Endings Morph Into Beginnings

It's a strange time in my life.


I'm going to be moving back to CA to be around family. I think I'll feel relieved in the end.


Fortunately I still have work and Galapagos is getting some momentum, so that's encouraging. I'll have more time to focus on Galapagos and other ventures.


I blog like this mostly for myself, truly. I don't really promote this blog at all, except when I want certain content not scraped by LI spiders and such. 


These posts help me reason about certain subjects out loud. I don't track metrics, etc. So when I do share on LI I know the people that comment actually read the content and not just the post text. 


It's a Friday  It'll take me a week to get it altogether, close the door on WA for a while, and reopen the one that's in CA.  


Life has an odd way of repeating itself. Or maybe it's just me and my patterns. Maybe a bit of both.  I honestly don't know. But I am looking forward to being around some family again. I'm at a stage in life where doors are closing slowly, and not to reopened because the doors just faded through time.


We all live in this reality where time isn't what you make of it per se, but how to use it without being paranoid and/or regretful how it has been used thus far. The perception of time changes as we go through it. Some memories laid down decades ago are remembered as if the events happened yesterday. Other memories seem like they were ages ago when only a week has passed...


Time and memory...


What a combination.

The Seven Tidal Waves of Augustine

Image
E very so often, I get in these contemplative moods, where I attempt to merge the writing styles of Eco, Tom Robbins, and Richard Feynman into a conceptual goo to coat the veneer of consciousness itself, in an attempt to expand it. But, I surmise for some, this is just word salad left out to rot in the UV rays emanating from the solar disc that helps life perpetuate itself. It’s not just the light that is cast upon us something resembling wisdom, but the shadows that get cast upon the heart. Maybe this is brooding... S t. Augustine is a particular “hero” of mine. I’m not keen on hero worship, but hero respect, for one of the greatest evils is the tyranny of should, a.k.a., fanaticism. But, I do have a relic of him given to me by my mother. I bring up Augustine because here was a man – at least until his conversion to the faith after reading the biography of St. Anthony of the Desert – who was a chronic narcissist. In his teenage years, he is what we would call today a sexual addic

Welcome.

This is a blog that I hope does not become an orphan. The main purpose of the blog is to opine on topics that are intimately related to one another: Economics - improving well-being Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) Mental Health Other Themes and Topics: Mathematics Fun Art From time to time I plan on sharing other articles and blogs I have come across. In the meantime, bookmark it for future reference. Comments are welcome of course. I will be reviewing comments to make sure they make some sense and stay on topic. Sometimes the mind does wander -- so, if you find yourself doing this, that's ok. Just find a way back to the main theme or topic.

A Morpho-Recursive Function for Pi

Image
I'm working on building a little video (still!) to explain how I came up with a method that borrows a bit from recursive function theory to build a method for generating pi by iteratively building a recursive method, which morphs at first, and then eventually stabilizes to generate an n sided polygon. As each iteration goes forth, n increases, doubling the number of sides of an n- sided polygon, until the sides get so small that it "smooths" out the perception of a circle - which is interesting because after the 5 th iteration, the function "stabilizes", and smooths out, making the incremental change between values of pi get smaller, but pi itself gets more precise to the "true" value of pi itself. The problem with this method computationally is that computers start "blowing up" because the sides approach a value of 0, but cannot actually get there. But, from a computer's point of view, these sides might as well be zero. The sides
