Late Night Thoughts 2: Everything All the Time, Yet but Still Just This
My friend Pieter made an Album called “Everything All the Time,” and for some reason, everytime I put it on, I would think of the title had an imprint of familiarity, a reminder of something else. I figured Pieter must have mentioned it to me before previously. But tonight as I was about to fallContinue reading “Late Night Thoughts 2: Everything All the Time, Yet but Still Just This”
Late Night Thoughts 1: A Nod to Mark
The story of the young backpacker who died in Thailand, had been eating at me for over a month. I couldn’t understand why. I racked my brain over it, knowing I did not know him, even if he went to my school. I was a year too old to have taken him to camp. HeContinue reading “Late Night Thoughts 1: A Nod to Mark”

Wiping out information: from Hackers to Cyber-terrorism, and eventually Cyber Warfare.
Socio-political rants. I was having dinner with my friend Maggie, and she said how she thought there were a lot of weirdos “Over there” as in the Internet. I then replied, “Actually the internet is not, not-real, the people that are strange on the net exist somewhere. They are part of the world here, notContinue reading “Wiping out information: from Hackers to Cyber-terrorism, and eventually Cyber Warfare.”
