  • Path and goal

    When you push beyond your limits, the path matters as much as the goal.

  • Idea of perfection in human mind

    Human being is far from perfect; we are only a waypoint in life’s long ascent.

    So what, then, is truly perfect? Nothing—the universe itself is not flawless.

    Yet perfection does appear in one place, at least in form of an idea: in the human mind.

    Even if it is often only in the form of illusions, the mind itself—apparently—can create perfection; and though it is not always embodied in reality, the mere fact that the mind can sense it is interesting in itself.

  • Hard work and success

    Success is rarely about hard work. In most cases, it highly depends on luck, or being in the right place at the right time in the right condition, or about spotting a scheme, talent, opportunity, or niche—and grabbing it fast.

    Best moves are guided by talent or luck, very rarely by grinding.

  • Dual nature of the world

    Where there are friends, there will be enemies.

    Where there is good, there will be evil.


    Where there is something good, something bad will follow.

    So it was, is, and will be—don’t try to idealize the other side; the dual nature of the world… just accept it. These two sides attract and stir each other. That is the motion of the world, it’s a part of its engine.

  • The Edge of Knowing

    I

    It’s a wall — you won’t know who’s behind it until you truly look. Guessing is pointless; it’s too random.

    And perhaps it’s meant to be this way: that we do not know, but feel instead.

    Theorizing about what lies beyond the known universe halts the mind — without experience, it has no ground to move.

    Speculation without contact is blindness.

    Only a dishonest mind insists on imagining what cannot yet be touched. We are bound to our field of view.

    II

    Knowledge doesn’t rise from thought alone — it advances through concrete, lived experience.

    What we live becomes what we know.

    Pure constructions of the mind rarely align with reality; without direct contact, we remain adrift.

    There is nothing “there” — until something real is brought to meet it. it cannot be invented — it must be met through experience.

    III

    Humanity is not a random event. Any thinking creature is the natural unfolding of life itself.

    Given the right conditions, sooner or later, a being emerges — one whose will turns toward understanding.

    On a broad scale, the meaning of life is simple: to comprehend what lies beyond our current reach.

    Millions of paths and generations move toward that.

    Each small step — grounded in time, knowledge, and experience — builds the way forward.

    This is what progress means: not imagining the path, but walking it.

  • Nationalism

    Nationalism — and the very idea of a ‘nation’ — carries more flaws than benefits. It’s been used to manipulate the masses countless times; in fact, it was crafted for that very purpose. I don’t associate myself with anything like that. Personal identification with grand artificial abstractions often distorts one’s sense of truth and undermines flexibility. I prefer something more grounded: society.

  • Tech Notions

    Keep your data off big tech servers — they’ll betray you as soon as profits fall

    Local storage & backups matters more than ever

  • Simplicity and clarity

    Whenever possible, aim for simplicity and clarity in everything

  • Herd Mentality

    Herd mentality in humans blurs clarity, weakening the precision needed as complexity grows. Calm, open detachment—not pride—helps keep a clear view for better decisions.

  • Patterns

    At the heart of every neural network lies a simple act — recognizing patterns across oceans of data.

    The machine finds, but it does not yet truly see what it finds.

    It is our history, our suffering, our bond with reality that give meaning to what we see.

  • Adaptive Spirit

    People don’t grow poor because of new tech like AI — they grow poor chasing the illusion of stability. Life was never meant to be stable. We were made to adapt, to face change. The more the world shifts, the more flexible you have to be. Minimalism, stoicism, the readiness to lose everything — and to work hard without complaint — that’s what truly helps. Not comfort. Not control. Just resilience.

  • Masses

    The more elevated your spirit, the more repellent you are to the masses — because the masses only worship reflections of themselves

  • Collective guilt

    Where everyone is to blame, no one is guilty; collective guilt is best guarantee against the discovery of the real culprits.

  • First comes nothing

    Why is there something in the world? Because pure nothingness is unstable. Yet first comes nothing—something is derivative.

  • Quality in work: know when to stop

    Most interesting thing about striving for quality in work is to be able not to do something… know when to stop, to feel when it’s enough. This requires honesty and a sharp, critical eye.

  • The core of creative work

    Smooth, efficient flow is essential for the core of creative work. The work must be quick yet focused — distractions or slowness point to decline. Details can always be refined later.

  • (External) Value Validation

    To achieve success with broad audience, it’s not about the quality of the product — it’s about how heavily it’s been promoted.

    In the eyes of an average person, the value isn’t determined by the real insight, rather by external validation & authority: it’s just faster.

    For me it’s all very simple: the more complicated it becomes, the more fragile it will be.

  • Beauty

    What is beauty? Why do some faces captivate one person but not another?

    Beauty is always partly subjective — shaped by the observer’s inner world.

    Can a computer create a beautiful girl? Maybe. But usually, it’s just an attractive one. True beauty reflects something personal — something uniquely yours.
