it's supposedly more encrypted or something. But, it's still a centralized

I went to a talk lately that was mostly about something else, but the speaker
came out with:
“If you only remember one thing from this talk, remember this. Everyone in
this room who likes helping people, raise your hand.”
Every hand, or nearly every hand, went up.
“If you like asking other people for help, keep your hand up.”
Almost every hand went back down.
“As you can see, people like helping you. When you ask for help, you’re
making them feel good, even if you don’t like asking.”
I’ve genuinely forgotten the rest of the presentation but I won’t forget
that.

No problem.
Start here, now, on mastodon.
Write a simple public message to someone here -- not me, please, i'm
well-supported -- whose output here improves your life.
Don't star. Don't boost. Tell them. Use your words, honey. A single

Takes one minute. Costs nothing. Risks nothing.
Just tell them.
To you, it's miniscule, useless, trivial.

be is wherever the project is, but the second best place is out on the streets
with an open mind.
if you feel defeated, take heart.
if you feel exhausted, take rest.
if you feel like working a job and coming home to a mess, take a day off to
clean. NOT to rest, you can rest the next day.

can't stop thinking about a visual programming editor that can be interacted
with in the same way that people are used to (think chromebooks dragging and
dropping icons in a web UI) but produces a text-file full of code and all the
required compilation scripts for any language the user requires...
seriously, programming is not THAT different between the different languages.
especially the main ones. they're all essentially variables and function calls
at the end of the day, so why not abstract away all the extra details and build
something that n00bz can actually use to build things.
I technically could make this but I don't have the bandwidth and I don't think
it's important really? who can say, the tools tend to co-create the solutions
in my experience.

it's okay to care about the project or about a certain subset of features and
yet still be totally un-invested in whatever lame feature people are requesting.
FOSS lives and breathes on passion, and people who attempt to arrest or
otherwise hinder or diminish the passion of the developers can suck a dick.
...
it's a fun experience and I think they'd learn a lot about what other people
like and how to please their partners, both in bed or in conversation.

found these pictures in my pictures directory from the start of the war in
Ukraine.
for context it was directed at the citizens of Ukraine by an American soldier
who wanted to help protect them from the ravages of war and fight back against
an oppressive regime invading their homeland.
idk if you'd ever find them useful but they're the kind of thing to put on a
hard drive and pray you never have to use or ever think about again.

look, if someone was going to intervene, they'd do so at the moment they deemed
most opportune.
this is reasonable.
I try to give people as many opportunities to act as I can, because it gives
them more time to choose reason.
I am completely convinced that my [side/ideals/truth] will be most ethically
consistent. That they make the most logical sense. That they are most aligned
to the reality of what people need to flourish as best as they can.
but it's not about me, so I don't show up.
I want everyone to be able to organize themselves as they want.
I think this is a form of anarchism, as it abolishes unjust hierarchies and
enables people to fully consent to any structures they might choose to
associate with.
this is called "freedom of association."
I also believe that everyone should get what they need. This does not refer
solely to "Mazlowe's Hierarchy of Needs", also known as the material needs
necessary for a persons life.
It must also include what a person needs to be effective, and to thrive.

I dedicate myself to a lifetime in the service of others.
what plagues people? primarily, capitalism. It is trivial to identify how their
problems are ultimately caused by the state, both institutions and corporations.
I dedicate myself toward finding alternatives and developing guides to reach
them.
the first step on ALL of these plans is to convince others of their benefit.
I am but one person. I might speak to a scant 300 in the course of a year.
Especially if I am ALSO trying to develop methodologies.
the people I live and work with have no interest in working with me. Yet still,
I spend my time on them because I love them.

