  • Living

    We live for the validation of our existence.

  • Steaming electrons

    It’s pretty amazing that, given all the advancements in electricity generation, besides solar, they all boil down to turning water into steam and driving an electric motor, essentially, backwards (not in reverse) and applying the right hand rule…

  • Going through the motions

    Do you think about the meaning behind the things you say or do? When you meet your friend and ask them how they are doing, are you really expecting to process their response?
