returning to the scene of the crime

it's been a while since i created a web page. and now im like a returning prodigal son aiming to get back what i lost. getting thru the same process i walked thru back then - studying. i visited few sites ive created and found them to be boring so i wont put their links here. hahaha! then i stumble upon my site(i want to call it that) - http://www.geocities.com/orpheum_ph/ and remembered that i have created something for myself... a tool for web design. something to start with... and i would like to tap my back for that. and so, i decided to get back into blogging and pst this.

hopefully, i would complete my tool and maybe start on a portfolio. wish me luck!

envelope budgeting

i've always had a hard time saving up for the rainy days. i'm always stuck in the part where i have no idea where the money is going to. and believe me, i hate that part. so i scoured the net to look for ways how to solve this eff-ing problem and googled(i wonder if this verb is already an entry in the dictionary) budgeting . then i thought, why don't i just check its wikipedia entry . unfortunately, all information inside that entry were on a macro-scale of the word itself. and fortunately, except the "see also" part. there lies the phrase envelope system . although there's just a small info about it, the description how the system works gives enough overview on how it works basically: enough to make me save. "Typically, the person will write the name and average cost per month of a bill on the front of an envelope. Then, either once a month or when the person gets paid, he or she will put the amount for that bill in cash on the envelope. When the bi...

Contextual Stratification, Basilides, and the Shape of an Accurate Religion

Contextual Stratification quietly intersects with an unlikely figure: Basilides, the 2nd-century Gnostic often dismissed as obscure or overly metaphysical. Strip away the mythic language, and what remains is a sharp structural insight: reality is layered, and most human error comes from collapsing those layers into one. Basilides’ most radical idea was the Unknowable God—not a supreme ruler issuing commands, but a source beyond being, intention, or description. This god does nothing, says nothing, demands nothing. That sounds paradoxical until viewed through Contextual Stratification. Structurally, the Unknowable God maps cleanly onto the apex stratum: the highest layer that is necessary for grounding reality yet irrelevant for operation within it. Irrelevant here does not mean useless. It means non-operational. The apex stratum cannot be invoked to explain events, justify rules, or resolve disputes. It exists to mark a boundary—the point beyond which explanation, morality, and causati...

Using AI to Reinvent My Résumé and Try to Land an Interview

Creating a résumé is a tedious job to most. It's hard, time consuming and might even be the cause for rejection-if you don't know what you're doing. Fortunately, there are AI tools out there that created to assist, us humans, in generating résumé. It save's time, effort and you get higher chance of being hired.  But what if you're transitioning to an entirely different role? You don't have experience, no educational background to back it up. and no portfolio to show. What do you do? You come up with something creative. You come up with some that has never been done before. And, just wow them... or at least try. I was messaged in LinkedIn for a position that I was eyeing for in years. The HR guy reached out and we scheduled a call interview. We talked for more than half an hour and I was enlightened that my résumé is lack-luster. I was highly considered but the résumé is not at par because I have no job experience on AI, the certifications we're not included,...
