“The reason many religions have myths about not speaking God’s name, have to do with when you name something you are actually naming what that thing is not. So when you name God, you limit it and point out what it isn’t. That’s not a weakness in you, that’s a weakness in your god.” #writing #tao

Just because you have a vision and want to make it real, first ensure that your reality benefits more than just you.

You have to look at things askance. That provides a new perspective.

Boneless wings come from flightless birds.

Sometimes, you have to forget your problems and concerns and just do something else. #life #success

I saw a good post today. It was in the parking lot of a shopping center.

Recursion: falling down the rabbit-hole.

What do you plan to do on Monday when the world goes dark?

Avoid boring people. The reason they are boring is that they are just like you. #life #success

Overcommittment is breaking promises to yourself as well as others. #life

This evening, I’ll work on the virtual memory for my FORTH implementation. It’s going to be a bit weird since I’m not using true memory or even bytes to store stuff, but it should work. At some point maybe I’ll convert it to being byte-oriented. #forth #programming

I need to edit this afternoon. This book won’t need as many rewrites, unless I find something downstream from where I am. It always surprises me when I read something that I wrote a few years ago and don’t remember writing bits of it. Bits that I like. #writing

Lots done this morning. Time for some foodstuffs.

Live your life. Don’t live someone else’s. #life

Time to switch it up. Conklin Word Gauge (B) with Monteverde Ocean Noir. The pen tracks words written. Sort of. #fountainpen #writing

Greetings. Promise what you can deliver and deliver what you promise. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

“The dead are extremely poor at building things.” #writing

You can’t be productive without producing something. #productivity

Tomorrow, get some crayons and scribble.

Happy Birthday iPad #apple

I’m just having fun with this FORTH project. I’m at the stage where some of the words are actually implemented in itself rather than the underlying Python. I think once I get conditionals working, I can convert some of the existing words to FORTH. #programming #forth

Implemented a few more words. Time for lunch. Then an afternoon of edits. #programming #forth #python

Take a moment. Look around. Notice where you are, what is happening around you, and what you are doing. Be present. #life

Delaware is soggy all week. Despite the dark dreariness, I’m getting stuff done today and beginning to think about lunch at 9AM. The Gathering is hiding somewhere drier, I hope. Spot came by for breakfast.
