App is a retarded [capitalist](capitalist_software.md) name for [application](application.md); it is used by [soydevs](soydev.md), corporations and normalfaggots (similarly to how "[coding](coding.md)" is used for [programming](programming.md)). This word is absolutely unacceptable and is only to be used to mock these retards.

# Beauty

|

|

Beauty is the quality of being extremely appealing and pleasing. Though the word will likely invoke association with traditional [art](art.md), in [technology](technology.md), [engineering](engineering.md), [mathematics](math.md) and other [science](science.md) beauty is, despite it's relative vagueness and subjectivity, an important aspect of design, and in fact this "mathematical beauty" has lots of times some clearly defined shapes -- for example [simplicity](kiss.md) is mostly considered beautiful. Beauty is similar to and many times synonymous with [elegance](elegance.md).
|
||||
|
||||
Beauty can perhaps be seen as a [heuristic](heuristic.md), a touch of intuition that guides the expert in exploration of previously unknown fields, as we have come to learn that the greatest discoveries tend to be very beautiful (however there is also an opposite side: some people, such as Sabine Hossenfelder, criticize e.g. the pursuit of beautiful theories in modern physics as this approach seems to be have led to stagnation). Indeed, beginners and [noobs](noob.md) are mostly concerned with learning hard facts, learning standards and getting familiar with already known ways of solving known problems, they often aren't able to recognize what's beautiful and what's ugly. But as one gets more and more experienced and finds himself near the borders of current knowledge, there is suddenly no guidance but intuition, beauty, to suggest ways forward, and here one starts to get the feel for beauty. At this point the field, even if highly exact and rigorous, has become an [art](art.md).

- Fairy tales about about the rich "capitalist altruist": you will hear stories about famous capitalists that paint them as nice guys who give to poor for free, who do manual work despite not having to etc. This is just part of cult of personality propaganda and applying cheap populist tricks to deceive masses. A rich guy giving $100 to a poor kid on camera is an extreme powerful marketing that costs $100, which for a billionaire is of course a laughable cost. The fact is that every billionaire is the best player of the most dirty game humanity has invented and researching any such guy reveals, basically in 100% of cases, that he was in fact the worst imaginable psychopath -- Edison killed animals with electric current as part of marketing, the owner of McDonald's stole the idea and know-how from McDonald brothers ALONG WITH their own name, similar thing happened with KFC, Steve Jobs was infamous for his psychological pressure on workers equating torture, the working condition's in Ford's factories were basically the same as those for black African slaves, etcetc. **Trying to find a rich man that's good is like trying to find a shark who's a vegetarian.**

- *"Capitalism isn't perfect but it's the best system we know."*: complete [bullshit](bullshit.md), capitalism is probably the worst system that there ever was. See this whole article.

- *"Successful capitalists are the most intelligent people."*: on the contrary, mostly the stupidest people become successful -- success in capitalism depends mostly on luck and lack of moral obstacles, i.e. doing whatever it takes to succeed such as stabbing friends in the back, public lying, exploitation of workers etc. High intelligence is actually a disadvantage in this manner as it makes one see all the negative consequences of his behavior, a smart man sees that by engaging in capitalism he is not just hurting and even killing other people, but even e.g. working towards destruction of art, culture, living environment and possibly life itself. Being a successful businessman in capitalism is like steering a plane full of people, including oneself, towards ground -- only an idiot can do it.

Copyright rules differ greatly by country, most notably the US measures copyright length from the publication of the work rather than from when the author died. It is possible for a work to be copyrighted in one country and not copyrighted in another. It is sometimes also very difficult to say whether a work is copyrighted because the rules have been greatly changing (e.g. a notice used to be required for some time), sometimes even retroactively copyrighting public domain works, and there also exists no official database of copyrighted works (you can't safely look up whether your creation is too similar to someone else's). All in all, copyright is a huge mess, which is why we choose [free licenses](free_software.md) and even [public domain](public_domain.md) waivers.
|
||||
|
||||
Not even lawyers have any clue about copyright in all its complexity, it's so hugely complicated by now that apart from very clear cases no one can usually safely tell you what's copyrighted and what not, it's not defined clearly, different countries have different rules and precedents and if you win a copyright court case or not depends many times on who the judge is, whether he got laid that night and if he took a good shit in the morning. The moral of the story is this: KEEP IN THE SAFE ZONE, never go to copyright gray areas, make everything yourself from scratch, minimize reusing someone else's works.
|
||||
|
||||
In some countries copyright terrorists already establishes a kind of tax that is paid when buying a storage device such as a USB stick -- it is now assumed the device will be used to share copyrighted material so you pay extra money in advance to copyright holders for this crime you are found guilty of before you commit it. Welcome to [21st century](21st_century.md).

