Politics for Poets

This arcane website . . .

Summertime is here, on the lawn and in the garden.

Hummingbird dive bombs the zinnia! Bumblebee dive bombs the hummingbird. Rabbits eat the Zinnia like lettace, sampleing it, and maybe tassing it asside if it's not to here liking. I say 'her' because she was accompanied by an even tinier bunny.

 how long?
 . . . how    
        long ? ? ? 
 

speak it out loud! I read that when people would read the inscriptions or scrolls, back 2000 years ago, that they didn't do it silently. Perhaps that a bit of a strech? how could someone know? maybe sometimes they did read it silently. But if someone else was there?

I guess it's far more dramatic to read things out loud. Silent comprehension usuling isn't lacking, it's just that pepole simply didn't really spend the time to attend to the material. They didn't do the reading assignment.

The purpose for taking notes is to be able to review the notes. I used to feel deficient if I didn't have all the notes. Often times the solutions to the very vexing test questions would be mapped out by the professor. You had to go to all the classes. And notes were important. But when studying I didn't read it outloud.

Repetition is the key to learning. And a real use for the material. When reviewing methods for selecting python colors I asked the question 'doesn't this already exist? someone must have already solved this. And that was the case. So now I can get into the mindset of the method: why is the solution for the color selection devised in the way that it is devised? Well, its' curious. And it's terse if you haven't picked up the background material. Python has a brillience in it's design that slices through (a python pun) the BS of cocky crap-methods of hacks. They have millions (must be millions) of minds using the code, and reviewing the code, and saying 'here, here is code that is better because . . .' and then they profile it.

When I study software I sometimes find myself reading it outloud. But usually no. For me the logic of thinking in sample space for software is because the continuous doesn't exist on a computer. The computer can only have a slice of what could be concieved. how so? It's a FIFO, for sure, in very many ways. you only have some much memory, you only have some much color. and if you're screen says it can display 15 million different colors, can you eye tell the difference? so the whole thing is rather false and always a sample, and not actual. A flower. the photograph of a flower. A film of a flower waving in the sun light. The computer simulation of a flower . . . . some people see the flower as it's symbol. And they are imprecise and don't say 'he sent a picture of a. . . ' but 'he sent a . . . '

Oh, but now I am being imprecise. Who? who says that? who talks or emails that kind of thing? hardly no one? someone in my imagination!!!

So that's how I had an edge, in my own mind, realizing that we all do that constantly, even when we try not to. Orwell would talk about propaganda and how to cut through the kruft of poor word choices, and the assumptions associated with various terminologies. Some understand that and try to dominate the dialect, and only allow words that they select, because of their precarious double-meanings? (precarious double meanings? the meaning can be easily misinterpreted by users of the language in expert in word selection, meaning, and inversion through coersion and eggregiouis psychological operations . . . .

See how complicated it is? Would you really read any farther along into this if I keep going on with it?

We do have meaning, even through the nonsense

If you don't get what a writer or commentator is doing, you have a right to move on to different material. The new way in politics is the ban-hammer. They don't like your take on the situation and they prevent you from using their venue. That's facebook and others, who should really know better. Perhaps my describing it was seen as condoning ? they ought to be more mature if they run a chat room? who they? they know who they are.

change yourself

And the world changes around you

November Glooms and fog . . . are months away!

It's July, it's been humid. Very hot some days. The oppressive humidity hits you as you leave the house when the storms are here.
