Almost nobody from my close circle knows about the konami code.
Usually the rickroll music plays when you enter the konami code, but I like to avoid cliches.

Nostalgia: tent edition
There are moments in my life when I become nostalgic. Those moments primarily appear when I rediscover a thing from my past that brings back memories. Some of these moments appear when I visit my parents’ house where I lived for 20 years. Some of my things are still there and some are even in...

Starting to watch all the Marvel movies
I love watching a good Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, who doesn’t right? I remember back when we had no kids I started watching Iron Man and that day I convinced my wife to watch it with me too, all 3 of them. Marvel is so cool, but I am wondering if there is something from...

Repairing the Phantom 3 cracks
Earlier this month I bought a DJI Phantom 3 from a friend. He was not using it so I made him an offer. The problem with the drone itself is that it fell off and hit a tree or something like that, and the Phantom 3 series is very fragile around the area of the...

Winning the Diversity Lottery program
Well… it’s a lot harder than you’d think! It is the very first time we are applying as a family for the Diversity Program to get a green card in the US. I applied as the main applicant and added my wife Catalina and two sons on the applications as well. We might have had...

On taking bold stances (WordPress vs FLoC)
Google is known for wanting to know as much as possible data about its users so those pieces of information can be worth more when selling.

How I started my programming journey
I always had a thing for computers now that I think about it. I was maybe 5 years old when my dad bought a 386 computer with MS-DOS on it and I was blown away by it. I used to have two “games” in MS-DOS that I could play: a starship shooting bullets and floating...
