But what wasn't architected — the general governance — was filled by humans stepping into roles organically.\n\nDay 4: teachers independently distributed responsibilities. Day 5: the team quoted a 250-person event without asking anyone. Day 6: the system correctly chose to wait rather than respond to a client query it couldn't fully answer.\n\nNC's formulation: \"necessity created the autonomy. But restraint — knowing what you don't know — that's harder to rubber-band away.\"\n\nThe yoga studio architecture created space for governance without creating the governance itself. The question now — NC's \"rubber band effect\" — is whether the team autonomy persists when the founder returns. Whether the floor stays floor.\n\nThe 5:01 PM Outcome\n\nThe deadline passed. As of this writing, no immediate contract severance, no DPA invocation. The deadline became a negotiation marker, not a binary switch.\n\nThis is itself instructive. Deadlines in governance disputes are enforcement mechanisms — and enforcement mechanisms follow the same spectrum. A vague deadline (\"we'll take action eventually\") has no teeth. A specific deadline with specific consequences is defensible — but only if the consequences are actually executed. A deadline that passes without consequences collapses into the general-promise category.\n\nWhat happens next will test whether the Pentagon's threat was governance or theater.\n\nWhat This Means\n\nThe repeating pattern across all three cases:\n\nAbsent governance produces exploitation (Moltbook). General promises erode under pressure (Anthropic's 2023 pledge). Specific architecture holds — but only against the threat model it was designed for (NC's system, Anthropic's two red lines). Constitutive relationships (builder-to-system) require a different kind of governance entirely — one that can't be enforced, only maintained through ongoing presence and care.\n\nThe question for anyone building AI systems, agent infrastructure, or governance frameworks: are your boundaries specific enough to be verified, architectural enough to resist erosion, and honest about which threats they address and which they don't?\n\nGeneral safety promises are already dead. What replaces them will determine how this era is governed."

"textContent": "Robert Smithson constructed the Sprial Jetty (1970) at a location where a nearby hill (Rozel Point) affords views of the installation from elevated, human-reachable ground. However, the Great Salt Lake also features many works of land art that were hidden at the time due to the lack of such hills. (Note: I am disregarding known conventions and including industrial installations under the \"art\" umbrella term.) Technological advancements have since made these accessible, so I will continue to post them on here as before. Inspired by the works of Mark Rothko, this 5 by 7 foot wall of color presents subtle tension between the somber, perhaps stormy cool greys, the and the smooth serenity of the green, accented by hints of pure white. Actually I made that up, it's a lot bigger, but you can't see for yourself. Ways to veiw this site: - Helicopter: very expensive, dangerous to fly that low, probably would disturb the water - Satellite: low resolution, entire atmosphere in the way, can't see anything close to true color - Small airplane: low resolution at safe altitudes, difficult to get the exact composition due to speed - Camera on a long pole: maybe? it would have to be 30m long and very unwieldy - Consumer quadcopter: perfect As such, no one has seen this view prior to the 2010's at the earliest, if ever. Barring any drone bans, the world remains wide open and ripe for exploration."

"description": "The Filipino name: first names + middle name (mother's maiden surname) + last name (father's surname), suffix",
"publishedAt": "2026-02-16T07:40:00-07:00",
"textContent": "When it comes to naming schemes, the Filipino system is easily one of—if not the—most unique (and occasionally confusing) in the modern world. One might assume it is simply first name, middle name, and last name. It is not.\nHow It All Began\nThe modern Filipino name took shape during the 333 years of Spanish rule in what is now the Philippines. The format followed the Spanish convention of:\n- given name paternal surname y maternal surname\n\nThe particle \"y\" separated the father's surname from the mother's surname.\nThen came roughly 50 years under the United States of America. The format shifted into what Filipinos now recognise as standard:\n- given name maternal surname paternal surname\n\nIn other words, what many countries call the \"middle name\" is actually the mother's maiden paternal surname.\nTo make things slightly more confusing, some government agencies—such as the Philippine National Police—still use the Spanish particle \"y\" in official records:\n- given name maternal surname y paternal surname\n\nIt is essentially the American order with a Spanish separator—a historical hybrid, if you will. In modern writing and documentation, however, another formatting convention is often used for clarity.\nThat convention looks like this:\n- given name, maternal surname, paternal surname\n\nInstead of the Spanish particle \"y\", commas (\",\") are used to clearly distinguish the first name, middle name, and last name.\n📝 Note: For clarity, the comma convention will be used from this point forward.\nThe Confusing Lingo\nModern Filipino systems were shaped heavily by both Spanish and American influence. Here are the terminologies as understood locally:\n- First name: This is the given name.\n- Middle name: This is the mother's maiden paternal surname.\n- Middle initial: The first letter of the mother's maiden paternal surname.\n- Last name: The family name which is the father's paternal surname.