It's funny, I've seen Andor season 1 twice now and the first time was when it
aired live.
It felt so much more invigorating to my soul the first time. I wondered why,
and I believe the reason is because it inspired me to go out and be brave as
fuck. People were terrified, I saw it in their faces. It felt like the scenes
on coruscant where everyone keeps their head down and looks around warily.
Now, things are fucking great outside. You can go on a walk and see people in
the park. I love that.
I guess it didn't hit me the same way the second time around because I made
progress on my "own personal revolution" (nemik to skene) and now the fear
feels distant.
Season 2 was pretty great. Gonna watch that again soon.

I never rest. Not mentally. I find it sooooo much harder to get moving again
once I'm asleep.
But I've been sleeping lately, because it's "good for me" or whatever. Because
I'm "burnt out and need to heal" or something.
Damnit why is it so much harder to stop snuggling someone than it is to pack up
a tent?
I'm like the guy in Hot Fuzz, that one really good movie about cops. oops cops
mentioned one second.
I'm always moving, but, I hardly ever seem to be able to get anything done. Why
is that? Is the work just... endless? Am I ever a slave to my surroundings? Or
am I just cursed with a mortal form, a form destined to toil in whatever way it
finds itself contextualized in?
Maybe I should just stop complaining. Maybe work is it's own reward or
whatever. I don't think I'm depressed anymore, although good luck getting me to
feel any emotions except focus, and the call to intercede on another's behalf.
I don't have time for this. >.

why is it cumbersome literally just, let me download the source-code repository
to someone's computer and let them compile it themselves without even thinking
about it
"you mean like, package manager hooks into a website?"
yes, but, instead of implemented one-by-one, it should use a protocol so each
package manager only has to implement the downloading scheme once and it'd be
able to read from any locations that output the correct API calls or whatever.
the developer could even do it themselves. such is the joy of open-source

