Reading the title and that the speaker used to work in Motorola, catches my interest to view the recording. The presentation was okay, and the presenter he knows his stuff, especially since he was involved since before I was born, but in the end I don’t really quite get what he wants, or I don’t…
I went to a training recently where the trainer said don’t leave yet because he has a certificate for us. I was a bit surprised because it was a free course done by volunteers, which won’t normally hand out certificates. Normally it’s the one done by big companies where they charge you big money, that…
I read a newsletter where it was rumoured/assumed that people were faking AI. How weird, and it turned out that wasn’t true. Now if people were using AI to fake things up, that is quite common nowadays. Videos or audios of people, especially famous ones, can be easily created. But there’s almost always a slight…
When I was in school, I believed that there can be intelligence without the ability to explain, but nowadays I think that although that can still be true, the ability to explain is a greater sign of intelligence. Because sometimes you think you’ve understood it in your mind but when you try to explain it…
Or rather the absence of logic! Coincidental to OpenAI having problems with ChatGPT today, this morning I stumbled upon this funny reply from ChatGPT. It began with me finding an old planner that I have not used, from 2022. Not wanting to waste it, I thought it would be useful if the dates still match…
Sometimes, some days, you feel a bit slow or unmotivated to do things. Some days, some people are very opposed to an instruction, that they question everything. Both of these situations are the extremes, and are different aspects of approaching things, but both do not get the job done. I think it is important to…
I heard the sad news of my secondary school teacher who passed away yesterday, on Friday, while doing Haj in Makkah. In Islam, that is a sign of a good ending and although no one knows the predicament that a person will face in the next life, i.e. barzakh, that is a good ending as…
I am rearranging some furniture around the house to accommodate some work arrangements and all these are starting to annoy me. I just want a place to do some extra work, and the challenge of finding an arrangement that – works for me, works for the family, is suitable for both summer and winter, and…
My daughter has a few close friends from school, whom she calls BFFs, and they share similar interests like artsy stuff, reading books and something else which I don’t pretend I know. But sometimes she does relate about how her friends do this or that differently compared to her doing it, so despite their similarities,…
My wife and I visited a group of friends recently and we inadvertently talked about future and retirement. One point of interest was that in Malaysia, people are normally forced out of work and into retirement, while in the UK, quite a lot of people, especially knowledge workers, continue to work past their 60s. This…
