Distinct, Not Distant
“The unexamined life is not worth living.” — Socrates I once recorded myself talking to no one at 11 PM, transcribed the whole thing the next morning, and read it back like I was reviewing research notes. Findings: inconclusive. The subject remains uncooperative. This is, apparently, what I do for fun. I am a neuroscientist by training and a thinker by constitution, which means I have two different ways of saying the same thing: something is here, and I need to understand it.