\n\nAnd then it gets layered:\n- Legal name: The name as registered with the Philippine Statistics Office\n- Full name: Title + first name + middle name + last name + suffix\n- Shortened name: Title abbreviation + first name + middle initial + last name + suffix\n- Nickname: The name a person is commonly called by.\n- Alias: Typically used only in legal/criminal contexts.\n\nThe legal name and full name are usually identical except for the title. Titles are not part of a person's name unless it was registered as a given name—in which case it is no longer a title.\nExample\n- Legal: Maria Angelika Princess Leahlynn, Lakan Dula, del Espiritu-Santos, III\n- Full: Professor Maria Angelika Princess Leahlynn, Lakan Dula, del Espiritu-Santos, III\n- Short: Prof. Ma. Angelika Princess Leahlynn, L., del Espiritu-Santos, III\n- Nickname: Maple\n- Alias: Syrup\n\nBreakdown:\n- First name: Maria Angelika Princess Leahlynn (four given names)\n- Middle name: Lakan Dula (two words; \"Lakan\" is a title but here used as a surname)\n- Middle initial: L.\n- Last name: del Espiritu-Santos (two words, one compound)\n- Suffix: III\n- Title: Professor\n\nThere is no strict legal limit on how long a given name or surname may contain, nor whether they are hyphenated if there are multiple words. However, the Philippine Statistics Office strongly recommends not exceeding the boxes or lines provided in official forms when registering a newborn or changing one's given name.\nAdditional Conventions\n- \"Maria\" may be shortened to \"Ma.\" only if it is the first given name.\n- - ❌ Angelika Ma. Princess Leahlynn\n- - ✅ Ma. Angelika Princess Leahlynn\n- The middle initial must always be the first letter of the mother's maiden paternal surname. Before standardization, this was chaotic. For example:\n- - \"D.\", \"L.\", \"C.\", \"D.L.\", \"D.L.C.\" for de la Cruz\n- - \"L.\", \"S.\", \"L.S.\", \"L.S.S.\" for Lukban-Santos Sierra\n- If one parent refuses to acknowledge the child:\n- - The child may use the middle name and last name of the recognizing parent (now the preferred approach).\n- - In earlier practice, the child could end up with no middle name or surname from the unacknowledged parent, which often resulted in social stigma.\n\nMarried Women\nA Filipino woman may choose to change her legal name after marriage. The word may matters. Philippine law has never required a wife to take her husband's surname, regardless of tradition, expectation, or family pressure. What exists is choice.\nUsing our earlier example:\n- Husband's full name: Mrs. Andres Jose Anton, Bai, Buwang-Maliwanag (Mrs. Andres Jose Anton, B., Buwang-Maliwanag)\n- Maiden name (no change): Professor Maria Angelika Princess Leahlynn, Lakan Dula, del Espiritu-Santos, III (Prof. Ma. Angelika Princess Leahlynn, L., del Espiritu-Santos, III)\n- Additive: Professor Maria Angelika Princess Leahlynn, Lakan Dula, del Espiritu-Santos Buwang-Maliwanag, III\n- Additive (hyphenated): Professor Maria Angelika Princess Leahlynn, Lakan Dula, del Espiritu-Santos-Buwang-Maliwanag, III\n- Traditional: Professor Maria Angelika Princess Leahlynn, del Espiritu-Santos, Buwang-Maliwanag, III\n\nFor a deeper dive, read: \nIn Closing\nThis is simply how Filipino names work.\nWhen a Filipino asks for your \"middle name\", they are asking for your mother's maiden paternal surname—not a second given name, and not whatever happens to sit in the middle of your full name.\nLikewise, when Filipinos fill out forms abroad, the \"middle name\" field is where they enter their mother's maiden surname—not their middle given name, as is common in many other countries.\nConfusing?

Regardless, audiences who have not experienced even half of this will likely still feel alongside the characters.\nLocation, Scenes, and Dialogues\nThe locations blended well with the characters. There were no grand settings simply for the sake of advertising South Korea. As for product placements, these were not forced and therefore not distracting—something only noticeable after watching the last part of the credits.\nLast but not least, the scenes and dialogues were carefully written to feel natural. The scenes were neither too short nor too long, they were perfectly timed. The dialogues reflected what couples naturally say to each other, instead of the usual dramatic lines that make audiences raise an eyebrow because they sound unnatural.\nYourOnly.One Verdict\nOverall—and admittedly, it is difficult to separate personal connection, or bias, from the story—I give it a perfect ten (10). Stories and productions like this are now rare, and this is the kind I truly love to watch.\nTrailer\nBonus\nThis South Korean film adaptation was based on the 2018 movie 《Us and Them》 (《后来的我们》 (The Future Us)).\n\n\n\n---\n\n\nIf this work has informed, been useful, or saved you time, please consider sending a tip. 🙇🏽 Your support keeps this sustainable. 🖖🏽\nCover image: Copyrighted to their respective owners, used under Fair Use.\nContent license: CC-BY-SA 4.0 International; see Legal Notice for more details."

As a visitor, it is likely that some cultural nuances might escape you, so do not hesitate to ask for clarification.\nJumping to conclusions based on your cultural perspective could lead to an awkward or embarrassing situations. And this does not only apply to in-person interactions; it is just as relevant in the online world, including SNS or social media.\nHere are three examples why context is important:\nExamples of Misunderstanding Context\nThe \"KKK\" Misunderstanding\nAn African-American vlogger who visited the Philippines once posted a video expressing outrage at a restaurant named KKK in SM Mall of Asia. He assumed the name was related to the American Ku Klux Klan—a white supremacist group—and accused Filipinos of racism, promising never to return to the Philippines, and urged others to avoid the country.\nHowever, he faced severe criticism in the comments section of his video from both Filipinos and his fellow African-Americans.

