Hmph!

The nap I took earlier today yesterday was sound enough to keep me refreshed for quite a while... witness this late night post. Checking in also revealed that I post on which I'd been working never actually got posted (now fixed).

Further research into why the code in org-collector.el appears not to work on my Linux laptop suggested that something might be wrong with my .emacs file, and while performance improved dramatically upon moving some stuff around, it's still not at 100%.

The important thing to keep in mind is that I'm getting closer to resolving this issue. In the meantime, the coordination between my org data files on my Windows machine and my Linux laptop has broken down, which means I'll have to compare the files at some time in the future to make sure all changes get made to both files. That comparison session should take place soon, as whatever differences exist leave me vulnerable, to one degree or another.

Cheers...

Fate works in strange ways...

I find myself translating an article on "strange quark stars."

??!!??!

St. Jerome, pray for me.

Correction...

I'm sorry, did I say "quark stars?"

I meant to say, "strange quark stars."

The objective of this work is to study the distribution of the magnetic field in a more realistic strange quark star, with a core consisting of atomic nuclei and degenerate electrons (Ae phase).

This is not getting much easier.

Ah, well...

First steps...

I decided to make the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit the subject of an online course I decided to develop for Udemy. I don't expect to make scads of money from this course, but I figure the sweat I invest in putting together approximately an hour of video on a chess opening I've been playing for almost the last half century will probably ease the process of creating a second more commercially viable course.

The link, FWIW:
