so, ive been wanting to write down for a while but idk nothing much has been happening really, after all school's over, im not on vacation yet, i quit my job, what is there really to happen?

but no point in just skipping writing till something happens so here goes,

ive started building a small product, really small tbh, but im kinda proud that i finally got myself to get an idea, and get it close to the finish line :) coming soon™️ btw friend circle has been kinda dead lol many are changing school's many have been separated so nothings gonna happen until next year starts ig and am really looking forward to it lol have a bunch of things i wanna do(soul dont overthink it pls)

im also working on rift with soul and milind and thats kinda fun, but i kinda finished all the ui parts early, so am kinda idle right now :( perhaps ill start work on the backend with milind

ive started reading physical books again too, and even completed 1! both are murder mysteries atm, christie never disappoints lol... ive been reading more online too, articles and essays, etc.

on the writing part tho, not much has happened, im yet to figure out what to write about, aaaah why is it so hard to write...

also, my messy internet life and bookmarks have been somewhat organized thanks to rauno's launch bmrks.com - its really beautiful and well thought out bookmark manager... i love the simplicity

heres a couple of stuff i bookmarked the last few days:

and some portfolios:

anyways thats all i had to get out, maybe the next one will have a launch in it or maybe not, who knows ¯_(ツ)_/¯

about to go off, but had certain insights

ill try to as much as possible going forward, talking about long form content, and not neccessarilly pubilc also will try to note everything on the journey

maths and logic can be so fun when coding but also so boring, why is it like this gosh

2023-11-02

a thought just popped into my head: why is curated content so good? why does it make me think 10x more than content in general?

2023-09-25

i want to keep reading... finally got in touch with it and its just so beautiful...

gives u so much imagination power. so many thoughts.

absolutely love it... also gonna consume more good content online(thnx soul)

ok fk it...

gonna be trying a weekly note system from this month or maybe after exams... made a template with obsidian, templater, and dataview... doesn't seem like a bad idea to track and reflect upon each week...

actually studied a lot of stuff during the study leave and didnt waste it all... maintained a balance b/w work, coding, and studies...

like i mentioned in the earlier drop, built a small web app for myself... where i can give it a json of questions and options with correct option tagged... and an optional config... the site loads the json and displays the questions with absolutely 0 styling... just white text on a black bg... i can go through and answer the questions and finally if i end it or time runs out... gives me the results, that is correct, incorrect, unattempted, time taken, etc. thinking of adding a few more types of questions like single word answers, etc. also wondering if others would benefit from this? maybe there are more students like this who need this? well anyways gonna be making it public lol... and open source(maybe)... lots to consider tho...

had a bigger idea of integrating ai to match and grade long form answers as well... but thats for later... gonna build this basic unstyled mvp first... built the current mvp in 2 hours btw 👍pretty nice progress on idea -> execution

thats pretty much it for this week... cyall inbetween exams or after its done....

the more i find and learn about pkm and use it... the more interesting and better it gets...

2023-07-16

this weeks been a roller coaster of events and emotions damn

school was v fun this week lol. kinda made a very tiny bit of progress towards my relationship 👀 tbh i shouldnt even say this here 😂 also:

  • started improving obsidian knowledge base
  • got an idea and thinking if itll be good or no
  • pkm is really interesting and cool, digging deeper
  • have a few things i wanna do and add to my site
  • wrote a few small essays(mostly personal lol)

kinda messed up at endeva and J got mad 💀... then tried to fix it and made a progress on my tasks... and studied properly and understood the stuff after a long time(physics is fun at times)

today talked to J and am going to change my style of coding to ship quality code fast instead of half broken sht faster as we are moving into a phase which involves users...

endeva has taught me so much... both technically and otherwise v grateful to soul, J, and kumar 🫡

thoughts:

  • devoting some time to personal projects is important
  • need to coordinate sleep and focus

yeah this def works, got my geo project done in around ~1.5hrs. i need to be in this ideal focus state at all times

what i noticed works for me is:

  • subtle music, too loud kinda breaks the flow
  • distraction free environment(both irl as well as online) as in no notifs/ no bg apps, etc.. no bg apps help as they reduce pc resource usage thus whatever im focusing on works smoother
  • breaks - time and again, they kinda help in refreshing my mind and i can start thinking fresh again... altho long breaks dont work, small-mid sized breaks is what works for me
  • ig breaks every 40-50mins worked best for me

oh btw was writing outline for an essay on family and its importance for school, and thought of this line:

Family gives us a shoulder to cry on

based on

We all need a shoulder to cry on ...

i like this for microblogging but need something proper and private to document myself and link stuff

i thought quartz with obsidian would work but doesn't

i need something very personalized. i'd make something myself but well now im too busy with school and endeva. then again i want to build it in a newspaper form which seems odd

ig time will show what happens, and i still dont have an idea reeeeee

It’s helpful to understand the difference between a premium product and a luxury product. iPhone is premium, Gucci bag is luxury. Or to stay in the same industries: Porsche (premium), and Ferrari (luxury). Omega (premium), and Patek (luxury). It’s stark how different of a business strategy these are. And it’s by no means just price of product.
