Different Ciphers (will add more later)
Category: Games
The Caesar cipher: involves shifting around the value or start point of the letters of the alphabet, for example: If normally A=0 B=1 C=2 I could instead start the alphabet at X=0 Y=1 Z=2 and it would loop back around to A=3 B=4 C=5 until we reach all 25.

Contra Spem Spero by Lesya Ukrainka translated by Vera Rich Thoughts away, you heavy clouds of autumn! For now springtime comes, agleam with gold!

Dietrich Bonhoeffer's theory of stupidity
Category: Religion and Philosophy
I've been getting into learning about Dietrich Bonhoeffer recently, which has been really interesting! His theory of stupidity is especially interesting and relevant to the present. "Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice. One may protest against evil; it can be exposed and, if need be, prevented by use of force. Evil always carries within itself the germ of its own subversion... » Continue Reading