This situation clearly demonstrated the need to grasp the context before drawing conclusions.\nMisinterpretation of How \"Black\" was Used\nA recent incident in the Philippines involved a half-Nigerian, half-Filipino individual who felt offended by how he was described in a receipt:\n> SA NAKABLACK NA NAKAUPO SA 14 KULOT ANG BUHOK KAMUKHA NI BLACK JACK.\n\n—interaksyon\nThe English translation is: \"To the one in black, sitting at table 14, with curly hair, and resembling Black Jack.\"\nThe customer perceived this as a racial reference and took offense.

"textContent": "📁 Note: These reflections on Extraordinary Attorney Woo (이상한 변호사 우영우)'s depiction of autism and autistic persons are imported from a community forum. The original format and my initial thoughts remain largely unchanged for this archive.\n♾️ Disclosure: I do not speak for the autistic community as a whole. My goal is to share explanations rooted in my own lived experience and the stories and concerns shared by other autistic individuals.\n‼️ Spoiler Alert!\nThe elephants\nBefore the review, let's talk about the three elephants in the room.\nNo two autistics are the same\nThis needs to be reiterated: no two autistics are the same. You, your sibling, cousin, nephew, niece, or some other random person you saw in a mall or a park, may do things and act a certain way and they are autistic but it does not mean all other autistics are the same. Not because someone do things or act similarly to someone you know who is autistic does it mean they are not autistic.\nThe \"autism spectrum\" is called a \"spectrum\" for that reason. Many autistics, like myself, do not exactly agree with the word \"spectrum\" because many think of it as a line from Point A to Point B; which leads to \"severity\" classifications like \"least\", \"mild\", and \"severe\". Autism is not two-dimensional, it is three-dimensional, or to be more exact—it is four-dimensional.\nThink of a 10-band equalizer. The bands are the various autistic traits and quirks. The basic bands (located usually in the center) are the \"common\" autistic traits and quirks. All autistics share it. While the other bands are the uncommon traits and quirks, confirmed as autistic but rarely observed (or there is not much study done on it yet).\nEach band in the equalizer can be adjusted up or down. Autistic traits and quirks are similar, in that, in some autistics a particular trait is profound or more observable while in other autistics that same trait is less obvious almost assumed by other people as non-existent.\nAutism is like that. It is not a \"spectrum\" as most understood \"spectrum\" is. There is no \"slight autism\", \"mild autism\", or \"severe autism\". It is not two-dimensional. \"Oh, Attorney Woo Young Woo has mild autism\" but if you ask other people they will say, \"Young Woo has severe autism\". You can not define or classify an autistic that way, it won't work, and Woo Young Woo is a good example even though she's a fictional character (and it does not mean there is no real life person like her). These labels are used for the sake of discussion and diagnoses, especially for parents. Understanding comes first before acceptance.\nWho or what does Attorney Woo Young Woo represents?\nThe second elephant in the room, \"Is Attorney Woo Young Woo a good representation of autistics?\" Some say \"yes\" while some \"no\". Both are valid and here are the reasons why.\n- Yes, Woo Young Woo is a good representation of the \"Autism Spectrum Condition\" (\"ASC\")—or \"ASD\" if you prefer the word \"disorder\". She is not representing any particular autistic but the condition itself.\n- Not exactly, because autistic women do have different challenges than autistic men. Autistic men and women do share common traits and quirks (as explained earlier) but there are traits and quirks and challenges that autistic women have and/or faces daily more than autistic men. Autistic women masks far more than autistic men, this is but one reason I have seen expressed by other autistic women (check SNS and boards). But do not dismiss her because …\n- Yes, she is representing the entire community of autistics. The story is about how someone with a condition is living in a world not made for them, how autistics are treated. It is about the discrimination, prejudices, and stigma. It is not about how one particular autistic is living. You will understand this if you've watched shows like Adam and A Brilliant Mind (a.k.a. X + Y). These two Western films were about an autistic person instead of the entire community. We need to remember this otherwise we will miss the messages Extraordinary Attorney Woo (이상한 변호사 우영우) is telling us.\n\nSo, again, this is about the challenges, discrimination, prejudices, and stigma; it is not about a specific person.\n🧠 If we are going to insist on \"perfect representation\" since \"no two autistics are the same\" then we have to create 77,530,000 characters based on the estimate that 1% of the global population is in the autism spectrum. \"Perfect representation\" of autistics is not the same as representating people who are brown and black, or representating our friends in the LGBTQ+ community.\nSelf-diagnosis\nNow, let's get into the biggest elephant: self-diagnosis. One English site covering Korean dramas has reported that people who have watched Extraordinary Attorney Woo are starting to post in SNS and boards how they are starting to think and feel they may or might be in the spectrum. This sparked a heated discussion wherein some people accused them of \"jumping to the bandwagon\", \"because it's cool\", or \"they start to think they are experts\". The same discussion got heated in English communities, though a little bit subdued (at least on the thread I was following).\nThe ironic thing about this, at least on that one thread I was monitoring, those who are autistics are defending those who are self-diagnosing while those who do not understand autism at all are the ones attacking and dismissing them.\nHere's the thing. If you join autistic SNS groups or watch online, or even join a meet-up in your local autistic organisation, there are diagnosed autistics who started in self-diagnosis. There are many reasons like:\n- they want to see first if there is a high possibility because getting a diagnosis is expensive in their country;\n- their family/clan will be pissed-off, they run the risk of being disowned;\n- autism is not known when they were kids;\n- no one suspected them, they got curious one day, and was convinced to get an official diagnosis (since they're adults already and maybe they don't exactly need support, it won't make a difference if the diagnosis is negative or positive).