The Linking To My Other Blog Didn't Work, So This Here Is The Result

Countdown to Failure

Wed, 07 Nov 2012 08:33:00 +0000

These past days:
I was confident that I have finished all my tasks, so I spent some time learning about new stuff. Everything is alright in the universe.

Monday:
The person where I get the requirements for is on leave. No worries. I finished everything that needs finishing days ago.

Tuesday:
Whaaat? I see an email where there are new...

Are you the Librarian?

Mon, 05 Nov 2012 03:12:00 +0000

I've always marveled at the experts posting stuff about libraries on help sites. "You use this module's method to do this, and etc etc" + = awed reader. I wonder, does this come from experience, from learning the library's documentation, both, Google, or just plain intuition?

I'm ramping up my...

"Here's a Crutch, We're Crippling You."

Have you ever been in a working environment where you can't use everything you think will be good for your disposal? It definitely hurts right?

Simple, free programs that will give you additional time to worry on something more important that doing grunt work, but you're being forbidden to use them.

What is this? Why is this happening?...

Slowly Paying Off

Thu, 25 Oct 2012 00:42:00 +0000

One of my previous posts is about my setting up of a Wordpress account, and slowly, I'm seeing good things unfold slowly but surely. I hooked up my Twitter account to my programming and etc blogs, and now I have a follower! I just have to keep up writing new content everyday, and I'll surely build my empire. Haha. Well, fools can...

Sublime

Mon, 22 Oct 2012 09:03:00 +0000

I've been using Sublime Text for a week now and I'm seriously thinking of buying a personal license. What I like about it:

- Very simple user interface, not like Notepad++ spartan look.
- When I'm coding in Python, I use the Python cmd so for longer code I use a text editor and paste it in the cmd. Before, using Notepad++ I get...

All or Nothing in December

Fri, 19 Oct 2012 02:21:00 +0000

This December, I'm planning to buy a computer or a laptop. My budget is pretty low, if it exists, and I want to buy something for development. I need to buy one so that when I go home I can do my own projects and increase my learning by a considerable amount. This is all for anticipation of something. (Guess?)

Right now, I'm planning to...

On Writing

Tue, 16 Oct 2012 02:53:00 +0000

It was sometime earlier I thought of writing stuff on blogs everyday. Just one post per day. What is the purpose of this? Well, I could think of a couple of reasons:

1. Keep my interest in writing alive.
2. Create a good online presence.
3. Looks like a diary. I always laugh when I see the juvenile stuff I wrote back in high school and...

Java Lied

Mon, 08 Oct 2012 01:51:00 +0000

I'm currently on "Providing Constructors for Your Classes" under "Classes and Objects in the Java Tutorials, and so far I've learned quite a few new stuff that I didn't know before. You might be tempted and say "I know this topic, so I'll skip this one." but don't do that! You might find out...

I Give Up

Thu, 04 Oct 2012 07:34:00 +0000

Earlier I decided to review my PLSQL skills because I need to transfer copious amounts of data from the database to SQL scripts. This could be done with executing a query in SQLDeveloper, then choosing all results then picking export as inserts. The problem is this task is too tedious. Create and execute query, select all data, export as inserts,...

Java eBooks

Mon, 01 Oct 2012 06:51:00 +0000

Well, I just noticed that Oracle provides ebooks in ePub and mobi format for all their tutorials as seen on the Java website. If you have a device that supports reading of these formats, then this is good news. ^^
