And a proposed format change
Three more tabs from my Chrome tab saves. I find my own interests very interesting - imagine that! Most tab review/dumps result in further research on the topic. Art and science are the general themes. Not sure who else would be interested in my tabs saves, but I'm having a blast.
- web.csulb.edu/~rodrigue/geog140/lectures/earthsunbydate.html - I never fully read these geography lecture notes on The Earth in Space until today. The author is Dr. Christine M. Rodrigue of CSU Long Beach, a professor of geography and an artist. Sections 12-13 very interesting to me: declination of the sun, fast-slow, all of that. Very cool. All earthlings should understand this.
- google.com/search?q=earth%27s+precession - Clearly a google search I did not want to forget: "earth's precession". Now I know a more accurate search would have been "axial precession". My brain really wants to know this kind of stuff.
- artofmanliness.com/articles/how-to-whistle-with-your-fingers - I can't whistle through my fingers, and my plan was to learn during the stay-at-home days of the pandemic. Sadly, I did not, but I still want to learn as it would be very useful.
In addition to a small number of tab dumps in a post, I'm going to start adding a short essay. It could be an opinion piece, something I've learned recently or find fascinating, or just whatever. We're talking very short. Maybe even a short poem or single picture. Anyway, no more ending with an ingenuous faux question to the reader, or whatever that rhetorical-ish thing is that some bloggers do. I did it last time, mostly in mockery, but I think it is very silly. If a reader sees a comment box and has one, they know what to do! If reading something I've written sparks an idea or call to action, I would rather they go and do it than sit around writing a bleeping comment. Future "essays" to go at the top, before tab dumps.
