Command and Conquer

Thesis Topic

thesis.jpgIt’s been weeks after I have conceptualized binary XML as the problem domain for my thesis. I have changed it to XQuery then to Python, and after some deliberation with my adviser, we came back to binary XML.

Here’s the (initial) title of my thesis: Optimized Integration of the Fast Infoset Encoding Format with the JAXB API.

Aguinaldo Highway

The mere mention of Emilio Aguinaldo reminds me of traffic and burnout.

I feel sorry for the General.

Hacking

glider.pngEric Raymond’s “tutorial” on How to Become a Hacker has taught me much more than what it promises. Here’s an excerpt:

Q: I’m having problems with my Windows software. Will you help me?
A: Yes. Go to a DOS promp
t and type “format c:”. Any problems you are experiencing will cease within a few minutes.

    when i left our business park, yan isa sa pinakamalaking thank you ko – na hindi ko na ma-e-experience ang traffic sa aguinaldo highway hehe! same distance lang ang bahay namin sa old and new workplace ko, pero dati yung biyahe ko ay 1.5 hours, ngayon 30 mins na lang :D

  9. Ver Says:

    30 minutes na lang din biyahe ko ngayon. Grabe, ang laking ginhawa talaga pag hindi ka pagod sa biyahe..
