It has been several weeks since I have completed the main Monster Hunter Rise quest line. That is, all of the elder dragon quests starting from Wind Serpent Ibushi, Narwa The Allmother up to Crimson Glow Valstrax. That last one is surely one big and mean dragon. He is one of the more annoying dragons…
Cagayan de Oro ( < 2006 ) My home town 🏡 💙. Cagayan de Oro (CDO) is one of the more peaceful + prosperous cities in the Philippines. This place is fondly called the City of Golden Friendship. She sits in the northern part of Mindanao, and acts as a hub linking other surrounding smaller…
Java Beans are eagerly created in Spring Boot applications by default. That includes dependency beans. This is something I need to remember always. I tend to forget it and take it for granted since Spring Boot is great at spoiling Java developers. While that is a boon in most times, it can easily become a…
Just recently I have been playing around with multiple active profiles. This is apart from having the main application config, plus the profile that matches the environment on which the application is running. That is quite commonplace. Instead I’m talking more of an additional profile that gets activated aside from the environment profile based on…
Nintendo Switch‘s Send to Smartphone feature as a way to share screenshots and videos from Album to smartphone keeps on failing to connect. 🙅 I don’t know why. I must have tried this three or four times, but each time it would fail to work. This sucks! 🙄 I have a Samsung A52 phone with…

Had a day of relaxation at the beach last weekend – Sunday, November 21. This was at a beach resort at one of the southern tips of Batangas. It’s in the title by the way. About a two and a half hour drive from Metro Manila. Make that three with short stops in between. Was…
What is this outdated notification? The quick answer is that it is a warning text shown somewhere on the web page that says the article was written on – insert old date here – and the information in the content may be out of date. This may be kind of redundant when your article has…
How indeed? By simply attending Amazon Web Services (AWS) events. That’s it? Yes! No hacks. No scams. Nothing shady. 100% legit. Once I completed the event and a few requirements, AWS gave me credits. These AWS Credits can then be redeemed and used for their products and services. For my needs it pretty much takes…
And this is for Linux only. There is no short way to do this. It is not supported directly through the AWS Console where I can just push buttons and click away. It took SSH-ing to my Linux server. Typing in some terminal commands. Starting/stopping my EC2 instance a couple of times. However, it is…
