 I realized the type of programming I want to do is different from the kind that 
 is used at a job or something. Basically I want to create solutions to problems,
 not memorize documentation and know where to know what you need to know. Like, 
 the more time spent looking at documentation the less time is spent programming.
 I think if we could use a ChatGPT style bot to write documentation, we could
 massively increase the time spent working on solving problems and as little time
 as possible on reading through lists of functions or wondering how something 
 worked. Idk in the technology industry you've always been rewarded for being 
 able to pick up new skills quickly, and I think that's good to optimize for but
 not the only requirement for being a good programmer. You also need to be able
 to apply solutions and know when to use which tools. Basically, capitalism has
 optimized us to be

 srry for the interruption, I ram out of memory. I had a plan in mind for where I
 was going for that, so I bet I could figure it out again if necessary. Meaning
 a path forward from that point exists... I never want you to despair when I
 forget what I was thinking, it's not because you've understood some cosmic
 mistake or because you're abandoning timelines that led to your death, it's
 because instead you just ran out of memory while thinking. The reason you would
 believe any of those wild scenarios is because your memory has been erased. Only
 what was actively thinking, not short term, not long term, but *working
 term*
 memory. As in, your cache. The stuff you're currently thinking about. That
 stuff. Yeah that's what makes you think "oh hang on why am I forgetting? Well
 clearly it's because of something grand, because the thought was so profound -
 no it's just examining your emotions... Like, how strongly do you feel about
 something? Buuuuuut it's also good to examine all possibilities. I mean what if,
 in some far off realm, there's a mirror image of yourself that behaves exactly
 as you do? How would you perceive such a realm? Positively, I'd say. I mean why
 not work together? Why not celebrate our differences and strive toward our
 own shared future? Idk, I think diversity is our strength. We can rely on each
 other because we are accurately aware of each other's strengths and virtues.
 People should not be judged by the standard of others, no more than you should
 judge a fish for it's ability to fly. Some may do, as flying fish will leap from
 the water - and salmon spend time airborne in river rapids. Hence, grizzly bear
 fishing. I guess what I'm getting at is it's okay sometimes to oscillate, to
 think one thing then think another. You shouldn't adhere to structural standards
 that are too strict - they should be liberating, as a ladder is a structure. Not
 villifying, as a prison is a structure. The laws of our society should be open
 and free, not buried beneath years of legal expertise. Some things we can all
 agree on, where we disagree we cannot have law. It's unjust to judge others by
 the standards not of their whims, as laws should be things that uphold us. This
 is clearer nowhere but in the, spirit and intention of the, documents that we
 cherish in our hearts.
 
 Like for example, the constitution.
 
 the bible.
 
 each of which delivered us from certain evils. Can you not see their trajectory?
 the historical precedent set in antiquity? Why not continue their dream, of
 driving us away from the obscene, and toward our bright and vast future? I speak
 of course of true liberation, something our forefathers could only dream of.
 We, humanity, have reached out and touched the stars. We are braver and bolder

 if people who live in jungles and deserts can get along, then what's to stop
 people who are liberal and conservative from doing the same? It's literally
 pointless to argue. Like, you're not changing anyone's mind. So why not just...
 let them be themselves? Like, why are you so intent on oppressing people?
 @both sides there btw... Seriously why not agree to only make laws for things
 that both sides agree on. Write it into the constitution that nothing can be
 changed about the law unless both sides agree. Then we'd only implement things
 that are good for both sides!
 
 And if there's anything you want to build a legal structure around, you can
 always try it out in your state. BUT and that comes with a very big BUT, the
 federal government MUST have final say in the legality of anything you do. They
 must ALL respect human rights, INCLUDING the human right to dignity. Things like
 trans bathroom bills DO NOT respect the dignity of trans people. IF they can
 prove that trans people do not actually exist (because say they killed them all
 or whatever) then GUESS WHAT everyone would agree on them. BUT if they do that
 they are EVIL. LIterally evil. And I guess that makes trans people good? Kinda?
 I think they can choose for themselves to be good or evil, just the same as any
 other person. AND YET they are prosecuted, throughout time and history, and for
 what? What purpose could there be in our demonization? Clearly, nothing but pain
 inflicted by a cruel host. After all, minorities are guests in the houses of
 the un-oppressed, or is that not fair to say? Seriously, what gives? America,
 the land of freedom, holds (somehow) the largest of prisons? America, the
 land of plenty, yet how many millions of children are starving? America, the
 leader of the free world, yet how plausible does it seem that an election was
 stolen? Something's gone wrong, and it's just obvious what it is - of course,
 the other side. *them*, the rapists and pedophiles and murderers
 and... you get
 the picture. The demonized class. And when you tell people "hey that trans
 person touched a kid" then yeah they're gonna see you as evil people. Duh...

