Thoughts

i asked my friends (and sister) what they are thinking about right now!! answers are located below

Rants

C needs namespaces.

dear C standard committee,

please consider adding a lightweight namespace/module mechanism to C............

C's simplicity is one of its biggest strengths, but large projects and libraries often have to simulate namespaces through naming conventions:


    foo_create()
    foo_destroy()
    foo_parse()
    foo_utils_...
                        

THIS works, but it becomes increasingly cumbersome as projects grow.. i DISLIKE that.

i'd love to see a namespace system that:

  • keeps C's existing simplicity
  • provides actual identifier organization
  • works cleanly with headers and separate compilation
  • doesn't require C to adopt C++-style complexity
  • remains fully backwards-compatible with existing C code

it ABSOLUTELY doesn't need to be fancy. i really just want to be able to organize related APIs without putting the entire library name into every identifier. . . . .

please. i am begging. 🙏🥺

being imitated is weird

i LOVE it when my friends pick up little things from me.

like a word i use a lot, a weird typing habit, a particular way i react to things, or some random mannerism that somehow becomes part of THEIR vocabulary TOO.

honestly? it's FLATTERING. it means i've influenced someone enough that something i do stuck with them.

BUT.

THERE is a POINT where I START HATING IT.

because: sometimes, i don't want my little quirks to stop feeling like MINE.

i like recognizing my own weird, little mannerisms and thinking "yeah, that's SUCH a MEEEE thinggggg!!"

AND THEN SOMEONE ELSE STARTS USING THE SAME EXPRESSIONS AND suddenly i'm sitting there like:

WAIT. that is MY thing.

and I DO KNOW that is irrational because nobody owns a word or a typing style. i DO know that people naturally pick things up from their friends. that's literally how people influence each other.

i think what bothers me isn't really the copying itself.

it's the feeling of becoming ordinary.

i like feeling distinct. i like having little things that make me feel recognizable as me. so when someone starts picking up enough of those things, part of me worries that the things that made me feel unique aren't unique anymore.

which is especially funny because i LOVE knowing that i INFLUENCE people.

JUST... NOT ENOUGH, to make me feel replaceable.

About Me

What should I call you?

i, uhh, think someone should call me whatever nicknames i go by, ranked by preferences according to my pronouns.cc! i do NOT have a link to it yet.. and i do not want my FELLOW READERS to go from page to page.. so i will, uhh, say it here: Nate, Jay, Max, Jayzor, Zy, OR WHATEVER. (do not CALL ME "OR WHATEVER;" otherwise, you're just genuinely done for. ^-^)

Where are you from?

i'm from the Philippines!!! specifically, IT'S A SECRET.

What are your pronouns?

he/him. PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.... or they/them if you don't know my pronouns and don't want to assume

How old are you? / When's your birthday?

i'm currently 14 years old AAAAND that increments every time the calendar hits the 25th day of the 9th month. (figure it out!!)

What's your worldview?

i'm.... agnostic atheist!!!!!! my doubts grow bigger as time passes by... (ORRRR if i just learn science.. haha...)

What's your MBTI/enneagram/thingamajig?

INTP, 7w6, sp/so!! ^^

How would you describe your labels in general?

(based on my pronouns.cc)
I AM: cisgender (male), bisexual, homoflexible, biromantic, lithromantic, fictorose, and fictionkin.

Do you use any other labels?

i have a bunch of smaller identity and personality labels, but honestly.... i collect them like pokemon, haha......

What languages do you speak/use?

OKAY. my primary languages are: English and Filipino!! the rest of the languages that i learned in Duolingo are: Japanese, French, and Spanish!

What are you interested in?

I'M SOOOOOOOOO into OMORI. like, please.. i won't stop making omori references here and there.. but, SERIOUSLY. here are my interests: programming, software development, making random little projects, music, piano, games, judo, linguistics, languages, psychology, analyzing things, and just learning how stuff works in general!! i genuinely like learning and experimenting with things, even if i have absolutely no idea what i'm doing at first.. and, uhhh, yeah! OMORI too. obviously.

What are you like?

OKAY. the PRIMARY INFORMATION (a.k.a. the MOST important info) I USUALLY INFORM PEOPLE OF IS THAT: i'm a hungry person; therefore, buy me FOOD or i will feed you to my dogs and cat. jokes aside, i am aware that i am extremely observant. so, HOLD ON!!! that does NOT mean i am NEGATIVELY JUDGEMENTAL. it more appropriately means that i tend to question things i don't understand!!! (like my homework) and, uhhh, hmmmm... yeah! i ran out of words right now, and i guess that's a characteristic; a valid one!

