The post argues that conventional schooling relies on rote memorization rather than true understanding: teachers recite textbook passages, students cram for exams, and grades become proof of the teacher’s effectiveness instead of evidence of learning. It claims standardized tests only capture surface knowledge while ignoring individual creativity, and that this system makes learners feel unintelligent even when they grasp concepts. The author suggests a new model in which progress is self‑paced, learning is demonstrated through practical projects (like building simulations or virtual worlds for each subject), and the ultimate goal is to create a “real school” where personal exploration replaces one‑size‑fits‑all curricula.

Falsehoods—mistakes or lies that clutter our thoughts—are described as “mind killers” that keep us from growing up; the post argues that reading well‑chosen books and spending time in nature through camping or long walks can cleanse these falsehoods, because books bring wisdom while outdoor adventures reset the mind and make it receptive to learning. The author suggests that modern life’s distractions are deeply embedded in culture, but a simple “noble tradition” of buying gear and going on vacations can break those patterns. By stepping out of daily routines and relaxing in nature, one can rest, contemplate, and finally internalise true knowledge, thus becoming a “great being.”

I revisit my long‑time music‑generation project several times, rewriting the code over the years and finally settling on a small, open‑source tool called **westland** that uses Tidal notation to automatically compose drum patterns in LMMS. After learning the basics of notes, octaves, and rhythm from Ableton tutorials, I discovered how to encode rhythmic structures like “4n” for quarter notes and nested arrays for faster beats (e.g., `["F4","F4",["F4","F4"],"F4"]`). With this system I can generate symmetrical drum patterns that evolve over time, applying filters and transforms to create fresh dance tracks. My goal is to produce machine‑generated electronic music that feels new each time while keeping the composition process simple and reproducible for other programmers or musicians.

On this post I describe a lonely stone bear perched atop the ancient Mount Ślęża—an enduring symbol that has been revered for millennia as a special place where sun‑worshipping peoples once gathered. The author explains that the bear’s form comes from Celtic tradition, probably the Boii tribe of the Iron Age, and represents the goddess Artio who sleeps in winter, awakens in spring, transforms into a bear, and ascends to become a constellation—an image echoed by Greek Artemis and Roman Diana. The narrator then recalls his own childhood experience of playing the bear in a school play, complete with a mask, and finishes with memories of simple adventures along the mountain’s trails with his dog Budrys, always watching the mist‑shrouded Słęża and Artio from afar.

In this nostalgic tale the narrator recalls childhood adventures on a hill crowned by old trees—where he would kindle fires from fallen branches, build shelters in mud and leaves, and watch rain pour down as he savored pizza warmed over his little fire. He remembers watching hunters and ice‑sheeted rivers, feeling safe beneath thick roots while also noting strange creatures like a “Chupacabra Gollum” that haunted the hill after wheat workers found it. The story weaves personal memories of simple joys with glimpses of larger events—Chernobyl’s impact on his country—and ends with an eager hunt for evidence of the creature, as villagers whisper its legend.

The post celebrates the power of personal effort and wisdom to transform both oneself and others. It urges readers to treat each day as precious, using education, work, and life’s simple moments as stepping stones toward greatness filled with adventure, knowledge, and wisdom. By staying mindful of our inner self—wise, fearless, strong, beautiful—and walking steadily, we add our own steps to become who we are destined to be. Each unique journey amplifies our lives, offering fresh challenges and new insights at every corner. Sharing that wisdom lifts others from the bottom up, igniting hearts and helping them rise as well.

Dance is celebrated as a living poem—an art that began as battle training but evolved into a noble expression of human creativity. The post mixes personal memories (watching Fred Astaire and Mr. Bean) with references to classic moves such as the Napoleon Dynamite Dance, Melbourne Shuffle, Running Man, and T‑Step, ultimately recommending a shuffle dance that blends the Running Man and T‑Step steps while syncing to slow‑tempo music by Alan Walker. It encourages beginners to start simple body workouts (jogging, shuffling, weight lifting) and adopt a lettuce‑based diet to lower calorie density, then advance toward faster beats as skill improves. In short, dancing is portrayed both as an artistic poem and a practical workout that builds flexibility, muscle strength, and confidence.

Consciousness is presented as the universe’s most remarkable miracle, giving humanity freedom of will, love, and wisdom beyond mere evolutionary adaptation. The post argues that we must actively correct the cognitive biases and social flaws—racism, xenophobia, group‑think—that still hold our minds back, and that self‑education through books and personal reflection is the key to overcoming these limitations. By learning independently, leading rather than following, and sharing this knowledge with others, we can rise above poverty, culture, and circumstance, ultimately inspiring a wiser, more enlightened world.

