Synopsis

History of Astronomy explores humanity's quest to understand the cosmos, tracing our knowledge from ancient star charts to modern space telescopes. It highlights pivotal moments and figures, revealing how cultural, technological, and scientific advancements have shaped our perception of the universe. The book emphasizes that our understanding of the cosmos is not static but evolves through human curiosity and ingenuity.

 
It's intriguing to note how ancient civilizations used astronomy for calendars and navigation, and how the Copernican Revolution shifted our worldview from geocentric to heliocentric. The book journeys through astronomical history, starting with ancient civilizations like the Babylonians, Egyptians, and Greeks, examining their cosmological models.

 
It then focuses on the Copernican Revolution and figures like Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, and Newton, exploring the scientific and social implications of their ideas. Finally, it delves into modern astrophysics, the development of telescopes, and the era of space exploration, revealing discoveries like galaxies and black holes. The approach is accessible, avoiding technical jargon and focusing on the human stories behind scientific discoveries.

    In RNJesus They Trust: Game Design, Your Time & Your Luck is a witty, sharp-eyed exploration of randomness in modern gaming — and how it blesses, tests, or exploits the players who kneel before it. From the ecstatic thrill of a rare drop to the soul-crushing grind of gacha pulls, game developers have turned RNG (random number generation) into a design pillar that fuels excitement and monetization. But where does randomness stop being fun and start wasting your time — or draining your wallet? This book unpacks that question across genres: MMOs, gacha games, roguelikes, shooters, and strategy titles. It blends game design insight with psychological analysis and a dash of sacred satire, portraying “RNJesus” as the unpredictable deity we’ve all prayed to at 2 AM. Whether you're a game designer, critic, or lifelong gamer tired of losing to the dice, this book offers clarity, laughter, and empowerment. Learn to recognize fair design, spot exploitative patterns, and advocate for gaming systems that respect your time — and your luck.

    State of the Union 1982

    In the 1982 State of the Union address on January 26, 1982, Reagan invokes his self-deprecating humor and calls for “a new spirit of partnership between this Congress and this administration”. Reagan cites the “stagflation” of the 1970s: double digit inflation, interest rates over 21%, and over 8 million unemployed.  
    Reagan notes economic improvement and calls for reduced federal spending, further tax reductions, and fewer regulations, saying our economic problems “are the inheritance of decades of tax and tax and spend and spend.”  
    Reagan calls for dismantling the Departments of Energy and Education but keeping a reliable safety net for those in need by rooting out waste and fraud in the food stamp, Medicare, and Medicaid programs. Reagan decries the growth in federal grant programs to state and local governments and calls for major reforms. 
    A short paragraph was lost at 23:15 of the Ronald Reagan presidential library recording. The missing words can be seen in the text version. 
    In meetings with foreign leaders, Reagan “spoke of the strength of the free marketplace system and how that system could help them realize their aspirations for economic development and political freedom.” Reagan endorses sanctions against the Soviet Union for its actions in Poland and Afghanistan, and urges “that we rebuild our defenses.”  
    Reagan concludes with a call to work together to preserve “the sacred flame of liberty -- this last, best hope of man on Earth.” This address followed the assassination attempt and the applause at the start and end was extensive.
