Meaninglesso
============


I am creating this word ("meaninglesso"), which has the meaning/value of "*is* meaningless".

So it applies as, for example, "It meaninglesso" which means "It is meaningless".  Or, as another example, "Nabitleko meaninglesso" which means "Nabitleko is meaningless".

If a word is meaningless, then we shouldn't apply a "be/is/become".

Cryptography of the Internet - Part 1
=====================================


Now that I have talked about and Private-key Cryptography (Part Base article) and about Public-key Cryptography (Part 0 article), I am writing about the way that GnuPG handles its so called Public-key Cryptography; which should be more accurately described as a Hybrid-type of Cryptography (between and Public-key and Private-key Cryptography).  I call this Hybrid-kind of Cryptography as Session-key Cryptography.

Zero (One) of the problems with (pure) Public-key Cryptography is that it is estimated to be 1000 times slower than Private-key Cryptography.  So, Session-key Cryptography was designed as a way for GnuPG to handle its Public-key Cryptography.  Taking the best out of both other types of Cryptography.

For Session-key Cryptography, GnuPG generates a random string of characters, called a session key.  And, GnuPG applies Private-key Cryptography on the message using this session key as the secret number.

Then, GnuPG uses Public-key Cryptography *only* on that session key (the secret number), by using the Public-key Cryptography's public key of the recipient of the message.

And, both the ciphered message and the ciphered session key are sent to the recipient.

On the recipient side, Public-key Cryptography's private key of the recipient is used to reveal the session key.  And then, the recipient's GnuPG software uses the revealed session key as a Private-key Cryptography's secret number, to decipher the message.  Now the recipient can read the pre-ciphered message.

Session-key Cryptography is an ingenious way that PGPs cryptosystems (such as GnuPG) do employ as its, misleadingly named, Public-key Cryptography.

Expansion
=========


There is, and space-expansion, and goodness-expansion.  The things you *don't like*, you throw it to space (you do a space-expansion on it).  The things you *care* about, you throw it to good (you do a goodness-expansion on it).

There is also the things you like to keep (the things you like to stay) which is different from an expansion.

So, there has to be a good separation between *goodness* and *keeping it*.  Goodness is the things to propagandise about, to spread forward.  Like for me, is the GNU operating system and Free Software.

Modern Linguistic
=================


I have created my own internet logs, created meditations, created (written) a book (available in and physical and digital formats), created a programming language (a Lisp fork), created a spoken language (an Esperantido); so.......

I guess you can call me a full modern linguistic!


PS:

I have also translated software from English to Portuguese.

Soul Mentality
==============


Having a soul mentality is a form of denial of owns human life.

A soul is the invention of a body's value, it is an ether body.  Believing and putting importance on soul, is a way of denial of body; a body that has feelings and has perceptions.

Also, fantasising a soul is the avoidance of the fact that life has a limit.  And that is better to proceed giving importance to being mundanely alive, and discarding value.  Be on *what* is, not be *with* is.

Lali Lambda: lhas
=================


After a while here is an article about simple Lali[0] snippets.

Now, the 'lhas' function, with the help of 'lhas-op'.  'lhas' is a "list has", and 'has' has already been presented.

'lhas' gives 't' if all elements of LST also belong in some elements of LST-WITH, 'n' if LST or LST-WITH is an empty list, 'f' otherwise.

```
(defun lhas-op (lst lst-with)
  (fill
   ((has (car lst) lst-with) 'f)
   ((space lst) (lhas-op (cdr lst) lst-with))
   ('f 't)))

(defun lhas (lst lst-with)
  (fill
   ((algo lst) 'n)
   ((algo lst-with) 'n)
   ('f (lhas-op lst lst-with))))
```

Here is at the Lali REPL:

```
lali&gt; (set 'numerals '(+0 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6 +7 +8 +9))
(+0 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6 +7 +8 +9)
lali&gt; (lhas () 'numerals)
n
lali&gt; (lhas '(+3) 'numerals)
t
lali&gt; (lhas '(+3 +0) 'numerals)
t
lali&gt; (lhas '(+3 a +9) 'numerals)
f
lali&gt; (lhas '(a b) 'numerals)
f
```

Mindfulness Practice
====================


Mindfulness practice has two (three) aspects: wú wéi, breathing, thinking.

Firstly, *Wú wéi*, is to be kept as the basis[0].  Wú wéi means going easy, not forcing (this practice).  So, whenever this practice, of this article, becomes uneasy, you stop doing this mindfulness practice.

Then, *Breathing*, is to try to keep breathing openly, continuously, during this practice.  Continuous breathing.  Sometimes, in everyday life, modern humans stop breathing for doing some actions...  Don't do it, keep breathing.

Lastly, *Thinking*, is thinking about *full*, about *all*, about *group*, about *difference*.  Pick a word, that connects to these concepts, and say this word to yourself -- without speaking it -- once in a while while practicing this Mindfulness.

This concludes this practice's theory.

It is now up to ownself, to try this Mindfulness, and conclude for yourself, if it helps your ownself.

Unix-like People
================


People of Unix-like environments can be summarized into two (three) categories: users, writers, developers.  If you want to make part of this software society you need to have a bit of merit on software.

