Introduction

As of 28th June 2020, the web-site at https://phtan.github.io is shaping up to be a wiki about myself - or a memex.

What is a memex?

“Consider a future device … in which an individual stores all his books, records, and communications, and which is mechanized so that it may be consulted with exceeding speed and flexibility. It is an enlarged intimate supplement to his memory.” - (Vannevar Bush, 1945)

I first got to know about a memex, through Devine Lu Linvega, who is part of the two-person research studio known as Hundred Rabbits.

Dedication

Dedicated to the god of Abraham and the prophets, Almighty Creator - for as long as He will let His servant (me) glorify Him. (G!D knows where and who His other servants are, and I do not know).

Let me quote from the Bible - well, hey, I can pretty well quote from the Bible, if I want

Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call his attention to its buildings. “Do you see all these things?” he asked. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.” - (Matthew 24:1-2)
