About how much I know about compiling codes form source

Practically speaking, I’m just a script kiddie copying and pasting walk-throughs made by the kind people in the Open Source movement. I set-up this web server with the help of Google, and a liberal amount of experimentation (and lots of reformatting to get rid of all the odd-balls that pop up). So today, when I [...]

A message of hope

At nearly a quarter of a century years old, I thought that I had finally gotten the rhythm of the world, and how to tick. The events that unfolded these few months proved not only the unpredictability of this world, but also the extent of my naivety. For the past 3 years of my polytechnic [...]

Why your Facebook page isn’t your rant-board

[Via @JoeAugustin, via @johnkerrnz, via @MarketingEds] When a large part of your social network is on Facebook, you don’t really want to post up your negative thoughts about any one of your contact on your Facebook, because, well: I think your contact can see your rant.

My blog, which was hosted on Blogger, went down ridiculously often, so I decided to go professional on my web hosting, [...]

Totally Eclipse of… what?

Music videos from the 1980s can look totally random, and make sense at the same time. But what if Bonnie Tyler actually sung what’s happening in the music video instead of the actual lyrics?

Why IT developers only get balder

There’s a lecturer in school with no hair. Just a shiny chrome atop the forehead of a really friendly person. I know that because I’ve met and talked to him on a few occasions, and he’s almost always smiling, even during the one time he barged into the classroom mid-lesson to conduct that one-off spot-check [...]
