I have not written any post recently (4 months since my breakup post). I want to use this article to discuss some of the ideas i have about “work”, and by work i mean professional work. I won’t be citing anything (at least for now since i’m using this post to get away from working so yeah), so take everything here with a hugge grain of salt. Corona has changed a lot and many of big software companies have moved to a permanent remote work setup. That actually makes sense as software can be done remotely and for that we have really built awesome infrastrucutre supporting this: from email, to Slack and Zoom. Everything we do in software is inherently remote-friendly. ...

Relationships are hard to maintain. It touches very deep parts inside you, it makes you more insecure and usually more dumber. Relationships are hard. It is extremely rare in nature to have two independently actors to align and to keep on that. It is often each partner in a different stage in the relationship than the other. The expectations change and so are the responsibilities. We are human and it is imperative we are insecure and subject to external factor. I have been telling my friends I cannot even plan for tomorrow’s dinner let alone my life goals. It is just too hard to get it right. And i settled from the easiest path; I didn’t plan for anything, nor did i commit. Relationships are not for everyone. ...

This article is intended to be rather short ™. I will discuss my latest tool [https://github.com/adonese/ebs-live](ebs live dashboard api consumer). As the name suggests, this tool simply converts EBS’s website into an API. Pretty simple right. the problem we have an html document we want to parse it to extract some text, v We can use Go’s excellent x/net/html library to parse the html. html package provides the following: proper utf-8 encoding html body node traversing (e.g., it does exactly what your browser do with manipulating and accessing the DOM) The code for this part is really simple so, i won’t go into it at all. ...

This will be a rather short post on Corona Virus you can read more on Wikipedia. My take on corona is from a slightly different perspective, an econmoical one. I’m neither a physician nor an economist, so take everything you read here with a huge grain of salt. You can help yourself and the community a lot by following public health regulations. Cleaning your hands with soap and self isolation can be very helpful in reducing the number of Corona cases and avoid excessively overwhelming the health system. ...

stereotyping is bad I do computer programs. i have a long hair, and it is quite usually messy. i fit quite well into the typical computer guy geeks. I have seen many people making that note: hey you look like a geek! Working on so

The gem of this post is that entrepreneurship is not exactly what it sounds, and there is nothing inherently bad about employment. The effort it takes to build a successful startup is far more great than “just being an employee”. Startups are not actually for everyone, and that doesn’t make them any better than well established companies. ...

You are too technical This week was a little bit fun for me. I had this incident where one of our clients has had a meeting with us and in the process he made joke about my technical skills–as in they the business owners use us the coders to do their stuff. It was indeed a bad joke, but it led me into writing this post. I wanted to share with you how extremely excited I am of being a programmer and the myth behind “technical term”. ...