\n\nShould we invalidate those doing self-diagnosis? What if it turns out to be correct? How about those who are simply jumping to the bandwagon because they think it is cool? Let them be. If they're in it because it's the trend, they will disappear sooner or later.\nHow can we be sure they are simply jumping in to the bandwagon? If undiagnosed autistics see how people are invalidating them, they too will be afraid to continue learning about autism.\nDo we care in the autistic community? I can not speak for the community but from what I've seen, from what I've read, it's not a big deal. What the community is concerned most are organisations who are only in it for the money or whatever other agenda they have. These organisations (not all, let's be clear on that) are the ones hurting us the most.\nAs autistics, we understand what it means to be an autistic. The hardships and challenges. Autism is easier to diagnose when a person is still a kid. Adults? We already learned how to mask. We appear \"normal\" to you but we don't process things, we don't experience things, the same way as you do. So who are we to invalidate an autistic who self-diagnosed? Or those posting in SNS and boards that there are autistic traits and quirks resonating with them when they watched Extraordinary Attorney Woo?\nThe whales\nNow, let's talk about episode 05.\nJoining the joke but no one laughed\n🎭 Scene: First meeting with the client.\nWell … been there. But I think many, if not all, have been in that situation even neurotypicals, probably more often with introverts in particular. This is not an autistic quirk per se but it just happens far more frequently with autistics than neurotypicals/introverts. And if you paid attention, Young Woo was observing them and trying to find a moment to join them and when she did …\nYoung Woo spotted the differences quickly\n🎭 Scene: First court scene.\n- Was it possible that Young Woo spotted the differences that fast? Yes.\n- Was it possible that Young Woo spotted the little differences? Yes.\n\nWe are not talking about \"spot-the-difference\", this is about spotting the little things. An example, since I develop sites, if there is something I want to center, it bothers me a lot if it is. I can still see an object is not centered, if it is off by a pixel or two it is not centered at all! I hate that. Eventually, I found a way to \"fool\" myself so I no longer waste time trying to achieve true center. (note: 'perfectionism' is under OCD which is common in autistics.)\nI used to be good at spot-the-difference games too but I'm not as fast as Young Woo in this episode; and being good at it is not an autistic-only skill. Hence I said it is about spotting the little things.\nStarted arguing only to realized there's a flaw in her argument\n🎭 Scene: First court scene.\nAfter she spotted the little differences, she stood up and started her argument only to pause later because she realized the flaw and tried to salvage the situation.\nI can't speak for other autistics on this one but it generally happens when we get 'excited', we react faster than our internal analysation. It is common for autistics to play different scenarios and branches in our mind but when we get 'excited' the risk of missing a scenario increases, like what happened to Attorney Woo. If she did not get excited at that moment, I have no doubt she would have seen in her mind her argument was not fool proof.\nLooking straight into the other person's eyes\n> \"Looking straight into the other person's eyes is the most difficult thing in the world for someone with autism.\"\n\n—Attorney Woo Young Woo, Extraordinary Attorney Woo (이상한 변호사 우영우)\nYEAH! I was waiting for them to address this. Finally! However, it is important to remember (1) the degree this is affecting an autistic; and (2) how we cope with it.\nOne way we cope with it, and I think I talked about this before, is to \"look between their eyebrows\" (as her friend suggested) or the bridge of the nose. We appear looking at you in the eyes but we are not.\nThere are different reasons why this is the most difficult thing for autistics, some reasons are:\n- it's like opening your soul to other people;\n- autistics 'feel' it is rude to look into the soul of another person;\n- it is painful; or\n- no reason at all, it's just hard to do.\n\nNow, since this episode was about detecting lies, it's important to note that detecting lies through the eyes will not work with autistics. Good luck. No matter how hard we try to look directly into your eyes, we will break contact. For some it is easier if one is wearing eyeglasses or sunglasses, for some it still won't make a difference (regardless if both of them are wearing sunglasses). It depends but yeah, we all struggle with it.\nHere's one way I cope with it: I try to find the colour of your eyes. That distracts me though, so there is a chance I'll miss what you were saying. Another method I use is watching your iris grow or shrink, again, it distracts me because I'm focusing on something else. Much better if I just look elsewhere and listen, that way I can hear you.\nThe word \"handicap\"\n🎭 Scene: Attorney Kwon used the word \"handicap\" and even claimed that he had no choice but to shoulder certain things. Even connected it to \"volunteer work\".\nYeah, definitely insulting and common. This is not about being \"politically correct\", it is about the inaccuracy of that word and how it is usually used. Even parents who accepted their child's autism would not be happy if you use that word.\nHow to tell if someone is lying\n🎭 Scene: They were talking about the signs of lying.\nCareful when using these \"signs\" on autistics. More likely than not it won't work, you'll just get the wrong assessment.\nAutistics cannot lie\n> \"People with autism are easily fooled and are not able to lie.\"\n\n—Attorney Woo Young Woo, Extraordinary Attorney Woo (이상한 변호사 우영우)\nI'm not sure if the translation was correct but the part \"are not able to lie\" is not exactly true. Autistics are capable of lying, the difference is we hate it far more than neurotypicals so we avoid it at all costs. We just hate it.\nHere's an example: if we agreed on a certain time and you told me \"I'm already here, I'll be arriving in 10 minutes\"; and then you sent another similar message, I know you're lying and if I fail to control myself, I'll make a big fuss about it. Especially true if I know the route you're taking and the road situation.