Short notes, mainly with photos, quick thoughts, links, and small updates from my day-to-day.

Thought

When I created this account, I thought of building a new bubble, from scratch; perhaps too focused on the technical aspects of my daily work (, , etc... a mistake).

It hasn't quite captured my interest, and I miss "other topics". Lately, I've also been logging into , but as of today, I can't stand the ads.

Perhaps it's worth one last attempt to change the bubble but I suppose I've lost the 'engagement' with both platforms.

Thought

As you go out for a walk to stretch your legs, one of your kids asks you to kick the ball around, and you end up playing a pickup game with all the neighbourhood kids.

If I don't answer tomorrow, just say I was a good person!

Thought

For various reasons, I had to return to work in my old place for a while, and I can hardly put into words the flood of memories that came rushing back. Though they're just physical spaces, the mind's power to assimilate is truly astonishing.

Thought

Here's a coding twist for you: my goddaughter, who's learning to speak, affectionately calls me 'None'. I'm just glad she didn't go with 'NaN'. 😄

Thought

For a time, I made an effort to stay connected with people I believed were valuable, only to discover that my efforts often went unreturned. This experience led me to become more introspective and guarded, but it also helped me recognize those who truly matter. Many people seemed to be absorbed in their own problems and rarely taking a moment to inquire about the well-being of the others.

It's a reminder, happiness often lies in the quality of connections rather than the quantity.

Thought

I'll never cease to be amazed by the power of Django's ORM. 🚀

Thought

Friendly reminder: we often overcomplicate our work and forget to appreciate life's simple pleasures. No fancy setup or powerful computers are needed to get the job done. Sometimes, less really is more.

Thought

I miss so much something like a for debugging when you're running the code inside a container.

I mean it's so easy to add a `pdb.set_trace()` and attach to that container waiting for the stop and just start the debug.

I don't know how to do the same without depending on some other external tools like and a dozen of plugins for .

Drawbacks of a compiled language, I guess

Thought

Though it's not the most ideal tool with its limitations and dependencies (like VPN, data connections, remote services, etc...) but it's just so convenient that it annoys me.

From my pov, the touchscreen, the supreme keyboard, and that 'open-and-go' feeling are incomparable to any other portable machine.
