SF Bay Area, California to Pittsburgh PA trip
Stephon and Frederic,
Greetings from about 350 miles east of Berkeley on the road from The SF Bay Area to Pittsburgh, most of World Univ & Sch's and my business accomplished there in a brief window if time in northern California ... And moving my things from the west coast to the eastern seaboard ... on the asylum road to the east coast and eastern woodland forests. ... It's a journey mostly on Interstate Hwy 80 for much of the 2567 mile trip from SF Bay to Pgh PA ... I have my things in a rental truck ...Have been traveling through pretty, forested land in California, up to the crest of the Sierra mountains ... and could possibly see moving back into 670 Ridgecrest Road , Canyon CA 94516 10 miles east of Berkeley again on September 1 2023 even.
Am bringing a lightweight key board, a Shruti box & a harmonium, both from India, a great highland bagpipe (dried out) and a practice chanter ... And will put some of these musical instruments in the little living room on East End Ave in Pgh to experiment with ... and see what happens with you Stephon and Frederic, my new housemates, both playing a musical instrument ... trumpet and guitar ...
See you possibly on Saturday October 1 2022.
How are you both doing?
Cheers, Scott

Thank you for engaging with my work Neha! I see that we are MIT kindred. Perhaps we can connect in-person the next time I am campus. I would love to hear about your research at CSAIL.
The Staggering Ecological Impacts of Computation and the Cloud
The cloud is not only material but also an ecological force
By Steven Gonzalez Monserrate,
The MIT Press Reader on March 1, 2022
"Some have proposed relocating data centers to Nordic countries like Iceland or Sweden, in a bid to utilize ambient, cool air to minimize carbon footprint, a technique called “free cooling.” However, network signal latency issues make this dream of a haven for green data centers largely untenable to meet the computing and data storage demands of the wider world."

I am sending you 1π! Pi is a new digital currency developed by Stanford PhDs, with over 35 million members worldwide. To claim your Pi, follow this link
