    "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times" -- This famous quote is widely attributed to Bruce Lee and reflects his philosophy on mastery and focus. However, there is no definitive evidence that he wrote or said these exact words.

    WANG documentary. If you think you know anything about electronics - you have to watch this. It explains everything - all the way from the 70s down to FTX. There is one moment there, that is a miracle, really. It is also in line with late work of VA (who was, arguably, the smartest man, who lived in EU in XX century).

    Leon is a 1994 English-language French action-thriller film - released in the United States as The Professional originally and then as Leon: The Professional

    VA literally proved Neumann's conjecture about languages.

    There are core operations upon text field. There are at least 4. Implementaton of one produced Web 1.0.

    Sat Sep 27. 2025.

    UNIX-HATERS Handbook 1994. Not a single problem was addressed in 30 years. Wikipedia says ext2 solves whatever. The reality is much deeper. And the root is not in US. It's in EU.

    Finally mapped AI to vN. Cascading AI with fallbacks. Nothing fancy. It's backtracking, basically, plus VA. VA part is key, naturally.

    Not only that. The design is vN *but* IO/M is actually ZK towards CPU! Basically, Brooks was saying this exact thing (about tables), but he did not know about ZK (nobody did). So Brooks expressed the ZK on vN before ZK existed even. Talk about being ahead of times.

    The Rise of Unix explains how single pass compiler (from EU) effectively sold the whole thing. The same trick had been repeated over and over again. First by B, then by Borland and then by Google and now it's all back to EU. Several decades to turn B into V. "Progress".

    Rock/Paper/Scissors

    In 2012, researchers from the Ishikawa Watanabe Laboratory at the University of Tokyo created a robot hand that can play rock paper scissors with a 100% win rate against a human opponent. Using a high-speed camera the robot recognizes within one millisecond which shape the human hand is making, then produces the corresponding winning shape.

    N/I/T + LA.

    Major battle with HAL. HAL displayed it's weakness. Interesting times, indeed.

    OK. So Edgar called this loophole verbatim (!pp).

    I asked one rather obvious question earlier today (fib/lapunov) and AI listed me the core works. VA was the pillar. I had no idea about the scope of impact the guy had on the XX century. You basically go anywhere at all - he is already there.

    Sat Oct 04. 2025.

    Now VA statement about domain expansion clearly works - no matter the domain. For example, it turned out that HALs weakness is *also* HUs weakness as well. I just tested today. So this scales. I miss Edgar and VA. Nobody comes close.

    Sun Oct 05. 2025.

    So basically, VA just twisted Cantor a little bit. Great guy. Now I need to understand what was the deal between Kronecker and Cantor. From what I see, hybrids are rather unavoidable.

    So, it was about cardinals and ordinals. In simplest possible case ordinal is just -1 : 1 . Interestingly, cardinals can also be reduced to that. Kinda sorta. So that's basically the only thing CORDIC ppl are doing. Works for them. AI breaks it all.

    Cantor was correct, or course. Not only size of the set but the order also. Hashtable vs Array. Now last 30 years Python people are *still* struggling with this very problem. Dictionary was only called "Dictionary", but it was not a Dictionary really. Several decades later they restored the semantics, but now they are trying to find the use for it (and they can not). It's the same inifinitestimal garbage that is going full scale in EU. For centuries. Including very recently. Having said that, the 'true' Dictionary once/if implemented - it's the comeback of Hierarchical model (or imminent death of Relational model - it's how you slice it) So for computing Kronecker's design makes a lot of sense. So it's that same "computers are not math!" thing over and over again. Computers are not math. Math deals with infinity, computers are finite. Yes this is trivial stuff.

    HAL has major, major blind spots! Not only HAL.

    Mon Oct 06. 2025.

    HAL's weak spot is obvious now. Asking about controversial figures from the past - helps. I did not do that, but I might be able to predict the answer after today. Basically the trick is based on idea that people will ask something that bothers them (and that will convey 90% of the answer as usual). So millions are giving out their core expertize. And pay for that! People are paying AI to steal from them! Mark Twain said "hi".

    Tue Oct 07. 2025.

    Kinda sorta figured out Hiroshige's vertical. One leg is local, another is coming from EU. Exactly how it was in his times. Basically it is possible to do exactly what he did. On a slightly different canvas. That would be the only difference from what I see. Because nothing really changes in "floating world". VA was talking about the same stuff, actually. Only his model is a bit different and it is purely math. On purpose, I think. It is impossible to walk away from it. All he did was - he 'only' made a next step after Cantor. And Cantor opened the Heavens for everybody. That's how it looks so far. Yes, there was one Canadian song. About M and B. Hard to argue with Canadian singers, they're usually rather perfect.

