Hello Folks!
Exactly a week ago, my good friend and I had an agreement. And that is, I am going to jot down the things that I have learned for a week!
I have to admit that upon jotting down the new things that I have learned, I was so amazed on the amount of information I was able to know at such a short time.
Anyway, Here's the list:
Wednesday
My concept of a data storage looks like these:
Only to find out that there's such a thing as a 5 D optical storage

According to en.wikipedia.org,
5D optical data storage (sometimes known as Superman memory crystal[1]) is a nanostructured glass for permanently recording 5-D digital data[2] using femtosecond laser writing process.[3] The memory crystal is capable of storing up to 360 terabytes worth of data[4][5] for billions of years.[6][7][8][9] The concept was experimentally demonstrated in 2013.[10][11][12] As of 2018 the technology is in production use by the Arch Mission Foundation; its first and second discs were given to Elon Musk, one disc is in his personal library and the other placed aboard the Tesla Roadster in space.[13]
Before, I thought DNA was only used to identify diseases and any biological related problems. I was wrong.
There is such a thing as DNA storage, folks!

Thursday
I have the unfortunate experience of learning about a person who uploaded child pornography on a block chain.
And spent the day reconciling the fact that if I get to make a blockchain transaction, I am doing this out of financial purposes and out of no other sinister reasons.
Friday
I discovered a historical TV series Medici- Masters of Florence and, I did not do anything but watch for the rest of the day!
Hey, I am into historical movies especially historically accurate ones!

Saturday
I get to know the finer points on STEEMIT WITNESSES .
And I decided to write a post about them in case someone out there is just as ignorant as me.
Sunday
As a child, I have always been using pencil erasers and ink erasers of various shapes and sizes
But it was at that moment only that I have learned that there is such a thing as a MOLDABLE ERASER!

To make things worst, they are even scented!
How was I not able to learn about this when I almost always spend my spare time in office supply stores or bookstores???
MONDAY
While browsing in our community, I get to learn about light paintings.
As a result, I got obsessed with it!
I get to engage more in our community and I have come to know that there is such a thing as a Futurist
Or as our good friends in en.wikipedia defines the word:
Futurists or futurologists are scientists and social scientists whose specialty is futurology or the attempt to systematically explore predictions and possibilities about the future and how they can emerge from the present, whether that of human society in particular or of life on Earth in general.
Tuesday
I posted a story on my "unusual" hobby of watching animated movies and cartoons.
And discovered to my surprise that I am not alone and, we might even start a new Discord Channel/ group!
Animated movie lovers? Cartoon watchers? Overaged animated movie lovers?
I'll leave that one out for you folks!
I've learned that my good friend
is advocating for a cause.
And, I was completely ignorant about this despite the fact that I follow him and, I am almost always on line!
Here's the link folks. I re steemed and upvoted it already.
Wednesday
I get to learn that it's finally time to write my week long learning experience and, felt resentful that I was not given more time to write my post on Steemit delegators.
There you go folks! A week long of learning! How did you guys spend your week? What have you learned? Please let me know in the comment section. Do not hesitate to share them with me- I am always interested to know of new things!