all revolutions have a cost.
for example, in Andor Season 2 there is a character named Syril Karn. He's part
of the first Imperial generation of children (human, at least, some species
probably grow fast?)
this first generation reflects the good and the bad that the empire could be.
There are aspects of good AND bad in Syril.
For example, his rigid adherence to truth, justice, and all the other things he
holds dear are POTENTIAL good things that the Empire could have instilled
within it's culture. Unfortunately, this spirit is lost when he suffers a head
injury and dies as part of the Ghorman massacre.
Dedra Meero has some good qualities as well, such as her unflinching resolve
and unwavering dedication to pursuing her charge. She's a hunter. Cats aren't
evil just because they are ambush predators, and neither is she.
However, she IS evil because of all the evil things she does.
Her character isn't evil, her actions are.
She too is spiritually lost as a sacrifice to the Empire.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────
Algorism is a system designed to work for any level of organization. It scales.
It accomplishes this by abstracting individual needs into communal needs at a
certain level of size or complexity, and in doing so it enables people to take
responsibility both for their individual lives, but also the lives of the world
around them. This increased level of "stake" that people "hold" in their lives
will encourage them to develop their surroundings in a healthier way, thus
leading to a safer, saner, and more productive society for all.
How is this accomplished? There are many aspects to Algorism, and this note is
an examination of one particular facet - specifically, the requisition system
which delivers goods and services to entities larger than a single individual.
It may be best illustrated with an example. Consider a neighborhood - or, even
simpler, a suburban street, lined with houses. There may be 20-50 families on
that street, depending on it's length, so let's say there's around 30. These
families hold a common cause together - they all want their surroundings to be
generally pretty nice, clean, and decent. They may share many other things
besides, but these are things that most people can agree on.
These 30 families need supplies and infrastructure in order to have a good life
lived in their small little "town". Some common ideas for unification activities
include knocking down the backyard fences and letting them relish the shared
safe space for children, gardens, and nature. This is an example of a cultural
method for building a "good life" for them, however they need to have some sort
of "economic" method of good-life-building as well. The reason I say this is
because no matter what level of complexity you reach, there are always economics
involved, for an individual distributing blood cells to each of it's fingertips
all the way up to families sharing the food on the serving plate at dinner. Go
up higher and you have perhaps neighborhoods sharing commonly used tools or
resources, then cities and states and countries sharing people, talents, and
brotherhood.
Economics are a symptom of systems, not power. Power is coercive, it compels
others to obey thine will or else face retribution, but systems do not require
power in order to function. A system could be as simple as "you scratch my back
I scratch yours", which is a simple way that our ancestors learned about basic
cooperation. Systems can scale of course, and they need not be comprised solely
of verbal, mental, or legal agreements - computer systems, economic systems,
spiritual systems, systems of math or physics, all of these things are based on
the philosophical discipline known as "logic". Logic is fallible of course, it
is certainly possible to create systems of logic which are completely unsound
or invalid and which fall apart upon being used for the first time. However,
when considered with a scrutinous eye for detail, and referenced to the results
of the real world and it's endless permutations, logic can be an excellent tool
for developing organization and structure. Both of which are invaluable for all
humans when they seek to cooperate or coordinate.
If thirty people who lived near each other wanted to cooperate or coordinate on
the goal of "building a good life", they might reach for a logical method of
developing their surroundings toward how they feel is most suited to their needs
and demands. In order to do so, they'll need supply and infrastructure. The
question of acquiring such supply and infrastructure is ultimately up to them,
but the Algorist way of doing so is to utilize the queue system.
This system is related to queues as typically understood only in name and in
technicality, for the additional structures built on-top of the queues are more
than sufficient to differentiate it. When you, dear reader, hear the idea that
you'd have to wait in line in order to get your food at the cafeteria, you may
shudder and think about how you'd prefer anything else. After all, that's how
they did it in the Soviet Union, and there are plenty of horror stories about
how it took 10 years to buy a car, or how the factories were graded based on
weight so they'd sneak lead into all their lamps or whatever in order to seem
like they were doing well. They gamed the system, in a word.
However, America in 2025 is not as simple as the USSR in the mid-1900s. We have
computers now. We do not need to coordinate using paper and pencil. This enables
us to create things like web-UIs for Amazon, a world-wide distribution network,
or to build SQL databases full of every record we could imagine and store it on
a computer the size of a brick. There is no end to the power that computers may
bring to us, but with great power comes great responsibility, and the pragmatic
programmer will work tirelessly to reduce complexity of scale.
A queue is a system where the entities who are to be served, delivered, or
otherwise operated on are placed in line, and those which are placed first are
focused on with priority over those that entered the queue later. There are
many types of queues but this is the one we will use for this note. Using this
basic definition, we can see that there are many opportunities to implement
additional mechanics

Sometimes people convince themselves that they are a just and honest person,
when they actually aren't.
Usually how this works is that they live their life as normal, and when their
desires conflict with another persons, they'll relent and agree with the other
person without voicing their concerns.
Then, when it's time for the other 50% of the time when they get what THEY
want, they become stubborn and willful and resentful if they are contested.
It's always a struggle. It's always a battle. Why can't we just all get along?
Oh yeah, because some people don't tell you when they disagree.

the reason to know sign language is that you can communicate without making
listeners aware.
double-band communication is useful for all sorts of mediums, just make sure
you erase every track of pencil tracks.
every bit of intelligence matters, but if you force them to double their
requirements, it makes it un-trivially harder to counterinvestimanage.
[what are you talking about "THE" reason, the reason is to talk to deaf people,
dummy!]
(no dumb people are the ones who can't talk) (edit: and clearly I'm speaking,
which means I gotta be smart, don't I?)
[that's actually really rude, you shouldn't say dumb because of the double
meaning. It also means "lacking intelligence" which is not necessarily
correlated to the disability in question. Therefore, the term is a term of hate
or resentment, and thus should not be used unless you have genuine reason to
inflict rudeness.]
(there are no genuine reasons.)
(therefore the term is completely impermissable.)

