One year later… Last year was my first encounter with the robotic arm. I managed to understand what it is and how to set it up. Sounds superficial? Indeed!. This spring semester I decided to face the robotic arm again, with a bit more patience and a bit more courage. I felt confident that at least I can learn a bit more on the software side. Goals: The GRAND goal was to stack jenga blocks in a closed-loop visual control rather than a scripted coordinate. To achieve this I give myself some Sub Go ...

My Exploration of Tech: I started exploring tech at the beginning of the summer before freshman year. Before that, most of what I cared about was economics, politics, food, and tennis. So honestly, it was a pretty late start. My real, almost logarithmic boost into technology came in the fall of my sophomore year. Through Tech and Innovation I, I found a class that gave me much more freedom to access and experiment with different areas of technology. A lot of times, I would watch YouTube videos a ...

When I Heard the Learn’d Astronomer By Walt Whitman When I heard the learn’d astronomer, When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me, When I was shown the charts and diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them, When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with much applause in the lecture-room, How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick, Till rising and gliding out I wander’d off by myself, In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time, Look’d up in perfe ...

Proposal: I basically wrote a simple, unnecessary auto-logic-flow of by two week questionnaire with the aid of WEBBgpt. And it identifies the major key works and use insert the variables in the pre-made f-string. Still, this is unnecessary. Auto Code: Show/Hide Python code 123456789101112131415161718192021222324252627282930313233343536373839404142434445464748495051525354555657585960616263646566676869707172737475767778798081828384858687888990919293949596979899100101102103104105106107108109110111 ...

To Be or Not to Be I have seen the rise of the ultimate mega. And I have heard about its potential. And like what Lincoln Stephens wrote in 1919, he exclaimed: I have seen the future, and it works! Mirroring to Stephens’ awe at the Bolshevik, I do, and yes I do at the current mega today. And what is the purpose if the mega can do things much better. What is the purpose if all of your questions can be answered. And what if, what if, if everything at the start is wrong, and the mega is the onl ...

The Story of a Normal life I have an uncle named Mr. Hundred. He, like my father, was born in one of the millions of villages in the dragon’s land. And the dragon provided him, like anyone else, with a little sugar and a load of pain. Mr. Hundred, who was not much past his twenties, seldom carried the fresh taste of a teenager. I don’t remember seeing him smile randomly or often. Yes, he does smile—half a cup of circumstance and half a cup of numbness. And since he reminds me of a Chinese wise, ...
