  1. And then I took the Metro and returned to Jor Bagh Metro Station from where I took and auto to the India Habitat Center. Very colorful!

    Again, using the Pocket Dispo.

    There are times you need to experiment!

  2. The street is a hard place. We can yap as much as we wish to, and claim we are a world leader but, we are not.

  3. I went from the garden to Connaught Place in Delhi. One man had exited a masjid where he went to pray. The others focused on their business. Again, using the Pocket Dispo.

  7. 44Net Connect provides a static, globally unique IP address that can serve as an endpoint for IPIP tunnels and other networking experiments. What projects could you build with a static IP address? Link: connect.44net.cloud/ #44net #44netconnect #44yearsof44net #amateurradio #experimentation

  8. The Missing Piece of Education

    Education, in whatever institution you are in, lacks the system that actually contributes to your success. Be it in schools, or universities, you largely have to self-study to ace in life. This defeats the purpose of coming into institutions where you already have great infrastructure but largely under-utilized. Peripheral knowledge is available for free on the internet. One can argue you need peers to push you forward and develop social skills. But you can get that through community clubs as well. Peer network shouldn’t be the only reason to enter universities. What we should be coming to institutions for is to understand the nuances, the tactile knowledge. How often you go to your professors to understand a concept you couldn’t get through the internet? How often our syllabus covers topics not available online? We are killing the natural curiosity of students and making them machines. We no longer pause and observe our surroundings, the world, the people, nature. Life is boring, but we’ve now filled it with constant dopamine. When did you last sat with someone in silence? Yes, that’s a thing, when you come together, don’t talk, don’t use your phones, maybe read a book, and still feel quality time spent together. All of this is not difficult to create. You don’t need policies for this. It’s not alien to our culture. University administrations can make such an environment very much possible. Especially the new and upcoming ones. We need a lot of hands-on experimentation, and I don’t mean this as a career training, but as life skills. Professors shouldn’t be there for just attendance and grades. They are experts in their field, and each student must take leverage and advantage of that specialization.

  10. The issue at heart of many issues including #DigitalGovernance is a mismatch between #experimentation and #accounttability
    Imho the deal should be if you innovate you should reap the rewards but you are also accountable for the consequences of your innovations

  11. On FTL and causality: add new time. Light vortices look a lot like a light cone on a time-space diagram to me.

    Do photons have spin...? Long Covid sucks.

    While we all live in a money-obsessed hellscape, nothing needs "utility" to be worth testing or knowing.

  12. But yeah, I am confused about the polaritons. 
    (Polaritrons? I'm not hearing stuff / processing audio precisely, lately. ) Light has a shape? Or, like, a shape in time? Cuz that -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3 image looks a lot like a light cone on a time-space diagram. To me, at least. The things with the light at diagonal lines in space.

    Wait. Spin? Do photons have spin? I'm gonna get a used copy of my uni textbook off someone and try to remember anything. Yaaay Long Covid! (Twice, Doubled, or Squared! Per your preference.)

  13. On how faster-than-light info would affect (our understanding of) causality: "And then nothing makes sense anymore." Since when has science stopped testing things that seemed "unintuitive" on the first pass? 
    Wouldn't that just sort itself out, and then we'd make new inferences to test? Cuz it sounds like an additional dimension of time would be useful here. Which... is probably a meme. "Just add a new dimension!" Ok yeah, but what if we did tho. (Eddie Woo intensifies.)

  14. ‘The art of logic therefore being (as we have mentioned), too late a precaution,[1] and in no way remedying[7] the matter, has tended more to confirm errors, than to disclose truth. Our only remaining hope and salvation is to begin the whole labor of the mind again; not leaving it to itself, but directing it perpetually from the very first, and attaining our end as it were by mechanical aid.’ Lord Bacon’s MCMII, Novum Organon #Art #Logic #Philosophy #Mechanisation #Experimentation #Alienation #Ai #ApocalypseEmpires #AbnormalEthics #ForItsOwnSake !
