I am in a good place right now. Strangely, it is because of Claude.

I used to have to choose when I was chasing down ideas. I would lose steam midway through writing something I wanted to write. The boring but important parts, the ones that make a piece more than a rant or a baseless opinion, were too time-consuming for me to do. So I asked Claude to implement its suggestion of a “70 percent is done” rule, and it has been such a weight lifted off me.

Lovingly made with Claude.

Madaling tumulo ang luha ko lately.

I got overly emotional while reading One Piece’s Chapter 1000.

And i was in tears when I saw that warnock won a senate seat. The power of one. Thank you Georgia. Thank you Stacey Abrams and team.

I don’t know what happened but I am busier now than I was last Tuesday.
I really want to be mad at certain persons right now but the reality is if you’re plans are being trashed by someone else then there was a lapse in judgement on your part that cannot be ignored.  You lack a fail safe of some kind. You trusted the wrong person. You over estimated someone’s capacity for change or leadership.
You have no one else to blame but yourself.
 
So busy but I so fucking want to binge sense8 season 2.

Di ko ma i post sa facebook.
Ayaw ko na magalit ulit ang misis at nanay ko sa akin.
Para sa mga tards kong kakilala. Kailangan bang i claim ng china ang quezon city para matauhan kayong lahat?

I just spent 3 hours trying to track down why my eureka clients cant connect to my eureka server whenever I change the user.
It was a one line config.
I love spring-boot but sometimes the magic is too hard to track.
I spent an hour going through various config files.
It was fun learning the innards of spring boot.

It just hit me.
What the greeks are doing is what a lot of Filipinos wanted Cory Aquino to from the Philippines’ creditors.

Sometimes we feel alien in our own society. That’s what drew me into watching foreign films. Filipino culture sometimes tends to be less retrospective too permissive and yet too suffocating that seeing a different perspective, a new perspective can breath fresh air to a thousand conversations done thousands of times with different people on the same inane things.

Musings on a thing on the Checklist

I’ve just dissuaded a couple of officemates thinking of getting training from an it training center from a school that I am ambivalent towards.
I did this with a heavy heart because a part of me feels like a traitor. The part of me that won was the part that cared towards other people. The part that wouldn’t shut up if you didn’t at least try to steer people towards a better outcome.
This has brought to my attention a dearth of great IT training places in the Philippines. I’ve always had a school as part of the checklist. What can one do?
Have to research the IT training programs available locally.

I’ve been thinking of making a change for about 2 weeks already. (About the same time I’ve been arriving at work by 7am). The two things are different facets of the same thing.
Like a lot of things in this world, if you look then you’ll probably find something. If you try to find flaws in something you will most definitely find it. If you try to find reasons to leave then you will most definitely find it.
More to follow.
