 Anarchism is a [socialist](socialism.md) political philosophy rejecting any social hierarchy and oppression. **Anarchism doesn't mean without rules, but without rulers**; despite popular misconceptions anarchism is not [chaos](chaos.md) --  on the contrary, it strives for a stable, ideal society of equal people that live in peace. It means order without power. The symbols of anarchism include the letter A in a circle and a black flag that for different branches of anarchism is diagonally split from bottom left to top right and the top part is filled with a color specific for that branch.

 William "Bill" Gates (28.10.1955 -- TODO) is a [mass murderer and rapist](entrepreneur.md) (i.e. [capitalist](capitalism.md)) who established and led the terrorist organization [Micro$oft](microsoft.md).
 
 He is really dumb, only speaks one language and didn't even finish university. He also has no moral values, but that goes without saying for any rich businessman. He was owned pretty hard in [chess](chess.md) by Magnus Carlsen on some shitty TV show.

 In 1975 he founded [Micro$oft](microsoft.md), a [malware](malware.md) company named after his dick. By a sequence of extremely lucky events combined with a few dick moves by Bill the company then became successful: when around the year 1980 [IBM](ibm.md) was creating the [IBM PC](ibm_pc.md), they came to Bill because they needed an [operating system](os.md). He lied to them that he had one and sold them a license even though at the time he didn't have any OS (lol). After that he went to a programmer named Tim Paterson and basically stole (bought for some penny) his OS named QDOS and gave it to IBM, while still keeping ownership of the OS (he only sold IBM a license to use it, not exclusive rights for it). He basically fucked everyone for money and got away with it, the [American](usa.md) way. For this he is admired by Americans.

 When someone creates something that can even remotely be considered artistic expression (even such things as e.g. a mere collection of already existing things), they automatically gain copyright on it, without having to register it anywhere or let it be known anywhere. They then have practically full control over the work and can successfully sue anyone who basically just touches it in any way. Therefore **any code without a [free](free_software.md) license attached is implicitly fully owned by its creator** (so called "all rights reserved") and can't be used by anyone without permission. It is said that copyright can't apply to ideas, only to expressions of ideas, however that's [bullshit](bs.md), the line isn't clear and is arbitrarily drawn by judges; for example regarding stories in books it's been established that the story itself can be copyrighted, not just its expression (you can't rewrite the Harry Potter story in different words and start selling it).

-Floating point arithmetic (normally just *float*) is a method of computer representation of [fractional](rational_number.md) numbers, i.e. numbers with higher than [integer](integer.md) precision (such as 5.13), which is more complex than e.g. [fixed point](fixed_point.md).

 ## How It Works
 
-Floats represent numbers by representing two main parts: the *base* -- actual encoded digits, called **mantissa** (or significand etc.) -- and the position of the radix point. The position of radix point is called the **exponent** because mathematically the floating point works similarly to the scientific notation of extreme numbers that use exponentiation. For example instead of writing 0.0000123 scientists write 123 * 10^-7 -- here 123 would be the mantissa and -7 the exponent.
+The very basic idea is following: we have digits in memory and in addition we have a position of the radix point among these digits, i.e. both digits and position of the radix point can change. The fact that the radix point can move is reflected in the name *floating point*. In the end any number stored in float can be written with a finite number of digits with a radix point, e.g. 12.34. Notice that any such number can also always be written as a simple fraction of two integers (e.g. 12.34 = 1 * 10 + 2 * 1 + 3 * 1/10 + 4 * 1/100 = 617/50), i.e. any such number is always a rational number. This is why we say that floats represent fractional numbers and not true real numbers (real numbers such as [pi](pi.md), [e](e.md) or square root of 2 can only be approximated).

 Vim is generally known to be **"difficult to learn"** -- it is not because it is inherently difficult but rather for being very different from other editors -- it has no [GUI](gui.md) (even though it's still a screen-oriented [interactive](interactive.md) [TUI](tui.md)), it is keyboard-only and is operated via text commands rather than with a [mouse](mouse.md), it's also preferable to not even use arrow keys but rather [hjkl](hjkl.md) keys. There is even a [meme](meme.md) that says Vim is so difficult that just exiting it is a non-trivial task. People not acquainted with Vim aren't able to do it and if they accidentally open Vim they have to either Google how to close it or force kill the terminal [xD](xd.md) Of course it's not so difficult to do, it's a little bit different than in other software -- you have to press escape, then type `:q` and press enter (although depending on the situation this may not work, e.g. if you have multiple documents open and want to exit without saving you have to type `:wqa` etc.). The (sad) fact is that most [coding monkeys](coding.md) and "professional programmers" [nowadays](kids_these_days.md) choose some ugly [bloated](bloat.md) [IDE](ide.md) as their most important tool rather than investing two days into learning Vim, probably the best editor.

 - **[vi](vi.md)**: While you probably won't use the original ancient vi program but rather something like [nvi](nvi.md), vi is a [POSIX](posix.md) standard for a text editor that's much simpler and universal than Vim. It lacks many features one may be used to from Vim such as tabs, [autocompletion](autocomplete.md), [syntax highligh](syntax_highlight.md) or multiple [undos](undo.mf). But limiting yourself to only using the features specified by the standard makes you more likely to be able to operate any vi-like text editor you encounter. (List of features added by Vim to vi can be found in `runtime/doc/vi_diff.txt` in Vim source tree.)
 - **[neovim](neovim.md)**: Tries to be the "[modernized](modern.md)" ([refactored](refactoring.md)) fork of Vim, it removes some code, adds a new plugin system but also [bloat](bloat.md) like [CMake](cmake.md). One of its self-stated goals is to be more "community driven". It is also written in C99 (while Vim is in C89, more portable). { At least I think. ~drummyfish }

wavelet_transform.md

@@ -4,7 +4,7 @@
 
 Wavelet transform is a [mathematical](math.md) operation, similar to e.g. [Fourier transform](fourier_transform.md), that takes a [signal](signal_processing.md) (e.g. audio or an image) and outputs information about the [frequencies](frequency.md) contained in that signal AS WELL as the locations of those frequencies. This is of course extremely useful when we want to analyze and manipulate frequencies in our signal -- for example [JPEG 2000](jpeg_2000.md) uses wavelet transforms for [compressing](compression.md) images by discarding certain frequencies in them that our eyes are not so sensitive to.
 
-The main advantage over [Fourier transform](fourier_transform.md) (and similar transforms such as [cosine transform](cosine_transform.md)) is that wavelet transform shows us not only the frequencies, but ALSO their locations (i.e. for example time at which these frequencies come into play in an audio signal). This allows us for example to locate specific sounds in audio or apply compression only to certain parts of an image. While localizing frequencies is also possible with Fourier transform with tricks such as [spectrograms](spectrogram.md), wavelet transforms are a more elegant, natural and continuous way of doing so. Note that due to [Heisenberg's uncertainty principle](uncertainty_principle.md) is it mathematically IMPOSSIBLE to know both frequencies and their locations exactly, there always has to be a tradeoff -- the input signal itself tells us everything about location but nothing about frequencies, Fourier transform tells us everything about frequencies but nothing about their locations and wavelet transform is a **midway** between the two -- it tells us something about frequencies and their approximate locations.

 Of course there is always an inverse transform for a wavelet transform so we can transform the signal, then manipulate the frequencies and transform it back.
