Had an interesting idea today. Put in its most pithy form, it goes: Philosophy of science is to sociology of science as physics is to engineering. PhilSci is concerned with ideal situations and states of affairs, while sociology of science is most concerned with what actually goes on. Perhaps one day we’ll even get to the stage where the two fields will speak to one another enough to make some use of each other.

Yay /.! Here’s a cool site that compares scenes in the Matrix with scenes from Ghost in the Shell, two of my favourite dystopian movies. It does point out some of the scenes I noticed, like the shooting-the-pillar scene, but also some I didn’t notice too.

Well, It’s been a while, and much craziness has occurred since I last posted. The Olympics have begun, rocked, and ended, Shay bought a DVD player, and I’ve got a new job! (Well, the job is really Leveraged Work v2.0, since I’ll be working for Adelaide bank at Leveraged equities doing customer support, getting paid niiiice money.)
