Sigh. Been waiting in this here hospital day surgery unit for four hours now (for a 30 minute procedure).

i had a lot of thoughts in response to this correct post https://types.pl/@amy/117203193831178704

as of late i have begun to feel that the imaginary component of so-called "complex" numbers is strikingly similar to irrationality and indeed that the "unique" factorization into prime integers or polynomials with integer coefficients is much closer to a parlor trick than a rigid basis for classification

like the irrationals are only secondarily "irrational" and more simply "antipolynomial" i feel like? i read an attempted motivation for the irrationality of sqrt(2) arising from euclidean-era geometry recently but i didn't really buy it since i don't feel "exactness" or "equality" is really a "natural" concept outside of the cartesian plane, which itself feels remarkably circular in definition?

like if even the prime numbers refuse to decompose their own sequential structure into any kind of rhythmic progression, maybe that's because "solutions among the rationals" is requiring the answer be sufficiently *un*interesting?

learning much more about group theory recently and i totally do accept that the generating graph of modular exponentiations in a finite field is intrinsically meaningful to study even if it's not a "nice" answer for my purposes. but finding that finite fields F_q for primes p < q s.t. q = 2p + 1 are not just a meme way to generate new primes at will (which i didn't know you could do????) but are also optimally resistant to computational factorization attacks on the discrete log problem has me feeling like twin primes just aren't very interesting?

like if generating the next prime is unsolvable but just finding a later prime is both simple and deeply meaningful, maybe that's because a difference of integer +k is not intrinsically meaningful except as a phase offset wiithin a periodic context?

like forget sqrt(-1), the really unnatural "point at infinity" seems to be the integer +1, since that's precisely what's necessary for the infinitude of primes!!!

@2003MugishaPhocit Where's that right hand coming from!? And a typo in the biggest word on the poster?

Working on making public over a decade of dispatch posts, one by one, and indexing them (or at least the ones that aren’t lost for all time) so they’re searchable and findable.

I’m working slowly through them, and it’s making me kinda sad that I’m managing to do so only now that the overwhelming majority of “readers” are likely to be machinic. : . (

We Mastodon users have done it again!

After 10,000 views of my latest video, the stats show that the external viewers arrive from

Mastodon 50 %
Facebook 6 %
Bluesky 2 %
Threads 0.4 %

When there is an algorithm, corporations decide whether posts with links to the competing platform like YouTube are visible to other users.

When there is no algorithm, we the users decide what is boosted.

Choose Mastodon! ♥️🐘

Addio piccola Lara, per tre anni e mezzo sei stata la luce dei miei occhi. Una vipera ha deciso che non doveva più essere così.

Fate tutte le carezze che riuscite ai vostri cani finché ci sono.

It's not just me, this is an insane way to talk about source code right? Work suddenly became me reading 20 pages of this stuff every day I've never been so tired.

@raucao If you don't see a huge issue in a German man from the 1800s whos most known for illustrations of birds being the one to illustrate the general description of indigenous peoples I fear there isn't much I can do to persuade you.

Since the Proton fanbois are out in force again after 1Password's latest problematic decision, a reminder that they have an even longer documented history of bad decisions.

Find something that isn't Proton, when looking for alternatives, and skip that Medium post the apologists like to link to.
