The Fine Print:

 Since the product is not set to hit the market immediately, ASUS decided to stay quiet about its price and availability timeframe, though expect it to be around $1500-$2000.

In My Own Write of Passage...



In My Own Write of passage


by E. M. Lopez



No questions about the latest Star Wars please, I haven't seen it yet. And sorry Steve, things just got in the way this Christmas, to our yearly sojourn to each Star Wars installment.  

I've been dutifully avoiding 'All the Reveals' being posted on-line about “What It was All About!” I prefer to make up my own mind about that.

Also a new Wired magazine arrived in the mail yesterday. And I Still Can't Believe  how 'skinny' it's become. The 'Fall-Outs' from this issue was another chance to get 6 or 12 months more for a reduced price and cell-phone battery charger too! Zowie.

My old Wired subscription came as a replacement for a Linux magazine I was getting (the name of which I have forgotten) that went belly up. 

 And those Thick Wired magazines with all the Flashy Tech Centric Ads  just  "Won Me Over...'

Anyway, Back to the Lucas Star Wars story....

Still, it's quite amazing what Lucas did with these “out of this world” plethora of characters and ongoing storyline about the whole Star Wars Ecosystem.

 That's some sustaining story-telling, and It has created its own Exploding Universe.

Thank You, Lucas, thank you.

Lets Talk About Physics Today



From the Site of Physics Today






Article in Physics Today:
MAY 2016 • page 10

-------------------------------------------------


Commentary: The dangerous growth of pseudophysics


  




=============================
One Older Article and One Newer One
=============================






A Snippet from This Article:



Richard Feynman once said that the essence of science is (or should be) “the belief in the ignorance of experts.”1 I think he meant that outsiders may provide an important breakthrough because they are unfettered. The “ignorance” that he refers to, though, must not be complete. It still must allow an appreciation of how science works and the rules that apply, and so it is the ignorance of areas of science other than your own.

Google's Assistant Short Comings



At least it's not Windows....
====================

Damn the Defaults  of   "Older Comes FIRST"

When I'm looking for information and 
asking  google  'a query. '

I'm 99% of the time NOT Looking for the 
Oldest historical Chunk of  information First.

I had to asked for last night's basketballs scores in several different 
ways until I got the  answer I was looking for....

WHY?

The Coding Itch has Struck Again









With addition of  More Memory to my Home Computer ( a new hard drive) the Urge to get back to Coding both Big and Small has Peaked again.









Interesting Things happening in the small space of the  Raspberry PI
