Banger The Banger ========== There's a person online who is never ignored, wherever they post or they play; their content's the stuff that the people adore, from morning to end of the day. They’re cheered on with likes in the digital lands, and followed by all neighborhoods; wherever they post, there's applause and more fans— they’re The Banger Who Delivers the Goods. The lurkers of feeds just scroll on and lament; their posts never seem to take flight; their memes miss the mark, their replies seem half-sent, their engagement's a trickle, not quite. The crowd tires of accounts that just fade into blur, in the echo of bland neighborhoods; but there’s one who commands every comment and stir— they’re The Banger Who Delivers the Goods. Some barely can bother, just sharing reposts, and hoping for traction in vain; some clog up the feed with their endless lame boasts, and some whine their way to disdain. But one always crafts with precision and flair, while others stay stuck in their moods; they hit every platform with style and care— they’re The Banger Who Delivers the Goods. One frets if they’ve shared something too spicy, and one stays too safe, dull, and bland; one floods with spam, trying to stay commercial, but their reach is just dust in the sand. So here’s to the wizard of wit and of charm, whose posts lift us all out of slumps; it’s a toast to the genius, the digital star— The Banger Who Delivers the Goods! @breckyunits ============ 09/03/2026 2026 263 1.3

Complexity A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work. You have to start over with a working simple system.

Genius Do you hear them talking of genius, Degna? There is no such thing. Genius, if you like to call it that, is the gift of work continuously applied. That's all it is, as I have proved for myself. from My Father Marconi 09/03/2026 2026 43 0.2
Hamming Now for the matter of drive. You observe that most great scientists have tremendous drive. I worked for ten years with John Tukey at Bell Labs. He had tremendous drive. One day about three or four years after I joined, I discovered that John Tukey was slightly younger than I was. John was a genius and I clearly was not. Well I went storming into Bode’s office and said, “How can anybody my age know as much as John Tukey does?” He leaned back in his chair, put his hands behind his head, grinned slightly, and said, “You would be surprised Hamming, how much you would know if you worked as hard as he did that many years.” I simply slunk out of the office! What Bode was saying was this: “Knowledge and productivity are like compound interest.” Given two people of approximately the same ability and one person who works ten percent more than the other, the latter will more than twice outproduce the former. The more you know, the more you learn; the more you learn, the more you can do; the more you can do, the more the opportunity – it is very much like compound interest. I don’t want to give you a rate, but it is a very high rate. Given two people with exactly the same ability, the one person who manages day in and day out to get in one more hour of thinking will be tremendously more productive over a lifetime. I took Bode’s remark to heart; I spent a good deal more of my time for some years trying to work a bit harder and I found, in fact, I could get more work done. I don’t like to say it in front of my wife, but I did sort of neglect her sometimes; I needed to study. You have to neglect things if you intend to get what you want done. There’s no question about this. Richard Hamming. You and Your Research. 1986 09/03/2026 2026 337 1.7

Walking Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Everyday, I walk myself into a state of well-being & walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. But by sitting still, & the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill. Thus if one just keeps on walking, everything will be all right. Søren Kierkegaard (1847) 09/03/2026 2026 79 0.4