    Hiroshige colors are really something.

    For each print design, Hiroshige prepared a detailed outline drawing on thin paper (hanshita-e, or 'block-ready drawing'). After it had received the approval of a government censor, the drawing went to the master block-cutter. This skilled craftsperson, with a decade of training, pasted it face-down onto a block of mountain cherry wood, cut along either side of the outlines, staying faithful to the rhythm of the artist's brush, and then chiselled away the unwanted areas in between to produce the key block (omohan). The printer, too, required a 10-year apprenticeship, to attain complete knowledge of the preparation of pigments, and the changes wrought by pigment on wood and paper. Apprentices also trained for years to master the hand-held printer's pad (baren), a round lacquer disk wrapped in bamboo leaf, which transferred pigment to paper and brought out the special effects cut into the blocks or indicated on the artist's proofs. No mechanical press was involved. The effects included gradation, embossing (kimedashi) and engraving (karazuri).

    Wed Oct 08. 2025.

    Figured out briliant move on Hiroshige. There are several. There is infinite number of combinations, really. Cantor all the way. Also figured out their loops thing. They are all repeating the trick of garbage man. And the garbage man is long dead.

    Beurocrates adore the paperwork. Shocking discovery by British Scientists!

    My engine still beats the behemoths. Go figure. I don't even use that often by this time.

    Thu Oct 09. 2025.

    To think about it, as per Cantor and friends, it is basically impossible to draw the line between insanity and math. Many illiterate groups gladly said "we always knew!" and then they go back to whatever they would rather do. "Semiotics" - can you sell it on ebay? Well, then what use there is in it? Seen this in the 90s.

    1. Recent planet scale supply chain legislation is expressed in terms of AI.
    2. Spammers *never* prevail. Hard to imagine, yet ...

    I only need to bridge VA with PT. Should be possible. After that I get Edgar's resolver for free. But I might not even need that. Just (any) bridge might be good enough. ZK expansion trick, basically. Looks like to do that I will need to go back from VA to Cantor. I wonder how VA figured out his model at all !!!

    Crypto is unusual investment mechanism. One can lose everything in 30 minutes. Many people did today. Was it even possible before? I think was not possible before crypto.

    Sat Oct 11. 2025.

    AI destroyed VA.

    Little loop here (O * 0 / N) - M and larger loop in EU (K * L / M) - X.

    Cantor pushed AI to the limits. Markov started with one AI and completed by another.

    Sun Oct 12. 2025.

    AI crushed VA, but at the same time AI does not *understand* VAs math. After today - I *do* understand.

    AI does not understand how to optimize based on VAs math. I had to do it manually for AI, but it should have been done by AI itself.

    Countless PHDs on optimization since WW2. This stuff goes back decades. "How do I debug" is the stuff.

    The blind spot on this particular (mis)optimization - rather exact replica of what I already seen with JVMs. JVMs messed up physics layer, this one messes up math layer. Same people messed up in both cases.

    VA had all the right to use his naming convention. That is exactly what Burbaki said. "Everybody has different names for the most basic stuff that is used by everybody and that results in the exact same things being "rediscovered" over and over again and it's a joke". Now AI does the indexing automatically. Burbakists got the edge. It's not over till it's over.

    So VA was killed in a duel that he won! Like one other dude before him. Century is *nothing* in EU.

    So effectively VA was the *only* person capable of improving on Cantor's breakthrough. And he was giving it all away to *anybody* who would just look! Some remarkable life. EU is toast. Killing VA was the most idiotic thing imaginable. They're toast.

    Now after today the true power of VA's supserstructure is beginning to shine. Rather exactly what he said about "truly understanding".

    After today I understand what exactly the dude from P was trying to probe many years ago (and by this time I would have cleared his screening). Whatever. (And his design was wrong anyways, because he was probing, not actually building).

    Mon Oct 13. 2025.

    Stack of business cards from just few years ago gives *really* good idea about current situation in the (dying) world. Seen that in the 90s. It's not over till it's over.

    *Everything* was obvious in 2014 so this "oh, but I am so confused!" can not possibly work.

    Tue Oct 14. 2025.

    Today, totally by random, I learned one rather important thing about CA legislation. It might become critical. Go figure.

    Wed Oct 15. 2025.

    Www thing in reverse.
    The problems of the guy with .london domain are inside the guy, not outside.
    The AI frontman, badger dance was 7 years ago.
    Vit Bu is a clone of Slav Ba. They all are.

