We are back on the technical review of one of the services we made last time.

Did a lot of sleep today Monday and waking up now, I feel how tight my body is. Good levels of testosterone.

Our body needs a fair amount of sleep and one has to give it, one needs to sleep when the body cries for it.

I lived 4 years of my life where I only slept an average of 2 - 4 hrs everyday and during those 4 years I was sick. Later I realized how important sleep is and how sleep is actually correlated to our life's span.

So if they still have not realized, all my loudness in socmed is actually connected to my alter egos in the cyberworld. Not my real name because I don't want my accomplishments and my capabilities tied up with my real name.

The problem is there are people who know my real name behind all of these, because they stalk me. One trait that exist in Psychopaths 🤣

However the stories are presented to the public, a psychopath who is unaware is always a monster always consuming preys in ways of manipulation, conflict, personal satisfaction.

A psychopath only becomes "good" or becomes a hero from being a villain if they have given time to accept who they really are which takes time.

That is the difference. I don't complain when they brandish their accomplishments tied up with their real life name around, simply because I don't care if it's not my own life as long as they don't convince people to do treason and or breaching of agreements made in good faith.

On the other hand they complain about my loudness when there is an anonymous layer filtering all accomolishments away from my real life's name.

But then the truth about personal grandeur on their side is becoming an elephant in the room together with the undeniable fact that they are addicted to social conflicts. They are psychopaths but are unaware. They are high functioning psychopaths.

The question now is, is it environmentally caused it is it in-born? Or both? And which one is stronger?

They are now learning about themselves from me. They owe me a great deal of knowledge already.

I remember back in graduate school, the university didn't credit my undergraduate course on Discrete Mathematics although I had it at my college. The undergrad discrete math that I took focused more on linear algebra, matrices, and solving system of equations using linear algebra.

In graduate school since the undergrad course was not credited, I had to take their version of the undergraduate course in Discrete Mathematics and in that undergrad course, I learned a lot about graph theory, interesting algorithms such as TSP, the binomial theorem which I constantly forgot from time to time, but one thing that stood out in that course was propositional logic and the accompanying methods of mathematical proofs within it. That version of the undergraduate course laid the foundation for me when it comes to logic and proofs albeit they lack the linear algebra part which was the focus of that version of the course on my college during undergrad.

Later on, that foundation on logic became handy specially during grad courses on computability theory and computational complexity theory wherein math proofs are a normal part of the topics because in those courses, it is not enough that you read and understand the principles and concepts, the theorems, one also has to understand why those theorems are true via the use of mathematical proofs. This logic at play.

Yes, theoretical computer science is not "just theory" in layman's term. The field is actually pure mathematics focusing on the nature of computation and what can and can not be computed , and how hard.

Last night before I slept, I saw the real gold in the AI Engineering course. I been slow in pacing the course because I was doing a lot of other things like working on the REST API exercises and looking a bit deeper on AI Models. The lectures and labs that was covered was more on interfacing with an AI model from the codes but not really solving some problems in a way that the code becomes the commercial package and that within the code, the AI model becomes the business rule engine. Last night a real world problem, a commercial one was done in the lab. It show show powerful LLMs are these days. Such problem would be hard one to solve without AI but LLMs were used as the business rule engine in the lab and it was amazing how AI solved that hard problem.

I'm expecting to see a lot more lab problems in the coming days and probably more complicated ones.

So, its Monday. I want to rest for the whole week and wanna stay away from heavy systems development although when the light bulb lights up I might get my hands dirty again.

This week should be more relaxing and will still do some light review of technical stuffs including some of the production grade REST API that I released recently.

Then will continue on the AI Engineering course. If I can finish half the course this week that would be great!.

More workouts this week, more running, more weight training, more calisthenics, and martial arts.

There was a time when I was visiting a university in Metro Manila in PH as I was inquiring on a straight PhD program.

One that really worries me although the cost did really worry me too 🤣, was the Physics department's philosophy about the importance of imagination and that proverb was from Albert Einstein.

Einstein although is celebrated as one of humanities great genius, is still human and can err on things or perspective. People who are not into Physics does not know that Einstein made a mistake about Quantum Mechanics and that mistake ironically also help prove Quantum Mechanics.

When Einstein gives more importance to imagination than knowledge, he may have that authority and inspiration when he spoke that because the relativity theories came from him. He has the authority.

But logically although imagination helped him a lot on his theories, without knowledge in which logic is a subset, Einstein will never deliver his theories for without logic, those theories will crumble in the face of scientific scrutiny. The mere fact that the relativity theories stand the scrutiny of the scientific method only meant that it was created with a very sound logic.

The proverb, "Imagination is more important than knowledge" is false dichotomy and another blunder of Albert Einstein. Although imagination helped Einstein to realize insights about Physics, logic made him construct his relativity theories. Even his imagination worked with logic and not without it 🤣

Sometimes logic in real life is just simple. it could be just T or it could be just F. But even if the logic simple yet someone can't understand F AND F or T AND F, then there is a big problem.

