* 长太息以掩涕兮，哀民生之多艰。 余虽好修姱以鞿羁兮，謇朝谇而夕替。 既替余以蕙纕兮，又申之㠯揽茝。 亦余心之所善兮，虽九死其犹未悔。
** Long did I sigh and wipe away my tears, To see my people bowed by griefs and fears. Though I my gifts enhanced and curbed my pride, At morn they'd mock me, would at eve deride; First cursed that I angelica should wear, Then cursed me for my melilotus fair. But since my heart did love such purity, I'd not regret a thousand deaths to die.
*** Line 40
* 路曼曼其修远兮，吾将上下而求索。

# Overaccumulation

Overaccumulation is one of the potential causes of the crisis of capital accumulation.

## Quotes

* The problem of policies aimed to return the economy to what it was before the virus hit is this: Global capitalism, by 2019, was itself a major cause of the collapse in 2020. Capitalism's scars from the crashes of 2000 and 2008-2009 had not healed. Years of low interest rates had enabled corporations and governments to "solve" all their problems by borrowing limitlessly at almost zero interest rate cost. All the new money pumped into economies by central banks had indeed caused the feared inflation, but chiefly in stock markets whose prices consequently spiraled dangerously far away from underlying economic values and realities. Inequalities of income and wealth reached historic highs. ​In short, capitalism had built up vulnerabilities to another crash that any number of possible triggers could unleash. The trigger this time was not the dot.com meltdown of 2000 or the sub-prime meltdown of 2008/9; it was a virus. And of course, mainstream ideology requires focusing on the trigger, not the vulnerability. Thus mainstream policies aim to reestablish pre-virus capitalism. Even if they succeed, that will return us to a capitalist system whose accumulated vulnerabilities will soon again collapse from yet another trigger.

# Outsourcing

In business, outsourcing involves the contracting out of a business process to another party (compare business process outsourcing). The concept "outsourcing" came from American Glossary 'outside resourcing' and it dates back to at least 1981. Outsourcing sometimes involves transferring employees and assets from one firm to another, but not always

** About the outsourcing of jobs by Irish Ferries in November 2005.
* International trade in goods and services has expanded steadily over the past six decades thanks to declines in shipping and communication costs, globally negotiated reductions in government trade barriers, the widespread outsourcing of production activities, and a greater awareness of foreign cultures and products. New and better communications technologies, notably the Internet, have revolutionized the way people in all countries obtain and exchange information.
** Paul R. Krugman, Maurice Obstfeld, and Marc J. Melitz, International Economics: Theory & Policy, 9th edition (2012)
* To date, most research on information technology (IT) outsourcing concludes that firms decide to outsource IT services because they believe that outside vendors possess production cost advantages. Yet it is not clear whether vendors can provide production

* It is also worth noting that it is extremely difficult to be a great buyer of complementary competencies if you do not have any knowledge about the stuff you are acquiring. Friedrich Nietzsche pointed out that a man has no ears for that to which experience has given him no access. We need knowledge to be able to outsource knowledge.

## Hope across the river:
### Incipit:

The Madonna of the Sun In 1912 Bologna did not exceed one hundred and fifty thousand souls and was still almost entirely enclosed within the pentagon of the ancient walls. Cars, even after the famous circuit that had given Nàzzaro international fame, were rather scarce. Electrically powered trams had recently replaced animal-powered ones. The gentlemen rode in a two-horse "landau"; the rich landowners sported "tilburys" with rubber wheels; in winter they wore heavy brick-coloured Casentino coats, with picturesque blond fox or otter collars; but at the time of the afternoon walk they appeared along the promenade, between via Indipendenza, via Rizzoli and the Pavaglione loggias, in "half walnut", ankle-length fur, lined with "rat-musquè" and beaver collar. They looked as if they had just returned from a funeral or were about to go to an official reception.

### Quotes:

* We used to say the "fat Bologna" wanting to allude more than to the weight of the inhabitants, to their carnality, their love for good food and the healthy physiological consequences of this love. The "fat Bologna" was anything but the maze-like conventual world that Ugo Foscolo had perhaps seen in a moment of bad mood. (p. 7)
* Bologna was beautiful, lovable, worthy of being enjoyed with soul and flesh. Behind the bright windows of the Zanichelli bookshop the eternally angry spirit of Carducci still hovered. (p. 10)
* The great dates in Bologna were the «premieres» of the opera season at the Teatro Comunale, in autumn (the Bolognese public boasted, rightly, Wagnerian after a famous premiere in Lohengrin directed by Angelo Mariani) and at carnival, the «flower ball». (p. 10)
