I've been thinking about adding off topic posts, so to speak, the nominal topic of this blog being computing.

Computing, of course, is a means to an end, or to ends.

Am I belittling computing by saying that? It sounds like it, but I'm really not. What could be better than a means to an end?

There's a guy I go to to riff on stuff. I visited him, yesterday, and started going on about all these circularities in my work. It sounded kind of crazy, but I've got this theory going that reflexive action is actually the foundation of existence. (Reflexive action? Is that the right terms. My intent is to describe something that acts, through some process, on itself.)

Anyway, as regards something being a means to an end, according to my theory, being a means to an end is the essence of being.

Ok, is there anything else? Is there, perhaps, being and then living, where living would be moving through being, moving from one means/end to another?

Thus the logic, in a sense, of including off topic posts in a topical blog.
