Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Could be a series of villain criminal superhero vampire romance stories.

I really had to think hard and I guess I seldom use it. I touch-type but somehow my body has learnt to use only the left hand for almost all the modifier keys no matter how many keys I have to press there. It’s actually a good idea that I only realise now that I should map that right shift for something else.

All the lingo and acronyms.

I tried their email out for some time and was contemplating fully switching over. But somewhat in their email has always felt broken to me. Some days it was the text editor. Other days it was the reader and account thumbnails. Their support was responsive but their engineering really gave the feeling that they didn’t care in the past few months.

I guess that’s why. I just wish something in tech isn’t just working towards an MVP and then once it is out or sold, goodbye.

Alternative to Google, they said. It didn’t seem so alternative by its way of hitting the graveyard.

I actually prefer it that way. With tabbed Ribbons (Is it how they’re called?), I constantly have to look over and over again which tab the thing I need is located, ending up in question why X is put here but not there.

The tool is for budgeting so I would say use what is readable for you. Using IBAN for payee sounds like an overkill. You can still manage your payees and merge them later differently.

I despise the fact that most Android phones start with a 6-inch screen. I was resolute to switch to an iPhone mini next time when I’ll change phones but then they also killed that product line. 🫠

I really miss the time I can do everything with one hand using only one thumb.

Make ceramics. It’s really meditative. Time passes so quickly as I focus on the spinning clay on the wheel.

There were subjects which I hated, either because I found them boring, the teachers were not inviting, or I just needed sleep. For instance, chemistry and national history are examples of them.

Many years later, I found myself in situations where I started to develop curiosity around those subjects, where I would wish to have properly learnt or attended those topics again.

1. Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
2. Working software over comprehensive documentation
3. Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
4. Responding to change over following a plan

1, 2 and 4 all together sounds like a recipe for incessant alignment meetings. Especially in organisations where teams are not stable, where people come and go or have multiple projects to take care of. It is just a loss of knowledge and everyone has something different in their minds.

Where are you from?

Then being fixated to all the stereotypes or news stories the person may have in their head while they barely know who I am.

I just tried it out. Good that it allows you to collapse it.

I enjoyed using Hangouts. I still do. But the plethora of communication apps Google makes always give me chills that the judgement day is just round the corner. And by the time it arrives, it will just end up as another name on the list without much resort.
