I am rethinking the Middle Ages. It's a time when Aristotle & other works were rediscovered. Did you know the Muslims were the ones who preserved and added to Greek math and science lost to Christian zealots who burned people and books. What type of society do we want? That is the first question.

@mwhardin.bsky.social I miss your Awards show commentary 🤣🤣🤣

Retooling this last year. Finished courses in Mechatronics and Designing Interactive Devices. It has helped me so much to be flexible and learn new things like coding in different languages. I am looking forward to retooling my applied math skills this year!

There are so many ways to teach electronics, math, interactive design. Very fun "playing" with color and boxes.

I finally saw one of my favorite Georgia O'Keefe paintings in person. She lived through so much and just kept doing her thing. Great lesson.

Whew, there are so many things available to us now that can make a difference in creative ideas and practical innovation. It's time to do those things and not others.

I was very dismayed to see that Progresso and Campbell's changed their soup ingredients to include more gum and flavor enhancers. There are medical warnings for the use of disodium guanylate if you have kidney stones and other kidney problems. Why are these in our food?

From my dentist. So go back to paying with a check or cash..."Due to the rising costs in credit card processing, we have decided, in lieu of a fee increase, we will be charging a 3.95% fee for credit card purchases. To avoid paying a fee, you may pay by check, cash or ACH."

I was actually shocked at how well written this is. search.app?link=https%3...

Very interesting lecture at the Salem Antheneum. Beautiful building. The author Sarah Zalkind read from her book The Waltham Murders. It really brought tonight police misconduct in MA. But the connection to the Boston bombing is a bit horrifying.
