[ not sure if this has been asked before, but please send me links ]

oh hey i learned something new today! Our intestines (not just the bone marrow) can produce blood cells! Thanks to #Science for this amazing discovery! http://www.thetelegraff.com/source-blood-cells/

I wanna explore the intersection between 'Philosophical Fiction' and #SciFi by reading the most awesome books that belong to both genres. Fediverse, your suggestions are welcome!

The Simulation Hypothesis: Is Reality All Just A Computer Simulation?"

As technology improves, the possibility that our world may be a simulated one is becoming more and more probable. But can we ever prove that we live in a simulation of a reality?"

Just wanted to say that i'm appreciating the fediverse more and more each day. When i think of the federated model or instances, i see images of neurons, nodes, rhizome, networks.Decentralized yet connected. Amazing.

Q: Which tool for #nodejs is ignored way too often by developers?

Lately been studying the history behind things about #Mechs & #Mecha . This article mentions several mecha that I've not seen before. Good list for mech toy collectors/hobbyists looking to expand their collection.

Bringing balance to the universe: New theory could explain missing 95 percent of the cosmos

Scientists at the University of Oxford may have solved one of the biggest questions in modern physics, with a new paper unifying #darkmatter and #darkenergy into a single phenomenon: a fluid which possesses 'negative mass." If you were to push a negative mass, it would accelerate towards you. This astonishing new theory may also prove right a prediction that Einstein made 100 years ago.

Was finally able to play #titanfall2 once again after a long time, then I encounter this vicious Ronin. Tone needs to back up, deploy electric smoke, then rocket salvo to counter. https://1drv.ms/v/s!AnYptvgZthryhEkqcWkB1tDOYrqz

These many interests are fueled by the fact that we are indeed living in the 'Second Industrial Revolution'. The world is inviting us to create, to invent, to innovate. And the tools are available for us to do so.

I'm interested in so many things, that I am pulled apart in many directions because of my limited time. I need "Interest Management" more than 'attention management' or 'time management' :)
