To feel.
I wanna understand people. I wanna feel their words. And I wanna send a little noise into their heart. I wanna have a home in their heart. Is that too much? I don't think so.
Gathering thoughts…
Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
I wanna understand people. I wanna feel their words. And I wanna send a little noise into their heart. I wanna have a home in their heart. Is that too much? I don't think so.
People find their own ways on how they want to give back to society and people in their lives. Giving back to society is about making a positive impact, and there is always something out there for everyone. My mother was not from a very wealthy background, so she would say there will never be a perfect time to give…
There were few mass shootings in the US over last couple of days and this got me thinking what could be the root causes of such a hideous act of crime. The incidents were given different names such as - gun violence, hate crime, domestic terrorism, white supremist attack etc. based on which media outlet you consume…
[since pretty much no one would be able to find this link unless they saw my goodreads account, i've decided to put a lot of my book-focused ideas here] some readers are also writers, but sometimes people are just purely readers. i'm watching tokyochemist on youtube compare virginia woolf and ottessa moshfegh and she…
Unstructured work is under appreciated. It's the kind of work you do when there are unknown unknowns. Or when you're searching for a solution that might exist, but you don't know where to look. Or the work you do in pursuit of perfection, which can never be recognised, except in its absence. The process can be…
I used to think to produce good work, I have to duck my head down, empty myself, fully, so that I could un-become, and just be - right - do the right thing - somehow. I now know that my best bet is to integrate, to align, to face my heart, and yours. My best bet is to take things to their logical conclusion - because…
When ever we talk about ARM and Performance. Most discussions, whether that is on Twitter, HN or Reddit immediately jump into an Apple Fanboy thread. And pointing out how far behind the other ARM cores are. But is that really the case? Apple A16 has a GB5 of 1870 @ 3.6Ghz. Running at close to 5W. On the same TSMC 4nm,…
“Acho que vocês deveriam sonhar a terra, pois ela tem coração e respira.” —- Davi Kopenawa, entrevista a F. Watson. Breu, mas o escuro não impedia a visão, a floresta trazia conforto e não medo, haviam muitas flores tropicais com os mais sedutores tons, as ciano eram leves e moviam lentamente com o vento, as de…
É meu primeiro dia de volta ao trabalho depois da cirurgia que abriu minha barriga em três lugares. O céu chora compulsivamente em SP ilustrando bem meu estado de espírito. Eu quero muito ganhar na loteria para não ter que trabalhar. Passaria o dia inteiro pintando, fazendo cursos, cantando e dançando nua e aprendendo…
For years, I spent my Saturday morning grocery shopping for the week. My workweek routine drove my weekend routine. Now I’m retired. I’m very routine-driven. I would need to prepare my list early. This required a change in thinking. I saw an advantage. If my granddaughter came to spend the night, grocery shopping…
I have three weeks until the first day of school, and the teaching dreams have already started. I don't mean aspirations and hopes kind of dreams; I mean REM sleep dreams. These dreams follow a predictable, yet challenging, pattern. A disruptive and defiant student is acting out, and it's severe enough that it must be…
I went to dinner with a group of strangers. After each course, I was paired with someone new. I met three interesting people. There was a stack of conversational cues on the table if we didn't know what to talk about. We were allowed talk about anything we want, except what we do. This wasn't about dating. That's not…
Sim, ainda estou em Belo Horizonte. Hoje fui comer a famosa rosca com queijo canastra, açúcar e canela lá no mercado central acompanhada de um cafezinho preto maroto. Que delícia ein! Minas gerais não decepciona em nada na comida. Em nada. Do café da manhã ao jantar, tudo impecável! Do incrível Café Palhares, onde…
Ahh recently i was prompted by someone to try a different technique for a creation. it was new to me and required patience to learn. as i played with the technique, my ideas evolved into a more interesting creation. now it is time to further that idea and create something even better...
