RIP Oliver Tree

 Oliver Tree Nickell (1993-2026) has died, and we shall pay our respects. In a helicopter crash, which was recorded on CCTV cameras, the famous singer sporadically died after the impact burned him to a crisp. Argentine YouTuber Gaspar Prim Diaz , or Gaspi , who was with Tree, died too. The crash, which is under investigation, also killed: Lucas A. Vignale, Argentine screenwriter Lucas Brito Chavez, music producer native to Brazil Alexandre Souza, one of the pilots, and Charles Marsillac, the other pilot, whom I presume is French. How I feel Personally, this is the OceanGate incident all over again, except it killed six people, and happened in the air, not underwater. Both incidents also had one person I really liked; in the case of the OceanGate incident, Shahzada Dawood, who was Pakistani (like me), and for that helicopter crash, Oliver Tree. I may not have heard his music until last year, but I've still committed to the listening. I hope Oliver Tree is up there in Heaven with his...

Math is the weirdest thing ever

 Mathematics is among the most odd of things. TREE(1) = 1, TREE(2) = 3, but TREE(3) equals a number so big if I copy-pasted it in this blog post, my Chromebook would die out. Here are some other cool tidbits: Pi's infinite milestones Pi is an irrational number, and it's just like the Library of Babel, containing every possible sequence of numbers. And let's be honest - your phone number is nested in there somewhere... but math was discovered, not invented. So, did God invent pi, by any chance, with the intent of putting your number on the 1,424,936,256,286,337th digit of pi? No, it's all random digits that don't truly end. And like I said, nobody, not even God, invented math: it was instead, discovered. And going back to the first sentence, assuming we can convert numbers to letters through alphanumerization (e.g. a=1, b=2, c=3, j=10, y=25, z=26), this means that pi has every piece of text that was written, is currently being written, will be written, and will never...

Proof x = 1 with no prior determining

I'll try and prove that x = 1 without a question to solve. Here we go. The number line is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, you get the idea. But we will only pick 1 and 2. Let's add them in one group: [1, 2]. Now add 3 and 4: [3, 4]. [x, y] [z, w] will equal (x * y) * (z * w) in this case. Swap 2 and 1, because if we don't we will unconsciously determine, x equals 1. We need to make this a long-term effort instead of determining x = 1 in one minute and thirty-three seconds. So, (2 * 1) * (3 * 4). Now, let's start with 2 * 1, which is 2. The rule is, x * 1 = x (no exceptions). 3 * 4 is 12. 12 * 2 is 24. But 24 doesn't equal 1. That's where we up the ante. Let [2, 1] [3, 4] = y. Let [2,1]^[3,4] = z. In most cases of algebra, x * y = z, but this time, y * z = x. We know y = 24. Since [2,1] is 2 and [3,4] is 12, we get 2^12. We multiply two by itself, then the new answer twelve times. So: 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 1024 2048 4096 So z = 4096. In which case, y * z, or 24 * 4096 does n...

Happy April

 Happy April. Where I live, it's March 31st, 2026, when I'm typing this, so tomorrow I'd go to sleep and WAKE UP . As beautiful as it may sound, the first day is April Fool's Day, so you might not be PLEASE d from this WAKE - UP . You can pretend you are disabled and finally feel that satisfying grip of crutches, and then drop everything and yell "April Fools!" (Or if you're in France/Quebec, "Poisson d'Avril/April Fish!", in which the prank will be different: a fish taped on an unsuspecting person's back.) But what do you do with the crutches? That toilet-paper cast? How do they GET OUT   OF YOUR workplace? It's like a LONG-TERM DREAM . Like, P LEASE!   I'M BEGGING YOU , DO NOT continue this prank and STAY focused HERE , because then your colleagues and boss will think YOU ARE  not faking it. And if your leg is seriously hurt, I'm sorry for you. So when you fall asleep tomorrow and wander IN A DREAM , you will notice that thi...

My thoughts on LinkGuru, the new app in town

I just discovered LinkGuru, and the app's pretty good. Here's the backstory behind it. History As the friend of Arjun Reddy (a web developer not to be confused with a movie), he told me everything about the app. In 2017, Arjun, after feeling motivated by a lecture, thought, "Why not make an app?" A prototype app called Smart Videos went through, but did not make the cut. He tweaked some of the app's code and eventually released a beta version of LinkGuru with premade videos by the developer. He eventually got tired of making his own videos and pulled trending videos from the Internet, and by 2018, the number of monthly active users rose to approximately 558,000.   Now, it's 2026, and, what do you know, it has grown to a number over the specific figure of 660,132, according to recent data. LinkGuru now supports features like: pulling images from the Web, making YOUR own videos and images, manual parental controls and AI moderation which is good for the system. ...

Jukebox is my new favorite

 I just created an almost-24/7 unofficial radio station at Jukebox, accessible at jukebox.today. And goodness me! What else can I say about this delightful music hosting service with NO ADS AT ALL?! Jukebox is a free music player for other people to join. You can listen to music and chat, while also having fun and suggesting songs. And that radio station I mentioned in the intro? It's available here . I call it 98.3 toInfinity. It's an amazing thing, this station. So, yeah! That's Jukebox. This just goes to show that you can make do with what you already have, and it might be better than what the pros use. Free radio stations for all, end of story.
