Optimisations are going well. Wake, coffee work.
65 minute break : swim, walk out to fresh market, survey little supermarkets, breakfast of pulses, vegetables, and meat curries, no starch $1.59, go home, assemble a small desk for friend, back to work.
So far so good ... more improvements soon.

It's nice to be back in the inner city after 21.5 years. I complained a lot when I moved away. So far, only NYC reminds me of home. I probably didn't see enough of London, but it didn't seem as lively.

Time optimisation for noobs.
Anything that takes 10 minutes a day is taking 2.5 days per year, or 0.7% of one's annual time. If you sleep 8 hours a day, it's taking a whole 1% of your waking life.
If you invest in systems that remove 10 minute per day leaks, once a month, you've extended your usable lifespan by 2+% in a year. And if you somehow manage to OCD the 10 minute shit out of your life on a weekly basis, then you become nominally 33% more effective at using your available time every year.
Why do you sleep?

haha. well, it's like those of us who make fun of international schooled kids and their parents ... the cost of parenting matches the incompetence of the parent ...

WTF, the etymological root of "satin" is "zaitun".

There are two kinds of people ...
... one kind is committed to making "fuck you" money
... another is committed to never letting money get in the way of "fuck you"s
The girls I tend to fall in love with are the first, and I am the second, so we haven't permanently matched yet. 🙃

Malaysian mobile Internet in 2022 is worse than it was in 2008, because they turned off 3G, 4G is spotty, and 2G-fallback can't support current demands, and exhibits cascade failure. So essentially we regressed. This is all on MOF, DNB, MCMC, and their political mastery of 5G. What is new?

Geolocation secure. Now i need to catch up on sleep, as that's the main issue with my actions-per-minutes and short-term memory these days. Literally forgot to take my cash from the ATM the other day. More work.

Malaysians eat too much cooking fucking oil anyway. Too much sugar. Too much rice. Kill all the subsidies already. Eat real food, mostly plants, not too much.

Bangsar : we'd like a nursery, with some goats please
DBKL : a nursery, for plants?
Bangsar : plants are people too; and goats
DBKL : no goat
Bangsar : if it's made from vegetables, it's a vegetable
DBKL : ...

Help. Who borrowed my dish rack?

My brain is fried. Good company is hard to find. Lol. On with work.
In six months, the decade will be over, and then I should figure out what to do next.

Engine built, time to run it. The mechanics of space. And time.

Anyone using YES-5G who can rent me their device for an hour's signal test?

Is there any major brand courier in Malaysia, where they reliably take the package back to the depot instead of dumping it, if it is not received by hand at the destination?
8JUL
Is there a Malaysia supplier and service coverage for Anova Precision Oven? Or we just order from global?

Spalla camicia : KL tailors - send me your list
(lol : I'm sure it's non-zero, but some tailors have the gall to say zero exist here)

So Amy and Alex (very loud social media swingers) have gone viral because of a live performance. I can't wait for Kelantan to vet their Instagram captions.
Malaysians are generally emotional and trigger-happy. I have always expected to die here, either like Shinzo Abe, or in a jail-cell of some kind. Lol

Only history will show whether Amy has succeeded in advancing Malaysian conversations in a lasting way - or if she will be wiped out quickly by the authorities. In a country where even non-Muslims are harassed by Muslims, Muslims under Islamic law have fewer freedoms still.

Was just reminded that NRICs are coded for economic class also.

Started reading up on the Xinhai Revolution around 1911, as my dad attributes our family's scientific orientation to the cultural trends of post-imperial China. Reading about US influence across the years is interesting - as much as the Chinese are skeptical of the US, the revolutionaries were raising capital from abroad in order to get rid of the emperor in the first place. SYS's brother sold a ranch in Hawaii, yadda yadda.