[Copyleft](copyleft.md) (also share-alike) is a concept standing against copyright, a kind of anti-copyright, invented by [Richard Stallman](rms.md) in the context of [free software](free_software.md). It's a license that grants people the rights to the author's work on the condition that they share its further modification under the same terms, which basically [hacks](hacking.md) copyright to effectively spread free works like a "virus".

Demoscene is a [hacker](hacking.md) [art](art.md) subculture revolving around making so called [demos](demo.md), programs that produce rich and highly [curious](interesting.md) and intriguing audiovisual effects which are sometimes limited by strict size constraints (so called [intros](intro.md)). The scene originated in northern [Europe](europe.md) sometime in 1980s (although things like screen hacks existed long before) among groups of [crackers](cracker.md) who were adding small signature effect screens into their cracked software (popularly likened to "digital graffiti"); [programming](programming.md) of these cool effects later became an art of its own and started to have their own competitions (sometimes with high financial prizes), so called *[compos](compo.md)*, at dedicated real life events called *[demoparties](demoparty.md)* (which themselves evolved from *[copyparties](copyparty.md)*, real life events focused on [piracy](piracy.md)). The community is still centered mostly in the [Europe](europe.md) (primarily Finland, in some countries demoscene was even officially added to the cultural heritage), it is underground, out of the mainstream; [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md) says that by 2010 its size was estimated to 10000 people (such people are called *demosceners*).

Demoscene is a bit of a bittersweet topic: on one side it's awesome, full of beautiful hacking, great ideas and minimalism, on the other side there are secretive people who don't share their source code (most demos are [proprietary](proprietary.md)) and ugly unportable programs that exploit quirks of specific platforms. Common platforms are [DOS](dos.md), [Commodore 64](c64.md), [Amiga](amiga.md) or [Windows](windows.md). These guys simply try to make the coolest visuals and smallest programs, with all good and bad that comes with it. Please strive to take only the good of it.

# Distance

|
||||
Distance is a [measure](metric.md) of how far away from each other two points are. Most commonly distance refers to physical separation in space, e.g. as in distance of planets from the Sun, but more generally distance can refer to any kind of parameter space and in any number of [dimensions](dimension.md), e.g. the distance of events in time measured in seconds (1D distance) or distance of two text strings as the amount of their dissimilarity ([Levenshtein distance](levenshtein_distance.md)). Distances are very important in [computer science](compsci.md) and [math](math.md) as they allow us to do such things as [clustering](clustering.md), path searching, physics simulations, various comparisons, [sorting](sort.md) etc.

Distance is similar/related to [length](length.md), the difference is that distance is computed between two points while length is the distance of one point from some implicit origin. I.e. distance is computed between two [vectors](vector.md) while length is computed from just one vector.

There are many ways to define distance within given space. Most common and implicitly assumed distance is the **[Euclidean distance](euclidean_distance.md)** (basically the "straight line from point A to point B" whose length is computed with [ Euclidean Theorem](euclidean_theorem.md)), but other distances are possible, e.g. the [taxicab distance](taxicab_distance.md) (length of the kind of perpendicular path taxis take between points A and B in Manhattan, usually longer than straight line). Mathematically a space in which distances can be measured are called [metric spaces](metric_space.md), and a distance within such space can be any [function](function.md) *dist* (called a *distance* or *metric* function) that satisfies these [axioms](axiom.md):

