Thanks, Hblade.
So:
REASONS ITS COOLReason 1When I post stuff, i never do anything to it at all, except for make new paragraphs,
occasionally
underline or
highlight something, or throw in a picture.
But mostly i just type everything out endlessly, like i was Ben Stein.
It never occurs to me to spice it up.
Reason 2Because I don't care about spicing things up, i don't know how. I never pay
attention to the fonts or breaks or any of this stuff on other posts.
I'm just looking to see what the text says. Looking for the data.
Since i don't personally care, i don't know what font to use - how
big?
Colored or not? How often do i use big text? etc. etc.
Simple questions, but to me they're not. Kinda like if i asked most of you 'how often do you
feed a pet fruit bat each day?' and if you don't own a fruit bat, you have no idea what the
answer is, do you? Its probably something simple like 'once'. But I'm sure if you got one, you'd at
least check on google before just guessing how much to feed him.
Reason 3So it's good to get ideas from other people, and realize that no one can
understand the world only using science and math; there is singular value
to things - art, music, people, ideas - uniqueness that the mathematician,
scientist, and programmer often overlook.
And you just learned me something - that I should put more thought
into making my posts easier for others to read. I should treat them more like
art and less like math. And all it takes is a few simple size=150 and locations
of topic headers to make it a better post, so long as they're in the right
places.
Final ThoughtsEvery thing we do has some singularity value to it;
each moment only happens
once, in all of eternity, right now only happens once. It is important to make
the best of it!
Posting ideas and questions to a
learning forum like this one is one of the best things
a person can do to make the world a better place. It is this kind of interaction
that we do over the internet that is taking us into the future faster and faster -
taking us toward that place of dreams when we can escape war, disease, hunger,
and ignorance.