Below is the education path of software that each of these persons need to know about, each from the beginning to the end, to be a Unix-like person:


[power-user]
man info grep cut find tr sed bash awk

[lambda-user]
man info lisp emacs


[translation-writer]
man info git emacs/vim gettext

[document-writer]
man info emacs/vim git texinfo


[c-developer]
man info intro-to-gcc make autoconf+automake+autoheader+libtool c

[wizard-developer]
man info forth


Choose which Unix person you want to be, and welcome :-) .  I am sure you will have a good time.

Wu Wei
======


Wú Wéi is a Daoist notion often translated as "inaction", but this is not strictly accurate.

It is instead "effortless action" or "unforced action".  It's not as passive as "inaction" would communicate; it's more aligning with the flow of things, acting spontaneously without forced intention and without struggle.

        <content type="text">

What Is A Programming Language
==============================


A programming language is a way to control calculation through a text language.  In a way, is similar to what writing Math expressions is, although writing Math expressions is focused on Math results.  A programming language is focused on "output" which is a broader concept than "Math results".

A computer can be considered an electronic abacus, at its core, and an abacus is a tool and for calculation and for easing human memory when making calculations.  So, it is okay to say that computers do ease human mind, and human memory in some way.  Also, computers can make big calculations fast, which letting the computer do that calculation is easier than the effort of a human mind doing that big calculation.

Programming is the work of making the user (of a computer) mind easier.

This may not be considered true when a user has to learn about many computer programs, although what the use of programs is making the user capable to achieve, can be far greater than trying to achieve this same thing without a computer.  Without a computer, achieving what a computer is able to easily achieve is a very very very so very much painful effort for the human.

Congrats to many societies, especially and Europe and United Kingdom and United States of America, for giving computers to the world.

Education
=========


To have a child, people only need to have a sex organ and have some sort of intercourse.  But, for a child to be an educated person, parent(s) need to have intelligence...  Much more than only an action (like having intercourse).  Intelligence is a virtue.

Society needs to spread the message that it doesn't take much to be a parent, and that it takes much more than an action of sex to make a (proper civilized) person.

Parent(s) putting children in a school system, only says to the child that parent(s) don't care about how the child will grow up.  It is in the hand of others, it is in the hands of the school system's teachers...

Parent(s) only had sexy time.

        <content type="text">

Space, Symbol, Value
====================


Language teachers should begin by explain this...

Language is composed by space, by symbol (without a value), and by (symbol with a) value.  This is the foundations to a language.

In speech, space can be silence, or (not *xor*) it can also be the pauses in-between words.  In writing, spaces can be, a space, a newline, an end of a file, etc..

Symbol is the entity; which in languages is "word".  A symbol/word can either have no value (for example, the zero of the decimal numerical system), xor have a value (have a meaning), like the big majority of words in a language's dictionary.  The act of getting the value (the meaning) from a symbol/word, is called "interpretation".  (The act of putting value (meaning) to a symbol/word, is called "naming association".)

Most human languages I am aware of are *implicitly* interpreted.  This is not told by (poor) (most) language teachers.  For example, in such languages, when a person says "nothing" it is communicating the meaning of nothing (which, in Portuguese, its meaning is space), not **the** "nothing" (quoted; the symbol, the concept).

In fact, I should have had title this as "Space, Quote, Value" to have been more precise, since the English language is implicitly interpreted, since the English language is value-based.

Hope this has been informative enough as a new introduction to languages.

Nazi Law of Mental Abuse
========================


Here is the story of how Medics have given me the diagnosis of Schizophrenia Paranoid.

Many years ago, I was hospitalized, against my will, into a Mental Health Hospital (big letters because those Medics don't stand to descend to the human level).  It was, and still is, all a very very very unfair event.

Then, in the Hospital, they couldn't fit me into a category, so I defaulted to their ELSE clause.  Which is being diagnosed with Schizophrenia.  And yes, when I went to the Psychiatric Hospital, a person not fitting into a mental health patient profile doesn't mean this person is free of a mental disease, it means it has Schizophrenia.  So, in their profession, these Portuguese Medics actually believe that each person is a mental patient waiting to be discovered.

So there is that.

Time after time, after my first hospitalization, Portuguese Mental Health Nurses set me up in and lies and deception and traps for they to re-hospitalize me when they want it to.  Either is because of something innocent that I say, other time was because I was not (!) having a visual hallucination (and they said to me that I was), I believe that they had lied with stating that I have mistreated some of their staff, etc..  All the hospitalizations was made by them using brute force on me, or with me consenting to take a pill that made me crazy and forgetful and unconscious (I have seen other people in that state afterwards).

This time, during this week, I have called the removal of a person's right to self-determination, written in the Portuguese Mental Health Law, as a Nazi Law.  Which is more true than more false.  Let's see how this unfolds, although they seem to be weaving yet another trap now.

During each hospitalization, nurses have scissored my shoes in front of me, made me unconsciously write something (which until today I don't know what it was) on paper using my name (but you can see it is not my handwriting), taking showers that had vapours that made me pass out, put me in a room without flowing air that made me pass out by the lack of air, spending days without seeing Sunlight...  All of these while putting the blame of these things on me.  Mental Health Nurses expect patients to get out of the Hospital with mental traumas, and so did I.

While my life now in the outside has become a stream of pain, due to the requirement of me taking pain-inducing medication (an injection) each month, for the REST OF MY LIFE!!!

This is all I can say now.

All this treatment makes me actually be more inclined into having a final death rest than to continue living with this required-to-take-medication circumstance, and law!