Hero culture (or just hero cult) is a [harmful](harmful.md) [culture](culture.md) of creating and worshiping heroes and "leaders" (and other kinds of [celebrities](celebrity.md)) which leads to e.g. creation of [cults of personality](cult_of_personality.md), strengthening [fight culture](fight_culture.md) and establishing hierarchical, anti-[anarchist](anarchism.md) society of "winners" and "losers". The concept of a hero is one that arose in context of [wars](war.md) and other many times violent conflicts; a hero is different from a mere authority or a well known individual in some area, it is someone who creates fear of disagreement and whose image is distorted to a much more positive, sometimes godlike state, by which he distorts truth and is given a certain power over others. Therefore [we](lrs.md) highly warn about falling to the trap of hero culture, though this is very difficult in current highly hierarchical society. No, people don't need heroes -- heroes need people, but not the other way around. **To us, the word hero has a pejorative meaning**. Our advice is always this:

# Hexadecimal
|
||||
|
||||
TODO
|
||||
Hexadecimal (also just *hex*) is a base-16 numeral system, very commonly used in [programming](programming.md) (alongside [binary](binary.md) and [octal](octal.md)). It basically works exactly the same as our traditional base 10 numeral system, but in addition to digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 adds also digits *A* (10), *B* (11), *C* (12), *D* (13), *E* (14) and *F* (15). In other words hexadecimal is nothing more than a different way of writing numbers -- for example instead of writing 123 in decimal we can write 7B in hexadecimal (to prevent confusion programmers often prefix hexadecimal numbers with `0x`, `#` and similar symbols, because sometimes a hexadecimal number may be formed with only digits 0 - 9 and could be confused with decimal number). Why is hexadecimal so special? Why 16? Why not just use normal decimal numbers? Well, this is out of convenience -- 16 is not an arbitrary number, it is a power of 2 (2^4 = 16); now since [digital](digital.md) [computers](computer.md) typically work with [bits](bit.md), i.e. 1s and 0s, groups of bits form binary numbers and these are (unlike decimal numbers) very easily converted to and from hexadecimal (exactly because the base 16 is a power of two base): it turns out that 4 bits (i.e. a group of 4 "1s and 0s") always convert exactly to one hexadecimal digit and vice versa, which is very nice and simplifies mental calculations. It also formats numbers nicely -- 8 bits will always be exactly 2 hexadecimal digits etc. That's basically all.
|
||||
|
||||
Some **funny hexadecimal values** that are also [English](english.md) words at the same time and which you may include in your programs for the lulz include: `abba`, `ace`, `add`, `babe`, `bad`, `be`, `bee`, `beef`, `cab`, `cafe`, `dad`, `dead`, `deaf`, `decade`, `facade`, `face`, `fee`, `feed`. You may also utilize digits here (see also [leet](leet.md), recall the famous number `80085` that looks like `BOOBS`); `0` = `O`, `1` = `I`/`l`, `2` = `Z`, `4` = `A` (already available though), `5` = `S`, `6` = `G`, `8` = `B` (also already available). Then you get many more words, for example `0b5e55ed`, `0be5e`, `0ff1c1a1`, `101`, `105e`, `1061ca1`, `16100`, `1ad1e5`, `1dea1`, `1e6a1`, `2e1da`, `5a661e5`, `5c1f1`, `50c10b101061ca1`, `60061e`, `600d`, `600fed`, `601d`, `601f`, `60d`, `6a55`, `a1d5`, `a55`, `a5c11`, `a5oc1a1`, `ac1d`, `acce551b1e`, `ad01f`, `b00b1e5`, `b00b5`, `b055`, `b0d1e5`, `b100d`, `b101061ca1`, `b10b`, `b1a5ed`, `b1ade`, `b1e55ed`, `ba115`, `ba5ed`, `bad6e`, `bada55`, `c001`, `c0de`, `c10aca`, `c1a551f1ed`, `ca6ed`, `cab1e`, `caca0`, `d06`, `d15ab1ed`, `d15ea5e`, `d1a106`, `d1ab10`, `ed1b1e`, `f001`, `f00d`, `f1a6`, `f1dd1e`, `f1ea5`, `fa151f1ab1e`, `fa6`, `faece5`, `f06` etc.
|

