• Who does this?

  Just another self-taught wannabe translator.

• You messed up a translation. How do I tell you?

  Try #octonionic on Rizon. You could also email word@word.org, where word is the name of this site.

• What the hell is an octonion?

  It's a math thing, like complex numbers but even moreso. The joke is that if you use the octonions instead of the real numbers, certain geometrical constructions (projective spaces) exist 2-dimensionally, but not 3-dimensionally.
