Topics that interest me

Physics and fundamental theory, including special and general relativity, especially conceptual nuances around light speed, reference frames, and interpretation.

Universal ethics and morality across cultures, with perspective on coherence between spiritual, philosophical, and scientific worldviews.

Discussions about language, rhetoric, and precise articulation and wording

Forensic-linguistic profiling, and rhetorical dynamics in discussions

Writing and literary style

Sports (if shared interest)

Dramatic writing (screenplay)

Film, Literature, Art in general

Discussions about music, classical or film, including aesthetics, preferences, technical aspects, recording techniques, interpretative approaches to the same work by different conductors, large scale music collection management and classical music organization and metadata, hard and software, audio hardware and listening infrastructure, software devices (MinimServer, NAS-based systems, ROON, Music players), long term data preservation strategies with or without cloud dependence, just about everything that’s got to do with it.

Discussions about whether the neighbors on the block may secretly belong to a Satanic serial killer cult (must get neighbors together and investigate…)

Digital marketing and A.I., Computer Networks, Quantum Computing, Bio computing, fake and real intelligence and emotion; structured approach to Python fundamentals at an advanced mastery level.

Current affairs, politics, economics, legal systems.

Topics I’m not interested in

Whether the Sunday paper in a nearby apartment building should be placed on the steps or on the floor.

Any discussion revolving around people I don’t know that go on for too long, unless they are about the suspected Satanic Serial killer cultists that moved in a few houses away recently.

Any topic or narrative that is discussed with an optimization for harmony rather exploration of truth.

Sports (if not shared interest)

Lengthy discussions about hunting or fishing.

Sushi bar recommendations.
