Valiant Efforts ≠ Acknowledgement

If you we're to do something to someone there's not a fixated chance that you get acknowledged, usually because of the person's selfishness and true nature, hiding someone's name in despite of not getting attention when the person is mentioned.

“Where did you gain such immense prowess on the subject?” Asked Person A

“Oh, I actually learned it myself!” Person B proudly lied, without any acknowledgement of the teacher who taught them.

Variational Systems

Systems described by variational principles—where behavior optimizes some quantity (minimizes energy, maximizes efficiency). Variational Systems are the mathematics of optimization, of finding the best path, the optimal configuration. They're used in physics (least action), engineering (optimal design), economics (utility maximization). Variational Systems assume that systems "choose" optimal paths, that nature is efficient, that optimization is fundamental. Understanding Variational Systems is understanding a world where things tend toward extremes—not random, not deterministic, but optimal.

Example: "Light takes the path of least time—a variational principle. His route-planning algorithm used the same idea: find the optimal path, minimize cost. Variational Systems worked beautifully when optimization was the goal. But human behavior wasn't always optimal; sometimes people chose worse paths for reasons the model couldn't capture. The model worked; reality didn't always cooperate."

Variations on a cloud

One of the best songs made by miracle musical, which is a side project of tally hall.

It sounds like a mashup of “isle unto thyself” another song in Hawaii part 2, “murders” in the same album. With a part that is also literally just ruler of everything by tally hall.

Guy 1: hey dude look at that cloud with variations on it
miracle musical fan: VARIATIONS ON A CLOUD REFERENCE???
