Reading
Finally got around to reading "The Goal" by Eliyahu M. Goldratt and Jeff Cox , recommended to me by my manager. I appreciated the introduction to the audio book, discussing the distance between what is "truth" and what science truly attempts to measure.
The Goal is about science and education. I believe that these two words have been abused to the extent that their original meanings have been lost in a fog of too much respect and mystery. Science for me, and for the vast majority of respectable scientists, is not about the secrets of nature or even about truths. Science is simply the method we use to try and postulate a minimum set of assumptions that can explain, through a straightforward logical derivation, the existence of many phenomena of nature.
The Law of Conservation of Energy of physics is not truth. It is just an assumption that is valid in explaining a tremendous amount of natural phenomena. Such an assumption can never be proven since even an infinite number of phenomena that can be explained by it does not prove its universal application. On the other hand, it can be disproved by just a single phenomenon that cannot be explained by the assumption. This disproving does not detract from the validity of the assumption. It just highlights the need or even the existence of another assumption that is more valid. This is the case with the assumption of the conservation of energy which was replaced by Einstein’s more global—more valid —postulation of the conservation of energy and mass. Einstein’s assumption is not true to the same extent that the previous one was not “true.

worked on implementing animated details elements, and discovered that margin doesn't animate. a good ole <div style="height: 1rem" /> fixed that.
Anyone have an idea for why my details animation is weird at the end? codepen.io/jasikpark/pe... developer.chrome.com/docs/css-ui/... #HTML #CSS #interpolate-size #CSSTricks