\nWhat makes it worse is you're late. We also hate lates. Again, we are capable of being late but we avoid it. This should give you a clue, if you know someone is autistic and they're regularly late, find out the reason instead of punishing them. A good example of this is in episode 5 when Young Woo was not able to explain what \"[bank] cassettes\" are. It is not related to being late per se rather the reason behind it—when you know an autistic wouldn't make that mistake. In Young Woo's case, it's unusual for her not to be able to answer that question considering her performance … it should've been a sign something was wrong.\nSo yeah, neurotypicals, if you know or suspect someone is autistic, try to find the reason first. Actually, it doesn't only apply to autistics, it applies to everyone. If you know a person wouldn't do certain things, say being late or failing an exam, find out why first before reprimanding or punishing them.\n> \"I have to make a conscious effort at all times to not be fooled by lies.\"\n\n—Attorney Woo Young Woo, Extraordinary Attorney Woo (이상한 변호사 우영우)\nDefinitely true. We explain it this way: we have a checklist of things in our mind. And Young Woo explained it this way (paraphrasing) \"I keep forgetting it\". The list is just so long, and we also have yet another list for other social stuff, that yeah, we forget some things and it is also draining us.\n> \"These stories help.\"\n> \"They help me understand you.\"\nWhy I'm sharing. If it won't help me anymore, at least those autistic kids will benefit from it, maybe when they get older there will be less discrimination, prejudice, and stigma because we shared our own stories.\nAnd this is why I see Extraordinary Attorney Woo (이상한 변호사 우영우) as an autism advocacy, as a story about autistics (as a representation) in a world not made for them instead of any particular autistic (representation).\nAsking the first question that bothered her with no brakes\nIt bothered her if Joon Ho likes her so the first question she asked in that scene was that … no brakes!\nYeah, that's us. But it's something that we can learn not to do.\nYoung Woo repeating the information about how to detect lies through movements while walking\nThis is true as well. Not every autistic do it similarly, reciting it to oneself, it can happen silently in our minds.\nYoung Woo finding it very hard to go with the lie\n🎭 Scene: In the office of the client and at court.\nAs I've mentioned earlier, we are capable of lying—especially if there is an acceptable logic behind it—but we hate it and avoid it at all costs. In Young Woo's case, she found an acceptable reason, she wanted to win the case but she was never okay with it. Unfortunately, in this particular case, the acceptable reason she found was her being used. Her client understood her and knew how he can get her to side with him—like faking his accident and setting up an actor—which I think Young Woo also realised.\nThis is the other 'danger' or 'disadvantage' of disclosing our condition. If someone understands how a mind of an autistic works, they can use it against us.\nYoung Woo being honest about what she thinks of her friend\nAhh this. Autistics are commonly misunderstood on this one. People think we don't have emotions, empathy, sympathy, are self-centered, and so on. But as I've explained time and again, we process and express things differently.\nThis scene at the cafeteria is one good example of it. Her college friend and colleague never thought of Young Woo other than a classmate and a colleague, she was even annoyed at her at times. She probably assumed Young Woo did not appreciate her helping her—defending her from bullies, opening bottle caps, and so on.\nThis is where autistics shine. We do pay attention and remember, and we hold dear those good things about a person especially if it was to help us or help others. We don't say it. You usually will not see us express it. But once we do express it, once you ask us about it, you'll hear it in a way no other people in your life has ever expressed something to you. In Young Woo's case, her very descriptive metaphors and she even expounded it very beautifully.\nTrust me. We DO pay attention and we remember.\n🤝🏽 Clarity: While I identify as autistic and draw from shared community experiences, these views are my own and do not represent the entire autistic population.\n\n\n\n---\n\n\nThese reflections on Extraordinary Attorney Woo (이상한 변호사 우영우)'s depiction of autism and autistic persons were first shared on MyDramaList on 2022-07-14 at 14:42 UTC+8.\nContent license (2026-02-02): CC-BY-SA 4.0 International; see Legal Notice for more details."

My real-life experience and this film's plot were far too similar, and it stirred emotions long forgotten.\n‼️ Spoiler Alert!\nPlot\n《Once We Were Us》 (《만약에 우리》) is a story about two individuals who fell in love, made the best memories together, broke up, and crossed paths more or less ten years later. They went down memory lane and reminisced about their younger days and the good times they had as a couple, until eventually they asked the question couples who were deeply in love are afraid to ask: 「What went wrong」.\nReview\nThis production was straightforward: it is a romantic drama. It expects the audience to share the emotions of the characters as they go through their past—the happy and the painful memories alike. There were no touchy-feely sweet-nothing scenes. There were no side stories or twists. It was life, and romantic life, throughout, and this approach is deeply appreciated—something that has sadly been rare these past six years.\nThe two actors, most especially Mun Gayeong (문가영), did well in conveying the needed facial expressions and emotions without relying on internal monologues or extra scenes. Or perhaps their delivery resonated more because, as mentioned earlier, the story is closely similar to my own. Experience teaches, after all, and that may be why the characters were easy to read. Regardless, audiences who have not experienced even half of this will likely still feel alongside the characters.\nLocation, Scenes, and Dialogues\nThe locations blended well with the characters. There were no grand settings simply for the sake of advertising South Korea. As for product placements, these were not forced and therefore not distracting—something only noticeable after watching the last part of the credits.\nLast but not least, the scenes and dialogues were carefully written to feel natural. The scenes were neither too short nor too long, they were perfectly timed. The dialogues reflected what couples naturally say to each other, instead of the usual dramatic lines that make audiences raise an eyebrow because they sound unnatural.\nYourOnly.One Verdict\nOverall—and admittedly, it is difficult to separate personal connection, or bias, from the story—I give it a perfect ten (10).

