Over 21 years in perfect isolation and I still do not need conversations with people
Grown weary of Twitter (ridiculously branded now as "X"), making this a blog-post later
I make comments sometimes but never trying to start convo

What I wonder about is whether that guy is using a custom algorithm to summarize the code-pattern I have described so expertly to you, the public masses with intellectual curiosity enough to try to understand
I have done exactly the same thing with summaries
You don't know what it means until I publish the details

Somewhere I wrote about the context of that scene with my original-work code-pattern
Cannot at the moment recall precise words I used to find it again
Does not predict future, creates opportunity for pattern

Quotes
Louise Banks: But now I'm not so sure I believe in beginnings and endings. There are days that define your story beyond your life. Like the day they arrived.

Quotes
Ian Donnelly: If you immerse yourself into a foreign language, then you can actually rewire your brain.

Arrival (2016)
Quotes
Louise Banks: The weapon is their language. They gave it all to us. Do you understand what that means?
Colonel Weber: So we can learn heptapod. If we survive.
Louise Banks: If you learn it, when you really learn it, you begin to perceive time the way that they do. So you can see what's to come. But time, it isn't the same for them. It's non-linear.
Arrival (2016)
China mobilized forces.
And now, Russia's
following suit.
Shang's about to
start something.
Following suit. Suits.
Suits, honor, flowers...
Colonel, those are
all tile sets in mah-jongg.
God, are they...
Are they using a game to
converse with their heptapods?
Maybe. Why?
Louise Banks: Let's say that I taught them Chess instead of English. Every conversation would be a game. Every idea expressed through opposition, victory, defeat. You see the problem? If all I ever gave you was a hammer...
Colonel Weber: Everything's a nail.
The Mist (2007)
Mrs. Carmody: You! You! Don't you know by now? Don't you know the truth? We are being punished. For what? For going against the will of God! For going against His forbidden rules of old! Walking on the Moon! Yes! Yes!
The Mist (2007)
Quotes
Mrs. Carmody: Well maybe your window turned out to be a door. Isn't it?
Army Private Wayne Jessup: Not my door! It's the scientists!
Mrs. Carmody: [sarcastically] Oh, the scientists.
Army Private Wayne Jessup: Yes, the scientists!
