Analysis and Opinion By Karl Garcia Let us look Philippine industrialization — after our recent look at agriculture. ASEAN INTEGRATION ASEAN integration was a measure intended for a level playing field in terms of development. The trade war showed us the ugliness of imposing high tariffs all in the name of protectionism. The said trade […]

Analysis and opinion By Joe America This blog article is being written by dictation. This is a skill I learned from my son who is undertaking distance learning. It seems to me that distance learning is the future. The classroom is so 1900s. Technology is the way of the world today. We should use […]
Distance learning is cool; classrooms are so 1900s
It seems to me the Plunder’s family is doing the same as these UCA people.
The Problem of Confederate Statues on U.S. Public Lands Sep 28, 2020 Southern Civil War symbols have been a flash point in towns and cities for years, but at places like the Gettysburg battlefield and Arlington National Cemetery—which are run by the Park Service and the Pentagon—there’s a new, escalating conflict over monuments that honor the Lost Cause. Let’s do a mental exercise about Confederate monuments in public spaces: I’ll describe one that doesn’t exist, and you tell me whether you’d find it offen

Have you ever said, “I know I can do this job if someone would just give me a chance!”
Guess what?
It’s probably not gunna happen.
Most companies aren’t just going to “give someone a chance.”
Recruiting and training are crazy expensive, a bad hire can cost a company TONS of $$$.
If you want a chance, you need to get out there and create it.

Some solid advice mixed with some unenforceable moonshots. Nice mix.
The COVID-19 pandemic has illustrated how irrational the financial sector has become. Even as the real economy has ground to a halt, stock prices have gyrated wildly, first collapsing, then shooting up. Even as hundreds of millions suffer, Wall Street’s frenzied speculative activities have led to big tech corporations like Apple gaining in value and making money hand over fist.
It is as if the global financial crisis of 2008 and the ensuing recession and stagnation never happened. History explains why.
In early 2009, a newly inaugurated President Barack Obama corralled Wall Street’s most powerful CEOs into a White House dining room and chastised them for the recklessly high salaries and bonuses they paid themselves during a financial crisis they had caused.

If the Philippines is a Catholic nation, or otherwise religious, how can it be morally bankrupt? It has a Constitution and laws. It has a broad educational system that teaches honesty and doing right things.
Yet the nation is morally bankrupt. Corrupt, incompetent, and fake in the sense that it persecutes the innocent, denies accountability for anything wrong, and trolls ‘yellow’s or ‘reds’ while considering their objections to be sedition or terror.
Analysis and Opinion By Irineo B. R. Salazar The Philippines is an enigma to many. There is the “Heritage of Smallness” (Nick Joaquin) which doesn’t scale well, as I have written in “The National Village”. There is a certain insularity which I think is the result of having gone From the Edge to the Middle […]

Summary Don’t be a regular user. Be a power user instead. Always go a step further than the others and see where it takes you. Always take note of inefficiencies and try to mitigate them. My solution to this should be familiar to most developers: a Kanban board. Every time I notice something that slows me down, I write it down as a To-Do. Whenever I have some time to spare, I try to find a fix for it.