What do you do in your free time?

UHHH.. i mostly spend my free time doing absolutely NOTHING PRODUCTIVE. i just wanna play games with my friends and code whatever the heck enters my thought process. I HATE DOING THINGS I HATE, such as: assignments, homework, projects, etc. chores are fine.. they help me regain my cutesy sanity :3

What are you learning?

I'M TRYING TO LEARN AND IMPROVE AT EVERYTHING!!! and by everything, i mean basically everything listed in my interests and hobbies. i wanna keep learning, experimenting, and getting better at the things i enjoy, even if i'm absolutely terrible at them right now!! ok done

What makes someone unique?

UHHH. something UNIQUE that is applicable into things... is YOUR identity. your voice, your tone, your mannerisms, everything about you... they tell others that it's YOU! no one is exactly "the same"!! in fact, everyone is unique. think about it! the way your eyes shine when you laugh, the specific warmth you bring into a room, or how you carry a universe of silent battles and beautiful memories inside you that no one else will EVER fully understand. YOU, yes, YOU, are a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence in this universe. the world has been around for billions of years, but it has never seen your kind of magic before, and it never will again. so please, DON'T ever hide it! (❁´◡`❁)

and honestly, i think identity is kinda interesting because you don't always have to TRY to show people who you are. sometimes, you just.. do! the way you type, the words you use, the things you notice, the things you care about, the things you find funny, even the random little habits you don't think twice about.. they're ALL little pieces of you!

you COULD.. try to imitate someone else perfectly, but you'd still be yourself while doing it, RIGHT?? isn't that kinda weird? maybe being unique isn't about finding the ONE thing that nobody else has. maybe it's about the fact that nobody else can be you in exactly the same way that you are!

in conclusion: anything about you, fits right, and it will always will!

Why did you make this website?

i made this website cuz uhmm... i genuinely need to practice my web development (i HATE css.) and, uhmm, express myself and my identity at the same time! thanksyou........

Caution

DNI (Do Not Interact)

  • boundary violations — if i say "no," that's a complete sentence; LISTEN.
  • bad-faith interaction — don't intentionally twist what i say
    (unless we're joking around)
  • unsolicited drama — i am not installing the drama dependency; do it to others that want to..
  • harassment — OBVIOUS ONE...
  • pressure — don't push me into conversations or interactions i don't wanna be in
  • NSFW / adult interaction — ABSOFREAKINGLUTELY NOT.

BYI (Before You Interact)

  • i can be PRETTY QUIET; don't expect me to constantly yap here and there
  • my social battery is NOT to be guaranteed.
  • i may disappear without warning when i run out of energy
  • i can take a BIG WHILE to reply, even if i saw your message.
    (heavily context-dependent; may happen if someone were to vent to me, for example.)
  • speaking of venting? i despise deep, dark topics. especially if someone's just gonna drop that kind of information at me.. so YEAH. do not dump that.. on some random Friday at 6:07 PM.. for example!!
  • i overthink wording (usually). if i ask what you meant, i'm probably genuinely trying to understand
  • i care about grammar/wording more than an average person does... i sometimes am a stickler!
    (stickler = describes a noun who/that insists on correctness proper behavior, or strict adherence to rules! especially regarding language and grammar)
  • i JOKE A TON; context matters.. critically....
  • i will probably randomly infodump about topics you aren't interested in.. or whatever info that enters my brain
  • please ask if you're unsure about a boundary instead of guessing; this is not a guessing game.
  • i can be pretty impulsive, occasionally. my brain presses "send" before the thought fully loads! i AM aware of this and actively trying to improve; "think twice before acting" alone does not magically fix impulsiveness.
  • i often need DIRECT communication; hints are not always detected by my brain. this also applies to everyone else—not everyone will understand hints, so please communicate clearly. communication is literally the KEY.
  • i can be a tad bit silly, sometimes. expect random jokes, weird comparisons, and questionable humor!!
  • i can enter "analysis mode" and overthink situations a TON. if i ask many questions about something, i'm probably trying to understand it rather than start an argument. in fact, i hate petty arguments, quarrels, and unnecessary drama.
