you want my patronage?
fool!
i am a harbinger of failure!
everything i touch becomes unpopular!
mwahahaha!!!
you know that strange feeling you get when you learn two seemingly unrelated things are actually very tightly correlated, and may have been causing most of the problems in your life?
well...
How Serotonin Level Fluctuation Affects the Effectiveness of Treatment in Irritable Bowel Syndrome
apparently antidepressants (SSRIs) reduce symptoms, on average 55% of the time, compared to 33% with placebo.
from what i understand, it has to do with the number of serotonin re-uptake receptors in the intestine, which are the things that remove serotonin. it goes something like this:
a few receptors -> much serotonin -> normal digestion
more receptors -> less serotonin -> diarrhea
even more receptors -> wayyy less serotonin -> constipation
so basically, SSRIs (short for selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) block the re-uptake receptors, which slows serotonin removal, allowing serotonin to build up to normal levels and reduce depression... and also reduces IBS symptoms.
i think?
anyway, imagine having a history of depression and also gastrointestinal problems, and then learning the two are highly correlated.
i have an idea for a computer language
i've decided on a byte as the unit of information, similar to a glyph for writing systems
computers think using numbers and math and state, right? so the language is predicated on the idea that all things can be composed of numbers and functions and objects. similar to some written languages where the alphabet is both the letters and the number system.
some number systems use both addition and multiplication to represent numbers, so what if i add signed numbers? by adding negatives, i also get subtraction. which means polynomials, and series functions, and integrals can all be built into the language's alphabet.
the basic idea is, "what would machine language look like if it could be created by computer-like creatures?" similar to how spoken or written languages are created by humans.
now i apply the idea of state or memory to a language. it should be analogous to how computers actually operate. my current idea is sentences can be thought of as local scope, aka the stack. individual statements then would be like words, with the word separator (analogous to space) acting like semicolon or newline. the whole language is read like a stream of bytes, like we think of a line of text, but there needs to be a way to loop sentences (either goto or reverse direction or something else).
perhaps parallel sentences? if a sentence is cut in two by a loop operator, then the second part of the sentence represents going back to the start of the sentence, the functor that the loop is iterating on, including the exit condition. then a sentence would be like a block or single layer of scope, because entering a block is just like calling a local function, and thus end of sentence is a return statement. each paragraph is a functor, composed of one or more functions and state, like a class.
this makes sense both as a language that computers use for themselves, and also a programming language that humans would be able to understand pretty well. will study this further.
perhaps this is a writing system made later by humans in an attempt to decode the language of computers? are computers like plants in this world? maybe they're seen as a natural connective media like mycelium, or a basic building block of life like bacteria, or even rocks like the evolution of a grey goo event long ago? are they even called computers?
debating whether to start writing fanfic
new era of my blog!
i have a separate account for reblogs!
does this mean i'm no longer insane? (i hope not)
@madbonemanreblogs
16yo me had it all figured out.
irl troll physics. image on the back of the page is a building powered by thunderstorms (obviously would be super tall, so build the top half out of airships so it stays upright).
minecraft recipe book (2012 edition).
damn.
translation: "if physicists are so concerned about fusion reactors leaking plasma, why don't they link them together so one reactor leaks into the other? for example [image]." the image on the back is the same concept, but instead we funnel the leakage back into the same reactor.
tiritium is rare so obviously we should aim for deuterium fusion. that, or i was concerned about the gamma and neutron radiation. the image on the back is a particle accelerator.
design a rocket like a plant, so when it lands it can gather resources for the occupants of the building it turns into. this is clearly a one-way trip.
Aight Yall
It's that time of week again
Gonna [[SLAM]] THREE SIMULTANEOUS TWITCH STREAMS directly into my veinnnnnnnz
