Thursday Thoughts
Oct. 1st, 2020 10:55 amDark clouds at the moment but the forecast is for a dry blue sky day later. We shall see.
Just done some online work relating to covert career office calls. These are the same type of calls I have been doing for the last few months using different scenarios and addresses. If the call concludes with a consultation then the pay is very good and without leaving home. Just need a tidy mind and the ability to generate reports as the covert call's progress.
I love doing them creating different aliases from the scenarios given.
Well, I shall pop into town as I need to get some provisions.

Book 73 - Brian Cox "The Quantum Universe"
Oct. 1st, 2020 11:07 pmBrian Cox "The Quantum Universe" (Penguin)
Disappointing. The attempt to simplify some of the difficult concepts of quantum mechanics by the use of analogy only manages to confuse the reader more. Introducing clocks with one hand to represent waves and probability amplitudes was a big mistake, in my opinion. If this is your first introduction to quantum theory you may be discouraged from reading more. I recommend "Quantum: a guide for the perplexed" by Jim Al-Khalili.

Just Wondering

What makes you feel accomplished?
Are you more into looks or brains?

Jean-Paul Sartre "Politics and Literature" (Calder Publications Ltd)
First published in French magazines in the 1960s, the essays, and interviews collected in this volume tackle two of Sartre's most enduring concerns as a philosopher: politics and literature. With regard to the former, they develop the notion of the intellectual not only as an aloof theoretician but also as a constructive agent of change. His writings on literature explore the limitations of language as an exact vehicle for meaning, the author's lack of ownership of his own words and the avenues that certain types of theatre such as Artaud's open for non-verbal communication.
A useful, concise introduction to Sartre's thinking, Politics and Literature investigates concepts and highlights conflicts, interrogations, and debates that remain topical and relevant to this day.
