"If it would help, most sane individuals consider gematria to entail "jumping to conclusions" too." I guess I would agree that 1-2 results may very well be; but 1-2 THOUSAND results, all equaling the same number and pointing to the same message readily lends itself to probability analysis. Which is something YOU obviously never considered while YOU obviously jumped to conclusions about the point I was trying to get across. Having said that, you'd be surprised what sort of people in what sort of places I've managed to convince that "Yes, there definitely seems to be something weird going on with this". So I don't have to "ask anyone" anymore because since some of the older submissions of this account that you seem to be referencing, I've found people in positions of influence that I've been able to influence the thinking of with this vector of analysis answering more of their questions than many other, quite expensive tools at their disposal seem to do. So, "Thanks for the unsolicited and unfounded opinion based on the sheer ignorance displayed by those camped out on the Hill of Stupidity of the Dunning-Krueger curve", but you can go ahead and keep that to yourself because it's not only of no use but not even relevant anymore to where I'm at these days.

"Everything else is delusional and impossible for me to follow". I see. So, again, to illustrate the mentality of those on the left side of the Dunning-Krueger curve (displaying severe Narcissistic personality disorder encompassing both unfounded overconfidence and disdain for making an effort to actually dive in and learn): "*I CAN'T* understand it, therefore *YOU* must be "delusional". Many such cases of sophomoric thinking in the world, you're neither unique nor interesting.

Also, as a thought experiment, imagine if everyone took the same approach to everything as you do, for example: Skip more elementary math courses, then one day burst into the middle of a course on number theory in the middle of a semester, sit there with your arms crossed (no doubt with a sneering, skeptical grin on your face) for a few minutes, then interrupt the class only to imagine you're blessing everyone there with a drop of what you no doubt consider to be your profound personal brand wisdom: "*I CAN'T* understand this, therefore YOU'RE all crazy, take meds, LOL!" while you peace out and do a 360º, walking out with what you assuredly think is a major "Ha-ha – I sure showed them!" victory notch on your belt (while everyone in your wake just looks at each other and slowly shakes their heads, ashamed of your over-the-top ignorance).

I was once like you a long time ago; the difference is I actually found flaws in the logic presented that stumped professors who went on to ask other professors who couldn't come back with a reply to the objections I raised. Or, in one case, a well-known mathematician who wanted to convince a roomful of financial professionals that his contribution to math could easily be extended to financial analysis ... but failed to first come up with an answer addressing a small but important part of the technical transition in doing so (ie, the old "(1) Idea, (2) "Something, something, something which we'll surely figure out later sometime", (3) Huge profits!!" The point being, I actually gave what was being presented some serious thought and found errors in the very logic being used to present the ideas and used their own logic to illustrate flaws in their logic. As in "slightly more effort than, "*I CAN'T* keep up with this, so *YOU* must be crazy, go see a doctor, LOL".

"I also checked out your subreddit yesterday, which is just... more of the same, married with political conspiracy theories."

That's your opinion and you're certainly entitled to it and kudos to you for venturing that far in your quest to stalk me. Having said that, "if you only knew" who reads that subreddit and for what purposes. I'll just say this: Regardless of whether I post once a month or once an hour, no matter what time I post "their time", that sub has reached a level where each and every post gets read IMMEDIATELY no matter what the time is for the people reading it, usually by a small group that slightly exceeds the membership count (a number that in itself has significance to the audience invited) who then go on to pass posts to a readership ranging from several hundred to several thousand. Which may not sound like much in terms of "social media popularity", but, again, "if you only knew" who the intended audience is. People with full-time jobs in serious institutions that have plenty of other important things on their plates. Who have apparently set up a small team dedicated to instantly reading whatever I post, whatever time of weekday/weekend day/holiday or night I post it (let me know when you've managed to do something similar). And since this has been going on for a few years now, it's safe to say it's not a "Take a look at this crazy guy and his weird crap, LOL" sort of thing being passed around as a joke at the office. A few times, perhaps. Over the course of several years? No.

"If I wanted to fuck with you I could still have all sorts of fun, but I'm telling you as a gesture of courtesy that you are unwell." UH-HUH. I came here asking a technical question in good faith on a site most reasonable people would say has a higher than average probability of getting serious responses due to both the nature of its design, the person who came up with its background, and the intended audience he had in mind for it ... meanwhile, despite an infinite amount of options to do something productive and meaning in this world, "you're just here to fuck with people". And I'm the one who's "unwell". "OK".

Do yourself a favor: Bookmark this conversation in your mind and revisit it in 5-10 years to examine your growth from flippant ignorance to where ever it is you may find yourself at such time, which for your sake I truly hope is a better, more mature place than where you are right now. Which, despite your reference to "job security", is basically indistinguishable from a high-school class clown who still gets off on things like old renditions of Jerky-Boys prank phone calls and probably spray-paint tagging racisms on video games "because the LULZ".
