the fact that it is useless

I myself have not learned/do math the “proper” way, whatever that mean. But I kind of mean that even Freya Holmer herself who didn’t learn math formally but by autodidact/self-taught, she does math properly by writing her own equations before implementing it to code.

As I don’t always really know how to write/read equations, I approach math in more programming ways. I mostly deal with graph where x is time, length, or something else that is iterable. Then by that x I want to have y like size, position, angle, color, or other data to present given current x.

But as much as I hate math in school, now knowing that solving these problem can be beautiful, I kind of wish I can do math much better because imagine the satisfaction when I can solve more complex stuff.

math is hard, annoying, useless

then found shaders, procedural art, freya holmer.

so math is hard, annoying, beautiful. well not exactly 180 then.

Not that I’ve been to these places, just vibe judgement based on the map look.

I follow earthquake notification account on mastodon. In the past 2-3 years, I noticed there are a lot of earthquakes in Almaty (Kazakhstan). Though I never really look at its magnitude, so maybe they’re not that big.

I just checked, appened as recent as

Also when the bot posts, it posts an image of the epicenter & is surrounding map (such as the parent post of the linked post). And everytime a zoomed-in map of Chile/west coast South America, I go “this look like the Levant but it’s not very familiar, oh it’s Chile”

I wish Sam Altman to encounter difficulties every time he had to use bathroom and increased chance of his phone fell to the toilet all the time.

onion title 😭

why is this tech always got implemented as chat lmao.

I also just installed Waterfox for the first time after reading the Wikipedia page. I use it to replace Firefox to be used when I need webgl or webrtc/voice call. my main browser is still Librewolf

I was ignoring everything Waterfox back when I realize they were bought by an advertising company, System1, which also owns StartPage.

BUT, I recently read from Wikipedia that Waterfox has gone independent again since 2023.
