For this special episode of Contemplating Life, we present a video of a live presentation I made on April 20, 2023, at the PATINS Tech Expo. There is an audio-only linked below. Eventually, I will have a transcript as well. I just wanted to get this episode up quickly.
Note: Portions of this episode deal with adult topics. Viewer discretion is advised.
