Hey, friend. The first drafts of this website were sketched back in early 2024, but my affair with it progressed very slowly так как я могу выкраивать для него время лишь урывками. Here you can find snippets of who I am, what I enjoy, and what makes me essentially me. Буду рад если ты напишешь мне пару строк.

One of the reasons I hate book lists is that if someone asks me the stupid question "what's the best book you've ever read?", my answer would depend on the time of the day, bicycling conditions, freshness of the last meal, ambient temperature, & current price of OTM options.

#### Books I like

• 
##### Ada, or Ardor by Vladimir Nabokov

Nabokov's most intricate and complex novel. You can see touches of his biography as he gave way up to himself, and this is what makes it so entertaining. Every time you read it, you pick up on more allusions, more puns, more inconsistencies in Van's retelling.

• 
##### Mary by Vladimir Nabokov

His first novel. Love the way his Russian prose is similar to his English, with all the humor transliterated to his later works. The way that humans idealize their memories is neatly described.

• 
##### The Fractal Geometry of Nature by Benoit Mandelbrot

A great essay about fractals, the concepts behind them, and their applications.

• 
##### What Is ChatGPT Doing... and Why Does It Work? by Stephen Wolfram

Work of the best person who qualifies to write a book about LLM's.

• 
##### Epistulae Morales ad Lucilium by Seneca

Not a big fan of the divine and the gods. I think stoics mostly associated gods with nature as a whole or a divine Deity, but that is just me and my skeptical empiricist mind. A great read.

• 
##### Dracula by Bram Stoker

I love everything related to vampires. The Great successor of Carmilla.

• 
##### The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov

Two stories well connected to each other. Gives Studio Ghibli vibes as the reader is ambivalent towards antagonists.

• 
##### The Monk by Matthew Lewis

A splendidly described societal structure of modern churches and alike.

#### Books I want to read

• 
##### We by Yevgeny Zamyatin

The 1921 dystopia of a glass city where citizens are numbers, banned in the Soviet Union before it could be published there. Orwell reviewed it shortly before writing 1984.

• 
##### Season of the Witch by David Talbot

San Francisco from the Summer of Love through the Moscone and Milk assassinations to the early AIDS years, and how the city broke itself and put itself back together.

• 
##### Boom: Bubbles and the End of Stagnation by Byrne Hobart and Tobias Huber

An argument that speculative bubbles are sometimes how a society pays for the infrastructure it could not otherwise justify, and how that breaks a stretch of stagnation.

• FrankensteinMary Shelley · 1818

A human being in perfection ought always to preserve a calm and peaceful mind, and never to allow passion or a transitory desire to disturb his tranquillity.

• Anna KareninaLeo Tolstoy · 1878

All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.

Written on the backs of five photographs on my photo wall. Put them back in order.
• Beyond Good and EvilFriedrich Nietzsche · 1886

When you look into the abyss, the abyss also looks into you.

• The Book of Five RingsMiyamoto Musashi · 1645

In duels of strategy you must move the opponent’s attitude. Attack where his spirit is lax, throw him into confusion, irritate and terrify him.

• DiscoursesEpictetus

You may have utensils of gold, but your discourse, opinions, beliefs, actions and desires are fragile as earthenware.

• Ada, or ArdorVladimir Nabokov

Revelation can be more perilous than Revolution.

• The Black SwanNassim Nicholas Taleb

Never ask me for my opinion, forecast or recommendation. Just ask what I have — or don’t have — in my portfolio.

• Staying UpwindPaul Graham The less sure you are about what to do, the more important it is to choose options that give you more options in the future. ↗
• The Right Kind of StubbornPaul Graham · 2024 The persistent are attached to the goal. The obstinate are attached to their ideas about how to reach it. ↗
• Lex FridmanLong-form conversation ↗
• Joe RoganLong-form conversation ↗
• Julia GalefRationality ↗
• Jonathan PageauSymbolism ↗
• Max DerratPhilosophy in games and film ↗
• Predictive HistoryHistory ↗
• Alex Jones ↗
• JabberwockyLewis Carroll · 1871 ’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. ↗
• The GraveRobert Blair · 1743

Tell us, ye dead! will none of you, in pity

To those you left behind, disclose the secret?

• If—Rudyard Kipling · 1910 If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you… ↗
• Быть знаменитым некрасивоBoris Pasternak · 1956 But be alive — only this matters — alive and burning to the end. ↗
• Leaves from the VineAvatar: The Last Airbender

Like fragile tiny shells

Drifting in the foam

• > We suffer more often in imagination than in reality.
Seneca
• > You have power over your mind — not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.
Marcus Aurelius
• > First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.
Epictetus
• > If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up the men to gather wood, divide the work and give orders. Teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
• > IN·LVMINE·TVO·VIDEBIMVS·LVMENIn lumine Tuo videbimus lumen

In Your light, we see light.

Columbia University
• > If you see no light around you, maybe you were meant to be the light.
• > NOSCE·TE·IPSVMNosce te ipsum

Know thyself.

Latin maxim

Was a plague while alive; dying, I will be your death.

Latin epitaph
• > OMNIA·ROMAE·VENALIA·SVNTOmnia Romae venalia sunt

Everything in Rome has its price.

Sallust
• TerrariaSandbox
The one that leaks into everything else. The pixel tree on my home page and the Zenith sword you are dragging around this site both come from here.
• The Witcher 3RPG
Side quests written better than most main stories. The photo wall borrows its look.
• Cyberpunk 2077RPG
Night City as a place rather than a backdrop.
• SkyrimRPG
The one you keep reinstalling. Ten years on it still finds a new corner to show you.
• MinecraftSandbox
The other half of the sandbox habit, and quietly the reason I like building systems other people poke at.
• Dota 2MOBA
The one that punishes ego. Five people solving the same problem in real time.
• Counter-Strike 2Shooter
Pure mechanics. Nothing to hide behind.
• BeholderNarrative
A landlord asked to inform on his tenants. Every choice costs somebody something.
• Beholder: ConductorNarrative
Same bleak world, new seat. The series keeps finding fresh ways to make you complicit.
• LEGO The HobbitAdventure
Middle-earth with the seriousness turned off. Unembarrassed comfort playing.
• P.T.Horror · 2014
A first‑person horror that loops one L‑shaped corridor until you work out how to break it. Put out free under a made‑up studio name, revealed as a teaser for a Silent Hills that was cancelled, then pulled from the store. The installs left on old consoles are the only copies there are.
