So looking at a more serious (hopefully) the war on
#Iran is moving into a more solid negotiations phase to stabilize already way too high gas prices & begin to recover fertilizer shortfalls & refilling reserves, again not much to put stock in what this admin says but some waking up to smell the coffee seems beginning. Maybe even
#Ukraine negotiations may begin to be less fake. If given more stable future prospects looking at resuming programming the Lexicon z3 project or 3 most recent programs from 2005, 2013, & 2017, unnamed Russian (& Estonian) language teaching program now tricked out to do French, German, Spanish, & Portuguese equally as well with same lessons, different keyboards (2005), Cubix 2D 3D 4D (2013), & Zedlam game (board games & geography teaching & quizzes). Merging the code made it easier once sorted to work on overlapping features like how Zedlam maps went multilingual with mostly the same languages plus Mandarin. Since all parts of the z3 were finished & released before it is not the most complicated project & though not likely able to sell it, maybe to governments or
@StateDept for special version of language cores, was meant to be free or at least pay for graduate studies. The one program I did manage to apply to would had heard by now so also beginning to consider other more possible schools to focus on East Asian politics & risks & scenarios for the avoidable US China conflict many would like to see become more than theoretical. While I may get real funding offers someday yesterday, those offering to fund it for free release or to be nice still unlikely. At least governments foreign service divisions would have reason to pay to see it work better for them (its omnidirectional & good methods) & would be above board enough to not be accused of taking money from a foreign government because of taking money from a foreign government would be the point, for spreading their languages to wider audiences, if/when far enough along for US gov to say no thanks. Crowd funding tried before for the
@PM_ViktorOrban interview (&
@mfa_russia & someone in RU Orthodox Church, even
@RealCandaceO may have failed at last one, she seemed to talk anyway, & other interviews not as important as many good ones were done in 2 yrs since that attempt, usually by
@TuckerCarlson @Judgenap. So I know from experience Kickstarter & others unlikely to be worth the bother. Cubic 5D Universe WAS done, that part of z3 module, but got bored & actually started to code a basic internally rotatable 5D cube, or at least 8 stacked hypercube tesseracts depending on how complicated 4D insertion is & whether my method works or is correct. The stacked 4D rotatable merely is extension of combing the 2005 & 2013 4D levels. The 2026 update to 2017 Zedlam as done except for adding written Hindi & Mandarin to match the audio clips. The new user creatable maps needs more testing as only 1 so far but still eager to do a Periodic Table map/quiz bc seems fun & easy way to add lots of words to language program (written tests) module. The auto-convert foreign alphabets from Google Translate works for batch addinf new languages. & likely to double from 500 words/phrases to 1000. Only real constraint is still have to do audio files one at a time, in 6 different languages, no batch for that yet. Its a lot of work but probably 85-90% done. All hard to think up stuff done. Testing the language program I think will be fun, relearning Russian & French, and getting further with Spanish & German since abandoned 101 level over 30 yrs ago. And much longer since dealing with elemental names & (atomic) numbers. The math is elementary for mean, vocabulary at different levels in different languages, & Portuguese is completely new, but fun like French & Spanish mixed together, shaken or stirred. Accented vowels much? You better you bet. Mark that down in your copy books now.