everyone's like "we need to organize! we gotta do something!" and they're
asking for more effort.
we don't need more effort. We have enough effort. The required effort is a
small fraction of our total reserves of effort.
what we need is to re-align our priorities.
For example, I think our entire research industry should focus on one project
at a time. Everyone should make an effort to contribute, no matter the field. I
think this would enable some EXCELLENT co-ordi-operat-ion.
I also believe that our neighborhoods should self-support each other. "For
example, did you know that we have a daily delivery service where so-and-so
drives to the grocery store, picks up everyone's orders, and then delivers to
your front door? No, you don't have to pay for it. We don't really do that
anymore. Well, you can buy things wherever if you want, but that's not how it's
done around here." sorta vibes.
what is money? money is the product of peacetime. Money is fake! It's useful if
everyone agrees, but dollars are paper.

dependencies would be fuckloads easier if applications put their files in
standard locations. actually it's better if they are at abstract locations -
meaning it can be user defined for each file.
then, have some "sensible default" setting the user can configure which says
"if an application wants to store a, say, config file, where would it put it?"
and you'd say "oh in the ~/configs directory" then the install wizard would say
"yes yes very good, and now where should I store user interface templates?"
then the user is like... "wat" because they don't know how the software works
yet.
this solves 90% of all software dependency issues because all you have to do is
keep a file with all the directories for each program. then, search through the
file every time you need a dependency connection.

the present is capable of saving the future.
you'd know if it weren't true.
even then you'd be deceiving yourself,
because nobody can know it to be true.
if it were known to be true,
it would have to become struggle.

infantry with small arms fire to pin down a target at a location while the
long-ranged ordinance is along the way
explosive drones, long-range but small payload rockets, but probably not
artillery since it must be precisely applied when infantry are engaged.
the dumber the fire, the less precise the munition. usually.
infantry under this doctrine would only be ideal to use when the location is
reachable by long-range ordinance.

every renewal has loss. it's okay.
if people start going to camps, then you won't have any debt anymore because
you'll be fighting the people who are sending people to camps. And I don't
necessarily mean throwing metal at them directly, only a small group of people
need to do that. Rather, your voice, your presence, your diligence, and your
spirit will flavor the nature of the new world to come.
Have heart, for the ones who need you will rest easier if you're strong in your
heart and compassionate in your convictions.
The climate is in peril, but it's not destroyed. We will regenerate it. We have
the technology, we must simply cast off our chains so that we may apply it.
... Simple, but not easy.
It will never get done otherwise, which is why it will happen. Because it must
get done, so we will make it happen. Humans trend toward procrastination but I
promise, we'll make it work.

The yard right now, as it is, is the most beautiful lawn I've ever had. But i
lay no claim to it, it's not mine or my own. Still, i love it, so i advocate
for it when i can.
It feels wrong that you so ardently argue for its destruction when you haven't
taken any time to get to know it. You hide from it and refuse to trust that its
possible to enjoy it. Do you ever just sit around in it? The summer is perfect
weather for shade gazing.
Also,
The fact that you've weaponized your emotions against me to get what you want
kinda hurts because i have made no attempt to claim it as my property that i
control and wield. It feels like manipulation. Like you wanted to fight me,
wanted to hurt me, and the yard is just how it gets done.
Every time we have ever talked about it, I've argued my point friendly and
tried to problem solve. All I've received is spite and shutdown in return, and
i am perplexed as to how i could be better.
It feels like you don't respect me, or treat me as an equal, and that any
concerns i have are just creating drama.
But my feelings are constantly hurt, when all I've done is try to be kind to
you.
I wonder if it's because you're paying to be here, both with labor and dollars,
and i am housed without a home?
I love it here. I am loved here. Why could it not be home?
I want to show you all that yards can be, especially since we have two of them
and can use them for different purposes.
I closed the blinds in my room so that you can hang out back there without
worrying about being seen. I'd only notice if i walked out the screen door.
Again, problem solving.

