Astrophysics, Philosophy, and much more that’s yet to form to give it a name!
A sky full of stars. A mind full of questions. Both wide awake at night. (The brightest one is Saturn, btw!)

I received this book as a gift when I was 13. Growing up, I didn’t have access to books outside of school, no libraries nearby, not even at school. This book was my window into a world beyond textbooks. It introduced me to new topics, big questions, and most importantly, to…

Parents are some of the best people to talk to. They're full of knowledge and experience, what more could one ask for?
Back-to-back nights of thrilling, intense, heart-throbbing dreams. REM circuits are clearly up to something. Curious what they’ll throw at me tonight.
Find a friend who lives far enough to have a different sky angle, but close enough to share the nighttime. Look up together while on a call. Try spotting constellations, stars, or even satellites if you’re lucky. It builds strong spatial awareness. You start tracking the motion…
That's amazing! I and my friend were hunting it down from 2 different locations last night, but no luck!
Right now: : |
Ah, where do thoughts go when they disappear? Back-tracking now, always. Excavation of the self, archaeology of the mind.
This led me in the right direction, I can sleep peacefully tonight, and move on to the next thing in the morning. I will finally cook something good after '1 week of 1 meal/ day, mostly liquid-based diet, and only-fruits lunch' now.🥢
So, have to verify the results I got from the code by solving things manually and cross-checking the answers, doing that until solutions remain analytical. Interesting.
The most powerful request the mind can make, yet its hunger remains insatiable.

Yes.
Would you eat psilocybin mushrooms for the rest of your life if it made you live longer?
My professor addressed a similar question in one of the Cosmology courses. I will summarize what he said: We know that the universe is expanding. This means the space between galaxies is stretching. But, this expansion does not cause objects bound by strong forces (like…
I was just wondering — could our physical sizes also be expanding due to entropy, but we remain unaware of it because everything is expanding proportionally?
Taking a stroll at 1:30 am in the building revealed the owls on campus: a working staff member, a professor, maintenance people, some raccoons too (outside the building, of course!). Lots of late-night folks everywhere, wow!
I'm mentally chained to this one physical space. I don't feel like working or being anywhere else. Need to change that.
The absence of external stimuli/ alternatives can make an internal state (even an unpleasant one) feel more tolerable, b/c there's less to compare it to or less immediate hope for change. (Was speaking of hunger!) But this is broadly applicable.
Being master of one's moods is a mastery that must be attained, though its initial phase feels like a neutrality.
The universe is where everything came from. It existed before thought, before even the idea of time. It holds every field inside it. It is the origin, and it is the end. We are temporary things trying to understand something that is not only older than us, but that made the…
This is a photographic artifact (not a spider web)! Probably due to diffraction and internal reflections within the lens. It's so cool, never seen something like this before.

This response is beautiful. It’s wild to think that language didn’t just enable us to communicate but let our thoughts evolve faster than biology ever did. It’s as if our thoughts are flames and language, a torch. With each passing the flames burn brighter.
Yes. Because, while we had more or less modern brains, we hadn’t developed the technology of language yet. Understand that original thinking doesn’t exist. Every idea you have is built upon preceding ideas. You can’t spontaneously create a new concept whole-cloth. You can only…
I really love this internet cinema idea. This is way better than AI-generated full-blown movies/content. This just might be the next breakthrough in movies.

A mind that resists boredom will never truly know itself.