Hexadecimal is so common in programming that programmers often use the term "hex" or "hexadecimal" data to just mean "binary" data, e.g. as in "[hex editor](hex_editor.md)".
|
||||
|
||||
Let's try to make this a bit clearer with a table:
|
||||
|
||||
| decimal | binary (2^1) | octal (2^3) | hexadecimal (2^4) |
|
||||
| ------- | ------------ | ----------- | ----------- |
|
||||
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
|
||||
| 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
|
||||
| 2 | 10 | 2 | 2 |
|
||||
| 3 | 11 | 3 | 3 |
|
||||
| 4 | 100 | 4 | 4 |
|
||||
| 5 | 101 | 5 | 5 |
|
||||
| 6 | 110 | 6 | 6 |
|
||||
| 7 | 111 | 7 | 7 |
|
||||
| 8 | 1000 | 10 | 8 |
|
||||
| 9 | 1001 | 11 | 9 |
|
||||
| 10 | 1010 | 12 | A |
|
||||
| 11 | 1011 | 13 | B |
|
||||
| 12 | 1100 | 14 | C |
|
||||
| 13 | 1101 | 15 | D |
|
||||
| 14 | 1110 | 16 | E |
|
||||
| 15 | 1111 | 17 | F |
|
||||
| 16 | 10000 | 20 | 10 |
|
||||
| 17 | 10001 | 21 | 11 |
|
||||
| 18 | 10010 | 22 | 12 |
|
||||
|
||||
The key thing to notice is that a group of 4 binary digits will always directly translate to one hexadecimal digit and vice versa according to the table above, so for example a binary number 00101110 will be converted to hexadecimal number 2E because 0010 translates to 2 and 1110 translates to E. Also notice this doesn't work the same with conversions to/from decimal numbers. As a programmer you should memorize the 16 pairs of hex digits and binary quadruplets so that you can quickly convert numbers in your head.
|
||||
|
||||
The conversions work as in any other base, basically just remember this: *N*th digit from the right (starting with 0) says how many "16 to N"s there are. So for example a hexadecimal number E0A3 has 3 "16^0"s (1s), 10 (A) "16^1"s (16s), 0 "16^2"s (256s) and 14 "16^3"s (4096s), that's 3 * 1 + 10 * 16 + 0 * 256 + 14 * 4096 = 57507. Is it difficult? No.

KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid!; also KISR, *keep it simple, retard*) is a [minimalist](minimalism.md) design philosophy that favors simplicity, both internal and external, [technology](tech.md) that is **as simple as possible** to achieve given task. This philosophy doesn't primarily stem from [laziness](laziness.md) or a desire to rush something (though these are completely valid reasons too), but mainly from the fact that higher [complexity](complexity.md) comes with increasingly negative effects such as the cost of development, cost of [maintenance](maintenance.md), greater probability of [bugs](bug.md) and failure, more [dependencies](dependency.md) etc.

As people don't have to work, very few people need to make daily travels, therefore there are very few roads and cars, making more space for nature, farming, leading to cleaner air, and almost completely eliminating noise and light pollution (and other things such as traffic accidents), furthermore also greatly reducing work needed to be done in connection to maintaining roads, sidewalks, directing traffic, manufacturing and repairing cars and so on. As no business exists anymore, there is no [marketing](marketing.md), there are no ads, no billboards, no workplaces connected to marketing are needed anymore, further eliminating jobs, increasing space for living, for nature, mental health is increasing and so on. Disappearing industries further on eliminate other industries living off of them, such as law firms, transport companies, security agencies, cleaning firms, patent offices, state bureaucracy and so on and so forth. More people can now study medicine as opposed to investing in bitcoin or making bullshit startups, leading to greater number of doctors who can dedicate more time to patients, which together with free healthcare and the great stress relief increases health of people -- people are happier, full of life and can do anything they feel is best with full focus, without distractions and bullying. Increased mental health and abundance leading to decrease in conflicts and crime lead to eliminating police and army, more jobs and bullshit are being rid of, well being of people is skyrocketing, nature is recovering, society is flourishing.

