I was today years old...

When I learned that most application processing softwares drop resumes with hyperlinks in them. Looks like it's back to the drawing board for 'ole Emmett.

The River Delta

"Emmett, do you want to say something?" she asked. The main hall was stifling to me in that moment. The barn which was converted into a two story classroom and office space, left a large portion open, and laminated. It had mirrors and parallel bars across one side for ballet, but was used for other large events when needed. Sitting in training like I was, with the huge vaulted space above me I decided to close the journal I had been furiously scribbling in, and speak. "...yyyeeaah?" Everyone chuckled a bit. I tried to compose my thoughts. "I think our programming is... well Meat-space-centric?" Looking around the room I had everyone's eyes, and they looked like the eyes of someone who has just heard a soon to be passerby start yammering under their breath. They were braced for some crazy. I continued. "People use the term meat-space to present a dichotomy between the 'real' and 'virtual' worlds. I mean there is no such thin...

ADHD - The other side.

I have heard that the number of kids being diagnosed with ADHD has been increasing. Now I'm no scientist, (perhaps of the severely agitated kind but no other) but I'm not sure if It's the kids.

Books your only escape. Think of the focus and commitment towards your imagined realities. Dictionaries become tomes of meaning, able to unlock hundreds of thousands of worlds.

VR Eugene - Order of Operations

Every week I get to watch people dive into Virtual Reality for the first time. I strap in first timers, and regulars so they can immerse themselves in whatever experience they wish. I thought I would share my order of operations and my basic script for getting people situated. 1.) Get your kit together. I usually put my non-dominant arm through the headstraps of the Vive. This lets you put the headphones higher up at your elbow, and hold the controllers in your hands. Loosen the head straps to accommodate for people with large skulls. 2.) Controls. Secure the safety loop on their dominant hand, before placing it in their grasp. When they hold one controller and you hold the other ask them to "Take note: there is a trigger on the underside and a thumb pad on the top." You can point to the controller that you hold, while they follow along on the one they have. Most games use these controls but indicate the menu, system, and grip buttons anyway just in case. Also now is a ...
