Am I asking the Worng Question?

Often the right solution come from the right question. Often but not always, the right question was asked followed by the right solution. But just like the old Gauss, I paused and began to ask, did I asked the right question?

Redefining the question, often but not always, simplifies the whole problem set particularly if the subject is totally beyond ordinary topics. I realized that my questions with regards to prime numbers is pointing towards Riemann's Zeta function, which had already put many mathematicians to madness. Nevertheless, I shall not forget about it. It is a question that stimulates my mind.

I had somebody asking me what the triangle be of use for (to human being or daily life). So I answered 'nothing'. Indeed it is useless. The knowledge I gain from this pursuit is probably useless beyond comprehension. But hey, what should I care. What is important is 'I like it'.

Significant Progress in The Analysis of Predictibility of Prime Patterns

My obsession on pattern of prime distribution continues. I conjectured to myself that pattern exists in the prime number distribution. If this conjecture is true then there will always be a method to confirm or dis-confirm it.I don't know if there is such theorem that describe the conjecture, if there is one then it is sure difficult to find it. This knowledge is dangerous indeed because if the conjecture is found true then the security of the algorithms which relies on the difficulties of computation of prime numbers is indeed compromised.

I continued my work on the magic triangle I have invented long ago, 7 years ago probably. Earlier on, I had found the basic properties of the triangle, and deducing several theorem that describes the properties and characteristics. Even so, I felt that the theorem was incomplete.

I continued working on triangle since several nights ago. Sudden urge. I end up writing down several more theorem and proving it as well. More ideas coming but some theorem needs more thoughts right now. Previously, I was working with integers. Integer numbers are easier to work with and the basic properties of the triangle was defined around integers. I proved that it works well with any integer series because any integer series is a well defined set of integer numbers, or in other word, it has structure or pattern (with regard to its distribution).

I started working on structure of integers which has no pattern, the prime number. It is difficult to predict what is the next prime number, unlike the normal integer series. Non-trivial solution shows that I can get the next prime number using the magic triangle. How it works is beyond the scope of this blog. I hypothesized that prime number is predictable exactly to the range small enough for computation to be performed to find the number. To prove this hypothesis, I need to prove that the prime number distribution has particular pattern and structure which enables it to be predictable. The triangle gives me a small insights on how to go about this proving. However, I encounter another problem. To prove that something has pattern, one has to know what is the pattern look like. In my case, I don't know. It was proven that prime numbers are infinite. But nobody has never shown how an infinite look like. Infinite is equally similar to void. I void has structure then infinite should have a structure too. If void has pattern and structure, then it has to be quantifiable or described mathematically and it is predictable. My idea is that if the n-th prime number is predictable then there is no prime numbers that is not predictable within certain set of distribution. If there is an infinite distribution then infinite can be described, therefore void is proven.

I probably end up in an asylum, just like the others. But I am not mad. I just think too much. I hope my lifetime is enough for me to make at least some small fraction of this ideas to be formally written down.

I Was Right.

End of last year through early 2010, and maybe until now, my home-village is in deep s**t. No rain and everything was turning brown. The heat was immense that I took bath like every three hours. It was not a pleasant days to laze around.

I was thinking to my self that something is not right with the weather system. It was alright last year. At least there was rain last year December. This year was, not a drop of rain since I touchdown on the 1st of December. I know from past history that the only event which can result in this kind of situation is if there is volcano eruption, and also if the sun is in its 11-year sunspot. I know that the 11-year cycle is coming up, about 2011~2012 and we should expect unpredictable weather, especially drought at the equator region. But the 11-year cycle does not explain the unpredictable weather in cold region. We have snow in Lancaster this year, in December!!! How weird is that. I don't think the sunspot gonna make that, which lead to my conclusion that volcano will be erupting soon.

I can't remember who I was talking to, but I told him that only volcano can cause such silly weather and some volcano will erupt somehow, somewhere, soon. Then I've forgotten all about it, until dinner just now, I was talking to my friend. I suddenly remembered what I have predicted earlier this year. The volcano was not truly catastrophically erupted yet, it erupted and spewed lots of bad stuffs up the sky, but scientist fears its neighbor will be the one that is erupting.

