“The Analytical Engine weaves algebraic patterns, just as the Jacquard loom weaves flowers and leaves.”

“If you can't give me poetry, can't you give me "poetical science"?”

“I am in a charming state of confusion.”

“The Analytical Engine has no pretensions whatever to originate anything. It can do whatever we know how to order it to perform.”

“What is imagination?... It is a God-like, a noble faculty. It renders earth tolerable, it teaches us to live, in the tone of the eternal.”

Tales from childhood: Physical exercise with benefits.

Hello, dear readers! I'm Mr. H. What have you been up to? What interesting things happened?

This is how it happened for me. My wife and I washed the windows in our new apartment. Our son participated, too.

It was like a gym class. We repeated the same movements many times! Ha-ha-ha!

"Dad, I brought cleaning supplies," my son said.

"Thank you very much, son" I said with happiness.

"Oh, I'm already tired; everything will probably hurt tomorrow!" my wife said.

"No matter, we did something useful and trained our bodies." I encouraged her.

The next day we really felt the result of the "training", but all the windows in the new apartment became cleaner, and the view of the street became more vivid.

Subjectivity.

Subjectivity is something that relates to the thoughts of a specific person.

Some people simply express their opinion about a subject and give it a rating. However, points of view may differ.

Objectivity is the opposite of subjectivity. These are different philosophical ideas.
