Ali's Journal

I planned to write every day. The diary hasn’t been updated regularly. I try to post every day from now on. I’ll probably go to Izmit tomorrow. I sent a request via Airbnb but it hasn’t been confirmed yet.

UPDATE 1:

There was a mistake in my bank accounts. I asked to put all my money except a small portion of it in an account and issue a debit card connected to that account and another account connected to a credit card which will be ready next week. But it was mixed up. There is little money in the debit card and most of the money is apparently inaccessible until next week. One of the accounts contains Turkish lire and the other contains Euro, and I can’t transfer between my accounts via the mobile app. So I should stay another day in Istanbul and go to the bank branch tomorrow.

From now on I will only rely on my own common sense in deciding what to do (and I think this was the intended outcome of this test) and ignore whatever they say. These tests destroyed your credibility since I can’t trust any of your words in the future. This is a very important consequence. I should have responded differently when you first started these types of tests. You kept doing it over and over (and kept destroying your credibility) because I didn’t respond properly.

I will follow Turkey’s railways and visit cities along the railway and probably get to the Iran border in some weeks.

UPDATE 1:

Of course, other countries try to take advantage of the situation. What I’m trying to do is to estimate how the strangest attack can be organized. If the government is incompetent and keeps destroying its credibility then the private sector is the best option to carry out the attack.

I’m in Istanbul. I might stay longer here. The first few days are typically spent learning basic things about the city. I’ll visit historical buildings tomorrow around 6 pm.

I spent so much time today on the way (most of it from the airport to the hotel) that I won’t write much today.

UPDATE 1:

My initial plan was to stay in small cities with a fixed budget that will last for an unknown amount of time. It’s hard to estimate how the trip should be at this point. Things might change then my plan will change as well. So at this point, I’m learning how things should be for this type of long-term trip.

Article 3 cannot be rewritten using mathematical notations because it is more explanations rather than definitions and step-by-step proofs so I’ll probably send it to a physics journal. Meanwhile, I’ll be working on Article 5 and then rewrite Articles 4 and 5 (the imaginary component and the Riemann sphere) based on OOP structure which involves definitions and things like that, so math notations can be used here.

I will stay in Turkey for as long as I can (max 3 months), but then I should go somewhere else. Armenia or Georgia are geographically close to Russia but since options are limited I may go there afterwards. There are other countries located on different continents but I can stay there for around 30 days for example, so they aren’t on the list. I can stay in Nepal for 90 days but that’s geographically close to China.

I have a ticket for Saturday. But this was a mistake. the sooner I go, the sooner I will return. So it was better if I had waited a bit longer. There was no way for me to realize whether I was strongly advised to do something or it was just a suggestion. So the trip at this point is a mistake but I can’t cancel it now and I should go. I will stay in Turkey for 2.5 months then probably go to Armenia or Georgia for around 3 months and most probably I will return afterwards. Meanwhile, I will work on the math structure and continue working on the platform which will be developed by the private sector before The Green Party will be involved. I think this is a better route, especially for the boycott project.

My decisions are based on try-and-error. If the advice I get proved to be merely suggestions, I will rely less and less on external advice. So this is the plan: I will work on the math structure and it will take some months (it might be finished in Turkey, Armenia or it might be finished when I return to Iran) and then I’ll try to publish it.

Since I will return, the longer I stay the more suspicious it will be, and I’ll be questioned upon arrival after a long purposeless trip, Based on my common sense I think it is best to stay in Turkey for max 2 months and return and continue working on the book in Iran. and start another trip when the book is done.
