Euler's number (not to be confused with [Euler number](euler_number.md)), or *e*, is an extremely important and one of the most fundamental [numbers](number.md) in [mathematics](math.md), approximately equal to 2.72, and is almost as famous as [pi](pi.md). It appears very often in mathematics and nature, it is the base of natural [logarithm](log.md), its digits after the decimal point go on forever without showing a simple pattern (just as those of [pi](pi.md)), and it has many more interesting properties.
|
||||
|
||||
It can be defined in several ways:
|
||||
|
||||
- Number *e* is such number for which a [function](function.md) *f(x) = e^x* (so called [exponential function](exp.md)) equals its own [derivative](derivative.md), i.e. *f(x) = f'(x)*.
|
||||
- Number *e* is a [limit](limit.md) of the infinite series 1/0! + 1/1! + 1/2! + 1/3! + ... (! signifies [factorial](factorial.md)). I.e. adding all these infinitely many numbers gives exactly *e*.
|
||||
- Number *e* is a number greater than 1 for which [integral](integration.md) of function 1/x from 1 to *e* equals 1.
|
||||
- Number *e* is the base of natural [logarithm](log.md), i.e. it is such number *e* for which *log(e,x) = area under the function's curve from 1 to x*.
|
||||
- ...
|
||||
|
||||
*e* to 100 decimal digits is:
|
||||
|
||||
2.7182818284590452353602874713526624977572470936999595749669676277240766303535475945713821785251664274...
|
||||
|
||||
*e* to 100 binary digits is:
|
||||
|
||||
10.101101111110000101010001011000101000101011101101001010100110101010111111011100010101100010000000100...
|
||||
|
||||
Just as [pi](pi.md), *e* is a [real](real.md) [transcendental](transcendental.md) number (it is not a root of any polynomial equation) which also means it is an [irrational](irrational.md) number (it cannot be expressed as a fraction of integers). It is also not known whether *e* is a [normal](normal_number.md) number, which would means its digits would contain all possible finite strings, but it is conjectured to be so.

# Gay

|

Homosexuality is a sexual orientation and disorder which makes individuals sexually attracted primarily to the same sex. A homosexual individual is called gay, homo or even faggot ([females](woman.md) are called lesbians). About 4% of people suffer from homosexuality.
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike e.g. [pedophilia](pedophilia.md) and probably also [bisexuality](bisexual.md), **pure homosexuality is NOT normal**, it is a disorder -- of course the meaning of the word disorder is highly debatable, but pure homosexuality is firstly pretty rare (being gay is as rare as e.g. having [IQ](iq.md) < 75), and secondly from the nature's point of view gay people wouldn't naturally reproduce, their condition is therefore equivalent to any other kind of sterility, which we most definitely would call a defect.
|
||||
For an unenlightened reader coming from the brainwashland: this article is not "offensive", it is just telling uncensored truth. Keep calm as we, [LRS](lrs.md), are not advocating any discrimination, on the contrary we advocate [absolute social equality](less_retarded_society.md) and love of all living beings. Your indoctrination has made you equate political incorrectness with oppression, to see the truth, you have to unlearn this -- see for example our [FAQ](faq.md).
|
||||
|
||||
Gay behavior is also usually pretty weird, male homos are very feminine and talk in high pitched voice, lesbians are masculine, have short pink hair, often also aggressive nature and identity crisis manifested by [tattoos](tattoo.md) etc. Most normal people naturally find this disgusting but are afraid to say it because of [political correctness](political_correctness.md) and fear of being [lynched](cancel_culture.md). You can usually safely tell someone's gay just from his body language and/or appearance. Gay people also more inclined towards [art](art.md) and other sex's activities, for example gay guys are often hair dressers or even ballet dancers.

|
||||
|
||||
Even though homosexuality is largely genetically determined, **it is also to a great extent a choice**, sometimes a choice that's not of the individual in question. Most people are actually [bisexual](bi.md) to a considerable degree, with a *preference* of certain sex. That is there is a certain probability in each individual of choosing one or the other sex for a sexual/life partner. However culture and social pressure can push these probabilities in either way. If a child grows up in a major influence of [YouTubers](youtube.md) and other celebrities that openly are gay, or promote gayness as something extremely cool and fashionable, if the culture constantly paints being homosexual as being more interesting and somehow "brave" and if the [competition](competition.md) of sexes fueled e.g. by the [feminist](feminism.md) propaganda paints the opposite sex as literal [Hitler](hitler.md), the child has a greater probability of (maybe involuntarily) choosing the gay side of his sexual personality.

|

There is a terrorist [fascist](fascism.md) organization called [LGBT](lgbt.md) aiming to make gay people superior to others, but more importantly to gain political power -- e.g. the [power over language](political_correctness.md).

