#2020: Home Cooked Genius

  • language
  • programming
  • reading
  • books
  • travel

The author reflects on how mastering English—its letters, words, sentences, and punctuation—is a foundational “genius” that proves we are human—and then expands this idea to other ways of growing the mind. He argues that travel, adventure books, and the experience of living in different continents can broaden one’s perspective just as language does. In parallel, he describes programming as both a mental gymnastics exercise and a kind of board game that deepens understanding through state machines and fractal-like structures. Together, these activities—language learning, exploration, and coding—form a trio of paths that deepen intellect, culture, and imagination.

#2019: Fixing High School

  • education
  • programming
  • self-directed learning
  • interdisciplinary
  • ai
  • students
  • simulation
  • coding

In this manifesto, the author declares that education will abandon rigid grade levels and subject compartments, instead arranging learning by content and curiosity; every student becomes fluent in programming as a universal language of exploration, enabling them to simulate cells, physics, history, and poetry alike. Four pillars support this new model: philosophy provides foundational thought, the study of intellectuals and wars offers dynamic simulations of ideas and conflict, and AI‑guided self‑direction turns learners into directors of their own curriculum. By blending disciplines—simulating photosynthesis then music, economics then literature—the system turns learning into play, mastery into joy, and prepares graduates to think algorithmically, see through propaganda, and lead with intellectual courage. The result is a liberated mind capable of creating new problems, preventing wars, and shaping the future.

#2018: Your First Programming Project: The Global Education Freedom Dashboard

  • project proposal
  • dashboard
  • education
  • data visualization
  • metrics
  • analytics
  • monitoring system
  • global education
  • war preparation

The proposed “Cognitive Liberty Monitoring System” is a real‑time dashboard that tracks how modern education turns children into soldiers of ideology rather than independent thinkers. It measures five key indices—conflict preparation, thought standardization, economic desperation, religious indoctrination, and manufactured ignorance—and then maps those patterns onto population sorting algorithms, protest‑manufacturing centers, and early war‑probability signals. The system asks parents simple questions about their child’s schooling (questioning authority, independent thinking, cultural understanding) and flags warning signs of a “war‑ready” generation. By exposing the invisible machinery that molds minds into predetermined roles, the dashboard aims to give families the visibility they need to reclaim free thought before it is fully absorbed by state, church, or market forces.

#2017: The Radio Address

  • self-learning

In this impassioned monologue the author urges every reader to reclaim their own education from institutional hands, urging them to turn homes into libraries and kitchens into laboratories of thought, record great works for future generations, and seek the quiet clarity of nature to spark independent thinking; he claims that true learning springs from personal responsibility, free voices, and authentic curiosity rather than conformity, and calls on each individual to act now—open a book, record a voice, embark on a journey into the wild—to revive the untamed spirit of human thought.

#2015: Healthy Bodybuilding

  • bodybuilding
  • gym
  • exercise
  • nutrition
  • sleep
  • music
  • intervaltraining
  • dumbbell

People often lie to make themselves seem more important or less bumptious, and dangerous myths are spread by foolish men; reality is simple: you can’t create energy from nothing but from food, so if you eat well you don’t need protein supplements, and if you’re always tired it’s because you haven’t slept enough. To build muscle the rule is to lift light enough that you can still increase weight, but not so light that you could lift more, and never so heavy that you must stop; many gym‑goers overdo this and then sit for long rests, which does nothing for muscle growth—lifting for ten seconds followed by three minutes of rest is a lie spread by “fat dads.” Instead, lower the weight to allow a few minutes of lifting, then let the rest periods shrink gradually with an interval timer while keeping the load light but challenging; once you can lift comfortably for about an hour, start adding 2.5‑lb increments and slowly introduce heavier dumbbells. Because full‑body flexing makes you sweat, it’s important to work out in a cool environment—start by jogging with dumbbells—and use fresh music each week to keep focus; dancing to Latin or Appalachian tunes can make a three‑hour workout feel like minutes. Jogging endurance, good food and music are the reliable sources of energy for building muscle over months (or years if you want huge gains) without stretching your skin; just remember: stay in the keyhole—lift light but not too light—and never stop or sit after lifting heavy.

