”, mì) + semantic 刀 (pictogram “knife”, dāo) + phonetic 巴 (pictogram of a a kneeling person, jié) — to cut silk threads.

对：right / correct / opposite /to match together / to adjust / to fit：simplified from 對 (duì) (more about this character)

  世界上绝对静止的东西是没有的。   There is nothing in the world that is absolutely static.

重演 chóngyǎn a repeat performance / repeat occurrence 

重：to repeat / repetition / again / re-: from phono-semantic compound: semantic 人 (side view of a standing man, highlighting the arms and legs, “man”, rén) + phonetic 東 (”bag”，dōng). Also ideogrammic compound – a man carrying a bag. Another pronunciation: zhòng - heavy.

演： to practice / to perform / to play / to act: phono-semantic compound: semantic 氵“water”  + phonetic 寅 (yín).

历史的悲剧总是会重演。 The tragedy of history will always repeat itself.

B-but… English isn’t ideogrammic. It’s a syllabaric phonetic language, you learn to read it alphabet-phoneme because hats what it is. Oh. Oh no.

This explains so much about why 20 somethings are just unable to read to any level of complexity beyond a tweet. The miserable failure of US pedagogy