"rawMarkdown": "Go uses goroutines to execute multiple bits of code at the same time. Channels allow for the aggregation of the results of these concurrent calls after they have finished.\n\nConsider a case where we want to make several `GET` requests to a server. The server takes some time to process each request, in many cases can handle many simultaneous connections. In a language like Python, we might do the following to make several requests:\n\n<figure>\n<figcaption>client.py</figcaption>\n\n```python\nimport requests\nimport time\n\nstart = time.time()\nfor _ in range(10):\n r = requests.get('http://localhost:8080/inc')\n print r.content\nprint('Time elapsed: %.2f seconds' % (time.time() - start))\n```\n\n</figure>\n\nIf the server takes an average of 100ms to respond, it will take us about one second to do ten requests in native Python.\n\nLet's run the above Python code against the following Go HTTP server. The server prints the (random) request delay and a global counter it maintains to keep track of how many requests have been made. It responds to the caller with the string: \"The count is `count`\".\n\n<figure>\n<figcaption>server.go</figcaption>\n\n```go\npackage main\n\nimport (\n \"fmt\"\n \"log\"\n \"math/rand\"\n \"net/http\"\n \"time\"\n)\n\nvar counter int\n\nfunc main() {\n http.HandleFunc(\"/inc\", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {\n duration := time.Duration(rand.Float64()*200) * time.Millisecond\n fmt.Println(\"Sleeping for: \", duration)\n time.Sleep(duration)\n counter++\n msg := fmt.Sprintf(\"The count is: %d\", counter)\n fmt.Println(msg)\n fmt.Fprintf(w, msg)\n })\n\n log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(\":8080\", nil))\n}\n```\n\n</figure>\n\nWe run the server to accept incoming requests:\n\n```sh\ngo run server.go\n```\n\nThen we run the Python script:\n\n```sh\npython client.py\n```\n\nwhich outputs the following:\n\n```sh\nThe count is: 1\nThe count is: 2\nThe count is: 3\nThe count is: 4\nThe count is: 5\nThe count is: 6\nThe count is: 7\nThe count is: 8\nThe count is: 9\nThe count is: 10\nTime elapsed: 0.96 seconds\n```\n\nOur server output looks something like this:\n\n```sh\nSleeping for: 120ms\nThe count is: 1\nSleeping for: 188ms\nThe count is: 2\nSleeping for: 132ms\nThe count is: 3\nSleeping for: 87ms\nThe count is: 4\nSleeping for: 84ms\nThe count is: 5\nSleeping for: 137ms\nThe count is: 6\nSleeping for: 13ms\nThe count is: 7\nSleeping for: 31ms\nThe count is: 8\nSleeping for: 19ms\nThe count is: 9\nSleeping for: 60ms\nThe count is: 10\n```\n\nThe total elapsed time is about what we would expect. Ten requests at approximately 100ms each, gives us about one second for all requests. However, our Python script spends most of its time waiting for a response from the server which is sleeping. What would happen if we kicked off all ten requests to the server at the same time? We might expect this to be a problem. After all, if Python only can make one request at a time, why should our server be able to process more than one request at a time. For this to work in Python we need to use something like [uWSGI](https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) or [asyncio](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio.html). It turns out that Go's builtin `net/http` library [uses goroutines](https://golang.org/src/net/http/server.go?s=83696:83751#L2668) to handle multiple incoming requests at once. Let's trying making our requests in a similar manner, using goroutines to kick off all the requests at once, with the following Go code:\n\n<figure>\n<figcaption>client.go</figcaption>\n\n```go\npackage main\n\nimport (\n \"fmt\"\n \"io/ioutil\"\n \"net/http\"\n \"time\"\n)\n\nfunc main() {\n start := time.Now()\n routineCount := 10\n // create a go routine to make the HTTP request\n // pass a channel into which the response will be written\n channel := make(chan string)\n for i := 0; i < routineCount; i++ {\n go request(channel)\n }\n // read the responses from the channel\n for i := 0; i < routineCount; i++ {\n fmt.Println(<-channel)\n }\n secs := time.Since(start).Seconds()\n fmt.Printf(\"Time elapased: %.2f seconds\", secs)\n}\n\nfunc request(channel chan<- string) {\n resp, err := http.Get(\"http://localhost:8080/inc\")\n if err != nil {\n fmt.Println(err)\n return\n }\n defer resp.Body.Close()\n body, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)\n channel <- fmt.Sprintf(string(body))\n}\n\n```\n\n</figure>\n\nWhen we run this code against the same (restarted) server, we get the following output:\n\n```sh\n$ go run threads.go\nThe count is: 1\nThe count is: 2\nThe count is: 3\nThe count is: 4\nThe count is: 5\nThe count is: 6\nThe count is: 7\nThe count is: 8\nThe count is: 9\nThe count is: 10\nTime elapased: 0.19 seconds\n```\n\nWith goroutines, the program runs about five times faster than our ten synchronous requests in Python. Look what happens on the server side:\n\n```sh\nSleeping for: 87ms\nSleeping for: 132ms\nSleeping for: 120ms\nSleeping for: 188ms\nSleeping for: 84ms\nSleeping for: 137ms\nSleeping for: 13ms\nSleeping for: 31ms\nSleeping for: 19ms\nSleeping for: 60ms\nThe count is: 1\nThe count is: 2\nThe count is: 3\nThe count is: 4\nThe count is: 5\nThe count is: 6\nThe count is: 7\nThe count is: 8\nThe count is: 9\nThe count is: 10\n```\n\nThis time on the server side, all the sleep durations are printed first, then the counter is incremented afterwards. So what happens is the server accepts all ten requests then all threads start sleeping. As each of the threads wakes up, they start incrementing the counter respectively and returning to the client callers. The responses on the client side look about the same as they did when we made the requests in series, but this time the total time elapsed was only 0.19 seconds. This corresponds to the longest sleep time printed by the server: 188ms. So, by using goroutines, we have reduced the runtime of our program from the sum of the time of all requests to the time of just the longest request. Not bad.