5  ((米))《印》斜線/斜槓,  slashスラッシュ（/）(virgule).

愈來愈多年青人為了尋找自己的興趣和目標，希望在工作上享有一定程度的自主及彈性，而投身近年興起「斜槓族」（Slashie）行列。


多重職業[1]，亦稱斜槓族[2][3][4]、斜棟族、斜槓青年[5]、Slash族、彈性就業人士[6]，該概念始自美國紐約女專欄作家及諮詢師馬奇·艾波赫（英語：Marci Alboher）[4]的暢銷書《不能只打一份工︰多重壓力下的職場求生術》[6]，是一種工作態度，具體意指年輕人不再滿足於專一職業的工作模式，而選擇有多重職業及身份的生活[6]。當社會上一個人的事業（英語：career）可從其工作上的活動辨認其僱傭或專業，斜槓族取的是一種多重事業的路向。一種興起於20世紀末期至21世紀初期的趨勢。這些具有多重事業的人可能同時擔任兩份或以上的專業工作，又或在某一行業得到相當成就時轉往另一行業發展。

Sandra Kerka（2003）說：「自1970年代末以來美國的研究表明，經濟活躍人口中有10%到30%的人在五年內至少有過一次職業變化。」在德國，91名技術工人中，在完成學業後的前8年中，三分之一的職業發展在其他職業中至少被僱用過一次。[7] 斜槓族亦會考慮一邊創業或加盟連鎖[8]一邊打工，從而達到多源收入的效果，他們比較重視自己的時間，希望自己時間自己掌握。

рашизм, Ukrainians identify an enemy: ‘ruscism.’

 

рашизм,

racism,

As I read about Irpin, about Bucha, about Trostyanets, of the bodies crushed by tanks, of the bicyclists shot on the street, of the desecrated corpses, there it was, “рашизм,” again and again, in comments sections, in social media, even in the official pronouncements of the Ukrainian state. 

The War in Ukraine Has Unleashed a New Word

In a creative play on three different languages, Ukrainians identify an enemy: ‘ruscism.’

NFTs, short for nonfungible tokens, 非同質化代幣（英語：non-fungible token）非代替性代幣






NFTs, short for nonfungible tokens, are digital contracts that allow people to prove they own specific online assets, like official copies of a given artwork, and are usually bought and sold with cryptocurrencies, especially Ethereum. ... In the 110 profitable cases, sales from those NFTs made nearly $8.9 million.7 hours ago








On October 25th you can bid to buy the non-fungible token of our Alice in Wonderland cover on decentralised finance. The money raised will go to The Economist Educational Foundation

非代替性トークン（ひだいたいせいトークン）、NFT（英: non-fungible token、

A non-fungible token (NFT) is a unique and non-interchangeable unit of data stored on a digital ledger (blockchain).[1] NFTs can be used to represent easily-reproducible items such as photos, videos, audio, and other types of digital files as unique items (analogous to a certificate of authenticity), and use blockchain technology to establish a verified and public proof of ownership. Copies of the original file are not restricted to the owner of the NFT, and can be copied and shared like any file. The lack of interchangeability (fungibility) distinguishes NFTs from blockchain cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin.

The first NFT project was launched in 2015 on the Ethereum blockchain, and interest grew with the rise of interest in crypto currencies. According to NonFungible.com, sales exceeded $2 billion in the first quarter of 2021, more than 20 times the volume of the previous quarter.[2] NFTs have drawn criticism with respect to the energy cost and carbon footprint associated with validating blockchain transactions.

Description

非同質化代幣（英語：non-fungible token）是一種被稱為區塊鏈數位帳本上的數據單位，每個代幣可以代表一個獨特的數碼資料。由於其不能互換，非同質化代幣可以代表數位文件，如畫作、聲音、影片、遊戲中的項目或其他形式的創意作品。雖然文件（作品）本身是可以無限複製的，但代表它們的代幣在其底層區塊鏈上被追蹤，並為買家提供所有權證明。 [1] [2]諸如以太幣、比特幣等加密貨幣都有自己的代幣標準以定義對NFT的使用。

描述[編輯]

非同質化代幣一種存儲在區塊鏈（數位帳本）上的數據單位，它可以代表藝術品等獨一無二的數位物品。[1]其是一種加密代幣，但與比特幣等加密貨幣不同，其不可互換。[3][4] 一個非同質化代幣是通過上傳一個文件，如藝術品，到非同質化代幣拍賣市場[5]。這將創建一個記錄在數位帳本上的文件副本作為非同質化代幣，它可以用加密貨幣購買和轉售。雖然藝術家可以出售代表作品的非同質化代幣，但藝術家仍然可以保留作品的版權[6]，並創造更多的同一作品的非同質化代幣。非同質化代幣的買家並不能獲得對作品的獨家訪問權，[6]買家也不能獲得對原始數位文件的獨佔。將某一作品作為非同質化代幣上傳的人不必證明他們是原創藝術家[7]，在許多案例中，在未經創作者許可的情況下，藝術品被用於非同質化代幣。[8][9]