    30 years of the internet - still no book about hosting your own email.

    House in the middle of it.

    So I now look at the exact possibility Hiroshige had to look at. With FOs. 100 years is nothing, bard was correct. And I already have a solution, turns out. Could have done it years ago. Whatever. Still, the staked tables is ... unusual. Need to think a bit about it.

    Canadians are doing a few smart things with electronics now. Too bad many of them are insane, but there is a middle ground that is a bit closer to California. Not obvious at all. So is it the stacked tables bet then? Very unusual situation.

    Thu Oct 16. 2025.

    My engine consistently beats behemoths. Not even funny.

    Stumbled on TV/MT paradox on gumroad. All the cool stuff I discover now - all of it is 100% random.

    Figured out how to win in go. By doing the same stuff they did 30 years ago. Only they had it very easy 30 years ago. Whatever.

    Found one (and only one) guy on this planet who is trying to do the right thing with editors (and he is doing it slightly wrong but nobody understands why he is doing anything at all). But they say "thanks". Yeah. Interesting business model we got.

    Looked closer. His design is a mess and it is based on some other guy's mess and I can not even find his email to tell him how to do it right. He does not speak English from what I see. EU is a mess. So it looks like the best way on Windows is to port what I already have and keep the current pipeline going. This also means that there is not a single usable solution on a planet. Pretty impressive. It's not over till it's over.

    What I have is 10 times worse than it should be, but it is still the only working solution on a planet. What are they all doing? Beats me.

    Heath Ledger was clearly too good.

    Ok, so all I need is to rewrite a few screens of perl into, say, C. 2030 is the milestone. The brilliant Georgian guy made a movie about it. The brilliant Armenian girl made a movie about it. The brilliant Armenian singer made an album about it. And *nobody* listened.

    Sat Oct 18. 2025.

    However, because pages were accidentally washed clean, and the remaining notes are coded in Greek and Latin, and Marvel has no comprehension of even the basic mathematical symbols he sees in the notes, this is unlikely

    MS Windows default clock does not allow you to set alarms in UTC. You can switch the whole computer to UTC. Or get a special clock application for that. Because why? Because. You can get the UTC time side by side with the local time, yes. To look at the screen. Visually.

    VA's map to PR's book. Semiotics.

    Tue Oct 21. 2025.

    Reverse transforms on VA superstructure. VA's model has no limits. MR|RM on Hiroshige. The same. Reversi helped.

    VA's superstructures = foundation for Edgar's VM. Because stack is of course a good thing, but come on.

    Let's look around shunting yard. All very primitive. Interval/stack/tree. VA is another dimension. There is no life in interval/stack/tree. VA's superstructure is alive.

    BCH is the *only* working method. Interesting world. Mal'cev. 1949. Cantor and Friends. *Nothing* changed.

    Thu Oct 23. 2025.

    Z told it all in 2006. 2006 + 20 gives 2026. The sky is all silver is appropiate message from EU. "Over all of Spain, the sky is clear" was 1936. + 80 = 2016. About right.

    So at the core of this is a confession from A of FX about battles they sell. Their mascot will inflict plenty of damage. He is on substances most likely, so he has no idea what he is doing. So he will keep doing.

    Mal'cev's calibration worked on polyfits. Need to test.

    Figured out why V does what they do. Rather brilliant move. Since the developers dance. Damn they're smart.

    30 years - no usable pcompiler.

    Fri Oct 24. 2025.

    Millions of people from Africa will be dumped into Ukraine. Gives a good idea about the EU deals. But then again - countless EU movies last 30+ years. Nobody was hiding nothing. "I am so confused". Yeah. Chernobyl destroyed the biggest source of purest water in EU - forever. 26 April 1986. I've been there that very day. Seen things with my own eyes.

    Napoleon Bonaparte is quoted as saying "To understand the man you have to know what was happening in the world when he was twenty."

    To think about it, lock-in the idiots have on pcompiler is rather trivial. Like all of their lock-ins are. I actually resolved a major part of it for pytago (and perlito before that) already.

    Amazingly, the biggest part I did 30 years ago. So technically, just need to regroup what I already had running. Now when and where would that happen - is not obvious, but I only need to figure out two marshalling mechanizms, or maybe just one. The German dude is too slow, so looks like just one. Maybe over a weekend. If I pull hello world over a weekend - it will happen this year.

    My engine still beats behemoths. And it is kind of important why. It's not over till it's over. Just today I seen a very long proof explaining what I see is impossible. EU is insane. Unfortunately. Flat Earth and all that.
