Austin Issues Shelter In Place Guidance
A Quick Update About The Blog Here
Today Austin, TX Mayor Steve Adler issued a shelter in place order to help prevent the spread of the deadly coronavirus responsible for Covid-19. I’ve decided to sort of shift gears and write more about how to cope with Covid-19 and less about the biophysics of it. This shift ought to allow me to more adequately work from my roots and my training as a philosopher, while simultaneously reaching a wider audience.
Over the past few weeks, I’ve written about cryptocurrency — a subject I’m still very interested in and planning to write more about, eventually — as well as politics and the coronavirus. If you’ll notice, none of these topics are really directly in line with my philosophy degrees.
That’s not really unusual for me, as I’ve done everything from scientific whitepapers and patents to novels, so perhaps my first and truest calling is that of an ordinary wordsmith or writer. In any case, when I started my blog, FutureProof, my intention quickly melted away and I found myself doing all sorts of things I hadn’t really set out to do initially. It has been a wild ride but as I recall my original goal, it seems to me that it is going to be important to get back on track to really begin to connect with the audience I want to pursue.
