### Hey dude, you're ignorant like a monkey, this topic XYZ you're analyzing has been academically examined and blablabla Friedrich Nietzsche, you're just reinventing the wheel, do you know that? Did you even read Plato before it was mainstream? Do you even lift bro?
I am 10 IQ stupid piece of crap and I am ignorant of a lot of shit, sometimes accidentally and sometimes not, I like to derive conclusions myself and I think there is value in reinventing the wheel sometimes. Standing on the shoulders of previous generations and taking things as proven is efficient and comfortable, often a good decision, but sometimes one that will lead to missing things that could have been -- take civilizations that developed independently of each other, how different they ended up to be, they didn't necessarily converge to being the same. How can we be sure our ways are the best just because we managed to wipe out other civilizations that lived differently? Maybe they were onto something. Trying to invent things again from scratch helps us test if where we're going is really the only way, or perhaps reveal there is a better way.

On one hand human languages are cool when viewed from cultural or [artistic](art.md) perspective, they allow us to write poetry, describe feelings and nature around us -- in this way they can be considered [beautiful](beauty.md). However from the perspective of others, e.g. programmers or historians, **human languages are a [nightmare](nightmare.md)**. There is unfortunately an **enormous, inherent curse connected to any human language**, both natural or constructed, that comes from its inevitably [fuzzy](fuzzy.md) nature stemming from fuzziness or real life concepts, it's the problem of **defining [semantics](semantics.md)** of words and constructs (no, Lojban doesn't solve this). [Syntax](syntax.md) (i.e. the rules that say which sentences are valid and which are not) doesn't pose such a problem, we can quite easily define what's grammatically correct or not (it's not as hard to write a program that checks gramatical correctness), it is semantics (i.e. meanings) that is extremely hard to grasp -- even in rigorous languages (such as mathematical notation or programming languages) semantics is a bit harder to define (quite often still relying on bits of human language), but while in a programming language we are essentially able to define quite EXACTLY what each construct means (e.g. `a + b` returns the sum of values *a* and *b*), in a natural language we are basically never able to do that, we can only ever form fuzzy connections between other fuzzy concepts and we can never have anything fixed.
Due to this fuzziness human languages inevitably change over time no matter how hard we try to counter this, any text written a few thousand years ago is nowadays very hard to understand -- not because the old languages aren't spoken anymore, but because the original meanings of specific words, phrases and constructs are distorted by time; when learning an old language we learn what each word meant by reading its translation to some modern word, but the modern word is always more or less different. Even if it's a very simple word such as "fish", our modern word for fish means a slightly different thing than let's say ancient Roman's word for fish because it had slightly different connotations such as potential references to other things: fish for example used to be the symbol of Christianity, nowadays people don't even commonly make this connection. Fishermen were a despised class of workers, to some fish may have signified food and abundance, to others something that "smells bad", to others something or someone who's "slippery". Some words may have referred to some contemporary "[meme](meme.md)" that's been long forgotten and if some text makes the reference, we won't understand it. The word "book" for example meant something a bit different 2000 years ago than it means now: back then a book might have been just a relatively short scroll, it was expensive and people didn't read books the same way as we do today, they commonly just read them out loud to others, so "reading a book" and the word "book" itself doesn't conjure the same picture in our heads as it did back then. Or another example showing the difference between languages existing at the same time is this: while the Spanish word "perro" translates to English as "dog", the meanings aren't the same; some English speakers use the word as a synonym for "friend" but in Spanish the word can be used as an insult so shouting "perro" and "dog" in the street may lead to different (possibly completely opposite) images popping up in the heads of those who hear it. Westerners who spend a lot of time in eastern countries will confirm that it is absolutely the case that many eastern spiritual terms and texts are untranslatable to English, or translatable only very, very imprecisely: there are words for concepts that western culture simply lacks and even words that have more or less direct translation may carry different connotations, such as the word "void" which in the east has often a positive connotation, unlike in the west. When you study philosophy, you'll be told you have to read philosophers in their original language in order to really understand them. Imagine you speak to an isolated bushmen tribe somewhere in Africa and you have to translate the word "vaporwave" or "doomer meme" when they don't have a word for Internet, computer or electricity, they don't know what depression, multimedia or technological addiction is and can't even comprehend the concept of a social network because they have hard time imagining there could exist many more people in the world, being unable to count beyond 10, thinking the world probably ends beyond the horizon -- you may perhaps say "vaporwave" is "funny music" and "doomer meme" is a "sad idea", but you know it's actually a very poor translation. It's not because their language was be poorer than yours (in fact many of such languages have been found to be extremely hard to learn), it will just have evolved to express other things, ones you can't understand, complex things about nature, jungle, hunting, hundreds of different plants, what's edible and what's poisonous (in which ways, to whom, with what certainty, in which quantities, under which circumstances, ...), subtle distinctions of many different species of animals, rocks, water, trees, fire, weather and so on. Even within our own culture we struggle to communicate, depressed people have hard time explaining what depression really is to people who never experienced true depression, we use words like "sadness", "emptiness", "exhaustion", but once again, only as rough approximations to the true, indescribable feeling.