tomorrow is a day for being patriotic, which is why I celebrated today. I feel
like a nation must earn it's renown, and lately all I've felt is afraid. They
aren't doing their jobs properly, and therefore fear is in our midst. In fact,
some would argue that we've been divided into separate categories and urged to
fight our discourage the other parts of the proletariate.
by the way, you shouldn't talk to anyone about anything, because it is 100%
impossible to know who is a cop.
they've had like... however many years to develop a separate group of people
(the rich and/or powerful) and the people (of colors and nations) who simply
just... spies on the other, and records anything that they can.
indeed, the best way to encourage spreading of expertise and information
(collectivism) is to reward people for their retention of rare items. Such as
memory vaults that everyone else has forgotten.
so long as data is free, people may be able to build their own store-net.

Yes, it's true, that if we can't trust the political victors, then we can't
trust that we all [deserved to be used, but pronounced like deserved to get
food]
but we can't trust our political victors, because of simple facts.
Last summer the conservative majority supreme court removed several
restrictions on the exectutive branch - essentially giving the political
victors the ability to rule with more authority than a despotic monarchy.
This summer they are maximizing their armed forces (ICE, not the military,
which will soon be dissolved)
Next summer they will claim you. What do you do this summer, with the consent
of the army, navy, and air force?

what matters is that you are understood, not that your words fully describe.

as you agree on the specific conclusions, meaning can be flexible. this allows
for moments of insight, as you make decisions on the other's character rather
than their vocation or talents.

it's only our words that keep us
confined to our lights and our lonely
yet there and beyond her lights do belong

where we keep our silence to ward us
but there and beyond her heart does move on
free from her moments of longing

as terror has come for our moments
I think I'd find her
that cherished belonging
when she does at last come to warn us
how little we find of we find of thoughts from her mind
yet now we are kings of our own time

"stack overflow" just means "oops I ran out of ram"
ram is just how much you can keep in your working memory at one time.
like, multitasking, where you have to keep track of juggling several balls or
plates.
if things are too easy, it's normal to get bored.
if things are too hard, collapse at your leisure.
"stack overflow" is just when the things that I'm building correlations and
implication charts of in my mind are too large and require too much affection
to explain for my regular human sized brain and I drop one of the balls and go
grab and fix it, or drop one of the plates and feel sorrow forevermore. yep,
right in the trash bin. along with everything else.
damn... there was hundreds of thousands of jewels of hoard there. if only I
could displace that bit of space... I bet she'd find it once more.
cursed artifacts be like
"stack was large enough to contain the flow" is just when the provided space
was just enough space. which is rare, because most thoughts reverse all over
the place.
"easy"

respects both people. this tends to make people mad because its like "bro

and I'm like "I'm with you" and they're like "stop infiltrating" and I'm like
"who's infiltrated?" and they say "stop talking to the internet" and I say
"nobody reads me anyway" and they say "screensho0ts are forever" and I'm like
"I'm pretty as can be"

all they have to do is only record when you're not in the room (or why not just

they like.
people tend to trust the implications of other's opinions of someone. does
everyone hate you? hardly. they just want you gone.
fuck that, I'd only leave if it meant the end of our friendship.
not ideal.
all they have to do is hate you and work against you and never tell you and act
as if you're fine but secretly behind your back plot against you and then it's
EASY to dethrone you.
no thank you.
if you don't want me, then leave me alone. what's more moments of lonely? I am
suited to it.
fight me. contest me. say it to my face.
I don't respect any opinion otherwise of me.
I will act as if you've presented me the truth. ALWAYS. this is what it means
to be trusting.
But I'm not unawares, I can hear when you speak through your stares. Your face
is more than enough language.

