i remember having quite strange & unusual qualia as a child (kind of hard to describe & varied, i remember 2 specifically (not just the old “having more imagination” or “being easier to frighten”, but on a similar level as déja vu)), but these have faded over time as i went through adolescence. i wonder whether this is common. perhaps i should write that up, together with a rough description of those qualia

Monero and Other Privacy Coins
As I said in other writings and videos, no serious cryptocurrency can function in real life which is not also a truly private cryptocurrency.

By far, the most popular of all these is Monero, which has already become the de facto currency of the dark web, but also of all cryptocurrency users _who actually use cryptocurrency … ⌘ Read more

Why I Use the GPL and Not Cuck Licenses
Every piece of software I write I license under the GNU Public License Version 3 (GPLv3) unless I have forked it from something else.

The GPLv3 is the premiere copyleft license, meaning that it not only allows users to run, modify and distribute their own versions of what I write, but it also requires that no one in that chain of development restrict and close-source that software: it and sof … ⌘ Read more

Learn Chinese

Image

Chinese is the hardest language to learn according to normies who have never tried to learn it.

In reality, Chinese is really easy. It has literally no complex morphology: no tense, plurals, gender. It doesn’t have irregular verbs or nouns because it has no verb and noun endings whatsoever. It’s almost difficult to explain how easy Chinese is.

The only different thing is the writing system which is I hesitate to say anachronistic. The Chinese character system i … ⌘ Read more

Nobody’s saying he can’t write code any more (I mean, I think his code is crap and wish he’d stop, but that’s another issue). But he should not be on any board, should not be in any leadership position, should not be held up as a role model or even vaguely okay.

I agree clients should present things better (part of why I’m writing one!). But that should be additive. There’s a reason we’re not passing json around.

Wanna learn LaTeX?

Wanna learn LaTeX? What is LaTeX?

Basically, it’s how big boys write and format documents.
Every public brief, scientific article, book, cryptocurrency whitepaper or even outline written by people who know what they’re doing is written in LaTeX.

If you want to see examples of documents made with LaTeX, you can see my Master’s thesis here or another paper here that shows some diagrams and other features you can have in LaTe … ⌘ Read more

my plan would involve writing the code for a seed asi and giving it a completely senseless goal, such as maximizing the number of paperclips & spreading as far as possible. this would benefit no one & cause untold damage. i will take no questions

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah it reads a seed file. I’m using mine. it scans for any mention links and then scans them recursively. it reads from http/s or gopher. i don’t have much of a db yet.. it just writes to disk the feed and checks modified dates.. but I will add a db that has hashs/mentions/subjects and such.

Being misunderstood is a great temporary moat. I could write a book on this, but suffice it to say, I didn’t have confidence in my own vision until I took the time to really look at others and realized that the main difference between me and the average idiot was that I had bothered to look at the ideas of other idiots at all. It was like their entire ontology had become an ant farm. It was the moment I realized, I am a super-idiot. I only half joke, because becoming a super-idiot liberated me from the perfectionism and the addiction to approval that caused a stultifying and primal narcissistic fear of criticism. If you are struggling with this, take it from someone on the other side of it: It’s ok, you’re an idiot. The Strength of Being Misunderstood | Hacker News

okay. txtnish is now officially sketchy. sometimes feeds don’t update, even if I run txtnish update, and this means missing replies. I gotta find something else if I’m going to make this more than a write-only experience.

New website
Got a new simplified website. Real old school, no CSS sheet. I’m going to make it more text-based and have more writings.

I’ve also rolled over this RSS feed.

A lot of the site is still unfinished, so notify my of anything I’ve missed so far.
I want to keep old links more or less in place. I haven’t decided if I want to keep using my old blog script (this entry is RSS only).
I feel like I had neglected the blog for a while, and my new site is more conducive to browsing as I add even more. ⌘ Read more