The last few months have been brutal for businesses. Layoff announcements, the world over, are seeing all labor go from being valuable to dispensable in no time. Isn't it a bit baffling that businesses don't pause celebrity-led campaigns while they make all the "tough calls?" A few of the big ed-tech companies in…
So I have this little theory about communion. It's not something I care enough about to actully research - but I think it's fun in a 'plausible but unscientific TV plot' kind of way. So most people are familiar with the practice of communion in the Christian church, people eat little bits of bread and wine which…
Ahhhh some days are experienced yet sit deep within my subconscious never to be recalled on. today could be one of those days...
Ahh powerful moments in history are not the creations of what we make now. it is the evolution of conversation around the creations that dictate what makes history...
More need to realize the age we as a species will soon enter. While the old system titters at the brink, the dawn of a new way of life will follow quickly and make the suffering of this age die like a bad habit. Let me explain (and this is the perfect platform to do this). Every technology we’ve built has iterated…
In 2000 Portugal had a massive drug problem. 1% of the population was addicted to heroin. They'd been trying to solve the problem the American way. Put people in jail. Shame and ostracize drug users. Every year the problem got worse. Eventually it got so bad that the prime minister and the leader of the opposition…
I recently broke up with my girlfriend of 3 years. And within 2 weeks i was back on hinge. At first I loved being on the app. The validation of women liking you for your looks with no idea how your personality would grate against theirs. Swiping, swiping, chatting, chatting. Plenty is waxed on how great the validation…
Twitter is not so much a social media company as a core part of the global digital infrastructure. Today, that core infrastructure that hosts billions of messages - from the public communications of governments, corporations, civil society and celebrities to the mundane rants of ordinary citizens - is about to pass,…
Oi. Hoje eu fiz uma fala preconceituosa com uma colega de trabalho amarela e quero um buraco pra me enfiar. Foi relacionado ao estereótipo batido de japoneses fotógrafos, porque tem esse senso de que fotografar é quase natural pra eles... Que estupidez. Tô me sentindo mal e vou remoer isso um pouquinho, pera lá.…
The cold, empty space stares back at me: What if it doesn't resonate? What if I'm not pleased with it? Tick-tock More seconds elapse and I don't even have a draft to call first. It's an uncomfortable feeling. Staring across the chasm between the brilliant insight in your mind and the not-yet-articulated onto the…
Ahhh... Artificial Intelligence (AI) has intrigued me recently because it challenges the way we understand. it is like a true mirror of ourselves. it has the potential to create beauty and already does. but it may also show us a side of ourselves we do not like...
Is not you’re kaypo about others (Used to think some people are too busybody) But you understand there is such thing called people intelligence And the desire and initiative to know something from the start till the end Understand more Know what is the characteristics and “ability” each person carry Everyone is…
Two young fish are swimming along, when they come across an older fish swimming the other way. He nods at them, saying, “Morning, boys. How’s the water?” The two young fish swim on; eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes, “What the hell is water?” David Foster Wallace narrated this parable to…
the night appears to pass in blinks yet the dreams hold ages, it seems. the pleasant stories playing in a thread, we crave, they never come to an end. to finish them, trying again to sleep, the thoughts resurfacing from the deep. too-bad, the stories refuse to weave, how quickly we let the gone to leave. how many more…
If God really loved us, would He make us make coffee before we’ve had coffee?
Make sure you have support when you're about to Quit Something. You may want a friendly presence while you're navigating the unfamiliarity of a new identity - the You After The Quitting. You may want help while you re-orient yourself among the bewilderment of others who would rather you didn't Quit the Thing. And…
Pari, you have an issue: 1. You assume for yourself where other people's boundaries lie, and tend to not believe them when they say where it is 2. In your intense need to people please and avoid conflict, you automatically regulate your own emotions and actions as per where you think their boundaries lie. This is…
I find myself mindlessly following small details around stuff I have no interest in, hour after hour, achieving nothing. It's not just me. We are all flooding our systems with more irrelevant information than ever before, and the more there is the less we can focus on any one piece. This increase in the volume of…
I started out with a writing goal of everyday and I literally forgot the very next day to write a post :( Nevertheless, I'm convincing myself that writing is a skill to be learnt and it happens slowly. So I'm trying not to be hard on myself. Today I want to write about something which I have struggling with this in…
A lot of times we made decisions and kinda regret them But that doesn’t mean that we’re making the wrong decisions A lot of the time I was anxious, feeling not like myself because of money I was an avoidant I didn’t want to embrace my feelings But take all that emotions in And learn how to deal with pain That’ll bring…
There are some conversations where it is just so interesting, but you don't have any knowledge about or have any chance of participating, that was me today. When a topic gets too specific into a certain area that is unknown to me I'm just speechless, can't even think of relevant questions to ask even if I am curious…
Sometimes, the best thing that you can do for yourself and the one you love is to let go. It's a difficult decision but is also the right decision.
