I was hoping I could write this post during the quiet early morning where I could be at peace and really think. But life has been too busy recently and I wanted to get this written. I saw this book mentioned somewhere and is one of the few I’ve immediately ordered based on a review.…… Continue reading Reality Is Not What It Seems – The Journey To Quantum Gravity – Carlo Rovelli
Encryption, Synology and External Disks
I’ve spent the last few days encrypting everything. We’ve had a lot of home break-ins recently in our little seaside hamlet and it made me realize how vulnerable all our data was to thieves. With all the security, firewalls, passcodes and so on I never really thought much about having our physical devices stolen out…… Continue reading Encryption, Synology and External Disks
Journal Entry – 2.18.2017
It is 4:38 AM on Saturday morning. It is completely dark outside with the only a one inch light out on the ocean as the cruise ship heading for San Francisco passed by. We’re in the middle of a storm and I can hear the wind rushing through the trees. I made it to the…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 2.18.2017
Journal Entry – 2.12.2017
It is 8:51 AM on Saturday February 12th, 2017. I’m sitting on the couch, the boys are playing the Goat Simulator and the wife is upstairs doing wife things.

This time it was my internet bookmarks; not the browser bookmarks as I had done that previously but more specifically the once I had on del.icio.us. I noticed in December that his site was often down and remains so! This…… Continue reading del.icio.us bookmarks and internet stuff
Journal Entry – Karate and Wrestling
It is 5:51 AM and I’m up later than usual. Yesterday I had two karate sessions making four for the past two days and I’m battered and bruised. Surprisingly, it isn’t as bad as I had thought. When I first began I was afraid of getting punched, kicked and fighting in class. That fear has…… Continue reading Journal Entry – Karate and Wrestling
Journal Entry 2.4.2017
It is 3:37 AM. My son and I did the fighting class in addition to regular karate class yesterday. The different between us is that when he exercises a lot he will sleep soundly and deeply until morning; I however will not and wake up after only five or so hours of sleep and so…… Continue reading Journal Entry 2.4.2017
Journal Entry – 2.2.2017
The world is different now due to President Trump. I miss the certainty and comfort of the way things were previously. Now I wake up and am anxious to see what the news will say. At the moment the US is upsetting its allies and as for the enemies, I’m sure we’ll soon be at…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 2.2.2017
