Say everything, blogs are everywhere

Our title is itself a book's and the first sentence, see that after the comma, is in its front flap by journalist Scott Rosenberg. Let's take some more words from it and share here. Blogging brought the Web's native character into focus---convivial, expressive, democratic. Bloggers have become the curators of our collective experience, testing out their ideas in front of a crowd and linking people in ways that broadcasts can't match. Blogs have created a new kind of public sphere--one in which we can think out loud together. The preceding paragraph is all in the book flap, front and back. It is the simplest answer if somebody is asking what a blog is, then and now. Although we see that as the magnanimous purpose of a blog which is really enticing and challenging. It adds choices and rooms for both sources and audiences without the regular prescriptive cadence.  What's common is the responsibility. Whether or not we do it via blog, print and online news, and whoever

[TW] Data and related-identifier, load tussle

Data is important in our jobs. It is the key to factual business decisions and even market innovations. The basis for policy making in many organizations, enterprises, governments and scientific pursuits.

Data fed into AIs and technical related endeavors must be handled with caution. It must be scrutinized with keen interests and attention for stakeholders' legitimate purposes and in accordance to standard necessities, actual intentions and aims.

Excesses or any hint of raggedness is to the detriment of any customer and must be taken as cue that something sinister, if not anomaly, exists in a system. To be exact, it could be a specific code, variables and functions that facilitates such data or events and what makes them skim.

Data and identifiers makes humans and their activities numbered including but not limited to UUID, DOI, SIM, ICCID, IMEI, SEID, MEID, WWN, MAC and IP addresses. They exist in varying types of computers or devices, their processors, storage and software or applications and of which they are connected to the internet.

You can further prove what's really causing the issue by doing your own experiment, how and when your load disappears especially for local mobile prepaid subscribers which has been a problem for a very long time and yet they still are a problem. In order to do your experiment, as subscriber, and that your work is plausible you need to make sure your smartphone or whatever device you use for your SIM card to enable data or connect to the internet, and that you understand what consumes your prepaid the moment you turned on your data connection, mostly, via LTE, and now 5G which is still growing.

If your load is disappearing and you haven't even turned on your data connection and that you are certain it happened not only once but it has become frequent already, take note of the details including when you buy load and when your load began to disappear.

It also happens to postpaid. The most concrete way to monitor how your telco is billing your usage is don't use your SIM at all. You will know when you are being billed properly or that some irregularity is being tolerated or it has become part of their system.

Jobs we observed in a system performance

They are made either any of the following- - Tech job, - Business job, - Nut job, or - Enterprise job. What's yours? Can you do it better from your existing drive? Whatever you do, your output should facilitate not just your organization's goal but a little more than what you originally planned. Leaders usually kept them in the mind, so subtle only them knows it, but with some useful and delicate strategies employed people really are doing a good job, and working to improve them, too. That's the beginning why corporate social responsibility, or even the consequential environmental, social and governance initiatives can be a potent move to do something, if pertinent or weighty is even the right word. That doesn't need an ostentatious resources but the effect is meaningful for stakeholders, everyone we meant.

Philippine telcos blocking entire SMS text with internet addresses in it

If you are sending SMS texts to your friends, family or colleagues and they contain internet or web address including IP and email addresses, and even a period or dot separating, regardless of, your words and numbers, they are automatically blocked and not going to be received by your waiting recipient. Cooler heads must prevail here especially if an important message is urgently being expected. IP version 6 address is fine. However, an IPv4 including localhost address (given automatically to every computers and network interfaces as their own alone designed for troubleshooting purposes), and your money in the billion figure using dot as separators would be blocked.  If you send "local.business, naman.naman etcetera" or any words that made you use dot in between them, as part of the text, they will be blocked. There are some, that isn't blocked in this category. Like check.iclassed, some.ent, whatever.local etcetera, that is because they do not form any domain name at all

How functional and secure AES is

How functional and secure AES is? The Philippine electorate will once again go to polls and decide who will lead the nation in the next six years of their lives. This important event which will elect new president, vice president and 12 senators for national posts, and seats are also being contested for provincial, city and municipal levels, is expected to be counted unofficially in 24 hours, concluded or canvassed officially in a few days or so but authorities and observers expected it to be done in less than a week. Last presidential election, it was known three days after close of election precincts. This is especially true for nation states, not only the Philippines, that conducts their elections using automated election or computerized-and-networked voting systems. In PH, the past automated elections were encumbered with technical issues and fraudulent results, uttered and written everywhere by many concerned and affected individuals and institutions alike. This time, we could say
