the reason everything is defined in waves
is because without motion, nothing exists
it's all waves in a medium (space-time)
projected through time at the constantest
rate, at least as far as we can tell.
Through space just as well, as time (can
you tell), therefore you're teaching your
self. Time travel is simple, if you want
to be dimpled, but what's that whole

@user-195 parallel is when two programs run simultaneously, like two parallel
lines (threads) that never touch.
concurrent is when the two lines are split up into chunks and the program
switches between them - like this: -----_----
enter alternate universe
parallel is when two programs operate on the same axis - usually time - and
never interfere with each other. the OS will switch between them as
appropriate to make sure they never intersect. Sorta like this: -----_----
concurrent is when two programs are executed simultaneously, primarily
constituting computation correlated with collective contents of coordinated
collaboration between contextually related coroutines.
It's simple, even a beginner could figure it out.

Coding superpower:
Start thread
While(true):
Run();
Then, whenever you want it to run something else, change the function pointer
that run() uses to call a function
At the end of the run() function, set the function pointer in the while loop
to the next one. That way you don't stack overflow from the recursion.

your words to go back and edit them but also whatever you said was semi

@user-95 one of the most empathetic people I ever met on VR chat was consoling
me with their mic off while I was oversharing about some stupid things people
did to me in the past. things that stupid me thought were okay and actively
encouraged because I was stupid. anyway when their mic was off their body
language spoke for them. I'll try that next time.
