💭 Happy Father’s Day: I buried mine when I was 16 years old. Lung cancer. He was a homophobe but loved and supported his son anyway. Very militaristic, taught me how to be organized, clean, and tidy, and often said: “Let your work speak for itself.” Told me to keep my shoes and belts always clean. Loved the cars as I do, and said: “The car is a representation of you as a man; keep it clean, keep it maintained; it will serve you well.” Knowing my obsession with computers, he bought me one with his limited funds. I still appreciate it. Not a pity party, life can be real sometimes. Rest in peace, Dad. You are greatly missed, and I know you would be very proud of me. 2026-06
🇺🇸 🇹🇷 idk, it was embarrassing to watch the team, and it is a mix of emotions to watch the last game. 2026-06

reminder:

Ableism is the discrimination of and social prejudice against people with disabilities based on the belief that typical abilities are superior. At its heart, ableism is rooted in the assumption that disabled people require ‘fixing’ and defines people by their disability. Like racism and sexism, ableism classifies entire groups of people as ‘less than,’and includes harmful stereotypes, misconceptions, and generalizations of people with disabilities.

💭 fs / fox commentary for world up is making me switch to telemundo. so irrelevant and subjective. 2026-06
💭 this “US government blocked our Fable/Mythos” PR is such a well-scripted broadway play, it should be a nominee for the next wga or oscars. 2026-06
❤️ newly released C++ documentary, must watch! Bjarne Stroustrup is a legend, incredibly inspiring to me! I still keep referring back to his books!

💭 Today, one can reproduce/generate anyone’s 6-8 years of PhD work to a working product with 4-6 hours and 50$ of API calls. Anything can be reverse engineered, even without detailed documentation. It all ends up, the edge is, knowing how to build systems. 2026-04
💭 agents talking to agents talking to agents.

💭 apple tv’s formula one commentary and the broadcast is just awful! making me feel like as if i am watching UFC match or something. the whole cast needs replacement. very disappointed. missing sky sports broadcast! 2026-03

🤓 you know you are a nerd when you put your TB dataset on HDD and not SSD, intentionally, to hear it keep fetching data making the disk noise, it is r/oddlysatisfying. 2026-01
🚦 Cursor needs to stay competitive, especially in AI coding market, with their latest pricing change, it became unnecessarily expensive, while there are similar altnernatives… 2026-01
💭 i am still mindblown how fast one can build with LLMs, as long as they know what they are doing. 2026-01
💭 some things are learnt with age. 2025-12
🙃 Got a compliment from someone I really respect today. Made my day.

💭 as humanity, we are creating illusionary intelligence, not artificial intelligence. artificial requires understanding of said existence, and such understanding doesn’t exist, and it will never exist 100%. saturating to 99.9% is the humanity’s race. 2025-11
🤩 You are looking out the window and notice… 😂 love SF. I want to get on it!! Where/who do I email? Never thought the nerd in me would get this happy and excited seeing a blimp. Pathfinder-1 by LTA Research.

💭 Using AI/LLMs to write code or a function is simple, when you attempt to build a project, then you have to worry about CI/CD, code reviews, quality and testing. Many “vibe coders” miss the point on it and are stuck in continuous debug mode. Streamline your dev flow with LLMs first! 2025-10
💭 PRD->ARCH->SCRUM->DEV->QA

Can we merge some different dimensions in the same perspective?

💭 Something I’ve read online “Forget about prompts. It’s all about context. And yes, the more precise your context, the more relevant the model’s completion. And yes, it’s exhausting. Actually I believe gathering the most precise context is the core of your added value while working with LLMs” cannot agree more➕ 2025-10

✍️ as the only engineering person in the trade secrets, patents and trademarks class in law school, back in UT-Austin, I certainly do know and believe in the importance of the topic. If you ever interested, read the lawsuits around such topics. 2025-09
💭 BMAD method is a sign of where we are headed… 2025-09
💭 World doesn’t need AI generated movies for entertainment. 

World needs realistic computer games where user choices end up in different stories or timelines. It’s like a movie. That’s where AI-generation comes in. 

Gaming companies, I believe in y’all!

🧐 I still find myself using Sonnet 4 more than GPT-5, for coding. 2025-08
🧠 Neural networks are becoming more efficient every day. The rate at which AI is advancing is both exciting and a bit scary. What happens when we can run GPT-5 level models on a smartphone? 2024-04