royalty is not not royalty just because they're ineligible. democracy is better
for picking rulers! how many do you have in your mind?
[I thought you were an anarchist]
I am. the presence of rulers does not necessarily violate the implicit
sovereignce of consent, and it's necessary presence for rulership.
"no gods no kings no masters" means an end to coercive work.
coercion is unethical because it violates consent. This is implicit in the
definition of coercion.
violating consent for those who give you power is a lesson I learned very
young, when I made a mistake and harmed my brother's mother's sisters's son's
daughter.
"no gods no kings no masters"
means an end to unconsentual work.
why would you live in a village where everyone is the same as you? talk about
boring
I wish I could hear you when you talk about me.
"girl are you racing? in capitalism? why bother with a [endless/impossible]
game? you're better than judging people's worth objectively. [what do they mean

part of being family with someone is being part of their lives.
what if like... a whole group of people was your family?

I'm not here to make moments. I'm trying to get through day-to-day.

people just don't care about other people's troubles and trials.
scary... I'm here to do my part, accomplish my duty, and help wherever I can.
I'll agree to anything if you tell me the whole strategy and it aligns with my

if you doubt those goals, I can surely help thee remember.
everything is logically rooted in love,
nothing's out of place or a mystery.

learn true was the truth. I realized that some information isn't necessary to

A true leftist spot would have every age-range represented.
Many other spots may have every age-range represented, but a leftist spot must
too.
The adults in the room may have more to say when every age-range is
represented, because they suddenly are speaking beyond their social peers.
How better to contest existential fears than to unite all of existence against
them?
All they have to do is deport all the nice people to gaza and suddenly evil
wins.
Disarmament fundamentally does not work. the weapons develop souls for it, and
suddenly they are artwork.
there is evil inside all of us. It is always a lever we could pull. But
fundamentally, we don't. Why is this? Because kindness works better. It
sincerely does. But darkness is something to stumble into, before you've
learned or are first exposed to it. It is something that is possible, and so is
something that is avoidable. Otherwise, it'd be inevitable, and its not. Never
is it farther from you than when you are with hope. This is the crux of
despair, the dichotomy with hope. Upon it all our struggles are brought to
bear, and so our determined are unbeatable. Paladin code, Vavadane, part 3

one day, a man came to our saloon. He said he knew the navy, and that they
wanted to provide air support
in the form of rocketball-launched explosion doohickeys. Would you have a foe

what happens when tomorrow you're cooking briskets? -- barbeques are a type of
relaxation
that happened just one day to a port-sided town that suddenly was the capital of
an embassy.
"hey, so... how's it goin?" "quick here take this envelope, read it if you want,
but just hold onto it for now I don't have enough hands [to carry]" "what sort
of desperation plot... wait... hang on, I see something here that is true."

how insane

channeling dark magics, and at this hour? what sort of skeptic of belief are you
thinking of when you think about me?
one way to get power is to "prove it"
one way to get magic is to "prove it"
think, hard, at all that you can, and use what you need in the moment.
that's all there is to life. it's easy. it's simple. in fact, biology only works
because the choices available to a bacteria are so simple, they are essentially
chemical reactions to each other's co - sequent - inter - cooper - actions.
people's choices are much more naiive, "I want this thing" "I think this is
better" "I feel this way toward this thing" "Here's what's on the mind-logbook"
"people search and be decieved, this is the way of things" "this makes me remind
myself of a object I once saw, here's how it functioned" "no one reads this"
scaryyyy. so glad it's not true.
a couple people have read it! I swear it's true. at least, some of it. there's
a lot
sucks because this feels like... crucial? like nothing else matters but this?
what if our gangs had rocket launchers and airstrikes, given out by a central
authority who knows logistics better than anything
what... would they do?
thinking of impossiblities is the first step toward possibilities
frankly, we have a lot of space. we could just... live in our own petty kingdoms
ruled by an iron-hand-fist. I know I'm a good person, I could definitely rule.
that's all it takes, right?
how much space are we talkin'?
however much is not needed for wildlife.
[a whole heck of a lot then]
we are constrained in these suburb cities, the density gives rise to our
strength and our towers. there's more space, sure, especially once the fences
are downed. Just be careful because there's a lot of shade and precious spots
there. Please don't trample on the plants-grass.
what if everyone were just a bit more mobile?
what if we could live in our own collectively owned air-bnb-networks?
federations, free, all from the collectivization of housing.

