Somosphere 

Share definition Flag
The somosphere is the sum of all man-made networks, systems, software and hardware required to support virtual identities used in social media and gaming. It combines the words 'somos' (Spanish meaning 'we are') and 'sphere' and describes a completely artificial zone that engulfs much of the Earth. Drawing on a comparison to the biosphere, the somosphere can be seen to have evolved from the need for humans to communicate, moving from a purely verbal form of language to one that could be written, distributed through invention of the printing press, telegraph, radio and TV, and the Internet, to its current state as a global electronic ecosystem that supports virtual life. Unlike the biosphere, the somosphere is not a self-regulating ecosystem, although this aspect is changing with major contributors such as network operators, Internet Service Providers and social media giant Facebook showing reluctance to moderate content or comply with government interference (e.g. to prevent illegal downloading of copyright material). To this end the somosphere has emerged to be representative of the true will of the people, who are (for the most part) unrestricted by physical form, age, gender, social standing, nationality, geographical and geopolitical location, relative and religious influences and taboo. To borrow a quote from Descartes, 'We connect, therefore we are'.
Recent opinion polls have failed to appreciate factors within the somosphere, which could account for their poor performance in predicting the outcome of the Brexit and US Presidential Elections. Such factors include the reliability of statistics based on unqualified accounts; deliberate false accounting; trending within anonymous groups; and media interference. Clearly big-data generated by activity within the somosphere alone is not reliable and, as with grossly overestimated predictions from mixed meteorological data over the effect of global warming, pollsters must rethink the models used when assessing the habits of real people in line with online advertising.

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
