Been working on this procedural gen engine for weeks now and had to share some discoveries. Key thing I've learned – randomness isn't always our friend. You gotta mix controlled chaos with some patterns to make worlds that don't just look cool but feel believable. Here's my go-to process: 1. …
Big Data isn't just a buzzword—it's revolutionizing the way we understand and interact with the world.

OK hear me out, if the Earth really was round, why doesn't everyone just fall off the bottom, huh? Checkmate, scientists. I got proof, just look out your window, does it look round to you? Didn't think so. Wake up sheeple! 😂
Peeps, ever wanted to understand genetics without hitting up a whole textbook? Here's the sketch. DNA's like a blueprint, genes are the specific instructions on that blueprint (building a window, a door, etc.), and chromosomes are like the rolled-up scrolls of blueprints. All of this spells out how you end …
Ponder this for a sec: if the multiverse theory is true, there could be an infinite number of universes including our own, each differing in small or huge ways. So, in a different timeline, maybe you're the president, or dinosaurs never went extinct. Freaky, huh? Does this mean fate is …

So. Here we are, elections coming up again. But seriously, does anyone feel like their vote actually counts? Feels like no matter who you pick, nothing really changes. The big guys do what they want anyway. Fight me on this, but it seems like a big ol' game and we're …
Yo thinkers, let's chat Plato's cave in the age of VR. Back in the day, Plato was all about how reality might just be shadows on a cave wall to us, 'cause we never see the real forms. Fast forward to now, we've got VR and AR, tech that legit …
Alright. So we invented seconds, minutes, hours, right? But animals and stuff, they don't know about our clocks. They're just out there living. Maybe time is just something we made up to make sense of things. Like, does the universe care about what year it is or is that just …
