Iran Japan Hungary Czech Poland Chile Romania Iceland. fucking postmodern hypertext, like. And let's stick a funny cyan sharp noise saudade on top of that, as well.

I prefer ambiguity to dualism (although this is not a dichotomy that makes sense - in case we assume it is one). I should know more about Descartes besides the fact that I've ended up opposing his particular flavor of dualism. Knowing he invented analytical geometry doesn't really count. I really wish I had enough patience to study enough mathematics to actually understand stuff such as fuzzy logic and topology, but I don't. Computer science, too, and programming. Mathematical notation and typography is fun, not least because I usually just skip anything more complicated than ax²+bx+c=0... ie. like anyone childish enough, I'm curious about things I don't really understand (because they're magic, like). Set theory is fun. I wish I could read some "real" stuff about mathematics and not some dumbed-down popularized fodder. I've lost all hope for modern physics, already, although I'm too bored with ontology to be really interested in it.

From browsing WardsWiki, I think I should know more about pattern languages. I also, less specifically, should know more about most of the things this page links to.
