Thoughtful in Selah

Please read the following post like I am yelling everything as loud as I possibly can.

(If I could cuss most of this post would be in asterisks)

You really know how to grind me down to my last nerve. ALL OF YOU! The Mighty Cactus was right. I can't stand any of you sometimes. You called my cell phone so I answer it and you say to me to hang up so you can show a whole group of people my voicemail greeting. I'm not stupid and I know what you were doing. You were saying how ridiculous is this? Isn't this so funny? LET'S JUST ALL MAKE FUN OF ME!!! I'M SICK OF IT!!!!!! So I hang up and you call again. So I hang up again. You kept calling 15 times! Don't you get the picture? I'm surprised you could be so stupid to realize that I've been ignoring your phone calls for the past month and a half. There is a reason why my phone always goes to voicemail. And when I hit the ignore button, that doesn't mean call again. So then later someone else calls just to annoy me. Carrying on a stupid conversation about NOTHING!

I have tried to tell you nicely but it just isn't working....

Today is my 30th blog post. I feel special. However this is not the reason why I am posting. I have an announcment. I have started a new blog. Now I'm not moving to it and forgetting this one, I have started a new one for a reason. With all my ramblings of geeky and technical things I have decided to put those on a blog all their own so Exquisite and Rockfist and anyone else who feels disappointed when I update with those don't have to feel that way anymore. (Plus you don't have to get lost trying to read my posts on here). So now this blog is just general. If you would like to check out my new blog it is:

http://geek--tech.blogspot.com

Somebody already stole geektech and someone else stole geek-tech so I just put two hyphens in there. DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING DID YOU?!!!?! lol. Well there you go. Now be happy that you don't get headaches reading this site.

On a side note - MAN I'M CONFUSED!!! I've been trying to figure out how to link both my blogs together so I can easily update either one when I sign in. The way I wanted it was so that the blogger welcome page displayed both my accounts. Because google is stupid I can't use the same email address for two blogs. It says that another blog is using that email address. So the way around it is to invite yourself to be an author. I think I messed up because in my profile one of the blogs and its team member have the same address. Same thing on the other profile but it's vice versa. Stupid Google...

This will have to be a quick post because I'm tired and I need to go to sleep.

I'm really extremely happy now because one of my life goals has been completed thanks to the Reader's Digest. You know on those tooth brush commercials where it says "In fact, four out of five dentist recommend the Ultra Sonic - Radio Active Super Duper Teeth Cleansing Apparatus Version 2"? Well that one dentist (or doctor) out of the five that doesn't recommend the product is actually called something. That fifth person is called a plaquack. My life is now one step closer to being complete...

I'm actually kind of disappointed because I found out today that nobody has read my blog recently. I must say, what the junk? This is my third post in two days and who knows how many people still have to catch up to last week. wow...


I suck at life.


I've been thinking again and devised, yet another, theory in which I should enlighten you all. (Don't worry this won't be that complex as this post.)
This actually relates to Lost. So for all the fans out there, you may actually know what I'm talking about.

In Lost, there is a man who gets bits of flash forwards and can always see when this guy is about to die. He has saved his life countless times but tells him that life has a way of self-correcting. So no matter what he does to save this guy's life, he will still end up dying. Now I think about this because of this event:

My dad and I were watching the Cav's basketball game (WOW shocking... Me watching sports) and at the end they lost by one point. (of course the last 37 seconds of the game actually takes 15 minutes in real time). My dad said to me, "If only LaBron had made one more shot then they would have won."

Now I think about this and devise a new theory that things have a way of self-correcting. If LaBron made another shot in the middle of the game, the players would be set up on the court differently creating a new scenario and altering the end result.

Let's try some math here - Say that A + B + C + D + E + F + G = 25
okay, so say that these are a whole bunch of baskets made and their score is 25. If LaBron made one more basket in the middle (making D2) then that would not correctly set up the scenario to score E, F, and G. So the new scoring order is A + B + C + D2 + H + I + J = __<=25(less than or equal to)

So by changing one variable, it can ruin the whole order because other dependent variables are not in the same place yielding different results. So now matter what, the game would have self-corrected and the Cav's still would have lost (even though I was rooting for them)

Do you know how it feels when something your looking forward to doesn't work out and really backfires and blows up in your face?

It happened...

