This is the third, and final for the moment, post looking at the Apex/Flexuous/Ystwyth curve(s) and it is as much of a connection post as an extension. So it links with weak signal detection and also human perception and knowledge. The latter I will return to tomorrow when I update the uncertainty matrix which goes […]
When I was at school, way back in the days of the white-hot heat of technological optimism, the local printers made a gift to the school of their old platen press and a case of font trays. There were drawers for each font and point size all with a similar layout – a pattern that […]
If I am honest about things I am probably guilty of Pelagianism in some form. For those not on top of their heresies, Pelagius was a British monk who lived over the cusp of the fourth and fifth centuries and taught that original sin did not taint human nature and divine grace was not necessary […]
One of my best memories from the year I turned my back on Diabetes is the walk I did after a fresh snowfall in the sunshine on the Camarthen Fan as the year was coming to its end. The photographs used here come from that walk in which I linked on the tops finally returning […]
One of the most painful ever scenes for anyone of a progressive mindset is the People’s front of Judea from Monty Pythons Life of Brian which came out in 1979. I think it is my favorite of the Monty Python films. Aside from the People’s Front, I love the final scene Always Look on the […]

Two things have struck many among us, and have repeatedly been brought up in discussions I have been a part of. The first main theme has been “nature returning”: clearer skies, cleaner waters (or in […]
Three weeks ago, my uncle died from COVID-19. He was a second uncle and I hadn’t seen him in a few years. No one except his father and siblings could go to the funeral. There was no body, no family dinner, no regular memorial services at 3 days and then again at 9 to remind […]
I love this cartoon by Shannon Wheeler, that was posted by the New Yorker. When we watch apocalyptic movies, what we are now going through is usually the time lapse montage of people watching the news for updates, mothers holding their children close, and people huddled together one last time before the asteroid hits. This, […]
These have been trying times. Yesterday, I watched our National Development Minister tear up at a national address as he thanked frontline workers who are doing their part against COVID-19. Singapore released its second stimulus package yesterday, drawing a landmark $48bn from its reserves. The package is set to last for 9 months, and we […]