Even though homosexuality is largely genetically determined, **it is also to a great extent a choice**, sometimes a choice that's not of the individual in question. Most people are actually [bisexual](bi.md) to a considerable degree, with a *preference* of certain sex. When horny, you'd fuck pretty much anything. Still there is a certain probability in each individual of choosing one or the other sex for a sexual/life partner. However culture and social pressure can push these probabilities in either way. If a child grows up in a major influence of [YouTubers](youtube.md) and other celebrities that openly are gay, or promote gayness as something extremely cool and fashionable, if all your role models are gay and your culture constantly paints being homosexual as being more interesting and somehow "brave" and if the [competition](competition.md) of sexes fueled e.g. by the [feminist](feminism.md) propaganda paints the opposite sex as literal [Hitler](hitler.md), the child has a greater probability of (maybe involuntarily) choosing the gay side of his sexual personality. This has certainly been happening in times when homosexuality was illegal, many gay people were forced to behave as heterosexuals and though many suffered, many have also lived quite OK and even happy lives -- nowadays the trend is opposite, being straight means being discriminated and society is forcing straight people to gayness.
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, [we](lrs.md) have nothing against gay people as we don't have anything against people with any other disorder -- **we love all people equally**. But we do have an issue with any kind of terrorist organization, so while we are okay with homosexuals, we are not okay with LGBT.

# Richard Stallman
|
||||
|
||||
The great doctor Richard Matthew Stallman (RMS, born 1953 in New York) is one of the biggest figures in software history, inventor of [free software](free_software.md), founder of the [GNU project](gnu.md), [free software foundation](fsf.md), a great [hacker](hacking.md) and the author of a famous text editor [emacs](emacs.md).

The great doctor Richard Matthew Stallman (RMS, also [GNU](gnu.md)/Stallman, born 1953 in New York) is one of the biggest figures in software [history](history.md), inventor of [free software](free_software.md), founder of the [GNU project](gnu.md), [Free Software Foundation](fsf.md), a great [hacker](hacking.md) and the author of a famous text editor [Emacs](emacs.md). He is a non-religious [Jew](jew.md), a man who firmly stands behind his beliefs and who's been advocating for ethics and user freedom in the computing world.
|
||||
|
||||
Stallman's life along with free software's history is documented by a free-licensed book named *Free as in Freedom: Richard Stallman's Crusade for Free Software* on which he collaborated. You can get it for free e.g. at [Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/5768). You should read this!

As [anarchists](anarchism.md) we of course despise the idea of worshiping people, creating heroes and cults of personalities, but the enormous historical significance of Stallman has to be stressed as a plain and simple fact. Even though in our days his name is overshadowed in the mainstream by rich businessman and creators of commercially successful technology and even though we ourselves disagree with Stallman on some points, in the future history may well see Stallman as perhaps the greatest man of the software era, and rightfully so. Stallman isn't a mere creator of a commercially successful software product, he is literally as important as the great philosophers of ancient Greece -- he brilliantly foresaw the course of history and quickly defined ethics needed for the new era of mass available programmable computers, and not only that, he also basically alone established this ethics as a standard IN SPITE of all the world's corporations fighting back. He is also extremely unique in not pursuing self interest, in TRULY living his own philosophy, dedicating his whole life to his cause and refusing to give in even partially. All of this is at much higher level than simply becoming successful and famous within the contemporary capitalist system, his life effort is pure, true and timeless, unlike things achieved by pieces of shit such as [Steve Jobs](steve_jobs.md).

*[ASCII art](ascii_art.md) of Richard Stallman*
|
||||
|
||||
Regarding [software](software.md) Stallman has for his whole life strongly and tirelessly promoted free software and [copyleft](copyleft.md) and has himself only used such software; he has always practiced what he preched and led the best example of how to live without [proprietary](proprietary.md) software. This is amazing. Nevertheless he isn't too concerned about [bloat](bloat.md) (judging by the GNU software and his own creation, [emacs](emacs.md)) and he also doesn't care that much about [free culture](free_culture.md) (some of his written works prohibit modification and his GNU project allows proprietary non-functional data). Sadly he has also shown signs of being a [type A fail](fail_ab.md) personality by writing about some kind of newspeak "*gender neutral language*" and by seeming to be caught in a [fight culture](fight_culture.md) (e.g. by supporting copyleft). Nevertheless he definitely can't be accused of populism as he basically tells what he considers to be the truth no matter what, and he is very consistent in this. Some of his unpopular opinions brought him a lot of trouble, e.g. the wrath of SJWs in 2019 for his criticism of the [pedo](pedophile.md) witch hunt.