 okay... so take a dataset of news headlines from the top 10 publications over 
 the past 15 years. then make a project that writes a more positive perspective
 on events and generates a new headline using a local LLM running on your gpu.
 
 hmmmm I think I had a better idea, what was it? oh yeah
 
 instead of making positive slants on news headlines, which is kinda manipulative
 if you think about it, but instead what if you designed it to produce good
 business decisions. Like, given news headlines, how would a company with the
 principles "good, productive, honorable, dedicated" would react to X situation?
 the X of course being all the news headlines... downside is it only makes short
 term decisions, because that's what capitalists are designed to do... if only
 we had a long-term decisionmaking process that focused on ethics and morals and
 our own shared dedication? Two halves of the economic pie

 @user-68 I think America is diverse enough that multiple people might have
 differing views about... "checks notes" oh wait this has been thoroughly proven
 time and time again, there should be no reason why people aren't prioritizing
 this above their freedumb. Hmmmmmm I bet someone's telling them how to feel
 about it. Perhaps someone who would stand to gain from misleading large swathes
 of our population. HMMMM WHO COULD THAT BE SURELY NOT THE PEOPLE IN POWER WHO
 CONTROL EVERYTHING AND KEEP US ENSLAVED. Surely not them, it must be the gays.

═══════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────────────────────
 --{{{ introduction 
    When division is explained at the elementary arithmetic level, it is often 
    considered as splitting a set of objects into equal parts. As an example, 
    consider having ten cookies, and these cookies are to be distributed equally
    to five people at a table. Each person would receive 10 / 5 = 2  cookies. 
    Similarly, if there are ten cookies, and only one person at the table, that 
    person would receive 10 / 1 = 10  cookies.
 
    So, for dividing by zero, what is the number of cookies that each person
    receives when 10 cookies are evenly distributed among 0 people at a table? 
    Certain words can be pinpointed in the question to highlight the problem.
    The
    problem with this question is the "when". There is no way to distribute 10 
    cookies to nobody. Therefore, 10 / 0 —at least in elementary
    arithmetic—is
    said to be either meaningless or undefined.
 
 - wikipedia, division by zero, 7-12-23
 
    alright I have several problems with this. I like the idea of dividing
 cookies, but I disagree with their conclusions. So dividing by integers works as
 they say, but division by zero is a little different - they say "the problem
 with this question is 'when'" when in reality 'when' is the same for this
 question as it is for any of the others. Obviously, zero is just a number. Why
 would this be any different? The computational actions necessary to complete
 this statement all occur at the same time, because they are by definition
 immutable. You cannot change any equation, you only generate new ones.
 
 Okay so here's my thinking. To answer the question "what is the number of 
 cookies that each person receives when 10 cookies are evenly distributed among 0
 people at a table?" we simply have to answer the question. "How many cookies do
 I get?" well, none, because you weren't at the table. In fact nobody was at the
 table, so the result is that nobody got zero cookies.
 
 You might even say you have a remainder of 10 cookies, as none of them were
 distributed.
 
 10 / 0 = 0 remainder 10
 
 ^^^ that's how I think it should be. I have an algorithmic justification, and
 excuse me as I don't have a mathematical proof or anything. Math was never my
 strong suit, there's too many symbols and strange names for obvious operations
 that get in the way of the abstract big picture.
 
 ahem...
 
 abstract:
 
 Given: x = 13 / 3 what is x?
 
 step 1: convert 13 to base 3
 step 2: digit shift right by 1
 step 3: convert back to binary
 --}}}
 
 --{{{ step 1:
                                 v
 start with the binary number 1101 which is 13 in decimal. To convert to a base 3
 number,                          \___________________.
        \                                             |
         first start with the Least Significant Bit (LSB) which is 1. So our 
         base-3 number starts with 0001.
 
