TOP 5 THINGS THAT KEEP ME UP AT NIGHT

I'll admit, this isn't an original blog idea. this is actually a plagarised idea from The Odd1sout (link to his video in his name. also 5 YEARS? time flies)

1. my phone! 📳

night times are peaceful, quite and most importantly DARK. so if I want to workout in my room, I can (quietly) 

other people do still want to sleep at night. but I am able quietly play some tunes ♪ before going to sleep myself.

2. if I'm not working out, I'm probably dazzled by the stars or the moon

🌃🌌🤩 I'm a sucker for the shiny things in life.

3. Death & Existentialism. ☠️

for the record, I don't have highschool regrets. I was a cool/nice kid in school, I paid my dues in and out of class and made good friendships.

if anything I get scared "what if I peaked young? my life only just started, surely there has to be more I can do/be a part of?

what if the friendships I made are just work/school friendships, and that everybody will naturally move on from me as I have nothing else to offer? what if I went into a cryosleep for 100 years?" 

4. my upload schedule. 🌐 BECAUSE I have weak self esteem, I desparately seek the approval of others by sharing memes online.

it's not much, but if I can get a laugh it'll make my week...

5. Human Inconsistency. 🧠

people are confusing. I'm no psychologist, I can't understand why people do what they do, but sometimes I find myself being scolded by someone who moments before instructed me to do *that very thing*

and even when I'm not currently in trouble, I see people doing NOT what they're told and NOBODY is policing the area to set things straight. (ironic how people are only scared of being caught/punished)

it's no wonder The Batman is a popular costumed hero.

I wish a was a street vigilante... 

SHOCKING NEWS: I got this app called "refined" on my phone which is like Ted except it has text articles, not videos. AND LOOKY HERE WHAT CAME UP! 😱🤯

Sp00ky Sc4ry Sk3l3t0n5 (electo swing) 🎺

Thunder and Lightning 🌩️

you know I had to do it to 'em! 

now my question for you, the reader in this very short blog is, "why do we say 'thunder and lightning' when light strikes first? because light travels faster than sound, so shouldn't it be said 'lightning and thunder?'" 💡🔊

it's even in alphabetical order, putting lightning first.

which is how lists normally are read/said anyway.

so why do we say it reverso?  🤔

to end this blog piece, why don't I share you a homemade Tesla coil‽ "here goes nothing I guess?"

The Internet is a lot like an airport 👨‍✈️👩‍✈️🧑‍✈️

this is not a new thought I thunk. I've had this thought since Ralph wrecked the internet. 

it all began when I first saw the TCIP model for how devices are connected to the internet and how ALL THAT works.

I tell you, before that day I use to go page after page to understand what the internet is and HOW it works and NOBODY thought about bringing up the TCIP model.

so that day became a core memory for me...

for those of you unfamiliar with the TCIP model.

it a STACK* of 4 layers (although some people use something called the "OS model" which is more detailed, but in a good way.) 

*I say STACK because stacks are a type of data structure that works on a First in, Last out basis.

in the model above (because we're not talking about PHYSICAL objects, so gravity isn't a factor.) the first layer is the Network layer, sometimes called the IP layer. 

and this is where my airport thought comes in! 

these 4 or 7 layers (depending what model you use) 

your device, and all of our devices are all connected to routers, firewalls, gateways, hubs etc and they use information from our device's IP addresses and port numbers to understand what we're doing and to send those packets of information across the internet and back again with new information that we're all looking for. - all within seconds or milliseconds.