He is a weird guy, having been recorded on video eating dirt from his feet before giving a lecture. In the book *Free as in Freedom* he admits he might be autistic. Nevertheless he's pretty smart, has magna cum laude degree in physics from Harvard, 10+ honorary doctorates, fluently speaks English, Spanish and French and a little bit of Indonesian and has many times proven his superior programming skills (even though he later stopped programming to fully work on promoting the FSF).
|
||||
[tl;dr](tldr.md): At 27 as an employee at [MIT](mit.md) AI labs Stallman had a bad experience when trying to fix a Xerox printer who's [proprietary](proprietary.md) software source code was made inaccessible; he also started spotting the betrayal of hacker principles by others who decided to write proprietary software -- he realized proprietary software was inherently wrong as it prevented studying, improvement and sharing of software and enable abuse of users. From 1982 he was involved in a "fight" against the Symbolics company that pushed aggressive proprietary software; he was rewriting their software from scratch to allow Lisp Machine users more freedom -- here he proved his superior programming skills as he was keeping up with the whole team of Symbolics programmers. By 1983 his frustration reached its peak and he announced his [GNU](gnu.md) project on the [Usenet](usenet.md) -- this was a project to create a completely [free as in freedom](free_software.md) [operating system](os.md), an alternative to the proprietary [Unix](unix.md) system that would offer its users freedom to use, study, modify and share the whole software, in the hacker spirit. He followed by publishing a manifesto and establishing the [Free Software Foundation](fsf.md). GNU and FSF popularized and standardized the term [free (as in freedom) software](free_software.md), [copyleft](copyleft.md) and free licensing, e.g. with the [GPL](gpl.md) license. In the 90s GNU adopted the [Linux](linux.md) operating system kernel and released a complete version of the GNU operating system -- these are nowadays known mostly as "Linux" [distros](distro.md). For the whole time Stallman has been traveling around the world and giving talks about free software and has earned his status of one of the most important people in software history.

Nevertheless he's pretty smart, has magna cum laude degree in [physics](physics.md) from Harvard, 10+ honorary doctorates, fluently speaks English, Spanish and French and a little bit of Indonesian and has many times proven his superior programming skills (even though he later stopped programming to fully work on promoting the FSF).

Stallman has a beautifully minimalist website http://www.stallman.org where he actively comments on current news and issues. He also made the famous free software song (well, only the lyrics, the melody is taken from a Bulgarian folk song Sadi Moma).
|
||||
|
||||
In 2019 Stallman was [cancelled](cancel_culture.md) by [SJW](sjw.md) fascists for merely commenting rationally on the topic of child sexuality following the Epstein scandal. He resigned from the position of president of the FSF but continues to support it.
|
||||
|
||||
Stallman has been critical of [capitalism](capitalism.md) though he probably isn't a hardcore anticapitalist (he's an [American](usa.md) after all). [Wikidata](wikidate.md) states he's a proponent of [alter-globalization](alter_globalization.md) (not completely against globalization in certain areas but not supporting the current form of it).

|
||||
|

In the book *Free As In Freedom* it is also mentioned that Stallman had aversion to passwords and secrecy in general -- at MIT he used the username RMS with the same password so that other people could easily log in through his account and access [ARPANET](arpanet.md) (the predecessor of [Internet](internet.md)). Indeed, we applaud this.

# Security
|
||||
|
||||
*"As passwords first appeared at the MIT AI Lab I decided to follow my belief that there should be no passwords... I don't believe it's desirable to have security on a computer."* -- [Richard Stallman](rms.md) (from the book *Free As In Freedom*)
|
||||
|
||||
Computer security (also cybersecurity) is the study of designing computer systems so as to make them hard to "attack", whatever the definition of "attack" means (usually accessing "sensitive" information or destabilizing the system itself). Recently security has become a lot concerned with ensuring digital "[privacy](privacy.md)".
|
||||
|
||||
**If you want security, the most basic thing to do is to disconnect from the [Internet](internet.md).**
|
||||
|
||||
**Security is in its essence an unnecessary [bullshit](bullshit.md)**. It shouldn't exist, the need for more security comes from the fact we live in a [shitty dystopia](capitalism.md). In a [good society](less_retarded_society.md) there would be no need for security and people could spend their time by solving real problems.