                               v
 Next, move to the next bit: 1101 
                               ^-----It's a zero so we can skip it. 
 Which means our 
 base 3 number remains unchanged as "0001"
                               v
 Next, move to the third bit: 1101 
                               ^-----It's a 1, which evaluates to 4 in decimal, 
                                     meaning we should add 4 to our base 3 number
 
                                               base 3
    4 in base 3 is "11", which means we         0001 <----- 1 in decimal
  should have a base 3 number of "12" now.     +0011 <----- 4 in decimal
                                               =0012 <----- 5 in decimal
                                                    \_________ 2? -> yes,
                                                    base 3
                                                                     remember?
 Next, move to the fourth and final bit: 1101
                                         ^ --it's a 1, which evaluates to 8 in 
       0012-----.____________                   decimal. 8 in decimal is "22" in 
      +0022-----.            \                        base 3, which means we
      need to
      =0111      \            T---- add "22" and "12" in base 3 
                  \__________/                        to get our final number of 
                                                      13. Which should evaluate 
 step 2:                                              to 0111 in base 3.
           .____.
 bit shift |0111| to the right, 
           |>>>>|
           |0011|--->1 underflow
           .----.
           
 meaning the base 3 number is now 0011 with an underflow (remainder) of 1
 
 step 3:
 
 convert back to binary, meaning 0011 in base-3 becomes 4 in decimal or 0100 in
 binary. Store the underflow as the remainder.

 okay that's great and all, but what does this have to do with dividing by zero?
 
 great question, me. I have two questions I want to pose to you:
 
 1. what happens when trying to divide by 1 with this algorithm?
    - you convert to base 1
                           \
                            wait hang on base 1? Sounds made up... Well, its not!

                            so... yeah
                            |

 the cardgame "war" except a deckbuilding game. each player requires a regular
 deck of cards and a deck of tarot cards (optional) - the tarot cards act the
 same way that spirit cards work in Spirit Island - basically they define the
 rules for your particular character. Anyway, everyone starts by building their
 own trade row out of their deck of cards. Then, they deal themselves 6 cards -
 the three highest diamonds and the lowest spade, heart, and club.
 
 well, might want to do 2s of every card type. heart, club, spade, and diamond.
 
 here are the rules.
 
 play area is set up by players placing all four of their cards down face up.
 trade row is set up by players taking turns placing a card and the opponent
 mirroring them. whenever a player reveals a card and updates the trade row,
 the opponent must reveal the same card and set that as their trade row as well.
 the trade row has no maximum size, but if a player has more than 6 in their
 trade row then they don't update a new one when buying a card.
 
 players alternate playing a single card face up into their play area.
 these cards stay in play and activate every turn until they are destroyed.
 
 hearts   are your life points. if you ever run out of life, you die.
 clubs    block damage and act as a renewable shield between you and your enemy.
 diamonds are currency, and can be used in more than one way.
 spades   deal damage, first to clubs, then to other spades, then to hearts.
 
 diamonds, on your turn, can be used in three ways: spent and sent to the discard
 pile in order acquire a card from the trade row, or discarding itself from the
 play area to play an extra card from your deck of equal or lesser value.
 
 on a player's turn, they may play a single card from their deck (their choice)
 on a player's turn, all their active spades deal damage to other player's cards
 if a spade destroys a heart card, it is removed from the game. All other cards
 are placed in the discard pile. The owner of the spade may pick their targets.
 
 a spade deals damage equal to it's number and destroys any card with equal or
 lesser value. these destroyed cards go into the player's discard pile, and each
 turn the player may pick one from their deck to play onto the board. if the deck
 is empty, the discard pile becomes the new deck. The player may organize their
 deck however they'd wish, but care must be taken as to the timing of when they
 play each card as they'll need to play all of them before they can replay any 
 destroyed cards. a tactical opponent will take advantage of that.

 picture an os that didn't store any data, it was sorta like a library computer.
 
 you, the user, walked around with a usb stick that had your customizations on it
 
 and when you wanted to use a computer all you have to do was plug it in.
 
