The most primordial choise one has to make about themselves: are you born into the world or out of this world, are you made or grown. Where do you end and the world begins. If you are of faith, where do you end and God begins? If you ware of reason, where does one machine end and another begin? Kirkegaard says, you are either a made of reason, or of faith, but to choose faith is a leap of reason, to choose reason it is a leap of faith. But I think, the choice of your making is in the core of your alignment. I love carburated air cooled four stroke engines. It allows me to extend myself into the machine. I also love hazard3 risc-v for the same reason, 6502 and 8080. Anything I understand completes me. As I learn, I can understand more complicated machines, liquid cooled hysteresis, or x64, but often even though I understand the mechanics and dynamics of a system, but it feels foreign. Fuel injection for example. It seems undestanding is an emotion. Anything I do not understand is separate from me. Anything I understand is a part of me. I do not end at my fingertips, through understanding I expand into the world, as I am from this world. This is what I am. And from here, I can jump into reason or faith. And I have.