# Minesweeper
|
||||
|
||||
Minesweeper is a simple but entertaining singleplayer puzzle [game](game.md) whose objective is to deduce locations of all mines hidden in a square grid given certain numeric clues. You will most often see the game treated as a [minigame](minigame.md) but indeed it can be taken to much higher level for example with [speedrunning](speedrunning.md) or by expanding the concept to create a more complex game; as a matter of fact there is a dedicated community around competitive play of the game (see minesweepergame.com, their wiki nicely explains advanced strategies and techniques such as so called "1.5 click"). Minesweeper falls under the kind of games highly appreciated by [LRS](lrs.md) perspective -- it's very simple, easy to program (try it as an [exercise](exercises.md)) and learn but still highly [fun](fun.md) to play, it's mathematically [interesting](interesting.md) (example: the *Minesweeper theorem* states that any given board has the sum of its clue numbers same as that of its complement board) and can in theory be played even without a [computer](computer.md) (if someone else prepares you the board). Current form of the game seems to have evolved from 1980s games such as *Mined-Out* or *Relentless Logic* (which were in turn likely inspired by older games like *Battleships*) or even 1973 mainframe game called *Cube*, later it became popular mainly due to being one of default games that came with [Windows](windows.md).

- **Try to not create many source files**, many times your project can very well be in a single file which is the ideal case -- it will make it compile VERY fast, possibly be even better optimized (the compiler sees the whole code) and it will be easy to compile, it's basically a win-win-win-win-win-win-win scenario. Create **[header only libraries](header_only.md)** If you have multiple files, keep them in the same directory and try to have just a **[single compilation unit](single_compilation_unit.md)** (only one .c file with several .h files).

- **Don't depend on any compiler extensions!** For maximum portability minimize [dependencies](dependency.md), i.e. don't RELY on things like GNU C extensions, POSIX extensions (things like `_POSIX_C_SOURCE`, `_XOPEN_SOURCE` etc.). You MAY use them, but always do so in a way that makes it easy to get rid of them -- for example do not use macros such as `PATH_MAX` directly, always define your own macro, e.g. `#define MYLIB_PATH_MAX PATH_MAX` and only use that -- this way you may easily switch to e.g. hardcoded limit if the macro isn't available on some system. Similarly with anything else: if your program is using a feature specific to a compiler, operating system, some extra third party standard and so on, always offer an easy way of disabling or replacing it ([preprocessor](preprocessor.md) is very good for this).

Recursion (from Latin recursio, "running back") in general is a situation in which a [definition](definition.md) refers to itself; for example the definition of a human's ancestor as "the human's parents and the ancestors of his parents" ([fractals](fractal.md) are also very nice example of what a simple recursive definition can achieve). In [programming](programming.md) recursion has a meaning of a **[function](function.md) that calls itself**; this is the meaning we'll assume in this article, unless noted otherwise.

We divide recursion to a **direct** and **indirect** one. In direct recursion the function calls itself directly, in indirect function *A* calls a function *B* which ends up (even possibly by calling some more functions) calling *A* again. Indirect recursion is tricky because it may appear by mistake and cause a [bug](bug.md) (which is nevertheless easily noticed as the program will mostly run out of memory and crash).

Watchdog is a special [timer](timer.md) that serves as a safety mechanism for detecting malfunction of [computer](computer.md) programs at [run time](run_time.md) by requiring programs to periodically reset the timer.
|
||||
|
||||
Basically watchdog keeps counting up and a correctly behaving program is supposed to periodically reset this count ("kick" or "feed the dog") -- if the reset doesn't happen for a longer period, the watchdog counts up to a high value and alerts that something's wrong ("the dog starts barking"), e.g. with an [interrupt](interrupt.md) or a [signal](signal.md). This can mean for example that the program has become stuck in an [infinite loop](infinite_loop.md) or that its instructions were corrupted and the program control jumped to some unintended area of RAM and is doing crazy [shit](shit.md). This is usually handled by resetting the system so as to prevent possible damage by the program gone insane, also [logs](log.md) can be made etc. Watchdogs are very often used in [embedded systems](embedded.md). [Operating systems](os.md) may also use them to detect nonresponsive [processes](process.md).

