And off I go
Hello everyone out there, I’m Charles Rojo.
Glad you stopped by!
Welcome to my blog, Thoughts, created with the realization that so many of my thoughts often go unspoken. I’ve decided that I shouldn’t let this be any longer, so here, I’ll share my thoughts & experiences with you, and I’ll try to make them interesting along the way. I hope you stay for a while!
I’m a Computer Scientist from Long Island, NY, currently pursuing my Master’s degree at Stony Brook University. As such, I’m encountering some thought-provoking theories in science and technology as I work my way through the complex world of computation. These concepts are powerful, and it’s a shame that they are often hidden in talks behind closed doors at universities. I’ll try to expose the best of these theories here in my own light, adding dashes of entertainment to the mix. If you’re a techie, or if you’re otherwise interested in technology, science, theory, or any of the many aspects that come to play in our connected world, read on! You’re in the right place.
What good are powerful theories if they’re never put to use?
I’m working on a few projects in my spare time. Some are for curiosity’s sake, while others i feel can have a big impact if fully developed and done well. Rather then develop them in a darkroom, I’d like to use this place to give you all a glimpse into what I have in the works. At the very least, maybe I’ll peak your interest with them.
It’s not uncommon for me to have a some ideas here and there about how a particular issue ought to be contemplated, handled, improved, or otherwise changed. They can be ideas in computing, technology, science, or just the world in general. In the past, I’d scratch my head and think “yeah… maybe,” then move on. I’d think, “How could I possibly do that by myself?” I’m one man, and my resources are limited. Though not impossible, it’s tough to change the world. It’s a big world to change.
But as big as it is, it just so happens that the internet now wraps it. In truth, you people out there (all those able to access this blog from the web), collectively, are the world. So, I’ll think of this blog as my voice to the world’s ears. If I have an idea that I feel might have a good impact if it comes to fruition, I’ll post it here. If you like it, disagree with it, or want to help me implement or refine it, jump in and do so. Leave comments, and share your own ideas as well. Have a look at my projects: If they interest you, most will be open projects, so you should think about contributing to them =)
You should also think about starting your own projects. If you get a brain storm, my advice is to get your ideas out into the world as fast as you can. I can’t imagine how much untold genius has passed through the minds of the millions that have come before us, never to escape, lost forever, written off with “well … it’s not worth a mention.” Remember this: The internet lets you to speak to the world. Share your ideas! The more you do, probability’s gotta give. You can get the world’s attention, and probably even the change that you’re looking for. Just make sure it’s change for the better
Enjoy your stay, & Thanks!
