not sure if I already blogged once. just think they deserved mentioning for disappearing quietly: Michael Duggan and Dan Khasis. Failure of a company is not that bad compared with disgraceful disappearance from the public eyes

An organization that treats its programmers as morons will soon have programmers that are willing and able to act like morons only.

Introducing Protolize

introduction

Finding The Juice

Everyone has their own resources and tools they use in their daily
life as a web designer + developer. I too as a web designer, have found
many resources and useful tools that I find really essential when it
comes to creating a website. And we all try to find the most useful,
easy to use, and overall more efficient tools that we can use in our
projects. So I’ve decided to create this small place where we can all
share the resources and the most juicy tools out there that we can use
to raise our productivity.

Share Your Tools

You are always welcome to share your tools. If you find any ones
that should be on the list but are not on this list yet, just email me
and let me know so I can include them on the list.

By knowing what tools are available and which ones are the best we
can all be productive designers and developers. Let’s help each other.

failed services

Posted in Uncategorized tagged , , , at 10:24 am by zhouji

Among the online (storage) services I recently (how recent is recently?) used, two quietly disappeared. Omnidrive and photodrop.com. They’re just gone without a noise. Omnidrive seems worse than a business failure – it turned to be a disastrous personal failure, at least a personal reputation failure.

Surprisingly, another seemingly weak service, openomy, is still up and running after at least three years. Great job, openomy!

abstract

Posted in Uncategorized at 12:59 am by zhouji

abstract is a concept or relationship that applies to more than one specific type of subjects.

for example, 1+1=2 is an abtract. It applies to 1 apple+1 apple = 2 apples the same way it applies to 1 car+1 care = 2 cars. Abstract then can be at different levels, though. For example, algebra is a higher level abstract compared with arithmatics. In a+a=2a, a can be 1, 2, or -1, etc. I believe that human’s intelligence must be limited to certain level of abstract. Beyond that, the abtract still exist, but we as human won’t see it. those things take so-called ‘faith’ to apprehend.

what is ‘learning’?

Posted in Uncategorized at 11:55 pm by zhouji

obtaining functionality from experience instead borned with or pre-programmed. this applies to human, animals, machines – or as a matter of fact, any ‘things’, say, plants. though this question is oftened asked in the context of machine learning