I am not really is a vulcanologist, but I have read the events that comes after Krakatoa erupted long ago. I hope rain will come soon. The sooner the better. Let the rain bring all the bad particles down to earth and let the earth regulates her weather system to its pleasant state. Otherwise, we will be having drought for several seasons. Hope for the faithful monsoon to come on time.

If somebody ever said that the drought is due to human sin, or some punishment from god, he is nut!

The Businessman Paradox

..If all Consumer becomes Service Provider, to whom the Service Provider will provide service to?...
..If the Consumer is also the Service Provider, then the Service Provider must also be the Consumer..which one comes first?

What Should I Do?

I am in deep dilemma. I am at the crossroad.

I have learned that brain activity can be reduced by forcing the Pituitary gland to signal the thyroid to produce more hormone. It can be done by eating less food or skipping meal, and doing less exercise. The body's metabolic rate is severely reduced.In normal condition, the thyroid supplies just right hormone to the brain. An increase in that hormone will cause the brain to under-work. This is what I want. At normal circumstances, my brain work excessively hard, working on something not important and important things. It gives me hard time to concentrate on one thing. I guess that reducing the brain activity to some extent will give me some way to focus on just one important work.

However, I am getting the side effect of this. I had excessive hair loss. My appetite reduced considerably, I am stressed frequently, unexpected mood swing, unordered sleep, unable to focus on work for long period, etc., The good thing is that my brain is not so active. I even find it hard to write something in my own blog.

I think I should go back to my normal life. Thinking is a curse to me. If I am designed that way, so be it.

The Story of our Lives

http://sanglife.blogspot.com/2010/04/story-of-our-lives.html

Of the 7 years in his life, he couldn't remember the ones which weren't dreadful. But then again, who looks back at life when he has only 7 years to his credit?

The boy stood at the train station waiting for the next ride. The thrill of a fast train made his fears & pain go away. The wind kissed his face, as his mother once did. The wind wiped away his tears, as his mother once did. He could fly like a bird, that his pet once was. The sound of the train was a music to his ears. He could dance.

The train pulls into the station. He climbs in and takes off his shirt. He cleans the floor of the compartment with his shirt. That's what he does for a living. And then he puts forth his hand, waiting for the passengers to think his work was worthwhile. Or in reality, take pity on him and give him some money.

He goes to the girl in red standing at the door, lost in her thoughts. He puts his hand forth and calls her "Didi". He looks at her eyes, a mix of emotions and skepticism, begs her for some money. She says "No". He moves on to the others.

He gets about 3 rupees and there is no more coming. He retires. Suddenly, he feels 2 taps on his shoulders. It was the girl in red. She hands him 5 bucks. He accepts it. At the next stop, he gets down and repeats the same job there.

-------

The girl had a fun time tonight with her friends. She couldn't remember the last time they laughed this hard and went about the streets so happily. When they parted ways at the train station, she ran for the train, just about the depart. She took a seat, kept up the spirit by talking to her friends and then falling asleep. She woke up 2 stations before her stop and decided to catch some wind.

The train rides soothe her soul. The wind kisses her face, as she longs her mother to do. The wind wipes away her tears, as she longs her mother to do. She felt like bird, that she once believed she was going to be. The sound of the train is music to her ears. She could dance.

A little boy filled with dirt gets into the train, takes off his shirt and starts cleaning the floor. Her heart breaks because he's supposed to be getting an education and not earning. "It's just unfair that we are not born with the knowledge of what we truly deserve but have to learn it along the way, till it's a belief" - she thinks. She considers whether to pay him or not. What's his life like after he finishes up here. Does he go home to a drunken father or a failed one? Worse, does he go home to his master who takes away all his earning and feeds him? No, she will not pay. She doesn't have the food to give him.

He calls her "Didi" and she looks into his eyes. They are desperate as they are taught to be, else they really will be. "No" comes out of her mouth, of habit. She turns away and thinks "At least someone feeds him, if not you." and then "Have faith. May be he doesn't get abused but has no other way to live" She digs her purse for some money and draws out 5 bucks.

She taps his frail shoulders and hands him the money. He gets off at the next stop and she forgets all about him. She thinks about someone she loves and smiles at a few memories. Her stop arrives and she gets off.