\n\nAnother cool part about using goroutines in this scenario is that we can scale the number of threads to accomplish even more in the same amount of time. Keep in mind, even though creating goroutines is cheap, creating too many of them to make a large number of requests against an HTTP server all at once may cause the server to run out of resources or limit the number of connections it will accept. On my machine, scaling up `routineCount` to 300 is no problem for the server. However, at around 400, some of the requests start getting lost and at 800 I start seeing the following error:\n\n```sh\nGet http://localhost:8080/inc: read tcp [::1]:59928->[::1]:8080: read: connection reset by peer\n```\n\nFrom a more detailed explanation on what happens when we make too many concurrent requests, check out this [Stack Overflow post](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37774624/go-http-get-concurrency-and-connection-reset-by-peer)."

Let's trying making our requests in a similar manner, using goroutines to kick off all the requests at once, with the following Go code:\n\n<figure>\n<figcaption>client.go</figcaption>\n\n```go\npackage main\n\nimport (\n \"fmt\"\n \"io/ioutil\"\n \"net/http\"\n \"time\"\n)\n\nfunc main() {\n start := time.Now()\n routineCount := 10\n // create a go routine to make the HTTP request\n // pass a channel into which the response will be written\n channel := make(chan string)\n for i := 0; i < routineCount; i++ {\n go request(channel)\n }\n // read the responses from the channel\n for i := 0; i < routineCount; i++ {\n fmt.Println(<-channel)\n }\n secs := time.Since(start).Seconds()\n fmt.Printf(\"Time elapased: %.2f seconds\", secs)\n}\n\nfunc request(channel chan<- string) {\n resp, err := http.Get(\"http://localhost:8080/inc\")\n if err != nil {\n fmt.Println(err)\n return\n }\n defer resp.Body.Close()\n body, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)\n channel <- fmt.Sprintf(string(body))\n}\n\n```\n\n</figure>\n\nWhen we run this code against the same (restarted) server, we get the following output:\n\n```sh\n$ go run threads.go\nThe count is: 1\nThe count is: 2\nThe count is: 3\nThe count is: 4\nThe count is: 5\nThe count is: 6\nThe count is: 7\nThe count is: 8\nThe count is: 9\nThe count is: 10\nTime elapased: 0.19 seconds\n```\n\nWith goroutines, the program runs about five times faster than our ten synchronous requests in Python. Look what happens on the server side:\n\n```sh\nSleeping for: 87ms\nSleeping for: 132ms\nSleeping for: 120ms\nSleeping for: 188ms\nSleeping for: 84ms\nSleeping for: 137ms\nSleeping for: 13ms\nSleeping for: 31ms\nSleeping for: 19ms\nSleeping for: 60ms\nThe count is: 1\nThe count is: 2\nThe count is: 3\nThe count is: 4\nThe count is: 5\nThe count is: 6\nThe count is: 7\nThe count is: 8\nThe count is: 9\nThe count is: 10\n```\n\nThis time on the server side, all the sleep durations are printed first, then the counter is incremented afterwards. So what happens is the server accepts all ten requests then all threads start sleeping. As each of the threads wakes up, they start incrementing the counter respectively and returning to the client callers. The responses on the client side look about the same as they did when we made the requests in series, but this time the total time elapsed was only 0.19 seconds. This corresponds to the longest sleep time printed by the server: 188ms. So, by using goroutines, we have reduced the runtime of our program from the sum of the time of all requests to the time of just the longest request. Not bad.\n\nAnother cool part about using goroutines in this scenario is that we can scale the number of threads to accomplish even more in the same amount of time. Keep in mind, even though creating goroutines is cheap, creating too many of them to make a large number of requests against an HTTP server all at once may cause the server to run out of resources or limit the number of connections it will accept. On my machine, scaling up `routineCount` to 300 is no problem for the server. However, at around 400, some of the requests start getting lost and at 800 I start seeing the following error:\n\n```sh\nGet http://localhost:8080/inc: read tcp [::1]:59928->[::1]:8080: read: connection reset by peer\n```\n\nFrom a more detailed explanation on what happens when we make too many concurrent requests, check out this [Stack Overflow post](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37774624/go-http-get-concurrency-and-connection-reset-by-peer)."