The author proposes a simple, user‑friendly system for home automation based on single‑board computers (like Raspberry Pi) and chat‑room style interfaces where devices act as bots that communicate via plain English commands; by leveraging existing assistants (Siri, Alexa, etc.) and custom “event‑emitter” scripts, one can orchestrate tasks such as thermostat control or energy saving without writing complex code. They argue that the key to invention is observing everyday tools, simplifying their use, and building modular, interoperable bots that communicate over a shared chat platform, thereby turning ordinary devices into an anthropomorphized “agent network.”

Open‑source Linux phones like the Pine Phone or Raspberry Pi give developers more flexibility, better security and true OS access than closed “walled garden” smartphones that depend on simplified GUIs and proprietary ecosystems.

The post explains how structuring a program around an Event Emitter—an object that can both listen for events and emit them—simplifies development by making the main file act like an index of all functions rather than a long linear script; it uses a simple chat example where “outgoing‑message” events are emitted when a user sends text, triggering handlers that package data for the server, which then emits “incoming‑message” events to other clients, and extends this pattern to more complex scenarios like a MUD game or inter‑bot communication, showing how keeping everything event‑driven keeps code small (often just 20 lines), easy to modify, and easier to visualize as a diagram of interactions.

The author argues that modern schooling relies too much on rote memorization and multiple-choice exams, neglecting real-world skill acquisition—illustrated with a photo‑editing analogy—and proposes gamified, project-based learning (e.g., using tools like Kerbal Space Program) to give students practical knowledge and financial independence.

Learning is a step‑by‑step journey of hands‑on practice, from building computers to coding in ES2021, that turns basic knowledge into lasting skill and achievement.

The post describes an idealized educational experience where a school fully supports its students by covering accommodation, meals, travel, and even medical expenses—so that whether you’re an exchange student or living independently, you never have to worry about housing or health costs. Students are guaranteed stay until they finish, with no graduation ceremony required, and can return anytime; they’ll be treated as a family with group therapy sessions, and if they fail in their own business they’re welcomed back. The school emphasizes practical learning over rote memorization—students receive white coats for microbiology or medicine, pursue software development through tutorials, and progress from student to mentor to entrepreneur. Frequent travel between cultures and labs is encouraged, ensuring that students never feel stuck or lonely but instead become “citizens of the world.” In short, this institution promises a lifelong, dignified, and flexible learning journey that nurtures independent thinkers who will contribute meaningfully to humanity.

A long‑winded proposal that true education and a single “Earth” passport tied to a never‑empty collective bank will unite humanity, end poverty, and finally stop war.

The post explains setting up a Raspberry Pi with Node.js, learning JavaScript via small “Hello World” projects, and building a GitHub/npm portfolio of tiny programs to launch a programming career.

The post argues that student loans burden learners for years, that schools often fail to truly educate, and that true learning comes from self‑study rather than institutional degrees.

I recount my struggle against relentless school bullying, how I used programming and pixel art to learn and grow, and give tips for staying resilient and turning hardship into personal strength.

The author argues that conscious life is the true light of the universe, and that by understanding oneself—one’s role in the cosmos—and continually learning, we can align with the right forces to drive our own evolution; this self‑knowledge, coupled with examples from individuals like Alex The Supertramp, President Reagan, and Carl Sagan, illustrates how personal insight fuels collective progress toward a future where humanity expands across the galaxy as a single family bound by shared ancestry.

The author calls for sweeping reforms—replacing prisons with schools and care facilities, guaranteeing every child a home and the money they need, implementing worldwide exchange programs, and revamping education—to create a better world, noting that many problems remain unspoken but will eventually be tackled as awareness grows and global change unfolds.

Programming can be seen both as a creative art and a technical discipline that requires solid architecture, coordination, and collaborative effort. By crafting simple programs—whether pixel‑art scrolling games like *Mari0*, 2‑D worlds in Inform 7, or robotic projects such as autonomous drones—developers learn to turn ideas into tangible universes, giving life to formulas and enabling new business products. Small experiments become stepping stones: building generative art, printing it on canvas, or exploring electronics and robotics; each project strengthens the loop of learning by doing. In this way programming evolves from a hobby into a powerful tool that fuels innovation, research (as seen in mountains of white papers), and real‑world impact—from creative expression to job offers and solutions for poverty.

Attending a prestigious show or hearing great speakers will make the most thoughtful people judge you by two things: your spirit and how far you’ve gone to leave lasting contributions to humanity. They’ll care less about material status, schools or salary, and more about integrity, self‑awareness, and what you have done in context of the world. Schools (high school through university) often hold us back, giving a wrong impression of reality; we need to read transformative books and learn by doing, not just memorizing facts. A good student becomes an intellectual and a business person who can speak from the heart and move audiences—skills that school rarely teaches. Thus you must take responsibility for your own education, integrate knowledge, pace yourself right, and let the culture of great authors and speakers merge into yours to help the world grow.
