ABOUT ME
Theres not really that much interesting to say, I like a lot of different things, know a lot about certain things, others not so much, I am an extreme lurker. I mostly just like gathering information and what not about things I like or find interesting, some things im into
Design/Aesthetics/Video: (everything that goes into these things and doing it at a high level, of which is not represented well on the current channel due to really getting deep into it during the making of the current video that has been worked on since December).
Lifting: I am DYEL no longer, but wouldn't call myself strong. I have a ghetto home gym
Language learning: I desire to learn a lot of languages, japanese being the first one ive taken seriously. I would say in a year or so ill be in a comfortable position with it. I will probably target latin next as I think its interesting, as well as gives you a nice foundation for other things, then perhaps chinese for jokes mostly.
Gaming: I no longer game anymore really outside of excuses to talk to a few friends, but I was once very into a game called osu, as well as speedran Silent Hill 2 before under a different name. I know a lot about osu and speedrunning, too much. I grew up playing COD, NBA2k, Madden, those kind of games, which is a bit antithical to what you would probably expect. (as well just, a fuck ton of various other games across lots of consoles) but i still have fondness for those games. My favorite games would be Final Fantasy 8, and Deus Ex
Tech: I am not a coder or anything like that, I just like certain technologys due to the utility of them, such as linux and various applications in it. I think there is a lot of value in using such things and learning how they work. This website mainly exists because well, I think its cool to have a website, but also as an invitation to tinker and build new skills. I have a mental image of what I want my website to look like, but.... well... it might require java script....!...

Meta Improvement
Find the "real" guys in a domain to learn from, those who strike at the heart of the matter, and know how to treat a beginner right
Systematic approach, meaning, rather then treating the improvement at a thing as its own structure independent of other things, apply a generalized approach that works, then slot in the specifics of the thing into that system. The principles behind getting good at an instrument, lifting, coding, a game, really anything that is a skill, are all the same. its the specifcs that shift, and need to be considered, but it all concedes to the general system of improvement it self. It is possible to improve the act of improving itself, by further understanding that system, which will then make it easier to learn new things. Limited by external factors of course, but those who "get it" will be better at a large swathe of things reletive to those who dont.
Cool Websites
unknowngenius.com Cool blog I found while making current video, Best stuff around mid 2000s
More will be added this is just what came to mind
All of these things are in different category's, but between them all are a lot of crossover generalizations, that shine light into things from different angles, that at first you may not have seen.
