+title: hello, world!
+date: 01/02/2025
+author: thomas bruce
+---
+
+hello, world!
+
+this is my first blog post here, and really ever. going to be interesting to see
+if i upkeep this as frequently as i would like. this post is just to get some
+basic information out of the way, so i can write freely and answer any questions
+which might be had.
+
+### about me:
+my name is thomas bruce. i am a computer science (software engineering) student
+and mathematics student in the hudson valley, new york. i've independently been
+studying computing and maths for some years prior, however. other academic
+interests of mine include botany, climatology, and political theory.
+
+hobbies of mine include: long-distance running, reading (mostly philosophy or
+other nonfiction areas), cooking, torturing myself (writing software), and
+having fun (writing software)
+
+obviously this not an all-encompassing biography.
+
+### some random points/disclaimers
+there are some important things to get out of the way:
+
+#### what's with the lack of capitalization?
+i prefer to keep my writing (outside of academic writing) in all lowercase for
+a few reasons:
+
+ - it looks better to me
+ - it works well with my font
+ - my wpm increases slightly
+
+if you don't like it, write a tampermonkey script to capitalize my site, and
+share it for free on a non-restrictive platform.
+
+#### my politics
+while i will continue to maintain that politics aren't the sole defining
+feature of an individual, it is nothing but fair to give a bit of a bias
+disclaimer about my poltical leanings. my political writings will (unless my
+mind is changed) be coming from a more lib-left slant than anything else. i will
+be wrong about things, or disagree with you on things, and that is ok! friction
+in the physical world releases energy, which has an effect on its surroundings.
+it is the same with disagreement among individuals; disagreement is nothing but
+the potential for further learning and understanding.
+
+i do hold that there is a fundamental difference between politics and
+politicking about social issues. i will differentiate between the two in my
+writings.
+
+#### thoughts on identity
+i take a sligtly more "free" approach to identity than some of my peers, based
+on a loose interpretation of karl popper's philosophies: identity is not based
+in the determinism of historical materialism, i.e. it is not merely a result
+of conditions and intrinsic stati, but more due to individual's ability to
+reason critically and their choices thereof. it is my opinion that when the self
+is boiled down to a set of terms (labels) or (heaven forbid) diagnoses, it
+becomes an externally-mediated concept rather than an actual personal identity.
+it becomes a surface-level conceptualization of what it means to be "me", rather
+than a deep knowledge of one's self. it becomes a way to explain away the
+behaviours, quirks, idiosyncrasies, and more as due to a diagnosis or label or
+distinction of some other kind rather than the mild differences which we all
+hold from each other.
+
+i don't want it to be thought that i reject the comfort aspect of labels,
+however. i just think that there is so much more to identity than words and
+phrases. but i do think that this trend, ironically, serves to perpetuate what
+was antithetical to both marx' and popper's ideologies: it continues to create
+hierarchies and social distinctions which do nothing but hinder individuality
+at its purist form.
+
+### outro
+that about sums it up for this post. looking forward to writing my next one.
