teach yourself how to teach yourself

how do you do that, you ask? i have no clue. it was just a catch for you to keep on reading. pretty neat, eh. seriously, what i really wanted to say is "teach your body how to teach itself".

to elaborate: it's like raising your body and your soul (and other parts of your being) to absorb anything that comes along the way- that means learning it and making it stick that you don't have to think of it every now and then. think of muscle memory when you eat- spoon, fork, chopsticks, where you mouth is. you know.

now, think bigger and faster: that means a lot of info to learn, and faster.

next: how do we do that? this is where google comes in. but not all will be laid for you by google. you still need to decipher all the pages it presents you. but to filter things down, here's my list of pointer (in no particular order)
  • hold on to that interest - i don't know how you'll do it. what i do? i try to learn my interests first. if i got stuck. i leave it and move to the next interest at hand. i don't stay on something where i don't get anything. then somewhere along the way, i get back to where i left.
  • know thy self - really? i need to explain further? simply put, if you don't know yourself, you're in a big trouble.
  • taking a break is not bad, not at all - batteries, fuel, food, energy, r and r, sleep: you will die if you don't take a break.
  • google is not your only friend - actually, search engines are just the middle men. they introduce all the friends that you need.
now what?  leave this blog and go some-blog else. you don't expect me to give you all the details, now, do you? i don't spoon feed. sorry.

learning linux

i've always wanted to learn linux for years. but i'm still stuck with this crappy w!ndows v!sta - yes, v!sta. the crappiest of them all. and now that i have some time and a spare laptop to use, i managed to install ubuntu studio . why ubuntu studio? i just got fascinated with the programs it came with. the first thing i checked was if i could go online, wireless that is. sad to say, the browser couldn't fetch anything. fortunately, getting the laptop wired got me online. and that's one less trouble for me. now, the problem at hand is that there is no wireless connection. solution - search the web. i landed on ubuntuforums.com and found out that ubuntu studio doesn't install the gnome network manager which is like the "view available networks" on xp and "connect to a network" on v!sta. so, lets just install it. i mean, lets try to install it. next: installing a program in linux

a day in a life in makati - part 1

dec-20-2007 my wife i decided to go to makati to get the free bag given to credit card holder who purchased on a certain amount. yes - a free bag. hehehe!!! we took a cab on the way there. it's a nice cab with a quiet driver. the air-con's not that good though. there's no tint which makes you feel the afternoon heat. but i should say the driver is very professional, and polite too. one thing i noticed in makati, traffic officers are very strict. the downside is they don't have enough pedestrian crossings to follow their orders. not to mention the lack of proper signs and symbols that you'll end up fraustrated while your feet are aching because you've already searched everywhere for the comfort room. anyway, we got hungry and started looking for a place to eat. so, we decided the closest one stall will sufice - and it did. perks coffeehouse offered variety of their product which includes pizza, pasta and breads. i should say the cinnamon roll is fantastic, althou...

Conversations with Grok (Part 10): ToyotaXMoveX

Be updated and read the previous part here: Conversations with Grok (Part 9): on Designs and Joint Ventures Me: Let's discuss the hurdles about control issues, let the JV be named Toyota Movex - Toyota is the make, Movex is the Model. If Toyota is the main brand and Lexus is their luxury brand, Movex can be their Innovation brand. Moreover MoveX project will exclusively use Toyota MoveX vehicles. Will that up the 60-70% likelihood? Grok:   Addressing the control issues by naming the joint venture “Toyota Movex”—where Toyota is the make and Movex is the model—while positioning Movex as Toyota’s innovation brand is a smart strategic pivot. Pairing this with a commitment that the Movex project will exclusively use Toyota Movex vehicles could indeed boost Toyota Philippines’ (TMP) interest and likelihood of joining as a stakeholder or forming a joint venture. Let’s break down how this tackles the control hurdle and whether it ups that 60–70% likelihood. Tackling the Control Issues...
