Extremely good paragraph from an article exploring the concept of sentience in invertebrates

Head-Up Displays (HUD) in aircrafts

A HUD is a transparent screen that displays flight information in the pilot's line of sight, allowing them to maintain focus on the outside environment. This technology enhances safety and situational awareness by reducing the need for pilots to look away from their forward view to check instrument readings.

biologists will be like this is a very simplified diagram of a mammalian cell

chemists will be like this is a molecule

I support piracy obviously but I double support academic piracy because there’s not even any argument to be made about taking away royalty money from academics, you don’t get paid for publications, you’re literally just submitting your work to a private publishing house that makes millions of dollars off of it

i could never associate myself with any other form of academic aesthetics than chaotic academia. this is literally the only 'aesthetic' i can abide by, because why are there so many books scattered on my bed, i sleep alone on a whole queen size bed but cannot fit in because after a whole day of studying,books.are.everywhere.

and for some odd reason i refuse to arrange them, it somehow makes it harder for me to find them so i just don't, i have the tendency to make the most important notes on scraps of paper??? though i end up collecting all of them and now i have a stash of notes only i can understand because they are so damn context less.

i always wanted to associate myself to dark academia, because omg i wanna be mysterious so bad, but omfg when i start speaking :D there's literally no stopping me.

my hands, ALWAYS STAINED WITH INK, like i'm EMBARASSED so so embarassed, that i'm a legal adult with pen stains on my clothes, blankets, pillow covers, body and what not.

it is not as pretty or put together as it seems when you study, but it's fun, there's fun in learning i literally just had a mental breakdown over physics but it's a privilege, a privilege that the only thing i'm stressing over is acads, we should probably enjoy the process of learning more than raving over the outcomes, hopefully that makes the process more enjoyable and well, easier to an extent.

anyway, it's 5:20 PM and am off for a nap, b-bye :3

look, I know I've talked about this essay (?) before but like,

If you ever needed a good demonstration of the quote "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic", have I got an exercise for you.

Somebody made a small article explaining the basics of atomic theory but it's written in Anglish. Anglish is basically a made-up version of English where they remove any elements (words, prefixes, etc) that were originally borrowed from romance languages like french and latin, as well as greek and other foreign loanwords, keeping only those of germanic origin.

What happens is an english which is for the most part intelligible, but since a lot everyday english, and especially the scientific vocabulary, has has heavy latin and greek influence, they have to make up new words from the existing germanic-english vocabulary. For me it kind of reads super viking-ey.

Anyway when you read this article on atomic theory, in Anglish called Uncleftish Beholding, you get this text which kind of reads like a fantasy novel. Like in my mind it feels like it recontextualizes advanced scientific concepts to explain it to a viking audience from ancient times.

Even though you're familiar with the scientific ideas, because it bypasses the normal language we use for these concepts, you get a chance to examine these ideas as if you were a visitor from another civilization - and guess what, it does feel like it's about magic. It has a mythical quality to it, like it feels like a book about magic written during viking times. For me this has the same vibe as reading deep magic lore from a Robert Jordan book.