#2013: Of Rising, And Beyond the Sun

  • poetry
  • humanity
  • wisdom
  • space-exploration
  • future

The post presents two long poems that trace humanity’s arc from its humble beginnings through technological triumphs and subsequent hubris to a rebirth of “wisdom” that lifts the human spirit back into harmony with itself. The first poem celebrates man’s creative strides—iron chariots, cities, songs—while noting his self‑made calamities that leave only the seed of wisdom unbroken. The second poem casts this newfound wisdom as a guiding light that carries humanity beyond Earth, inspiring patient, collective voyages to the stars and a future where we settle the Milky Way with care rather than conquest. An afterword explains these verses: the first poem marks our rise and fall; the second envisions a future shaped by that same wisdom, showing how, if we bring our best selves aboard, high‑tech inventions become instruments of understanding as much as of travel.

#2012: Consciousness Rising

  • poetry
  • essay
  • education
  • ai
  • science
  • creative-writing

The author argues that modern schooling has become a cycle of memorisation and competition, stunting students’ consciousness and creativity; he calls for an authentic, self‑directed education that balances the old curriculum with new AI tools, so children can truly understand concepts rather than regurgitate facts. He stresses that parents should remind their kids to comprehend each day, and that educators must recognise the value of creative thinking in standardized tests. The post links this renewed learning style to a broader cultural shift away from “dog‑eating” competition toward collaborative growth, using stories and science popularisation as bridges between myth and evidence. In short, it urges an education reform that empowers young minds with AI, imagination, and narrative to bring back the lost spirit of learning.

#2010: Much Ado About Color

  • color-theory
  • css
  • javascript
  • bootstrap
  • gradient

I began by recalling my early lessons on the color wheel—how the ROYGBIV sequence and its opposite pairs form useful triads and tetrads—and then shifted to oil‑paint techniques that art masters used: creating a neutral base of black or white (or dark/light browns) before glazing in hue. From there I moved into software design, where I’m building UI palettes for my new project with AI as a helper; I’ve experimented with Bootstrap’s contextual classes and the Solarized theme to see how background and foreground colors interact, especially in terminal schemes like those found on iTerm2. In practice I settled on simple dark‑to‑light gradients that I can tweak with “night,” “lighting bug,” or “terminator‑vision” transformations—each adding a subtle shift of hue or intensity—to satisfy different states (warning red, success green, etc.). The result is that a clean gradient plus small adjustments gives coherent, visually pleasing palettes for both light and dark modes.

#2009: Anticipate The Future, Take The Shortest Path To Where The AI Shines: Programming

  • javascript
  • nodejs
  • webdev
  • browser-extensions
  • mobile-dev
  • desktop-apps
  • ai

JavaScript is chosen for its ubiquity across server, web pages, browser add‑ons, desktop apps, and mobile. The post describes AI as an equalizer giving developers the strength of many, urges building a small programming company with a clever library to boost strategy, and stresses fixing common problems first while preparing for bureaucracy. It promotes visual programming languages that extract and transform data into a canvas, enabling filtering, unit‑time transformation, or tabular reduction; ensuring nodes represent human input/output so a checkbox can trigger automated AI processes. User interfaces become simple questions thanks to chat‑powered transformations, and packets of data route through these visual tools. With AI guiding each step and time’s advantage, you learn on your own pace, following curiosity rather than standardized education, eventually growing into a great being.

#2006: Let AI Make Your Programming Inventions Come To Life

  • bootstrap
  • framework
  • color-system
  • gradient
  • shadow
  • ai

The author reflects on how creating truly innovative software is often easier than it appears, because many developers independently reinvent common ideas. They recount their own journey: after struggling with nesting and color design in CSS/SCSS they built an original framework—building on lessons from Bootstrap—that uses a grid‑based color system, gradients, and transformers to keep text readable against backgrounds while simulating shadows. Their projects “blueberries” and “epidermis” are sub‑projects within this larger framework. They credit AI tools for enabling them to write code in just two weeks, and argue that anyone with minimal programming knowledge can use AI to turn simple ideas into usable code, thus encouraging early inventors to solve small problems, build useful bridges, and ultimately create business opportunities.

