Keeping those neurons entertained with life's meaningless quests

25/06/2024 A day's recap

A start to the blogging journey. I do keep track of things in life but it has only been with me. Somehow I feel when you track things you get to see how things span out otherwise you just forget things(low cache memory)

I plan to share things I observe, watch, read, listen.

Watching the euros currently, the Netherlands vs Austria match was amazing. Full of goals, an end to end game. Austria are a dark horse in this Euro. A player would stood out for me is Nicolas Seiwald I really like midfielders who get work done in background. He was amazing passes, tackles. One to watch out for in future. I should watch some of his last season matches on footballia.net.

Code, finally completed this video by tscoding Search Engine in Rust Ep 1. Implemented it in python. Learnt so many things while doing this,

This series tries to build a local search engine which provides search in xml files(for now). Lets try to complete the full series and see how it goes. I am planning to extend this (if possible) to markdown files that contains book highlights(more on this later..)

Added search functionality to the wear item tracker that I have in local. The API based flow has too many steps right now. Thinking of simplifying it through UI or cli. Will think on this further.

Read, almost done with the book Genius Makers learnt many things out of it. A bit slow in between but a good book which helped to learn and understand some things better. Might put up a blog on it once I am done. I usually highlight a lot in the book so I may just share those highlights or structure it.

Music, stumbled onto Nujabes. Wow amazing tracks will listen more of it going forward.

To Watch. Need to watch this anime, Samurai Champloo

Watch, more football Amazing comp from Crystal Palace. Every pass, tackle for a player!! Adam Wharton Will watch more matches of him. My type of player. One thing I observed is his quick short forward passes. Reminds me of Xabi Alonso also doing the same. Doesn't take much time just gets the forward pass done let the creative player have that extra second when they receive the pass.

Travel series, Krabi Thailand by Bags Packed Family completed the last few videos of this. Good series with lots of inputs on how to plan a simple itinerary in and around Krabi. Would want to visit Krabi again and follow this plan.

And finally, the planning for Bali trip. Uluwatu video Noted down:

Nice spots in Uluwatu. Got to know that you can also get a policy escort when you travel in Bali to save time in traffic :D

Also found this surf club Kima Surf in Bali and Sri Lanka.