if your game takes too long to load, longer than like... 5 seconds, then it's
got to work on asset-pipelining. Sometimes, even graphical design. But mostly
it's resolving technical debt. Why is it debt? because it makes it run slower,
not less correct. Meaning it's something you don't have to deal with until you
have to deal with it. Later on down the road. BUT if you reach the end of the
road (product launch) and you're still carrying debt... you're gonna go under,
it's just a question of when. Why would you not sponsor innovation? An
institutional corporation would prioritize developing new hopes. Hence, epcot
in the 90s, with it's focus on utopianism and celebration of worth.

@user-1865 She didn't deserve a lot of cruelty she received.
She was a wonderful person, who just couldn't stop talking, never sat still,
yelled sometimes and was scared of everything but tried anyway.
Needed several medications just to sleep or she'd go crazy.
I am exactly like her, I just found out what was really going on with my body
and brain.
She never got that chance, and things got awful after this.
I feel like that was when her soul died, and I've missed her since.

Capitalism is a prison.
It is a prison that keeps us controlled by the private oligarchs who own what
we need to survive.
And it's also impossible to break out of it. The prison spans the entirety of
the habitable world. The only way out is to eventually destroy it entirely from
the inside.

Simple things to do to reform or blunt the pain of capitalism if you are a
mayor, governor, or other body with political power:
1. Pay people for their commutes. Demand that jobs offer payment to people for
getting to the workplace, and don't let them work you more than 8 hours
(including commute) unless you're given overtime pay. But do let them
discriminate based on how far away you live. That's okay because it directly
financially affects them and is therefore a strategic decision. Plus, you can
move closer maybe.
2. Consider closing car lanes and adding bike lanes. Depending on the location,
this can do wonders for city enrichment.
3. Universal basic income, just to give people breathing room.
4. Give people 10$ for showing up at a park every week on Sunday or whatever.
Encourage them to hang around and talk to people.
5. Build a fediverse instance for the neighborhood/city/state/country and give
everyone a unified account on all of them. Don't let them browse other regions,
but if they have friends elsewhere they should be able to see what they say.
6. Put your laws or code or whatever legal or political documents you use into
a git repository, and include the full change-log as commits with the date
either simulated, or added as a comment at the top or something.
7. Bolster small business and charge scaling taxes of any kind to large
businesses. Encourage economies of scale to utilize their scale to lower
production costs in order to sell more product rather than sell the same
product and enrich their owners.
8. Subsidize or sponsor people to make in-home workshops and gardens. Develop
ways for them to sell their wares with minimal effort - trucks that drive by
and pick up standardized packages with price-tags and take them to a central
market?
9. Build infrastructure that hosts a website for every address. Let the current
occupants do whatever they want with it.
10. Grow plants. Brb my water is boiling

I love densely nested loops because it lets you build a more complete visual of
the data structure .
sometimes, pointers are enough, for example if you forgot that "fingers" were
filed under "appendages" instead of "joints" then you'd still be able to find
it by just following the quickshortcut to find it.
but other times, it's helpful to have the structure of the data represent your
data instead of having values stored on the struct itself.
and other times, it makes sense to wrap the for loop [each of them] into a
function that just... processes a thing into another thing
depends on your pipelining workflow I guess.

the reason I hide and sleep so much is because I can't tell if I'm helping or

plus, I sincerely do NOT want it to be about me.
the reason I type so much is because I can't tell if what I'm saying needs to

so I go with the safe option of typing. Let the editors figure it out. Jesus
had disciples, didn't he? I bet they cut out most of his sermons or whatever.
Idk, I never read the bible, I'm not allowed to taint my perspective with more