—————————————————————————————————

a lot of articles online say the internet is made from all of our interconnected devices and then stop there. which left me feeling unsatisfied.

and people telling me to think of IP or MAC addresses like a home address that IDs our homes.

some people go a step further and say the internet and networks are like buildings and roads with cars. 

and I suppose you can go with a road, railway etc metaphor,

but I vibe with my airport methaphor. I mean internet protocols sound like various airliners! 

and transportation all serve the same purpose so there's no BIG DEAL and "we see what we want to see, when we're ready to see it." ✅☑️✅

I said at the start when "Ralph wrecked the internet" when I saw that movie and Ralph and Venelope were in the internet, I saw what I wanted to see: an airport/railway station with vendors serving Internet protocols. 💻🌐

I don't have anything else to add to this post, so I'm ending things here and idk when I'll write another blog for nobody to read/find. 

Bye for now 👋

OP Poet's Blogger Bio https://www.blogger.com/profile/00269580454109027597

so this kind of a part 2 of a blog. the first part can be found here and that's just me wondering if milk and water are technicaly the same colour? 

I asked around on a bunch of questions websites for professional nerds to read and attempt to answer; as well as some nerdy friends of mine. :) 

and here's where I am now: 

Reflection: When a wave meets a boundary, it can be reflected or transmitted. Reflection can be partial or complete. Reflection can also involve a phase flip (change of phase of 180 degrees.) 

Refraction: Occurs when a wave crosses a boundary from one medium to another. A wave entering a medium at an angle will change direction. 

Diffraction: Refers to the "bending of waves around an edge" of an object. Diffraction depends on the size of the object relative to the wavelength of the wave.

which brings me to my question: are water and milk technicaly the same colour? 

in short no. sad right? let me explain like in BBC Bitesize amounts. 

Water is technicaly colourless because it has total reflection going on compared to milk. partly because water and milk have different densities.
(for a few reasons including how milk is made) but mainly because when light hits water, most is REFRACTED and DIFFRACTED and some is REFLECTED. 

with milk, less light is diffracted and more light gets absorbed.
so in conclusion, translucent objects are different coloured to opaque objects.

Milk v Water

there are 3 types if people when it comes to the "coffee v tea" argument

1. those who like coffee

2. thise who like tea

3. joksters who like to bring up a third drink option they like or saying they like both drinks equally.

not that one option is better than the other, these questions are normally used to break the ice when meeting new people.

icebreakers are cool, but asking for favourites can get boring if you don't follow up. i mean you're already in a conversation, so why are you afraid of conversing with the other person/people?

anyhoo, usually the 3rd option for coffee or tea involves someone saying milk, water or hot coco.

and i've a thought that been bugging me for a while now which is

if white is the colour that reflects all colours, then are milk and water technically the same colour?

i posted the quested on Quora and i got some responses that i don't fully understand, but what i can take away is

1. milk is opaque while water is transparent

2. milk and water both aren't pure, they both have lots of  other chemicals mixed into them

3. (linking on from point 1) 

water, milk and air have different densities

and light diffracts, reflects and refracts at different angles. SO they appear differently

then there are the more technical answers which are confusing to grasp without visual explanations/someone to converse to

so that's why i wrote this blog, so i can share with people with better understanding and get a satisfying answer (because i feel like my head is going to explode)

Human Consciousness

if i lost the ability to speak to myself, i'd probably kill myself. 

that probably sounds weird reading/hearing as another person right? 

but let me explain studios

because, i talk to myself all the time, despite what people say about the "rules of madness" 

as a human being, i have a consciousness, and i happen to give my consciousness its own voice (2 in fact) so that i can give myself pep-talks when other people aren't around. similar to what Homer Jay Simpson does with his brain.

anyways, what i'm trying to say is, that i have my own voice, a voice of reason and my inner child ALSO, if i couldn't talk to myself, i wouldn't be able to understand anything or make any decision so i'd probably be a danger to society since i could set things on fire or kick an old lady in the shin or poop on somebody's doorstep. 

i would also be a danger to myself and i would be a danger to others, since i won't know if i should stick a fork in a wall socket or not. (obviously if i absolutely NEED to, i would turn it off from the socket)

SO

in conclusion, i'd be a little bit of a psychopath who would probably end up killing myself ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