How do you describe a word precisely if you can only describe it with other imprecise words that are changing constantly? No, not even pictures will help -- if you attach the picture of a cat to the word "cat", it's still not clear what it means -- does it stand for the picture of the cat or for the cat that's in the picture, does it stand ONLY for the one cat that's in the picture or all other animals that are similar to the one in the picture? How similar? Is lion a cat? Is a toy cat or cartoon cat a cat? Or does the picture signify that anything with a fur is a cat? If it looks like cat but walks on two legs and speaks, is it still a cat? Now imagine describing a more abstract term such as *thought*, *number* or *existence*. There is no solid ground, even such essential words as "to want" or "to be" have different meanings between languages ("to be" can stand for "to exist", "to be in a place", "to temporarily have some property", "to permanently have some property" etc.). Even dictionaries admit defeat and are happy with having circular definitions because there aren't any foundations to build upon, circular definitions are inevitable, dictionaries just help you connect fuzzy concepts together. All of this extends to tenses, moods, cases and everything else. This can be very well seen e.g. with people interpreting old texts such as the Bible, for example some say [Jesus](jesus.md) claimed to be the son of God while others reject it, saying that even if he stated the sentence, it actually wasn't meant literally as it was a commonly used phrase that meant something else -- these people will argue about everything and they can comfortably interpret the same text in completely opposite ways. The point is that we just can't know.

*Not to be [confused](often_confused.md) with [liberalism](liberalism.md).*
Libertarianism, also known as the *redneck ideology*, is a [harmful](harmful.md) political ideology whose definition is quite broad and not very clear, but which in essence gives highest priority to individual "liberty" and seeks to minimize the role of [state](state.md) (but typically without wanting to remove it). A bit like [anarchism](anarchism.md), libertarianism has many branches which frequently greatly diverge and even oppose each other, some are called more "leftist", some more "rightist" -- libertarianism usually tries to pretend to be focusing on the people, i.e. their "liberties", pseudoequality ("equality before law", "equality of opportunity", ...), oppose "the kind of corporate [capitalism](capitalism.md) we have today", believing some kind of "saner" version of it can work (which it can't), and claims that people can form a working, decentralized society by loose associations, however, unlike anarchism which opposes state and any kind of hierarchy altogether (with [true anarchism](anpac.md) also opposing any violence), libertarianism typically wants to preserve some functions of the state such as courts and justice for protection against crime, and it acknowledges property as a sacred thing that may even be defended by violence, i.e. libertarianism just replaces the rule of states by rule of private subjects, getting quite close to ["anarcho" capitalism](ancap.md), the stupidest idea yet conceived. Libertarians basically adopts the **"law of the jungle"** or **"wild west"** mindset. So it's [shit](shit.md), do not subscribe.

