It is really hard not to get discouraged every. damn. day. I am trying to stay amped up and defiant. But it isn't easy.

We need to be more aggressively driving home the point that AI reliance is just a new form of illiteracy.

What trump and the GOP are doing to science is more dangerous than many realize. By eliminating scientists who resist the agenda, they seek to take the light and conscience out of our world, reducing it to mindless tech that serves their warmongering bloodlust.

There is a lot I really like about Austin. But if I am being honest, there's no way I can remain in Texas forever.

Oh no. Feel an illness coming on. No no no no. Please not sick on fitness start day.

Damn. If I do this big orbital dynamics map thing, the game is going to need to be 3D. Okay. I can prototype this. This is low scope.

I actually think that a robust infrastructure of cislunar space colonies is more interesting than bases on Mars. Do you realize how many people we can fit in our local orbital neighborhood?

Okay. Looks like I will have no problem optimizing my orbital state vector integration C++ code into Godot. Luckily I implemented three separate Runge Kutta methods and the entire EGM96 gravity model. I designed this fairly well. Easy to add lunar gravity terms too.

It may be some kind of reporting bias, but SpaceX failure rates seem to be increasing as trump damages NASA budgets. I wonder how much NASA has been carrying little elon's little ego.

FINALLY made it back to the coffee shop to start my game again. Yes, it looks sloppy, but after two months with no ceiling, this is major progress. Why is the game design back in space again? I don't know.

Remember that time when I had a real application for using adaptive AI systems to resolve non-gaussian distributions for bayesian estimation, but the tech bro manager passed on it because "LLM make code?" I remember because I quit that dumb job.

I always got the feeling that Elon really does think he's Tony Stark. He never talks like he understands that the Apollo or Space Shuttle programs were huge collaborative efforts. That's why SpaceX is having issues.

I wonder if I think hard enough about it, I could learn to directly visualize four spatial dimensions. What if the only thing stopping us is just not trying?

Just throwing this out: Did anybody else dream of a break-in or burglary during the days around a major solar eclipse (2017, 2024)? Apparently this is a thing and not just me?

Getting this weird feeling that something very consequential is about to happen. Not sure if bad or good, not sure if global or local. Just a feeling that says, "don't start a new thing until this is over."

So apparently, I can understand Spanish pretty well, but I don't know enough vocabulary to speak it without sounding like a moron.

I need to learn a second language. Spanish, French, or Japanese? I know a tiny bit of each.

I really think I should go try to get my PhD. Been thinking about all this stuff I know, and I have like three dissertations worth of experience in astrodynamics rattling around in my big stupid moron head.

Just wondering, is anybody interested in founding a scientific explorers society? Not a joke. Somebody has to do it. Nobody seems to be.

What if Dracula was a Von Neumann probe?

Just a reminder that you don't need a business case to develop space. In fact, everything driven by the profit motive has underdelivered on its potential. We really don't need that energy in space.

Did you ever have a moment when you realized you may not be one person, but a thousand reflections in a shattered mirror?

Idk what I was expecting, but this record is genuinely psychotic. Without the cartoons, I feel like I'm hallucinating.

My face has changed. Ever so slightly. But I can tell. I somehow recognize this face more than before.

That dream the other day stays with me. Something about the idea of mere science instruction being fragile and superficial. But the dream hints at a deeper level of internalizing science. Fire and water together.

I'm getting mad again. The only reason we don't have a thousand people working on the lumar surface right now is that mediocre corpos found that it was more profitable and easier to rent our own music back to us. Lazy incompetence is too well rewarded.
