I literally cannot answer this without seeming like a pretentious, arrogant ass. Anyway, quantum field theory, high energy physics, condensed matter physics, generative art, computing algorithms, arcane math theories (meaning difficult to understand, not magical), procedural art, simulations, awesome places to visit in the world, Factorio, the channels I watch on YouTube. Honestly, I don't have anyone around me who cares about or understands most of my hobbies. They all love me and care for me, just not the stuff I like.
What they don't understand is that the factory must grow
And grow it shall. Nice to meet you fellow engineer. Nauvis deserves to be paved for being in the way of our ships.
have you watched the youtube series 'the biggest ideas in the universe'? it's got about all that (no art). That PBS space time channel is additionally quite fire
I never miss a Space Time. So glad I found that years ago. Thank you for the suggestion.
Contrary to some of the other comments here I think what you are saying is pretentious, but also that it's good, It's Good to be pretentious, at least sometimes.
I try to think about it like this sometimes: "Don't be a gatekeeper, but also try to hit the in joke when appropriate.