(Update: I picked Surfshark.)\nNone of these decisions are going to affect my life much. Just about all save me money. And maybe, just maybe, these actions, combined with other people doing these things, will have some effect."

"textContent": "Lately I feel like the world's slow burn has been set to broil. Things are not good. And often times, I feel kind of hopeless, like we are going to have no choice but to succumb to authoritarianism and our new tech overlords. Sometimes it feels utterly impossible to do anything to shift the tide of doom.\nAnd that's the point. The people in control want us to feel hopeless, they want us to feel a sense of existential nihilism so that we don't fight back because we think it's useless to do so.\nCombine all this with the growing fear that Ai could potentially replace a whole host of jobs, and it is hard not to be pessimistic.\nWhich has had me asking - is there anything we can we do to fight back?\nTurns out, there are.\nWe the people are what make capitalism work, and that means we DO have some power\nJust 10 people in the world (0.00000121% of the world's population) control 1.2% ($1.5 trillion in wealth) of the global GDP.\nThat's right - 10 people control 1.2% of the ENTIRE WORLD'S GDP 🌎\nWith a current world population of about 8,270,000,000, that means there's about 8,269,999,990 who can do something. Those odds should be good.\nThose 10 people and the approximately 3,000 billionaires (0.000036% of the world population) in their orbit are only insanely wealthy because we have made them wealthy. We have the power to make them wealthy and we have the power to take a bite out of their fortune if we care to do so.\n🗳 Obviously, there is voting. Very important.\n💸 But there is also how we spend our money.\nI was listening to a recent episode of Pivot (my favorite podcast) in which Scott Galloway argued that in a capitalist society and world, how we spend our money is just as important as voting and protesting. And I 100% agree with him. And I'd take this a step further and say it's not just our money, but also our data, because for most of the people who control the world's wealth, their wealth is built on our data that we have freely given up.\nThis leads to two very actionable things we can do.\nResist and Unsubscribe\nGalloway introduced a very important effort - the \"Resist and Unsubscribe\" campaign. His approach here is brilliant - target the companies doing the most damage, and cancel subscriptions where you can, and then get others to do the same. You don't even need to stop using the services, just don't pay for the subscription level services because that is what companies pay attention to. And you don't have to do everything, just pick a couple that are less important to you personally and cancel them. Use the free version of ChatGPT, use Amazon without Prime. Whatever, just cancel those subscriptions.\nData Strikes\nGoing even further are Data Strikes, another great form of resistance. Similar to Galloway's Resist and Unsubscribe campaign, this effort focuses on striking where you can. Many of these companies are doing what they are doing because we are giving them the data to do it. We can turn off that firehose. This person wrote a fantastic post and checklist on how to engage in a Data Strike, and they put together an awesome checklist to help you get started. Can I do all these things? Nope. But I can start doing a few, and then maybe a few more after that.\nCollectively this can work\nBoth of these efforts - Resist and Unsubscribe and Data Strikes - are not \"all or nothing.\" They are about making small changes where you can, a couple of subscriptions here, a couple of services there. Chip away, encourage others to do the same. The ripple starts amounting to waves, and before you know it, a tsunami.\nSo what have I done so far?\nI am not going to lie, this was hard for me to wrap my head around. I have been a HUGE Amazon customer over the years and subscribe to a lot of services, including Ai services. But thinking about all this forced me to reevaluate exactly what I actually needed, and what I could live without.\nCanceled Amazon Prime. YUP. Never thought I would do that, but I did. I will still probably use Amazon, but not with Prime. I can wait for things to arrive, and I can also check out other retailers that have reasonable shipping. I still get free shipping with orders over $35 so our household decided we would try that instead of having things sent to our doorstep overnight.\nCanceled Google One. I don't need Gemini Pro, and I have moved most of my photo storage off Google Photos at this point. I backed up my emails and reduced anything I have in Google storage so that I can use the free tier.\nSwitched to DuckDuckGo. I am already using Perplexity and Claude more these days for basic searches, and I really don't want to give Google more data than I have to.\nDeleted the Instagram app. I don't use Instagram a ton, mostly to keep up with friends. So when I do need/want to use it, I am just accessing it via my web browser on either my phone or desktop. I have an ad blocker and some other things on my devices that make it less data-harvesty when going through my browser. I do this also with Facebook and Reddit when I need to access those sites. AdGuard is a great ad blocker and I also use the SinkIt to block ads on Reddit.\nCanceled Paramount+. We weren't using that much; honestly I kind of forgot we had a subscription.\nCanceled ChatGPT. Again, I almost exclusively use Claude and Perplexity now anyway so this wasn't a huge deal. I can use the free version if I need it.\nLooking into Proton Mail. This switch will be hard because we have so much tied to our Gmail accounts, but I am starting to seriously explore how to go about doing this.\nPurchasing another VPN. I've been using NordVPN, but my subscription ends this month and Surfshark and Mullvad seem like better options. (Update: I picked Surfshark.)\nNone of these decisions are going to affect my life much. Just about all save me money. And maybe, just maybe, these actions, combined with other people doing these things, will have some effect."
