I don’t know whether I am taking the best angle about this topic.
Anyway, here goes.

THE APERIODICALS
Local (personal, potentially shallow, and subject to change) outlooks on science, technology, growth, and occasionally culture and history. The goal is to write something every week, but whether it can make its way to FWPhys is random. Hence the series title.
Recite π as a binary decimal, if you wish.
This page is updated annually, subject to my current time zone.
(more…)I am still attempting to fit every academic desire into the schedule for next semester — last one at Berkeley, second last one as an undergraduate student: Quantum, Introductory Cosmology, GR, advanced mechanics, Stats mech, topology, complex analysis, cellular biology, music theory, existentialism, and perhaps a language, documentary filmmaking and theatre (thanks).
Not that I intend to celebrate the passage of time too ‘often’, as I do to myself when alone, but happy Anniversary to ftdsci. It’s been good staying here.

(more…)Well, to say the least, to fill a chemistry presentation with every midnight-made segments of animation but not my growing reservoir of chemical data — an action discrediting my usual style — defines the problem with myself throughout the past few months.
