Ohh… I hate debugging nginx configuration so much!

Finished reading Metal by Tutorials (Third Edition): Beginning Game Engine Development With Metal by Caroline Begbie 📚took a lot of efforts. But this is by far the best book on Metal and a must read for anyone getting into Metal. I recommend buy this book outright instead of subscribe to Kodeco.

Last year when I cycled up and down UCSC’s steep hill, I listened to SteveSi’s substack. It was an amazing account of PC Revolution by a truly great technologist at MS. I only listened to second half, so I’v been waiting for this to come out — it does not disappoint — Hardcore Software.

My high school Econ teacher used Charles W.’s Naked Economic as a textbook, I found it’s good at providing context to concepts and ideas. So when I found my stats needed refresh, I picked up Naked Statistics. It’s also great, but turned out to be a bit shallow for my purpose. Recommend as a supplement.

My intuition has been that linear algebra matters more than calculus in CS — matrices is key for graphics, ML, and data science. Support vector machines gave me second thoughts, since you can’t understand the radial kernel without first grasping the Taylor series and the essence of infinity.

A few years ago, a friend of my host family gifted me a book for my birthday. At the time, I didn’t fully appreciate it. However, as I later developed a habit of reading, I always regretted not reading/appreciate it. I thought the book was lost… But look what I just found!!!

@renevanbelzen Oh no… now I want to have an analog computer!

In the last week, I have both my email and blog goes down. The pain of self-hosting…

I am a little ashamed to say this… But I am obsessed with this thing. Just love it!

@val I was sitting down so I did talked to them. Fortunately it was made with coffee grounds. We had some good laugh.

LOL You can’t just wrap a little piece of SOAP in plastic and label it with “the most delicious” and hand it as complimentary gift for ordering coffee.

On an unrelated note if I die tonight please tell police it has to do with soap.

Let’s hope adding ISR would resolve my issue.

Hmm, having some strange issue with SvelteKit prerendering…

For the record I am still running 6k almost everyday, I am just having hard time documenting it.

Journal #13 —— Yesterday was the first day this year I can’t go out jogging. It’s startling even one day break can make next day’s exercise so much more painful.

🏃🚴 Journal #12 —— Dealing with some anxiety right now. But I think it helps to think my primary goal this year is run more. And that’s exactly what I am doing for more than half a month.

🏃🚴 Journal #11 —— I might have over done it yesterday, the muscle sore came back. But I am still perform better than I started though.

🏃🚴 Journal #10 —— Got the fastest 5K today. I just found out my running location is actually quite popular near nightfall. There are always people strolling but I only saw people running today, and quite a few.

🏃🚴 Journal #9 —— Today was really fun. Was on a long call with a friend while a run again. I should probably picking up my pace but felling lazy for couple days.

🏃🚴 Journal #7 —— My exercise is now entirely centered around running. At this moment I felt like it’s most effective way. I still enjoy cycling but 6 km a day already takes a good chunk of my time at this pace. I really do feel like my legs have adjusted to running again.

🏃🚴 Journal #7 —— Forgot to write a Journal yesterday. My legs are feeling it after training at this intensity. These couple days, muscle so sore that I couldn’t walk properly after sitting for a while. My plan right now is not to have a rest day. I want avg train 6/7 days a week even I get busy.

🏃🚴 Journal #6 —— I paid extra attention to slow my pace way down today. Kept my heart rate below 174 bpm. And I went way longer as a result; able to jog 6km continuously now. The first 3km is still painful. But eventually the soreness died down and I starts feeling great again.

🏃🚴 Journal #4 —— Today’s exercise was brutal. Really felt like my feet are gonna explode. Heart rate peaked at 200 bpm. But I really didi feel like I was in the space for the second half. Anyway to tired to write more.

🏃🚴 Journal #4 —— Exercised for about 2 hours today. Also jogged for about 15 minutes in between cycling. Got say running feels so much more painful than cycling. Towards the end muscle feels like they lost all strength, but they probably could last much longer if i continued.

Books offer insights; not wisdom.

“Mere mortals.”

🚴 Journal #3 —— Yesterday, I forgot to write anything. I was talking with a friend on phone while riding the whole time. Today, really pushed myself and try sustaining a higher output. Tiresome but feeling great at same time. Still feeling a lot of energy left after the workout.