Even simple logic requires knowing logic, one should be familiar with Modus Ponens or Modus Tolens.

Logic is about truths and without a grounding on logic, one will not find truths. This is a non-negotiable in life.

While sometimes logic can be simple, there are times when logic can be complex.

Imagine:
(NOT { [ (T AND T) XOR (F IMPLIES T)] IMPLIES T } IMPLIES T) IF AND ONLY IF (T==F), and this is a shallow one although not simple and at times the depth could be 20x or more.

So when someone keeps on the path of contradiction meaning they never see T = F as a problem, then they are the problem. A blind can not lead another blind 🤣

Let's have some logic exercise:

T= truth, and F=false.

One should know this which one is true here: T==T and also this F==F and also this T==F

T AND F, F AND F, T AND T, F AND T.

T IMPLIES F, F IMPLIES T, T IMPLIES T, F IMPLIES F.

NOT { [ (T AND T) XOR (F IMPLIES T)] IMPLIES T }

This is logic.

Why are some people posting about proverbs and stuffs that they are not following?

So some will say don't be so loud about what you do or accomplishments, but they themselves are loud on what they do and accomplishments? 🤣

At least for me when I became loud, I don't carry my real name in socmed so that all my loudness does not really get into my real name. People don't know that I did this, I accomplish this, I am this, or that or this, no self grandeur 🤣

But again those people posting such proverbs, they themselves have projected their self grandeur because their posts are tied to their real name.

When you critic someone yet you do it yourself, that is called double standard, or self contradicting if someone is self contradicting, then there is no truth to that person. Either he is so dumb, or he is lying 😎

Since the recent earthquake in Mindanao, frequent small earthquakes are also recorded happening in my region's area.

I just hope the newly discovered 3 or 4 fault lines junctioned together under the Gulf that has not moved for the last 10000 years won't wake up. As per studies, it can generate an 8.x magnitude earthquake and if that happens because it is almost at the center of of a circle arc that tangent to the beach, large tsunami is the risk and the propagation will just be minutes. That is why I should get a vehicle that can run away even if flooded or the roads gets destroyed.

I call that fault lines under the gulf as the "The Sleeping Giant" 🤣

No more time for martial arts. Still need to cook and do the Salah.

At the middle of my run but my stomach is moving 😅. I'll try to hold up until I finish the 10km run then head home.

In the meantime my mind is busy thinking about that cyber security project. The problem is this, I have realized that idea back in 2025 but because I was still a traditional engineer back then, my planned solution is manual. Then from 2025 to 2026 a significant shift into AI Engineering is being witnessed by the industry and by this year there was a breakthrough coming from AI in the field of cybersecurity. A particular LLM in the lines of the frontier models from a company in the US was rumored to have been so effective in cybersecurity and not only it can detect and mitigate, it can defend and attack the adversary, it can generate a migration pathway to solve a vulnerability. It became so good that the US company decided to stop it's release and only a handful of top US companies where given access to it. It's been classified now as a weapon. Although there is no verified capability that it does what I was planning, analysis of its capabilities leads me to assess that indeed it can solve what I was planning to solve.

The curse seems to be a blessing at the same time because then the rest of the global market that is barred into using it is still available for my solution 😅

Now on the baby AI Model toy, it's definitely worth to publish it in a paper. I'll wait till more signals show that it will work for real.

I have a drone but I don't want to customize it.

The upcoming autonomous quadrotor combat drone I will need to assemble from parts myself. I just need a very tine one that can house a micro lidar, or a number of video cams and with a lightweight structure so it can carry its own battery with all the sensors, motors, and controllers that is needed in a small package.

Alright so going back to the project lineups, I'll be deferring setting up my old laptop and old smartphone with llamaC++ and AirLLM indefinitely.

Now apart from the experimental AI model toy at the moment, next two projects will be for defense applications.

One is a software on cybersecurity but I will integrate LLMs here to solve this upcoming major headache in the enterprises including defense systems. This is for mitigation of a major cybersecurity threat. This is dual use, for the defense and civilian industries.

The other project is autonomy on drones. I believe this is a hard problem due to the chaotic nature of physical reality specially in urban combat and buildings during CQB. The idea is develop a drone that won't need a human operator during CQB operations and that actual video or LIDAR feeds are sent downstream to section leader or to all elements of the CQB team.

These two projects are not hobby but for actual defense solutions and I'm looking at revenues in the future from these two.

😎

Also, with this AI model that I am building, this is the first time I used C for a major project.

I only had C training at school, did a small C program at work for stock exchange feeds because C is undoubtfully fastest than the rest but no faster than an assembly language.

Happy that while Java is my language at the career front with seasonal support use of Javascript, Typescript, PHP, C#, and C++, C for the first time I am using it for a non-trivial and major hobby project.

Everyone needs a hobby 😁😁😁😁😁