"Didi" - a little voice calls out and it's happy. She turns back and finds the boy. He was eating a biscuit, holding his shirt in his arms, smiling and waving at her. She smiles a wide one that comes from knowing that the faith paid off.

About Faith

I am trying to understand the concept of faith. Say it be in religious point of view or in daily life point of view.

I probably bias towards the interpretation of faith through mathematical analysis, since i can only argues within that domain.

Consider my paradox, I shall call it The LB Paradox of Faith:

Suppose that there are 1 billion people living in this good planet of Earth. 50% of the population are religious, who believes that the world is going to end up in smoke. And the other 50% does not believe at all in any of the crap that the religious 50% is saying.

Being bothered too much by the religious 50%, the other 50% decided to create a new population in planet Mars. So the 50% non religious population hop into their space shuttle and fly over to mars in one go. However, one religious human decided to follow the shuttle for he fears that his life will end if he stays on earth.

Now, without that one idiot living in planet Mars, the population that shifted over to Mars is theoretically living without fear because their world will never end. But, suppose that that idiot starts to tell people that the world will end (according to his religion) in smoke, Mars will end up in smoke too, just like earth. How absurd that is! If the non believer move to another planet again and one idiot decided to follow, the whole thing repeats and all back to square one.

But Mars is Mars and Earth is Earth, how can there be two world that will end up in smoke. No matter where we are, as long as the belief is carried along, it wont make any difference.

Religion works on the basis of Faith. Every inch requires faith. Remove faith, and there will be no religion. The simplest question one may ask may be is if hell truly exists. Difficult to prove, one need not asks for proof. Just have faith that that place is there is sufficient.

Well, that sounds like assumption to me. We 'want' to believe that hell exists. If we don't 'want' to believe, surely we can forget about having faith in it. 'Want' to believe is equivalent to we are truly not sure if it is there or not, and we don't care if it exist or not because we 'want' it to exist and make us happy. Believe it or not, every time we have faith in there is hell, we are actually telling ourself that we actually does not know and don't care if it exist or not. That is why we have faith.

If we know truly that hell exists, why need faith. If hell is there, it will be there. Just like a car. If we have a car, why have faith that we have a car. If we have a car, we indeed have a car.

Between faith and doctor, only idiot give it to faith when comes to sickness. Between, getting rich and poor, only idiot give in to fate. Between becoming educated and not, only idiot give in to faith.

For me, I decide my destiny.

My Beloved Friend, MONEY

Well, undoubtedly money is the best and most remarkable human invention compared to any other cool inventions. No doubt about that. No money, everything will collapse and become ruin, metaphorically speaking.

I believe that money is everything. In and out of human life, is money, nothing but money. Amount of money is proportional to the amount of happiness we'll get. More money, happier we are. If we have loads of money, we can buy anything. Anything that we can think of. Anything that we can imagine. Big and small, easy or complicated, tangible or intangible, important or not important. Nothing really matters really if we have loads of money. Anything under the sun is just how much money, if we have loads of money.

Imagine if money was not invented. Human will exchange stuffs. My nephew, Buson, will have difficulties going to college because he need to bring half chicken to trade for a pack of pencils, a herd of buffalo to trade for airplane ticket, a boxful of banana for a rim of A4 paper and so on. That will be a disaster. So money was invented to ease the management of human's livelihood. It is merely for the physical world. You wouldn't want to carry goats around to exchange for a nice dinner when you do for a date would you.

But when I mention 'money can buy ANYTHING', mind of some people starts to roam freely, way far beyond the physical world and into the spirit world. And then they find something called the salvation of the soul, and they thought..hmmm salvation is very expensive, money can't buy the... and soon they realize, automatically their mind said 'money can't but EVERYTHING'. That is kind of odd. Money and salvation, soul, spirit... That is totally not what money is designed for int he first place. Its the human's handicapped mind that pulled the thought that corrupt the purpose of money in the first place. Human with proper mind and sane mine will never equate money with the intangible realm, especially the realm of the spirit and the unknown. Money was invented so that we don't have to carry goat around for am meal. How would this got to do with salvation of the spirit? I don't understand.

