  1. I am building  a large styrofoam background for my 75 gallon aquarium to allow me to use plants as filters. Can I post the picture on here and if so where? 

  2. My thought today:

    The point at which some people stop paying attention to what someone has said is sometimes more revealing than their answer.

    Thus, what they don't mention can be more relevant than what they do.

  3. "We have two lives, the second begins when we realize we only have one."

      What happens when we realize that we actually have two? Does the third begin?

      Errr no such luck...

      Good thought

      You got me mouth watering until you mentioned the tadpoles. 🙀 Hello. We've never met before.

  5. 15 minutes into this I'd thought I'd share it here in with my friends:

  7. Oh how I wish to defeat this demon of laziness. The bias of the mind which prevents me from seeing the beauty of the world. That inner that says, "you do not need to learn, for it is the games of those more keen to it than you. Sleep for all of eternity. rest now child for it is meant only for those chosen to defy god. To pluck from his apple of reason. You wish not to defy the infinitely all knowable do you." Oh but I do, I wish to grasp the apple and bite at its core. To give up my mere existence to view the world as not just sheets of paper but as intricate systems, oozing with the beyond infinitely unknowable. I will not listen to you demon or angel or whatever creature you may claim to be from some delusion of myself and of man. For I know that in any sense I will die. And even if I die, I would prefer to look onto the world laying on my back resting upon the shoulders of giants than sit atop a tower of my own mere delusion.

  11. Here is a quote I came up with the other day.

    " The interface from the universe to the brain is a continuous one, the interface from the brain to the universe is a discrete one."

    Tell me what you all think about this quote.

    Thank you

      Consider the silliest ideas, but be always ready to throw them in the rubbish bin. That's my motto.

      Sorry about that. Aleph 0 is the cardinality (number of elements) of the natural numbers; aleph 1 is the cardinality of the continuum. The question as it stands today of whether there is an intermediate cardinality between them is unanswerable.

      Aleph 0 and aleph 1 are infinite, but cardinalizable nonetheless.

      I'm not sure what you mean. I'm sure though I'm not sure what you mean. But,

      If I had to bet anything on those matters I'd probably put my money and mouth on such interface having to do with logically unreachable propositions, like cardinals that are intermediate between aleph 0 (the counting numbers) and aleph 1 (the continuum.)

      The interface could be fractal. Why not?
