"Evolutionary neurobiology. Joseph Ledoux is the student of Michael Gazzaniga who was the student of Roger Sperry and worked on the famous split-brain experiments. I read about these in Koch’s book earlier this year and thought it would be cool to read a book from the academic lineage of such revolutionary work into consciousness. So far it has inspired me to learn more about cellular biochemistry, please give recs!" — Oct 02, 2020 08:52PM

"Only 2 chapters in so far. He does a good job of explaining computer architecture concepts with clear examples and analogies to a "file clerk" model which allow the reader to get an intuitive understanding of the CPU's tasks and organization." — Jun 16, 2020 09:17AM

“A map of the world that does not include Utopia is not worth even glancing at, for it leaves out the one country at which Humanity is always landing. And when Humanity lands there, it looks out, and, seeing a better country, sets sail. Progress is the realisation of Utopias.”

“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again.”

“Let us do something, while we have the chance! It is not every day that we are needed. Not indeed that we personally are needed. Others would meet the case equally well, if not better. To all mankind they were addressed, those cries for help still ringing in our ears! But at this place, at this moment of time, all mankind is us, whether we like it or not. Let us make the most of it, before it is too late! Let us represent worthily for one the foul brood to which a cruel fate consigned us! What do you say? It is true that when with folded arms we weigh the pros and cons we are no less a credit to our species. The tiger bounds to the help of his congeners without the least reflexion, or else he slinks away into the depths of the thickets. But that is not the question. What are we doing here, that is the question. And we are blessed in this, that we happen to know the answer. Yes, in the immense confusion one thing alone is clear. We are waiting for Godot to come -- ”