We, sane mind, should not equate money with our salvation. We should not say 'money can't buy my salvation' because by saying such thing, we have already put value to the salvation. Money indeed can buy anything under the sun as long as that anything have value associated with it. Is money root of all evil? Nope. Money is pure, money didn't do any sin. It is Human that created the evil using money as the tool. Therefore money is bad? No way. Human is bad. Perhaps we should have stick to the 'exchange' method instead of money. Probably in that case, no money no root of all evil.

As long as we are in this world, find money, create money and spend money. The more money you have, the better your in the society, most importantly, education of your children are definitely assured.

Eskimo Wolf Hunter

Here is how an Eskimo hunts Wolf for their nice furry skin. An Eskimo hunter hunts a a rabbit, a seal, or anything easy to catch red blooded animal. The hunter have a two-edged sword which he will use to slaughter the animal. He will dip the blade into the animal blood, creating a very thin coat of blood, and then letting the blood to freeze. He dip the blade again, creating another coat of thin layer blood. He probably do that several time.

The Eskimo will then put the blade strongly anchored to the ground with the blade pointing straight up. Pack of wolf, attracted to the smell of blood will come to the blade, starts licking the blood. Because the blood is frozen, eventually the wolf's tongue become frozen numb. The wolf kept on licking until the blood coating on the blade all licked by the wolf and for every lick, the blade start to cut through the wolf's tongue, and starts bleeding. Because the tongue is numbed, the wolf does not feel a thing. When the tongue starts to bleed, the wolf starts to feel warm blood, and gets more excited, and lick the blade faster. The more it licks, the more cut and more blood. Eventually the wolf stops when it feel the pain.

The wolf will then die bleeding.

Because of Passion and Lust, man and woman will eventually will end up like the wolf.

The Paradox

One stormy night in 1945, out of nowhere, a guy came out of the darkness carrying a baby to an orphanage door. The nun saw that fine little girl and decided to keep her and called her Jane. Jane grew up wondering who was her father, mother, sisters, brothers. One day, when Jane was 19 years old, she fell in love with a handsome young man. It is a love at first sight. However, things does not really goes well between them, they quarrel every night, and the boyfriend stormed into the night, leaving Jane alone and pregnant. One night, Jane was rushed to the hospital to deliver a fine little baby girl. That night, somebody broke the window and snatched the baby away. The doctor found out that Jane was bleeding abnormally and did an operation on her and turned her into Jim. Jane woke up next morning just to find that she is no more Jane. She said to herself, I was left in an orphanage as a baby, grew up as Jane, had a baby who was kidnapped from the hospital and now I am not even Jane anymore, I am Jim... He gets into fist fight every time somebody asked him who is he, where is he from, who was his parents.. One day Jim was so drunk and slept in the bar. The bartender came up to Jim and said 'Jim, wake up.. I am not really a bar tender, I am a time traveler, come into my machine and we will find out who is your mother, father, brother, sisters..'. Jim went way back in time, and found a young 19 years old girl and it was love at first sight. However, things didn't went well between, they quarrel every night, and Jim stormed into the night, leaving his girlfriend. Then Jim get to know that his girlfriend was pregnant, wanted to give the baby the best education possible, he went to the hospital, break the window and snatch the baby away. He went into the time machine and he go back..back..way back in time, and the year was 1945, it was a stormy night, Jim went to an orphanage and put his baby on the orphanage doorstep. The nun saw that fine little baby and called her Jane. Jane grew up wondering who was her mother, father, sister, brother....

Who is Jane's Father and mother?

Misinterpretion

I was ROFL when I saw somebody commented on facebook that CHRISTIAN is a religion. Little we know that the moslems also saying that islam is a religion. But little we know that the original intention of the usage of the word is totally different. Christians and moslems thought that jews is a religion too! Worst, they thought Judaism is also religion and theology. I think even the jews themselves will not admit that because judaism is their way of life. Just the moslems claims that islam is a way of life. And originally, the word christian is referring to people whose life follows christ (in a way, it is a way of life too). At least the jews preserved their original state of definition, moslems and particularly christians totally deluded. Little they know that christian are made a religion by the romans conqurers. enhanced the religion with flashy building and elaborate ceremony. and now, if anybody asked where christianity comes from, they will say from GOD. I am gonna ROFL again.

Is it important to know the origin of christianity? Oo yes. Imagine a car, made to ease travelling, used by an idiot as a roof of a house. Look techie, but darn idiot.
