Many Internet Web Page Development services are being promoted using two themes.

(1) Cheap
(2) Easy

I don't think we should push our services in the same theme. I rather be

(1) Value Price
(2) Compete / Best

Does that make sense?

Eye Sight

I just realize that I cannot find the cutting line behind the sticker I made. I saw the cutting / pealing line when I ware reading glasses. It sucks.

This is why I have SLR camera.

Take a look at those pictures.
Same picture taken at almost same time.
I can adjust the ISO and Shatter Speed to take better picture.
I can't really do that with iPhone.

Defining Problems

Sep

23

Can you change?

There is no solution if there is no problem.
But in many cases, people are so used to do what they do, they don't even realize there is a problem.
Also, many solutions will involve some kind of changes.
People do not like changes.
It will be a battle every time someone try to change even if the change will make things easier, better and more productive.

Failure is an option !!!

Sep

21

A homeless with a car.
What went wrong?

If you do not allow anyone to fail ... that will bring a false sense of security which could bring people to failure. Sometime, people fail ... so let them fail. So that they learn from the mistake and make it better next time.

As a society, we would like to see nobody fails. But that is not possible. We should lend hands to people trying to bring them out. But making them comfortable being homes should not be the answer.

"Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime."

Aren't we just giving them a fish?

Newegg users’ credit card info was exposed!!!

Sep

20

On September 18, Newegg discovered a month-long security breach that exposed users' credit card information. The malicious code injected into Newegg's final checkout page was active from August 14 to September 18, affecting both mobile and desktop users. It's currently unknown which accounts were affected, but in an email to customers who made purchases during this time period, Newegg advised users to keep an eye on their accounts for any suspicious activity. Newegg plans to post a FAQ on September 21 that will answer common questions about the breach; the link to the FAQ will be published on Newegg's social media platforms.

You may work hard and long but there is no guarantee of success.
At the same time, sometime you may succeed without working hard and long.

IMMIGRANTS ARE WELCOME HERE

Sep

17

I am an immigrant ... It is nice to be welcomed.
But there is a difference between legal and illegal immigration.
If people are illegal, they should do their best to become legal.

Happy to be back in Small Town, Seattle.

Sep

I was in LA for just two nights and one day.
I used to live in LA and went to college there.
This is one big city with mega population and traffic.

There is a condo called AVID just west of our office. The price that for those condos/town house run between $700.000 to $900,000. First few units sold quickly but the sale has stopped. Today two people are standing in front promote the sale.

I heard there are inventories in Seattle as well. In general housing market is cooling.

Marketing

Sep

Nike thought people would endorse NIKE for this ad.
If the target is to create people to talk about Nike, they have succeeded.
I personally would not approve this ad campaign.
I think it is a bad taste.

It is not like Apple's Think Different Ad.

Toshihiro Suzuki

Suzuki Motor Company decided to pull out of car manufacturing in China. They also pulled out of US market for their automobiles. Suzuki still sells its motorcycles in the US.

Mr. Toshihiro Suzuki is a CEO and he can dictate where the company os going. It does not act like publicly traded company. I like it.

Rangefinder

Sep

5

I bought a rangefinder for my golf game on Amazon and was delivered this afternoon. Usually a rangefinder for golf costs over $200, some costing close to $500.

I found this rangefinder for less than $80 on Amazon so I bought it. The catch is this is not a rangefinder for golf, it is for hunting. I will use it next time I play, but at this price, it is a bargain.

I guess haters are more cost conscious.

Bloguru video testing 480P ... M4P file (iPhone Video)

This is a 12 MB video in 480p ... The original file was 41 MB in 1080p.
It did not work with 1080p ... So I am testing it with 480p.
We are monitoring the server load ... it is taking a lot of load when I upload video.
We need to look at the conversion process or check and see if we can play video without conversion.

$10 Gift

Sep

1

I did a survey for one of the products I purchases (as seen on the image above).
I did not like the product at all as it was vey difficult to setup and when it was set up, everything was unusably slow.

Few weeks after I received the product, they send me survey. I answered it ... yesterday, I receive the email thanking me with $10 Amazon gift. I thought it was a scam, but the link was sending me to amazon.com. So, I floored and logged in to Amazon. It actually game me $10 credit.

I still wish I did not buy this product, but $10 is nice.

Taking Care of Tiny and Nano

Sep

1

While Mayumi is away, I take care of Tiny and Nano.
Tiny is over 16 years old and Nano just turned 12.
They are not young any more ... dogs ages quicker than humans.
They do not move very much any more but they are healthy.
I miss Pompom.
