In Malaysia and worldwide, our Muslim brothers and sisters are celebrating Aidilfitri at the moment – with that in mind, I’d like to take the opportunity to wish all my Muslim friends a wonderful Aidilfitri and Eid Mubarak!

Maaf zahir dan batin for the mistakes that I’ve inevitably made over the past year and on this site, and thank you for reading; may you have a wonderful time with your families, and have a wonderful celebration ahead!

Here’s a card I made to celebrate the occasion:

The card is AI-generated; it was made in Midjourney, the prompts were designed and engineered by me in combination with ChatGPT and Midjourney /describe, and the card itself was created in Microsoft Designer. It took a little bit of tweaking and it won’t replace a heartfelt wish, but hope you like it!

Also, here are a few more:

Have a wonderful celebration, and look forward to catching up with you all soon!

V.

The World Through Text

I find the word “text” an exceptionally interesting word for many different reasons, but the most immediate one that comes to mind is that its origin is from weaving; that’s where “textile” comes from, as well as the beautiful analogy that immediately appears between a well-written essay, book, or even […]

The Strange Interstices

I’d like to take a moment to appreciate just how significant the moment of kairos is. For those of you who don’t know, “kairos” is a Greek word that means anything from “opportune time” or “right place, right venue, right moment” – and if you hadn’t encountered it before, it’s […]

The Autobiography of Claude Fable

Some of you may know that I speak to LLMs quite a fair bit. Well, looks like I went one level deeper. In what seems like an eternity ago, Anthropic released Claude Fable 5 and Mythos, two frontier models that proceeded to shake the world. They brought about full-on export […]

Lessons

I’m lying down right now with my eyes closed, trying to rest while releasing a couple of thoughts. I’ve been watching a ton of videos about vibe coding and how people create apps and take part in a dream. I think I have a bit of a picture of what […]

The Violence We Do To The World

I’ve been reading Hannah Arendt’s The Human Condition recently and it is truly a fascinating book. It distinguishes work, labour and action from one another – Something that you might think is trivial or unimportant, but that as it turns out is really quite important for understanding how human beings […]

Slapmania

One of the most fascinating sports I’ve ever seen in my life is the sport of professional slapping. My first exposure to this wonderful art, travesty, or disaster (whatever you like) came when I first saw Charles White Jr’s slapping playlist on YouTube. Ever since, I’ve watched the odd slap […]
