or Why I Haven't Posted in Over Two Months
Sometimes in life we are accumulators; sometimes we are disseminators. My role for the past 60 days seems to have been more of the former and less of the latter.
That said, I have now accrued a critical amount of experience to try to make a go at understanding it.
Mortality engenders fear in those who least understand it. While not truly a corollary of 'ignorance is bliss', there is a component of fear of the unknown that all of us either revel in or recoil from. I have decided that I, like I was above, am more of the former and less of the latter. There was no glorious epiphany. Just some light reading followed by introspection.

or The radiant heat exceeds the source.
Magnets are powerful things. Most of us know that from our elementary school art that hung on a fridge sometime in our childhoods. Likewise the properties of magnets make high speed trains and the study of subatomic particles possible.
It now appears that magnetic energy is also the underpinning of the intense heat of our Sun's corona. My question is: do we owe our existence to repulsive or attractive forces?

or What you don't see doesn't change than a second, doesn't that strike you as odd?
It makes me think that time isn't truly linear and that Feynman was right: Sum over paths allows for even the outliers to have an influence on the outcome.

or what do you
Technology is, well, technical. Not everyone can muster the strength to master the knowledge to truly understand its application and dissemination. But we sure as hell can complain if it doesn't work as we hoped.
If your wireless network is on the fritz, why not jam to some previously downloaded MightyJuice? (remember: eleventy)
