Life is a Transient

Long time since the last post. Before any of you get any delusion that the Constant has been reached (which cant be so. Not yet anyway), let me perturbate the old blog back into life.
With, unstrangely enough, the subject of life.

Life is a transient. So says many a bearded and slightly (!!) deranged man in orange robes. So also claimed the even more de-ranged Sage Quantum Mechanicus.

However, this global theory has to be fleshed out a bit with numbers, quadrants and graphs, says the spirit of excel, powerpoint and all irrelevantly relevant things such as these.
So behold - The wonder of Autoshapes - the Transient of Life

Exist there many interpretations in my mind of all this. (Most of them decidedly un-funny!)
But I leave you to make your own.

Like me, perhaps you can at last make use of some of those Control Systems, or Electronic Circuits courses taken in Engineering! Your options are:
1- Use super technical language of damping and max overshoot for some timely - but unfortunately - geeky jokes
2- Look pensively into the distance and draw (prophetic) analogies between transients of electrical systems and transients of life.


















(As you can see, the prime motivation of this post was just to start off the morning with that autoshape line thingy that 'curves' away on its own. I had often wondered if it would be possible to draw oscillations within an envelope with that thing. I know my answer now. Deep, eh.)
