No one understands me
Do not be upset, if people do not understand you. It means you know more than them. Use this knowledge to your own advantage. But don’t lose touch with reality.

"Random" constant
123583145943707741561785381909987527965167303369549325729101
This constant is created by adding two last numbers in the sequence and making the next as the last digit of the sum: 1+2->3; 2+3->5; 3+5->8; 5+8->3, 8+3->1; ...
This constant has been created with the following ideas in mind.
1. It has to look random
2. It has be long enough so that the probability to match another random sequence is low
3. Easy to reproduce by a person with a pen and paper
4. Not based on any specific or personal information.
The length of this constant is 60 because after 60 digits the process repeats the sequence over again.

Agression the eternal paradox
Can anyone justify aggression? Act of aggression or violence is always based on the idea of some future events. One can make reasonable justification when referring to something that will, can, or may happen. Now an interesting point is that all future events are always mental. They are never facts. An intelligent mind can foresee future events. Science makes great achievements. However those kind of events are never a base for aggression or violence because the models do not involve agents with intentional behaviour. When models do involve human players, the future events cease being facts. And said above justification becomes based on assumptions, strong or weak still assumptions, which are mere somebody's opinions.

Chaitin Paradox
A known Chaitin's quote (*) can be succinctly expressed in a short phrase:
Understanding is programming
According to this statement, this very statement cannot be understood before we can program concepts: understanding and programming. If we were able to program these concepts, then it would be a discovery of true AGI. Hence the paradox is in the fact that its solution is not achievable before Technological Singularity.
(*) ... you understand something only if you can program it. (You, not someone else!) Otherwise you don't really understand it, you only think you understand it. [emphasis in the original]

Defective mind
It is really difficult to see your own mental deficiencies because our
brain is very good at making things up to look self-consistent. To find
out those one has to set his mind to scientific infinite cycle of
hypothesising, theorising, and experimenting.
But even starting with a hypothesis is hard. Look for clues of
inconsistency of your behaviour, beliefs and conclusions.

Memory
I can hardly bear confusion And realise surreal If all this is a mere illusion Why does it feel so real