{ Some history of Linux can be read in the biography of Linus Torvalds called *Just For Fun*. ~drummyfish }
Linux was created by [Linus Torvalds](linus_torvalds.md). He started the project in 1991 as a university student. He read a book about operating system design and [Unix](unix.md) and became fascinated with it. Then when he bought a new no-name PC (4 MB RAM, 33 MHz CPU), he installed [Minix](minix.md) on it, a then-[proprietary](proprietary.md) [Unix-like](unix.md) operating system. He was frustrated about some features of Minix and started to write his own software such as terminal emulator, disk driver and [shell](shell.md), and he made it all [POSIX](posix.md) compliant.

Markov chain is a relatively simple [stochastic](stochastic.md) (working with probability) mathematical model for predicting or generating sequences of symbols. It can be used to describe some processes happening in the [real world](real_world.md) such as behavior of some animals, Brownian motion or structure of a language. In the world of programming Markov chains are pretty often used for generation of texts that look like some template text whose structure is learned by the Markov chain (Markov chains are one possible model used in [machine learning](machine_learning.md)). Chatbots are just one example.

There are different types of Markov chains. Here we will be focusing on discrete time Markov chains with finite state space as these are the ones practically always used in programming. They are also the simplest ones.

We can see a few things: the NPC can't immediately attack from cover, it has to search for a target first. It also can't throw two grenades in succession etc. Let's note that this model will now be yielding random sequences of actions such as [*cover*, *search*, *shoot*, *shoot*, *cover*] or [*cover*, *search*, *search*, *grenade*, *shoot*] but some of them may be less likely (for example shooting 3 bullets in a row has a probability of 0.1%) and some downright impossible (e.g. two grenades in a row). Notice a similarity to for example natural language: some words are more likely to be followed by some words than others (e.g. the word "number" is more likely to be followed by "one" than for example "cat").

# Triangle
Triangle is a three sided [polygon](polygon.md), one of the most basic [geometric](geometry.md) shapes. It is a [convex](convex.md) shape. Furthermore it is a 2-[simplex](simplex.md), i.e. the simplest ["shape composed of sides"](polytope.md) in [2 dimensions](2d.md). Triangles are very important, they for example help us to compute [distances](distance.md) or define functions like [sine](sin.md) and [cosine](cos.md) (see [trigonometry](trigonometry.md)).

@ -33,7 +33,7 @@ Some basic facts, features and equations regarding triangles are following (bewa
- general triangle: *a * altitude(a) / 2*
- right triangle: *a * b / 2*
- **[Pythagorean theorem](pythagorean_theorem.md)**: For the lengths of the sides of a RIGHT triangle (i.e. one angle is 90 degrees) it always holds that *a^2 + b^2 = c^2*. This is extremely important and can be used to determine unknown side lengths of right triangles.
- **[Thales's theorem](thales_theorem.md)**: if points *A*, *B* and *C* lie on a [circle](circle.md), then they form a right triangle with hypotenuse equal to the circle diameter (and the center of the circle lying in the middle of the hypotenuse).
- **[Thales's theorem](thales_theorem.md)**: Take a circle on which all points *A*, *B* and *C* lie; if the line *AB* is the circle's diameter, then the triangle is right triangle and *AB* is its hypotenuse.
- **Triangle inequality**: Sum of any two side lengths can't be greater than the length of the third side, i.e. *a + b <= c*. That means that e.g. a triangle with side lengths 1, 2 and 4 can't exist because 1 + 4 > 2. If one side of a triangle is exactly the sum of the other two, the triangle is called **degenerate**, its vertices lie on the same line and it is completely "squashed".
- **Law of sines**: *a / sin(alpha) = b / sin(beta) = c / sin(gamma)*
- **Law of cosines** (generalization of Pythagorean theorem to any triangle, not just right one): *a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2 * b * c * cos(alpha)*.
@ -41,7 +41,7 @@ Some basic facts, features and equations regarding triangles are following (bewa
- Every triangle has two special associated [circles](circle.md):
- **[incircle](incircle.md)**: circle inside the triangle which touches each of its sides at one point, its center (incenter) lies on the intersection of all angle bisectors.
- **[circumcircle](circumcircle.md)**: circle outside the triangle which touches each of its vertices, its center (circumcenter) lies on the perpendicular bisectors of each side.
- Triangle vertices always line in a single [plane](plane.md) (unlike other polygons).
- Triangle vertices always line in a single [plane](plane.md) -- it's pretty clear but good to realize e.g. in 3D graphics, every face in a triangle mesh will always have a clearly defined normal etc.
In non [Euclidean](euclidean.md) ("crazy") geometries triangles behave weird, for example we can draw a triangle with three right angles on a surface of a [sphere](sphere.md) (i.e. its angles add to more than 180 degrees). This fact can be exploited by inhabitants of a space (e.g. our [Universe](universe.md)) to find out if they in fact live in a non Euclidean space (and possibly determine the space's exact [curvature](curvature.md)).

