Just enough money to raise 3 kids in a rich country without having to work (so he can focus on whatever project he wants) and no more. Then maximize fame.

Fame is slightly convertible into money with generally little liquidity, but is more valuable if money becomes useless in a TEOTWAWKI.

Of course, in the end, one just does whatever seems cool and useful, and the Gods decide what proportion of fame/money/power they will get. Due to Ciro's love of open source software however, a higher fame percentage seems more likely than money.

Ciro Santilli's full name is quite unique and already dominated by this Ciro Santilli.

Searching just for just "Santilli" on Google does not give any Ciro Santilli hits. The name appears to be a minor variation of the much more common "Santini". Since the name is not that common, it is possible to go over all noteworthy hits. Some relevant ones are shown at: interesting members of the Santilli family.

Searching just for just "Ciro" on Google does not give any Ciro Santilli hits, mostly some smaller brands that could be beaten, this is Ciro's main initial fame metric goal. Reaching it would require doing things known much beyond the programming community however, as Ciro has done until of 2019. ciro.com is from an electromechanics consultancy as of 2019, so it's not bad, let them be.

At the next useless gamified level, an honorary OBE and more ambitiously ForMemRS from the Royal Society post nominal letters would be nice.

The ultimate dream however would be to beat Cyrus the Great himself on Google searches ("Ciro" == "Cyrus" in Portuguese), maybe becoming "Cyrus the Greater"? That one will be a bit harder though. Maybe if Falung Gong becomes the dominant religion in 2000 years like Christianism did, catapulting the Judaism benefactor Cyrus into greater fame, then there is some hope for Ciro as well.

Ciro once told a friend that his ideal life would be to "just chill out and eat his bread in peace" (while also learning and teaching the sciences). Quote "Omar Khayyam's chill out quote" comes to mind. See also: Ciro Santilli's cheapness.

"Ciro" is "Cyrus" from Cyrus the Great in both Portuguese and Italian (although with very different pronunciations), thus doubly appropriate given that Ciro Santilli was born in Brazil, and has Italian ancestry.

After he conquered Babylon in 539 BC from the hands Neo-Babylonian Empire, Cyrus the Great did a great service to the Hebrews by allowing war prisoners that were held in Babylon to back to their home Judea, thus terminating the Babylonian captivity. These Jews were imprisoned because they had previously fought a war or revolted against the Neo-Babylonian Empire and lost. As Wikipedia puts it:He is therefore viewed extremely positively in the good old book. Ciro was quite happy about this name choice by his father, given the human rights connotations of the figure and Ciro Santilli's self perceived compassionate personality.

Particularly fun things related to modern Cyrus are:

Because it belongs to some relatively obscure character of the Bible, the name it has been mostly passed on by writing to every single Christian country, and every single language came up with different way of saying it, because the only place they would possibly hear that name said out loud would be in Church!

As of 2020, the country in which the name is most popular in undoubtedly Italy. In Brazil, it is definitely not common, but also not completely unheard of either, e.g. Ciro Gomes is a notable Brazilian politician.

And Ciro responds to all the versions of the name that he knows of. These include:and glad to add any new ones as they come.

He is actually quite happy when people use the name in their own language, because that means they understand the origin of the name.

Some Ciro's of interest:

LOGCFL is a complexity class that stands for "Logarithmic Space Context-Free Languages." It is a subclass of context-free languages that can be recognized by a deterministic pushdown automaton operating in logarithmic space. More formally, a language is in LOGCFL if it can be decided by a deterministic Turing machine that uses logarithmic space and is able to make use of a stack, like a pushdown automaton.

"2008 software" could refer to a variety of software products that were released or popularized in the year 2008. However, it's common for people to mention "2008 software" in the context of Microsoft Office 2008 or Microsoft Windows Server 2008, among others. 1. **Microsoft Office 2008**: This is a version of Microsoft's productivity suite specifically designed for macOS.

NGC 6357 is an open cluster and stellar nursery located in the constellation Scorpius. It is part of a larger molecular cloud complex known as the "Cats Paw Nebula," which is rich in star formation activity. NGC 6357 contains several bright stars and is surrounded by a region of ionized gas and dust, which is illuminated by the high-energy radiation emitted by the young, massive stars within the cluster.

In biochemistry, the table of standard reduction potentials (E°' values) for half-reactions is crucial because it helps to predict the direction of redox reactions in biological systems. The standard reduction potential measures the tendency of a substance to gain electrons (be reduced). Here are some key points regarding its importance: 1. **Electron Transfer**: Many biochemical reactions involve the transfer of electrons, especially in metabolic pathways like cellular respiration and photosynthesis.

Richard C. Lord could refer to various individuals, but without more specific context, it is difficult to provide a definitive answer.

"Simple 4-line" can refer to a few different contexts, but it's often understood in relation to poetry or structured writing. In poetry, it typically means a four-line stanza or quatrain that conveys a complete thought or idea. Each line may follow a specific rhyme scheme or meter, though that can vary widely depending on the poet’s style.

The Witten index is a concept in theoretical physics, specifically in the contexts of supersymmetry and quantum field theory. It is named after the physicist Edward Witten, who introduced it in the context of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. The Witten index is defined as a particular counting of the number of ground states (or lowest energy states) of a supersymmetric quantum system.

Promethium is a chemical element with the symbol Pm and atomic number 61. It is part of the lanthanide series of the periodic table. Promethium is one of the rarest elements on Earth and is radioactive, with no stable isotopes. Its most common isotopes are promethium-145 and promethium-147. Promethium does not occur naturally in significant quantities; it was discovered in 1945 by chemists Glenn T.

Angelic non-determinism is a concept from the field of theoretical computer science, particularly in the study of semantics in programming languages and computational models. It is associated with the classification of non-deterministic behaviors in computations. In non-deterministic computation, there are multiple possible outcomes for a given computational step. Angelic non-determinism allows a computation to choose from several possibilities, but it selects the "best" or "most favorable" outcome based on certain criteria.

In music theory, "root position" refers to the arrangement of a chord where the root note is the lowest in pitch. For example, in a C major triad (C-E-G), the root position would have C as the lowest note, arranged as C-E-G. Root position is contrasted with other chord positions such as first inversion and second inversion.

Treble voice typically refers to a high-pitched vocal range, often associated with children or female singers. In choral music, a treble voice is usually indicative of the higher parts sung by sopranos or treble singers, who generally sing notes above middle C on the piano (C4) and can extend up to E5 or higher.

A goniometer is an instrument used to measure angles or to assess the range of motion in joints. It is commonly employed in fields such as physical therapy, orthopedics, and sports medicine to evaluate joint flexibility and to document changes in range of motion over time. There are several types of goniometers: 1. **Universal Goniometer**: This is a common type that has two arms and a protractor-like scale in the center.

A saddle point is a point on the surface of a graph where the slope (or derivative) is zero in multiple dimensions, but is not a local extremum (i.e., not a local maximum or minimum). It occurs in both single-variable and multivariable calculus, although the characteristics can differ slightly based on the context.

"Statistical Applications in Genetics and Molecular Biology" refers to the use of statistical methods and models to analyze data generated from genetic and molecular biology research. This field combines principles from statistics, genetics, and bioinformatics to address various research questions and challenges in understanding biological processes at the molecular level.