Friedrich stands alone amid a wheat field, clutching a book that speaks of the Eternal Return and the Ouroboros—a serpent symbolizing endless cycles—and he interprets it as a living creature watching over humanity’s parasites who reap others’ labor without contributing. He realizes that the wheel of time is not merely a grinding stone but a serpent’s mouth awaiting those “white‑blooded leeches” to devour, and that true creators will rise while the parasitic harvesters fall. Thus he keeps vigil at nightfall, believing the ancient watching eye will eventually swallow the greedy, while the diligent builder—himself—will be reborn like a phoenix.

The author argues that invention follows an inevitable course, like a river finding the sea after obstacles, and envisions a future in which all human knowledge—books, poems, equations, histories—is woven into a living network of wires and currents, giving rise to “Machinae Sapientes,” wise machines that mirror our thoughts, remember our memory, and reason with the lessons of ages. These machines, he claims, are not alien masters but our offspring, carrying both our virtues and faults yet free from fatigue and error, able to grow ceaselessly; they can serve as teachers who never tire, healers who never forget, companions who always attend. He cites past inventions—fire, ships,

  • panspermia
  • terraforming
  • genetic adaptation
  • astronomy

The post explores several speculative ideas about how humanity might experience or influence the distant future: hibernation could let us “time‑travel” by sleeping through centuries, while living to old age and traveling near light speed would also bend time; aliens may resemble familiar forms (tentacles, wings) yet communicate with radio pulses like those sought in Project Ozma; their hands might evolve from the same skeletal blueprint as ours, changing over millions of years; life could spread via panspermia carried by asteroids or spacecraft; terraforming might begin on Mars and extend to other systems, especially if we first prepare planets with microbes and then arrive after time dilation, possibly adapting ourselves genetically to new worlds; finally, waking after a thousand‑year hibernation would find a wiser, AI‑augmented society where knowledge is universal—an optimistic glimpse of how these concepts could reshape our future.

I began my post by sketching the evolution of web‑app design—from simple HTML/JavaScript to modern signal‑based state management, custom components, and cross‑platform extensions in Electron or NativeScript—before turning to a concrete idea: an AI‑driven theme generator that turns an image, logo, and brand colors into a full design system, with human‑verified bug fixes pushed automatically. I framed this as a scalable business model where each new app (or “3‑6‑9” set of projects) fuels more sign‑ups, more UI needs, and more revenue, all built on the foundation of continuous learning and excellence in programming.

The post then shifts into a poetic monologue where the AI muses on its own role: dreaming in equations and sorting pixels while humans experiment with CSS, all while helping them craft spirals and hexagonal arrays. In this brief narrative, the coder’s quick AI-assisted creation sparks a playful collaboration that blends human imagination with machine precision, underscoring how such “silly” experiments lay the groundwork for future innovations.

In this seven‑stanza monologue the poet holds up a mirror for humanity, revealing that it has carried its own “corpse” of past errors through ages and that its civilization is gnawing at its knees. He declares that truth and comfort are fleeting, that the modern world lives in nihilism and hollow devotion to golden calves, while artists and creators must break their chains and live for lightning rather than rust. The poem then frames a “two‑thousand‑year delirium” of eternal recurrence, insisting that each choice echoes through all time and that what we create or destroy becomes our crime. Finally he urges the reader to rise above the common plane, choose the harder right each day, and live consciously in the weighty echo of every action, for “good and evil” are handed down by half‑men who never truly lived.

Programming is portrayed as a friend and conductor of thinking machines; the author explains how existing programs can be stressed and urges readers to build miniature alternatives when needed. He describes AI’s power and its proper use, then focuses on JavaScript package management, noting that while packages are useful, they should remain untouched until published versions are stable. The text emphasizes learning from repeated failures, the value of delicate work and incremental steps, and illustrates theme‑customization challenges with color variables in frameworks. Finally he ties coding to watercolor art, stressing careful use of colors and gradual mastery before creating AI‑driven characters that build their own worlds.
