Split-brain experiments started with the problem of interocular transfer. That is, if one learns with one eye how to solve a problem, then with that eye covered and using the other eye, one readily solves the problem without further learning. This is called “interocular transfer of learning.” Of course, the learning is not in the eye and then transferred to the other eye, but that is the way it is usually described. The fact that transfer occurs may seem obvious, but it is in the questioning of the obvious that discoveries are often produced. In this case, the question was: How can the learning with one eye appear with use of the other? Put in experimentally testable terms, where are the two eyes connected? Experiments showed that the transfer actually occurs between the hemispheres by way of the corpus callosum.

When I started in technology, virtual machines (virtualized servers hosted in a physical machine), were well positioned and pervasive—it was easy to find them everywhere, from hosting providers to regular companies with big servers in the IT room. A lot of online software providers were offering virtualized hosting. At work, I honed my skills, trying to learn as much as possible about virtualization. The ability to run virtual machines within some other host offered a lot of (welcomed) flexibility.

Whenever a new technology solves a problem (or any number of issues really), a trail of ...
