Time

From time to time, I like to make minor tweaks to my blog based on the treasure trinklets I find around in different corners of the internet from blogs/works of personalities I follow/find interesting.

I got into the practice of logging updates in reverse chronological streams from one of my professors in my sophomore year.

I began personalized hex timestamps (today is 0x2360 for me) because I don’t intuitively gel well with the (Julian -> Gregorian) cycles. The combination of lunar, solar and planetary cycles is my most recent experimental initiative for calibrating long term efforts but that would be a little too chaotic for the part of the world wide web that I mostly interact with these days.

Currently, I prefer tracking the temporal increments of my existence (“age” is what normal humans would say this means) via hex timestamps.

Years ago, I kept track of my age in years and months like normal humans do.

I maintain the habit of analysing my mindset every major temporal mileston in my life - when I turned 10 (I don’t quite remember exactly how I felt then) or 20, for instance, in accordance with the widely accepted gregorian calendar.