Everything was horrible for awhile but lack of communication does not help anything. We talked about it and we felt better afterwards but then you say one thing that kills the feeling. We have to be split apart. You say that you don't like me and you must be apart from me to keep your mind from going where you don't want it to go. I'll never understand. You cannot split a friendship over your thoughts. It does not make any sense and you're only making me feel worse. I was fine but now everything seems bad. You don't like me, fine, but don't kill my emotions by RUINING a friendship.




GOODBYE FOREVER....

This will be a very geeky post yet very interesting to read.



So all those computer geeks out there, here's a new theory to work on. My new life goal is to create a way for computers to truly generate random information (whether numbers or characters or sets of data).

*COMPUTER LESSON 1*
Computers (in programing) have a procedure to produce "random" numbers. This is based on the number of milliseconds that your computer has been on (Called "System Clock"). This number is technically a decimal and then is multiplied and front end estimated to create a possible number between any two numbers that the programmer sets. (e.g. any number can be generated between 7 and 31) Point in case: A "random" number is actually derived from a mathematical algorithm.

So now how do you get a number from a computer with no math? Good question! This is where the impossible theories come in. As soon as my brother asked me this, I spent thirty seconds thinking and came up with a possible solution that would be more random and less logical than the current random function. Allow me to explain with the use of visual aids.

Say you have an array of data...

(don't pay any attention to the symbols (they're actually suppose to be numbers))

Okay this array was "randomly" created using the random function based on BIOS system clock (the mathematical function).(not really - I just typed it up with paint but this is what it would do if using a procedure to do it. That's another point. Forget it....)


Now we use another random function to shuffle and mix up all these numbers. (Again based on BIOS system clock)
Now the numbers are in a new order which the computer does not know because the chronological order does not follow the original stepping of the BIOS algorithm (did I just lose everyone with that statement?) (In english: the new array does not match the pattern used to create it).

So now we have a halfway random list. Now we use a third random function based on system clock to pinpoint a specific number which cannot be predicted by using any sort of mathematical operation because of randomly random order (yes that is random squared). So say our function returns an X and a Y in this array from the top left corner. The point the computer has specified is (11,25) (eleven down and twenty-five right) Yielding...

3. The computer (IN THEORY) has now returned a fully random value using multiple and complex mathematical equations. Obviously it is not fully logical but uses math outside of chronological patterns of a clock. Hence giving randomness no predictability.

*COMPUTER LESSON 2*
"With random information, computers could make logical decisions that would be equivalent to the intelligence of a five year old, which is outstanding."

The most powerful computer on the planet currently has the intelligence equivalency to about a two year old. It can make decisions based on math, not logic. Using random integers (whole numbers) could change this dramatically because a computer could then learn (artificial intelligence). Say a computer is shown many red objects. After a while it is accustomed to seeing and recognizing red objects. After some time it then knows that it's favorite color is red. Now here's the test: present the computer with two objects, one red and one blue. Now here's the random part. Will the computer be logical and choose it's favorite color, or will it be spontaneous and choose blue because it's decision was based on mathematics? Unfortunately, the question cannot be answered. This is an intelligence question far out of range from current progress but once more mysterious and coding secrets are found, these scenarios can become a reality.

*COMPUTER LESSON 3*
Computers have progressed one hundred times faster than humans. Humans had to go from learning how to make sandals and wooden tools to building sky scrapers. Computers have gone from evaluating 1+0+0+0+1 = 2 to working backwards with logarithms like Log(18)x = 271 (which means 18 to what power equals 271). All of what I have discussed here could be a reality very soon in the future.

Remember that all of this is actually imaginary. These are the logical steps to it all. The computer would not actually create a picture for all to see.

I hope you enjoyed my geeky side for the time being. Sorry to all who are now asleep. By the way - this all came about when I built a "Magic 8-Ball" application to "randomly" give answers to dumb questions.

Yes... I know how to create hyperlinks but I didn't know that you could do it with pictures. So like... HMMM... I could have fun with this!

(click on me)
HAHAHAHAHA

This is cool. Now, I won't put anymore links on here... You guys get screen shots and photo hyperlinks!!!

Okay, I'm done being geeky for the day

I found this game online because I got so bored with nothing to do because it is only exam week...

http://www.shockwave.com/gamelanding/squares2.jsp

I'll tell you the rules so you don't have to sit there and read them from the game...

You are the rotating black square and it is controlled by the mouse. You move around and avoid the red squares and red circles. Your goal is to get all the other BLACK squares but then the game speeds up and gets harder. The BLACK circles will give you help (like slo-mo, invincibility, and other things) Try and see what your highest point value, and number of squares are. Plus the music is cool too so turn up your speakers!