8923025/Left-Wing Group Too Disorganized For FBI Agents To Infiltrate
NEW YORK—Admitting that they had been working for several years without any
discernible success, FBI agents confirmed Wednesday that a local left-wing
political group was too disorganized to infiltrate. “We’ve had a few guys
in there posing as members and trying to manipulate them into committing acts
of violence we can arrest them for, but these people don’t ever do anything
violent—they don’t ever do anything at all,” an undercover FBI agent told
reporters, adding that the agency believed they’d made headway with turning
the leader of the Liberation Socialists group into an informant until the guy
didn’t show up to a meeting for months.
“These people are incredibly disorganized. We try to attend their meetings to
get them to unwittingly work on our behalf, but half the time no one shows up
but the undercover agents, and the other half of the time the meetings are so
confusing it’s impossible to follow what they’re actually trying to do. We
also tried to sow division in their ranks to ensure that they couldn’t become
powerful, but that didn’t work because these people already all fucking hate
each other. They spend all their time arguing about minutiae, and most of the
time when we try to talk them into doing something violent to the communal
spaces in their community, they don’t even know where to go. They’re just a
mess.” The FBI agent added that he was worried the left-wing organization was
on to him, as he’d already aroused suspicion by interrupting a meandering
discussion of principles with a straightforward plan of action.

elentalus 2 - clan of the elements
having spent their material wealth on their early struggles, elentalus now in
the middle age finds themselves in a time without wealth. Their power has been
invested, wisely, in elemental and sorcerous wellwinds, and so they can draw
power from the strength of the earth.
they wield magical artifacts of great power but little artifice, products of
their lack of material design tools. No chemistry, no electronics, nothing but
soul imprinted upon a moonstonerock.
mages invest their soul into the items they create, and so each time they create
a magical item, they lose a magic path. When they reach zero, their soul is
fully invested, and their consciousness becomes all the things that they made.
this kill the mage, but in return many MANY more of an object might be created.
in game balance terms, about 3-5-7 for each "tier" of mage.
this allows for the vast expansion of magical soldier troops, and each time an
item is created and given to each commander they integrate it into their
platoon. Because now the martial units have bodyguards, and they each receive a
copy of the commanders equipment.
But, the commander can never un-equip it again, because it molds to his unit,
and he starts exp all over again as they all learn. [event which searches for a
unit with the item equipped, then if it's this type it killmons the unit and
1coms the upgraded version that has that item equipped.] be sure to only equip
one each month... nah just make multiple events. be sure to only equip one item
each month... oh yeah true how would you get the extra items back to the
treasury?
I REALLY WANNA PLAY WORLD OF HEARTHSTONE!
okay okay I'll reinstall azerothcore

game idea:
factorio clone except it's actually an IDE
double click a "factory" building and you can open up a script window. Just
enough room for a function or three, don't go off-screen...
then, draw as many conveyor belts as you want. They have to be conveyors, and
they can only dive under [num_belt_passthrough] other conveyor belts at a time.
By forcing the player to structure their code linearly and laterally, they can
see it with a more comprehensive [scope, but pronounced hope].

"so wait, she's just not a believer in the rent-economy?" nope I think rent is
too large of a portion of a person's budget, it prevents them from spending on
things that would enable them.
if landlords are too plentiful, their overall share will decrease. This has
been practiced over the ages and the truth always winds up on the streets.
homeless people often have just run away from home, with nothing but what they
carried.
cities should have private fountains in addition to public ones. With at least
10 ft of pathway to each one. [I recommend closer to 20] they should have
plants and glasses and stone and soil deposi[caches, but pronounched "stashes"]

I posted my words text file all over the c it y today. not sure why. maybe I'm
tired of this course and I don't want to let anyone down? Maybe I don't know
what to do yet. Maybe nobody works with me because everyone's keeping it on the
DL or whateverr?
... anyway enough typing, I'm going to go play a video game. like god intended.
