Happiness Is

I'm happy when clients are happy. Clients seem rather happy today. Not really my fault. Let's hope they're still happy on Monday.

(This month's mileage claim is ridiculous. Occasional road-rage from others remains annoying. Perhaps I am a horrible driver.)

Never thought I'd be hawking shares in a $ holdings company... but the opportunity came my way. So let's kick it as far as it goes. :P So an aunty asked me to manage RM1k for her. I ain't incorporating an investment holdings company, just for that! But if more people want in, sure!

And I've decided that I should include a picture in most of my posts, just to make this blog slightly more entertaining to casual surfers. Maybe.

Ok - enough corporate distractions for the day. Back to coding for wisdom.

I guess it's fair to say that I have inherited a fairly religious approach to life. My religion is technology. You buy and sell. I do.

Starting to put cookies into Hell.

Negative thinking: well, having achieved self satisfaction many years ago... negative thinking is the only thing that motivates me to get things done these days :P

Brinkmanship: this pretty much sums up my approach to life.

Tripped Into Love?

Some people fall into relationships. Others build the relationships that the first bunch fall into :P

Capital structures... hmm

Cepat bubar lah... gatal nak orang diam mengenai pasal undi ni...

First rights of refusal, authorised capital, capital paid-in-cash, capital paid-in-kind, poison pills, SPVs, wtf... lol.

I'm the numbers guy. If it moves, I count it.

toffs, off to waste lofty coffee with tones of toffee

Bed time. Tired.

End'o'March

Wrapped up a project. Snoozed. A few minutes of social affirmation. Time to get back to studies!

0130 hours: InHouse 24-7 bandar mahkota cheras. Kids everywhere.

One constantly seeks the longest possible line of sight. Peripheral vision easily catches what is nearer. #security

Tired. Lots to think about. Mind not emptying fast enough. Also reregistering car tomorrow. Taking a break from tinkering with the engines. Reading up on theory. Reading up on Existential Types in Haskell. So much language abuse.

One attempts to minimise the duration of exposure to a morphological representation of a complex idea, so that the brain may think more of the idea's semantics instead.

Minimising exposure to the morphological representation of a complex idea, instead, lets the brain dwell more of the idea's semantics.

Today's little epiphany: 'syntax,' is the physical limitation placed (conferred) upon 'morphemes,' by the 'semantics,' of a language. The reason we say this is the case: language initially results from a structure of thought, and not vice versa.

The next day:

Slow day at the insurers and JPJ. Done with automotive trivia. Back to studies. Observe when people express annoyance - it tells you when they are vulnerable. This is the study of human temperament.

Trying to have a balance of microscopic and macroscopic targets.

Beurre fondue trickery...

Off to Bangsar to write a play. Because the best place to write a play in two days is in Bangsar lah... jom!
First time I've bootstrapped a (STAGE) script in Excel...

Detour! Fuck, I hate getting lost in Cheras. With really slow GPS.

A stimulating supper chat! As much as I would like to stay up and write more code, I have a JV to discuss in the morning. Zzz...
