a convoluted way of color-coding school subjects

school has recently begun, so the debate of which colors represents which subjects has resumed, which, due to all that BABBLING, the demons that dwell within me has gone vexed and famished for conclusion.... to satiate them, i've devised a versatile 2-step solution that even color-blinded people can use!

PROBLEMS

unfortunately, there are an infinite amount of subjects to account for, and a finite amount of colors that us humans can distinguish. therefore, we cannot universally categorize each subject, and universally assign a color to each subject, so the solution must be per capita.

furthermore, colors are set in a linear spectrum, therefore, subjects can be organized dichotomously as to reflect the color spectrum when categorizing, which concomitantly makes color-conflicts impossible.

and finally, everyone should be able to use the solution, even people with color blindness, therefore [so many therefores ik], after categorizing, the user should be able to adjust the subject's position, such that the subject is mapped to a distinguishable color without disheveling the ordering of the subjects.

THE SOLUTION

first off, ✨ categorizing/organizing 📚!!

(there's a Twitter meme where there's a happy anime girl with text saying something like "categorizing and organizing!!". i can't find it. please help me).

you'll need 2 categories that can be anything as long as they're different from each other, so you can assign positions of what subjects are closer to which of the 2 categories. by anything, i mean anything: you can even have toaster vs microwave. then, choose which category will be on the left or right side of the spectrum. i've been using physics vs philosophy (more details in a further section).

next off, select a subject and ask yourself, "is this more related to the left or right side". for example,

"is biology more related to a toaster or a microwave? well, biological systems rely on energy, and microwaves use electromagnetic energy to heat food while a toaster doesn't directly heat food but rather heats rods that heats the food. thus, if we view food as the biological systems, biology is more related to microwaves than toasters."

this is purely based on your own world view, so you can have various rationales based on different aspects of the relationships between the subject and categories. for example, a contrasting rationale is,

"biology is more related to a toaster because my grandma was a biologist! (she wasn't actually... tbh, i don't know what she did)."

the contrasting world view is more family-focused, as apposed to the more nerdy-loner previous approach.

for the remaining subjects, ask the same question while considering similar subjects.

"computer science is more related to microwaves, even more related than biology, so i'll place computer science close to microwaves than biology."

next off, ✨ coloring 🌈!!

you only need to choose 2 colors. preferably 2 colors that are broadly apart, like violet and red since every color of the visible light spectrum is between those 2. but since color-blinded people exists 😒 any 2 colors suffices.

next, assign the left or right side one of the colors, and assign the other side with the other color. now, each subject is assigned a color!!! but wait... you'll notice that some subjects are too close to each other to have a distinguishable color, which is why you'll need to adjust the space between each subject, such that each subject has a distinguishable color.

THE HUMANE SOLUTION

i lost all motivation to write/tidy the rest of this post, so goodbye!!!