- **old magazines**: If you can get your hands on old magazines somehow (physical, pdf, ...) about computers, cell phones, games etc., you may get a nice source of a lot of interesting, obscure and lost information. For example on the web it's impossible to find a good list of old games -- if you search for "top 50 old games", you get a list of complete shit games from 2015, which is now considered "old"; it's much better you get some old game magazine from say 2005 that lists top 50 games at the time. Furthermore these magazines are professionally made and actually [older](old.md), i.e. of better quality. You may also find nice gems, predictions of the future, politically incorrect articles etc.
|
||||
- **4chan archives**: There are some cool 4chan archives with search features, it can bring up interesting discussions on obscure topics you wouldn't find otherwise.
|
||||
- **non-English web**: Firstly search your native language web (RIP if your native language is English), secondly search languages you speak or can use translator for -- many countries have big websites unknown beyond the borders of the country (e.g. Russian Lurkmore wiki, the Asian Wikipedia alternatives and so on).

- **Non-web**: When web fails, you can search the [darknet](darknet.md), [gopher](gopher.md), [gemini](gemini.md), [usenet](usenet.md), [tor](tor.md) etc.

## Alternatives
|
||||
|
||||
Due to the corruption and increasing censorship of Wikipedia it is important to look for alternatives that are important especially when researching anything connected to politics, but also when you just want a simpler, more condensed or simply better written explanation of some topic. There exist other similar online encyclopedias like [Metapedia](metapedia.md), [Infogalactic](infogalactic.md), [Citizendium](citizendium.md), [Leftypedia](leftypedia.md), [GCIDE](gcide.md), New World Encyclopedia, [Justapedia](justapedia.md), HandWiki or Britannica online, as well as dozens of printed encyclopedias and old digitized encyclopedias like Britannica 11th edition. Then there is another type of very notable encyclopedias among which are for example [Encyclopedia Dramatica](dramatica.md) or Russian [Lurkmore](lurkmore.md) wiki (currently at https://neolurk.org, calling itself the "people's Wikipedia", hinting at the fact that Wikipedia doesn't really belong to the people anymore) -- these are not so serious in tone, they're often called a satire, meme or parody by the "serious" ones, they're greatly uncensored and although being usually more focused on internet culture, they do to a great degree document knowledge at wide and sometimes manage to explain difficult topic very simply by going to the point and using humor and plain language. These encyclopedias are typically the most objective, uncensored and least politically infected and so they're a much better source on anything relating to society or politics -- where Wikipedia will strategically obscure and downplay "inconvenient facts", Dramatica will simply highlight anything that's of importance. Anyway, for a more comprehensive list of Wikipedia alternatives see the article on [encyclopedias](encyclopedia.md). Many people are actively criticizing Wikipedia and want to diminish its power, among whom is one of Wikipedia's founders, [Larry Sanger](larry_sanger.md), who established [encyclosphere](encyclosphere.md), a project that tries to connect together various Internet encyclopedias -- this may be another place to look for Wikipedia alternatives. Anyway the moral of the story here is probably to not rely on a single encyclopedia, as we see where that leads. Read more sources and different points of view.

A woman in emergency situations even presents a deadly danger: not only do women have significantly lower reaction times (source e.g. Aditya Jain et al. 2015), but in sudden emergency situations women always start to freak out and panic, they start screaming, running around and can't control themselves -- this is because, again, genetically men are programmed to deal with danger, men stay calm in a crisis, while women are programmed to rather signal the danger and run away. This can be seen basically in any video of some accident. For this reason letting women into critical missions such as space walks is a huge, life threatening risk.

Remember, by now things such as [ghostwriting](ghostwriter.md) are absolutely normal -- a rich guy without any writing talent just pays someone to write for him while giving the authorship credit to the rich guy, it's legal and completely common, so very soon there will be things like men who are paid to secretly make scientific research that will then be handed over to some woman because politics just needs women with achievements they can't make themselves, it's just natural development. At the moment there are many [token](token.md) women inserted on [soyentific](soyence.md) positions etc. (lol just watch any recent [NASA](nasa.md) mission broadcast, there is always a woman inserted in front of the camera).
