How to fix firefox memory leak and slowness on the Mac
As a developer, I run Firefox all day long. Then I began to notice that Firefox would get progressively slower, to the point where it wouldn’t want to move anymore. So here is how you can diagnose and fix the problem to make Firefox faster: 1) open “Activity Monitor” 2) Notice how on mine Firefox [...]
My Solution to the Homeless Problem (sorta)
Move over Gavin Newsome. Suck it Mayor Bloomberg. I have solved the homeless problem. No this is not some fancy scheme that involves communes and co-ops or other hippy ideas, and no, we are not going to call in the Orkin man and have them exterminated as much as Vinhboy would advocate for that. In [...]
I am afriad of blogging
Does anyone ever feel that what they write in their blog is too controversial and might get them in trouble? I do… That’s why I don’t write in my blog that much anymore. Almost every time I sit down to write something, I end up deleting it because I get scared that what I just [...]
Gambling for a living
Yesterday my girlfriend and I got into an argument because I mentioned that I could make a career out of playing Poker. This happened during one of my extreme fiend-sessions, which I am still in now. But first off, let me try to explain something. Even though I used the title “Gambling for a living”, [...]
Today I ran over a dog
I was driving down one of those roads where there are no residential houses near by, then BAM! suddenly a little dog ran out in front of my car. I must have struck that poor little thing in the leg for something, because it started spinning in circles and crying. The sad part is, I [...]

California cutting education funding
Ok, this just does not make any sense to me… The economy is going down the tubes and kids are stupid… The solution… Cut education funding? Lay off teachers? It’s like patching a leaking damn with bubble gum. Sure it seems like a great idea now, but how will we secure our future in the [...]
Dilated pupil and blurry vision
Once in a while, for unknown reasons, my pupils get very dilated and will not shrink regardless of how much light I shine on it. During these moments my vision is very blurry and I feel kinda aloof…. I am guessing its something I should consult a doctor about, but it happens so rarely I [...]
Nightmares of coding and politics
The other night, I dreamed that a Query attacked me. That’s right… A QUERY!!! I think that’s a clear indication that I’ve been working way too too much… What the hell does it mean when a Query attacks you? Today, I had an equally strange dream… I dreamed Barak Obama lost the Presidental race. Man [...]
Learning Ruby on Rails
At the behest of my buddy Trung, I finally began reading the Rails book. I think it has been almost 3 years now since he first told me to read it. Needless to say, I am a fool for not reading it then. Instead, I spent my time toying with PHP and CSS. But not [...]
