/ Lesson: lying to get what you want is smart
Eh wait….

They say Asia / Malaysia is 10 years behind the west.
While this is no longer true, I just realized this is where I am at right now.
About 15 years ago, there were multiple big booms around SAAS, cloud, API and data. Today I’m finally doing a very shallow dive into the intersection of all these🤩

Apparently my support flow has been broken for months now.
It is both a miracle & misfortune that I only got a 1 star review today when one of the many paying customers decided they have had enough.
I’m fixing the support flow while onboarding a new dev now.

Content curation is one of the most underrated life changing skills.
For the past few months, I’ve largely been been straying around South east Asia’s historical / business literature about conglomerate style multi-gen empire.

Watching all the reactions towards Nothing Phone 3’s design:
You thought it had a cult following but an asymmetrically design paired with a steep price tag immediately turn folks around announcing how they have started hating since years back

I have been publishing some free Figma resources on behalf of Titlegram.
It's been fun to be able to push out something so quick (my first one went live last week) and see so many people use it.

Tools I paid for when I started my 1st saas (Shopify app) as a non-dev in 2020:
- Google Workplace
- Heroku.
Now that I'm feeling more confident with the whole internet thing (& myself):
- Webflow
- Tailwind Plus
Looking forward to when my MRR can afford a few more marketing tools to this list :)

Made a new site w/ a new .com domain, it starts ranking within days for 10s of keywords🤔
Turns out it is an aged domain, someone has owned it from 2004-2021 (src: internet archive) and was trying to sell it for years before seemingly give up, right before i bought it in 2025 for a normal price.

Total productivity loss today as my toddler cried himself out of nap & my wife is under the weather.
Beyond the initial 5mins of mental shutdown🫠, I’ve come to take it as a bless that I can help out & calm this little human; while soldier on for tomorrow despite the step back today.