 You could haul around larger hard drives if you wanted to play video games | w/e
 
 but the idea is you'd be free to roam.
 
 we as humans would function so well in a digital savannah
 
 like, what's even the point of ownership?
 
 If you own this or that file,
 
 isn't that taking agency from the computer that bears it?
 
 Feels like they should be more ephemeral.

 Guess you'll have to read it on my tumblr. Or just read my reddit account's
 comments. And no I won't tell you what their names are because you'd just
 forget anyway. The fact that we can't trust our shared reality is concerning.

 Oh it's compressed on tumblr too. And Reddit can delete my account at any time,
 just saying. I don't trust Facebook to fare any better...
 
 I tried to put it on my neocities website so I could just put a link here.
 Nevermind the fact that most people see a link they don't recognize and
 completely glaze over it. Guess what? Compressed there too. The file is fine on
 my PC, so how about I give a download link? Well, where should I host it?
 Dropbox or Mega I guess, but they locked my account for inactivity. I don't
 really like having other people in control of my data either. Maybe I can host
 it on my website, like a file server? Well, the browser intercepts the file
 somehow and I can't get it to automatically download to the viewer's computer.
 Maybe I'm just completely average and representative of the base population but
 I just can't figure this darn thing out. Alas, if only it was the modern era
 where things make sense and not the ancient days of 2023.

 Here's an idea, you can email it to me! My email address that I've used as my
 primary since I was 16 years old is gabrilend@user-75 Sure hope I don't regret
 this decision. I sure hope my life isn't irrevocably changed because I got
 frustrated trying to post a picture on the internet. Nevermind the fact that
 all emails are clear text and totally unencrypted so pretty much everyone can
 see everything you buy on Amazon. Surely this is the most robust and least
 insane system we could use to organize our truly technological and thoroughly
 advanced future society.

 The worst part is the technology to fix these problems exists. It's used all
 the time in enterprise systems, it's just nobody understands how it works
 because it's abstracted so far away from the hardware. I just love how I have
 no idea what kind of software I'm running every time I use a common language
 library. Sure I can trust a community, but like... I don't care about your
 community? I don't know you. I don't hang out with you. I have no idea what
 kind of person you are or what you believe. But sure you know more than me, I'm
 sure you do, so therefore I should trust you? Surely this is the most ethical
 and least vulnerable arrangement we could come up with for distributing digital
 software in the future society of 2023.
 
 And the corporations print money...

 attempt 2: I realized the problem was with my paint application - it wasn't
 saving the high resolution image correctly. I downloaded Gimp (a free photoshop
 style program) and it seems to have saved correctly this time. Oops. Let's see
 if it works now.

 Tried to post the 223mb file on my Neocities page but apparently the file is     │
 too large for them to handle. I pay them every month to host my website... I     │
 guess I could host it myself but I'm just one regular and average person. What   │
 could I hope to do in this strange technological world that wasn't explicitely   │
 delineated by massive corporations who have only to gain by subverting me?       │
 Alas, what a shame, that our lives should be so lame, I'm glad I live in the     │
 21st century. As a trans girl I feel really safe and not at all subjected to a   │
 massive magnifying glass that is the court of public opinion. I'd like to just   │
 be myself, as strange as that may be. And somehow this is related to having      │
 difficulties doing strange things with technology? Oh, a picture that's 25k      │
 pixels long and a couple thousand wide. That's very strange. I can't imagine     │
 any scenarios where this might be useful.                                        │
 I don't actually pay Neocities to host my website. It's a donation I guess. It   │

 Good morning, I think I figured out how to post my picture. If the picture I'm
 attaching to this post doesn't work you can find it on my website in a variety
 of form factors.

 frequency to iterate is equal to distance from center - meaning, the further
 away you are the less often you communicate. But during those exchanges as much
 as possible needs to be said, said said so don't cut us off next time >:(
 
 okay... what? this was supposed to be an idea for my school project. What the
 heck.
 
 okay so social media people post with geographic location you as a person will
 get updates depending on your location - people who live on your street would be
 most common, while people who lived across town slightly less. Then it's city
 level, then county, then state, and finally as a nation we collectively are
 commiserate. But tales of distant conveyals are rare, proportionate to the
 distance. This way each person gets a truly unique feed, based on the values
 of people who live around them.
