Counter intelligence training is near.

Wrapping on the Riemann Sums after quite a number of practice problems.

What's up today? I got attacked by different dogs at different timelines and locations along the run tonight. Unusual aggressiveness 😅

Done with a long slow distance 21km run this late night.

Saw the vid of a combat between a Ukrainian and a Russian fighter. It was a knife fight and the former died.

One of the skills I'll be imparting to the Ukrainians there will be knife fighting.

In the past there were russians coming here in the Philippines studying Filipino Martial Arts and I am very suspicious about the enthusiasm of these people and sometimes while watching these guys study under my master in Manila I kinda smell that probably some of these guys if not all are soldiers.

Radical Islam has it's roots from Saudi Arabia. This brand of Islam is different from the Islam known before it and the main contradiction is justice is exclusive only to Muslims hence, the moral disengagement.

The Moro tribes here in my country has a different culture than the Arabs hence is more peaceful. They only take arms during oppression, a justified Jihad like during the authoritarian regime of the martial law era where Muslims were forced to train under the military for a supposed ops to take back Saba including the rampant rape of Muslim women and massacre of Muslim men during those times.

These days, the moros after settling with a peace agreement with the government many years back has either surrendered their arms or been integrated with the armed forces and is helping the government to implement law and order on areas where small scale armed conflicts exist. They also fought side by side with the government forces during the ISIS take over of one of the Muslim cities in our south many years back.

The Mosque in the cities are usually replete with local citizens that came from the Arab world to work and came back here as Muslims or foreigners from the Arab world. Most Friday sermons are about comparing the superior morality of Muslims against the inferior morals of non-Muslims and is polarizing.

The Mosque in the countryside which is composed mainly of Moros didn't have that outlook and instead focused on how to live as a good Muslim hence the Muslim communities around the Mosque co-exists with the Christians in the same area peacefully.

My brand of Islam is aligned with how the country Turkiye (Turkey) balances Islam with the modern world.

The reason I am indifferent towards the Arab version of Islam.

Though Islam has mainly carried the brand of terrorism,
fundamentalism at its core happens in other religions as well and yes there are terrorism committed by Christianity as well in parts of Africa.

I hope someday, teaching hate in a religious setting will be criminalized.

I am a Muslim and seen this kind of stuffs. Most in the cities' Mosque in my country has these hate teachings but the one I attend in the countryside is peaceful and friendly to non-Muslims.

Another gym workout today and because have my mountain bike I don't need transport from my place at the beach to the municipality for the gym.

This time I need to take care of my mountain bike not to wade it in floods which has a mix of sea water.

Bought a new mountain bike half. It's allow and half the price of my previous one and much lighter.

Riemann Sums and Definite Integrals last night.

Went back to MIT OCW Single Variable Calculus 18.01SC course to learn the lessons on Integrals.

The radical Islam ideology still existing. The human stupidity.

I've reached the student membership timeframe limit in IEEE.

The membership will cost more for me now because I am back on professional status.

So it's 2025 already here. Didn't celebrate like I used to in real. But celebrated online in the metaverse with lot's of friends around the globe.

Now back to studying Integrals while on my lunch meal.

Done with a 21km run race pace and resting.

Taking a good milk with coffee.

Still wrapping my head with this integration by parts method.

Integrals has lot of work comparted to derivatives.

Been a while since I last check the information system from the university where I took my first semester first year BSEE.

Got above average grades for me on all the courses using the 1-5 grading scale or the reverse numerical grading system:

Courses:
- Understanding The Self = 1.25
- Purposive Communication = 1.25
- Chemistry for Engineers = 1.75
- Mathematics In The Modern World for Engineers = 2.25
- Calculus 1 For Engineers = 2.25

Too bad I can't pursue the program anymore due to reprioritization of goals and because the program will never be accredited by the US or European counterparts.

Into integration by parts.

Already on the Integrals because it is being discussed in the Susskind's first book on the series of The Theoretical Minimum.
