Should I try to ride the AI wave and create something around it? I have made multiple attempts in the past, but the technology was not ready at the time and it was quite expensive. Now, we have Llama which we can run offline.
We also have some successful examples like Seinfeld, so I can take away some ideas from it.
I am thinking of making a virtual streamer which will give some nonsensical live news, have a junk cooking show, and a ridiculous museum.
What do you think?
I think we should start calling people who have reached the age of 25 “quarter-centurians”. Sounds cool!
If you have a TikTok full of nerdy science videos and you want to watch pretty dancing girls, ask your friend mohjii to watch your TikTok for 15 minutes. Satisfaction guaranteed.
I have a stupid question. How are trees helping to fight against global warming? So they use CO2 from the atmosphere and it becomes wood. When the tree dies and its trunk falls down and decays, it logically goes back to the atmosphere. To capture carbon, the tree has to fossilize. Is that correct?

TMI warning. Sometimes I use the multiplication challenge iPhone app on the toilet, instead of Twitter or TikTok. And if you make a multiplication mistake the app makes an awful fail sound. I noticed that if I disable sound I can solve sets of challenges way faster. I think negative reinforcement makes me perform worse.
Hey, I signed up for everlasting summer and occasional earthquakes, and I have wild fires, a lot of rain and now a HURRICANE? i NEED MY MONEY BACK!
I want to just sit and listen to some random Japanese music, like J-Pop and J-Rock, at midnight, and know that tomorrow I can wake up after noon and do whatever I want to do. But tomorrow I need to go to work and do work.
I hate Tesla blinkers; I never know if they are blinking or not.

Close to me, people learned to always tell me the truth or nothing. Because if something doesn’t add up, it bothers me nonstop until things make sense.
One thing that bothers me is the damage on the other car; it is much more and does not match the damage on my car. I don’t know what it means, though. But it bothers me.
It might be nothing, but I cannot brush it off.

I do not like working in the office. There are a lot of cars on the road, the stuffy air in the room in the morning and cold in the evening, there is constant chatter in the background, long lines to get food, and the uncomfortable chair.
It is 80°F in my room and I am freezing. Looks like something glitched in the Matrix.
I feel tomorrow I’ll wake up and images of aliens released and alien aircraft is flying toilet and the body of the alien is skibidi toilet head.
It is official: I am either dreaming or in a simulation.
I drove on the West Coast from LA to Seattle and back, and it was an eye-opening experience. I got out of my little bubble with the clean streets and friendly neighbors. I do not think we can consider our country a first-world country anymore.
I need a vacation from my vacation. My muscles are so sore.
McDonalds coffee is good coffee. I was surprised.
An Unexpected Journey to the Open Sauce Conference
When I set out on my vacation, my prime agenda was to attend the Open Sauce conference in San Francisco — a hub for YouTuber makers — and spend the rest of the week exploring the city.
My journey began from Orange County, with high hopes for the day ahead. However, about 15 minutes into my drive, I found myself involved in a fender bender. Resolving the situation turned out to be a two-hour delay, involving calls to insurance companies and a necessary detour back home. The mishap left me feeling deflated. Resuming my drive around noon, I found myself caught in the snarl of LA traffic. Eventually, I reached my hotel in San Francisco at 10 pm, weary from the day’s unforeseen incidents.
The following morning, I started my day with a cup of coffee and some complimentary pastries. Soon, I made my way to the Open Sauce conference. It was truly heartwarming to interact with like-minded people, engaging in passionate debates about our favorite text editors, reminiscing about the DOS era programming languages, and discussing unique projects like generating images for trading cards using Stable Diffusion and leveraging AWS credits.
One of the highlights was the fascinating projects showcased. They ranged from Linux consoles connected to dot matrix printers, to typewriter-made MIDI controllers, watercolor-drawing robots, synesthesia pianos, and a glove-knitting machine! It was inspirational to witness such a seamless blend of art and technology, making me yearn to create my own seemingly “useless” yet undeniably cool inventions.
However, the toll of constant social interaction soon caught up with me. As an introvert, I often find such situations draining, and this was no exception. By 2 pm, I felt a profound sense of fatigue. My mind was whirling with a barrage of self-questioning thoughts, creating a state of mental exhaustion. “Did I say anything wrong? Did I offend anyone? Did I ask too many questions?” These relentless doubts began to eclipse the excitement of the day, making it challenging for me to fully immerse myself in the conference.
After a day of interesting projects and intense interaction, I decided to skip the second day of the conference. I would love to watch talks, but the audio quality is not very good.
San Francisco, with its beautiful skyline and the palpable energy of its residents, was a sight to behold. Yet, the city’s charm was marred by the evident homelessness issue, giving me mixed feelings. I admired the city’s dynamism, but the underlying issues painted a picture of a city grappling with its problems. I decided to shift my plans, and booked an AirBnB in Oregon as a pitstop to Seattle.

Avoid variable names with “no” in them. For example: instead of using NODEBUG, just use DEBUG and negate it with the language. The reason is that sometimes you will need to negate the variable, and it will be hard to understand; sometimes it may become quite ridiculous: #ifndef NODEBUG

Ok, it has been a month since I quit coffee. Doctors found I had high blood pressure, and I have long COVID so I decided to quit. I don’t think I ever had any health issues related to the coffee. I had one cup of coffee in the morning and that was it. Last week was really brutal; I think I slept an average of 12 hours a day. Not sure why, whether it was long COVID or lack of coffee, but I need those 5 hours back. It is a lot of hours, and even when I am awake I still feel miserable. I am going to get back to drinking coffee.

It has been 4 months since I got long COVID, and I am still in the denial stage. Quite often I think, what if my mind made it up, and my body is just pretending? I am so tired of not being 100%.
I am standing by my beliefs; you may disagree with me and hate me for that, but I believe that pineapples are great on pizza.
