This is like random stuff + thoughts of the week...

Facebook thought I was gay... They better be improving on ad marketing...
Now it believe I'm Asian. Proof:

It is correct this time, I wonder how did they know. I liked the blog too, especially this post. maybe they did analysis of my profile, and their algorithm says "Only Asian people would put mathematics and MIT in every piece of their profile."
But how can they develop such a sophisticated algorithm when they can't count? Proof:

What? how can they be 71 more people when there are only 68 people in the group?

Maybe a group can have negative people.
What are the negative people? People who goes against this group? Well this group is about my schools student government election. The candidates are to my knowledge, the best choice. Maybe there are other groups made to attract votes from this K&K group, and Facebook somehow knows.

Or, Facebook is saying, by tomorrow, there will be 71 more people in the group though the gDay™ with MATE™ Google search API.

How does Facebook know these stuff? Is Facebook that advanced? Or I'm I just been stupid not seeing the obvious algorithms. They definitely find computational power in human DNAs(happened intentionally by divide Gauss's DNA by 0) and used them.

I'm happy I'm on the news of my math class group:

My lame math pun is actually funny xD

Next year I'm not going to be in Journalism. Because I'm going to be THE NEWS1 instead of the news reporter. People are going to interview ME! I will lead Shoreham Wading-River and beat Ward Melville in Suffolk County Math Tournament, and send a email to Half Hollow Hill East's computer science team. With only one sentence to create a mega psychological impact.

I'm sorry to inform you that the winning team of this year's St. Joseph's Annual High School Programming Contest in Long Island will not be Half Hollow Hill East due to the presence of Shoreham Wading-River.

nah....I won't send the mail... it sounds too cocky.

What do you call a person racist against Chinese people?
Ricist!
haha. I invented that joke. Under GPL license.

I were was going to run for the president and stuff, I even made a battle plan2. but I was too involved in the mathematical challenges. I have to make the choice. This year there are strong candidates, the chance for me to win is way too low. But that will be quite fun, because it's going to be like Obama VS Clinton:Minority VS Women presidents.

In AP chem, every time someone says "I did everything right but the answer was wrong", I'm tempted to say "because your calculator was on degree mode."

There were people who just don't want to us RSS, I talked with them about enjoying the new technology. I tried to convince them that RSS is not just some random bloat, with my last resort.
"What's so good about RSS? when ever there is a information posted, you can see them almost in an instant without scheduling your next trip to my blog. It's like knowing that you are pregnant the moment it happens."
The result isn't that well.

My next 2 topics:
DNA computing(Going to be my long time scientific research area other than immortality and portable WMDs) and how I would fail my English essay.
A lecture analysis is due soon. If I wake up at 3 AM, I will do it, or I will forget it. Leave everything to the uncertain... bad ass style.

1. 1. In a good way
2. 2. The plan were obvious after reading the graph below. It come from my analysis of previous high school student president result across America in the last century. The Chinese version? Replace bribe with where C(x) is student x's hour of devotion on communism, M(x) is how good he is with math, and r^2 is the square of the radice.
   

After a month of work on my 12KB upload speed bandwidth, most of ADUni video collection is up at Google Video. ADUni was a free university teaches about computer science funded by ArsDigita. It no longer offering classes because due to the acquisition of ArsDigita.

Philip Greenspun's Tuition-free MIT described reasons for free education.

I care about free education in general and these videos are the ones give me a huge boost with knowledge. So I used my bandwidth and CPU time to download/convert/upload of ADUni videos to Google Video, because it will let user download the video, streaming it and add closed caption. Save ADUni bandwidth and increase the accessibility of education. I hope everyone get as much of what I get from these videos.

It took me a long time to convert the RM files to Xvid formats, FFMPEG and MEncoder doesn't work so I have to use eo-video's ultra slow converter. Convert around the speed the video should be played.

Some of the episodes are missing or cut off because Google Video have a lot problems. If there is no link to the video, it probably means Google's system had some mistake. Sorry but Google video doesn't live to the expectation I expected. We will have to live with the missing ones unless I upload them again. If you find a video that's live but not working, please post a comment or something. I'm disappointed with Google for the first time.