**[Barycentric coordinates](barycentric_coords.md)** provide a [coordinate](coordinate.md) system that can address specific points inside any triangle -- these are used e.g. in [computer graphics](graphics.md) for [texturing](texture.md). The coordinates are three numbers that always add up to 1, e.g. [0.25, 0.25, 0.5]. The coordinates can be though of as ratios of areas of the three subtriangles the point creates. Points inside the triangle have all three numbers positive. E.g. the coordinates of the vertices *A*, *B* and *C* are [1, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0] and [0, 0, 1], and the coordinates of the triangle center are [1/3, 1/3, 1/3].
**Winding** of the triangle says whether the ordered vertices of the triangle go clockwise or counterclockwise. I.e. winding says whether if we were to go in the direction *A -> B -> C* we'd be going clockwise or counterclockwise around the triangle center. This is important e.g. for [backface culling](backface_culling.md) in computer graphics (determining which side of a triangle in 3D we are looking at). Determining of the winding of triangle can be derived from the sign of the z-component of the [cross product](cross_product.md) of the triangle's sides. For the lazy: compute *w = (y1 - y0) * (x2 - x1) - (x1 - x0) * (y2 - y1)*, if *w > 0* the points go clockwise, if *w < 0* the points go counterclockwise, otherwise (*w = 0*) the points lie on a line.

Zoomers (also *GenZ* or *technoslave*) are weird aliens that started to be born instead of real people from around late [1990s](90s.md), they come after [millenials](millenial.md), the last generation of true people to have appeared on [Earth](earth.md). Zoomers are very scary, like slenderman from creepypasta, basically robotic entities born from normal people, no longer having real emotion or normal taste, ability to see what looks good or bad or what's nice and what's degenerated, they are just born to hold a cellphone and [consume](consumerism.md) ads that appear on the display served by the [corporations](corporation.md). Usually they look like the mentioned slenderman: two to three meters tall -- due to having grown up in [21st century](21st_century.md) and only eating genetically modified chicken -- but extremely anorexic and wearing broccoli haircut, constantly looking down into the [smartphone](smartphone.md) which the zoomer's organism needs to survive; without smartphone a zoomer falls into coma and dies within 24 hours. Zoomers are absolute slaves to [technology](tech.md) (without knowing how it works), mental [illnesses](disease.md) (of which they must have at least 10) as well as sexual confusion -- zoomer has no idea what gender or even species he is, he thinks he is a [rabbit](furry.md) hermaphrodite or [transsexual](transsexual.md) fluid or afroamerican jewish spiderman or something, it would just be weird for him to be a normal man or [woman](woman.md). He also thinks only about [sex](sex.md) from the day he is born, he can't watch even a child fairytale without sexually analyzing every scene and painting [rule 34](rule34.md) scenarios in his head, he has addiction to masturbation, porn, [Internet](internet.md), [ads](marketing.md), food, [ricing](ricing.md), TikTok videos and basically just everything he comes to contact with. Zoomer chicks are practically just a walking ass with tiny head on top, they have trousers pulled up below armpits like Clint Eastwood, to showcase that gigantic ass (despite actually protesting sexualization of women).
Like you tune a [radio](radio.md) to specific stations, zoomer's brain is tuned on propaganda. He cannot live without consooming pixels from smartphone, so he has to eat Netflix, the poisoned adaptations of old works remade so that the characters are [LGBT](lgbt.md), black or otherwise crippled. He then accepts this as reality and says "acchuaelylly,,, the show isn't that bad". He then goes and starts making Netflix shows himself.