To begin some things either there should be passion or fear in your heart. Guess I have both and additionally the overwhelming feeling in my head which pushes me away from my tasks and also pulls me back from long procrastination. I remember learning this word "Overwhelmed" in my 10th standard. My English teacher told…
Here I plant my flag, in words three hundred, Each word is precious, they're exactly numbered; Of course, we could do like the ancient Greeks And write without the spaces -- we'd be freaks! But -- problem solved! We'd have limits no more. The host would think that I'm a writing drunkard -- In which case I'd certainly…
If you're building anything that involves AI, then you have to know about the bitter lesson. The bitter lesson is an article by Rich Sutton from March 13, 2019. This sounds like ancient AI lore but is only six years old. Rich Sutton, a pioneer of reinforcement learning and a Turing Award winner, wrote a short essay…
Friendly reminder to save your amazing ideas before they disappear into the void. Find a note app you love, or go old school with a note pad. Simple pen and paper. Write your ideas down right when you think of them. Review them daily. Don't forget to take action. Let your ideas live. Don't let them die on the page.…
Earlier this week, a friend shared the official first song of his son, released in mainstream media. Very deep lyrics for an 18 year old to sing, about grief, death, the transient nature of our lives, before moving to the main theme of gratitude. Listening to it, immediately brought an inner smile to my being. I…
it's haunting the extent to which i have gone quiet. last night i opened my instagram after a long time. it's purely an exhibitionist platform, but that aside i've some threads in there. most of them begin to grow quiet around 2018, gradually deafening in 2019 and coming to complete silence in 2020 - when i quit. i've…
codeberg.org merupakan website remote yang cukup customable dengan keamanan privasi yang ditingkatkan (klaim dari codeberg.com). Aku mulai menggunakan codeberg belum lama ini yang dikhususkan untuk hal-hal pribadi, sedangkan github aku khususkan untuk dokumentasi tugas kuliah atau proyek yang mengharuskan menggunakan…
You probably read that time and was like "wooow super revolutionary concept dude, you're a genius!". Or something like that. But the point stays even in days like today. And yes. This is related to my entry from the previous day. I've received a few emails from folks who are like "I hate Black Friday and I'm not going…
My PKM includes not only fingertips to keyboard and screen to type but also fingers around a pen or pencil to write on paper. (Yes, I use Rocketbook. No, I don't have a tablet - yet.) Listening. When a prompt in LYT Workshop 9 was posted to share memorable podcasts, I immediately thought of and shared - this podcast…
Doing some research tonight, but came across this helpful commentary on 1 Corinthians 15:22-23 from St John Chrysostom (Homily 39): "For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive." What then? Tell me; did all die in Adam the death of sin ? How then was Noah righteous in his generation? And how…
There are moments that we don't really feel proud of, moments or decisions that come as an reaction to something, for example, responding in a certain way, with a certain tone of voice, but it just comes out of us. These moments as well as many other might it be good or bad experiences and reactions are still part of…
It's been a while since I wrote. A whole month has passed. There was some anxiety closer to the NT Scan when I started bleeding a little. Nothing to worry, baby is doing well. We made a baby announcement. Was happy to share this news with the world. Almost 15 weeks pregnant now. A long way to go, but have also come a…
