three for the road

hmmm...pano sisimulan? kailangan ko ihatid ang mga piyesa ng boxtype sa shop para masimulan na ang paggawa. nasakin yung "fender" pero yung "bumper" nasa dasma pa. next time na lang sana yung bumper pero naisip rin namin na kailangan ding asikasuhin yung "deed of sale" ng mirage. pati na rin yung kulang dun. kaya dumiretso kami dun ng tanghali kaso tumagal kami ng kinahapunan na. konting usap usap bago tumuloy ng indang...dumaan kami ng pala-pala. dun ko lang talaga naramdaman ang mga kalampag ng mirage. kaya habang nasa daan nagdesisyon na ko na kailangan ng ipalatero pagkalabas ng lancer.

nakita ko na yung ginawa sa lancer. panalo. di palang napipinturahan pero dahil sa nakita ko yung ginawang pag-buff ni mang bubot sa box ni dominic e napapangiti na lang ako..
pagkatapos sa indang, umakyat kami ng alfonso. bibisita sana sa lola ni misis kaso dahil gabi na ay hindi na rin kami tumuloy. habang papunta sa alfonso napadaan kami sa isang liblib na lugar. hindi naman kami bumalik sa pala-pala para mag-tagaytay na syang pinagsisisihan ko. sana dun na lang kami dumaan kahit malayo. grabe yung daan dun. sginagawa kasi. pero sobrang haba nung isang baku-bakong daan dun na sasayad ang pang ilalim mo. bigla ko tuloy naalala si BM(lancer) panigurado hindi nya sasantuhin yun. pero buti na lang nakayanan ni coda(mirage) yun. pagkatapos nun sinabi ko sa sarili ko hindi na dadaan dun kailan man. siguro abang ako ng 5 taon. baka gawa na yung kalsada dun. hahaha!

dinaanan na lang namin yung alfonso papuntang tagaytay at di man lang namalayan na lumagpas na pala kami sa bahay ni lola. pagdating sa tagaytay nakita rin namin yung bagong "supermarket" ng robinson's. medyo maliit lang yung tindahan pero malinis, maayos at kung ano man ang makikita mo sa bagong gawang gusali. meron din katabing "shakey's" at iba-ibang negosyo. mayroon ding "stall's". bilihan ng halaman, katutubong gamit, kakanin, baro't saya, at iba pa. pagkatapos mag-ikot-ikot kumain muna kami sa "shakey's". pareho din ng sa sta rosa kaso sobrang dami ng kumakain na nakalimutan ng "waitress" yung inorder naming "mushroom soup" na kailangan pang ipaalala. pagkatapos ay dumiretso na kami sa "grocery" dahil malalim na ang gabi.. di rin namin namalayan halos alas-9 na ng gabi ng dumatin kami sa bahay...hay! kapagod, pero masaya.

kuha sa shakey's

Conversations with Grok (Part 2): Come To Think of It

Be updated and read the previous part here:  Conversations with Grok (Part 1): Introducing Agile Transportation System Me: Since I'm from Manila Philippines, which I'm guessing you already know, starting it in BGC to prove effectiveness and partnering with companies like telecoms(smart and globe) for internet, google for tech and cloud, digital payments(gcash and maya) for fare, the BGC administrator for location and other companies may seem effective Grok : You’re absolutely right—starting a routeless, agile transportation system in Bonifacio Global City (BGC) in Manila, Philippines, and partnering with heavy hitters like Smart, Globe, Google, GCash, Maya, and the BGC administrator could be a slam dunk for proving effectiveness. BGC’s a perfect testing ground: it’s compact, modern, tech-savvy, and already a hub for innovation. Let’s unpack how this could play out and why it might work. Why BGC Works BGC’s got a lot going for it. It’s a planned urban district with a dense mix o...

Wrestling with an Old Acer Laptop to Install ALBERT—And Winning!

You know that feeling when you take an old, battle-worn laptop and make it do something it was never meant to handle? That’s exactly what we did when we decided to install ALBERT (A Lite BERT) on an aging Acer laptop. If you’ve ever tried deep learning on old hardware, you’ll understand why this was part engineering challenge, part act of stubborn defiance. The Challenge: ALBERT on a Senior Citizen of a Laptop The laptop in question? A dusty old Acer machine (N3450 2.2 GHz, 4gb ram), still running strong (well, kind of) but never meant to handle modern AI workloads. The mission? Get PyTorch, Transformers, and ALBERT running on it—without CUDA, because, let’s be real, this laptop’s GPU is more suited for Minesweeper than machine learning. Step 1: Clearing Space (Because 92% Disk Usage Ain’t It) First order of business: making room. A quick df -h confirmed what we feared—only a few gigabytes of storage left. Old logs, forgotten downloads, and unnecessary packages were sent to digita...
