Ernesto points me to Bacon Zen, a collection of savory bacon links. But really? Bacon chocolate chip cookies?

Profile
Dave Bacon is a theoretical ski bum who is also a pseudo professor. His research is on quantum computing, his scientific passions extend to everything in physics, mathematics, computer science and beyond, and his personal pleasures include making wine, playing poker, skiing, camping, and daydreaming (although not all of those at the same time.)
Nothing he says on this blog should be construed as having anything to do with his employer or his dog.

I never did care too much for Bacon. I'm more of a Descartes man myself. :-) That is, when it comes to choosing between deduction and induction as the primary logic used in the search of reliable understanding; I choose deduction. I trust "I think; therefore I am" over "All polar bears thus found are white; therefore any polar bear must be white".
