⤷ What is Simulation Theory and Why Does it Matter? ●

And since this was the rabbit hole I was digging my way through this weekend, I may as well jumpstart everyone else’s rabbit hole digging. Maybe I’m late to the party. This kind of stuff is interesting, scary, and troublesome all at the same time. There has to be a way the entire puzzle fits together.

⤷ Why Elon Musk Believes We’re Living in a Computer Simulation ●

Thanks to Drew Coffman, I find myself knee deep in reading about Simulation Theory, the Singularity, and more. Crazy things to think about, especially in relation to faith.

⤷ 68 Bits of Unsolicited Advice ●

I agree with 95% of these. Disagree with “credit” and “experience” (read the list, you’ll know immediately which ones I’m referring to). This is the kind of list you print and put on your desk or on your wall to peruse every single day.

⤷ The 10th Anniversary of the iPad - A Perspective from the Windows Team ●

I love the summary blurb for this one: “While the press and friends of Apple gathered for the launch event, the Windows team fresh off Windows 7 launch watched from afar. An annotated twitter thread.”

⤷ Lucas Foglia’s Human Nature Photo Set ●

There are at least a couple NSFW photos here, so be warned. But each of these photos are sure to make your head churn a little.

⤷ Adrienne Pitts ●

There’s some stunning work on Adrienne’s website/portfolio. I’ve linked to the travel picks because they are my favourite, but it’s clear Adrienne’s skill set transcends all photographic genres.
