How to prevent robots from taking over the world.

December 30th, 2008 by admin

After watching countless number of movies such as Matrix, iRobot and Eagle Eye the theme of Robots taking over the world someday is a reoccurring one, one that sometimes looks inevitable. The advances in Artificial Intelligence and the human races perseverance to keep making life simpler for ourselves is only going to drive us to create beings as intelligent or more intelligent than we are, these beings have no choice but to take control of the planet after they see how we are destroying the world and keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again.

Kanye West just loves to sample

December 3rd, 2008 by admin

So a friend of mine sent me this video below showing most of Kanye’s songs and where he got/stole the beats from. After watching the video and reading the comments, people were calling my man Kanye a swagger jacker. I mean what is that all about. This dude is a top class producer that knows good music, samples it, tweaks it and gives us something we love to hear. The best way to flatter another artist is to use his or her work in yours and in that sense Kanye is a smooth talker. It was striking how many songs he has sampled but what the hell go buy his new album 808’s and Heartbreak. Its some good stuff as my friend Ekeh would say, it is that legal coke.

Where does inspiration come from?

November 29th, 2008 by admin

I read and watch information a lot. There are few times, very few special times where I see someone explain a way they behave or think that wants to make me cry. I want to cry because they explain me, they explain something I do (That they also do) in such a way it touches me deeply because they could not have explained it any better. They explain it perfectly.

Isaac Mizrahi is an American Fashion Designer who influences/affects your life more than you know. He does high end designs for TV (many things you might have seen) and also designs custom merchandise for Target ( I have an Isaac Mizrahi designed cups and plates from Target maybe you have some other things too). He was invited to TED and gave a presentation which blew me away.

Aquiring world peace in 24 hours

November 26th, 2008 by admin

Stage and Alien invasion!

The biggest problem in acquiring world peace is the fact that we all see the world in different ways. When these perspectives clash that’s when we have disagreements, arguments and wars. Secondly we are too self absorbed, because we feel we are the only ones in the universe, we have no other enemies but ourselves. We have no one to point fingers at for our downfall or problems but ourselves (humans) so it is only natural for us to pick a fight with people who have a different view, culture, look or behavior from us. But trust me if there we were aware of another intelligent species hostile preferably. That are capable of driving cars like us, communicate with each other like we do and maybe even crank that soulja boy like we do. People from all race and class will unite cause a new set of bad guys in town and Al Qeada will be the least of our worries.

If I was a Superhero I would be…

November 18th, 2008 by admin

Ever since I was little I have always wanted to be a Superhero. I am still up for volunteering for science experiments that could potentially give me super powers. Besides the obvious power and leaving people stunned with a WTF! expression, I will like to save good people from bad people.

I have always been a Spiderman fan, that was the first Superhero I was infatuated with, I picked him over stronger superheroes like Superman (Who was my first love until he was stolen) because of his weaknesses, he was more believable, he could die and he needed wit and intelligence mixed with his powers to stay alive so everyday will be an adventure. The Spiderman 3 movie just KILLED all my fantasies when they decided to make Peter Parker into a p@$$y!

Becoming a rocknrolla

November 3rd, 2008 by admin

Saturday evening I rolled out to the movies with the boys. This was the first movie I have seen (in a theater) since I came back from New Hampshire (Your boy has been mad busy). The consensus was to see the new Guy Ritchie movie RocknRolla. I was skeptical, I have seen a couple of trailers and although it seemed like a decent action movie I would want to see I was not sure if it was worth my ten bucks, well to get straight to the point it was worth it.

Book Lust

October 28th, 2008 by admin

I was just in Barnes and Nobles walking around, looking for a programming book that I have wanted to buy for a while now. As I walked through the store and my eye wondered. I looked at all the colorful book covers, I looked at all the titles of each book section, amazed at how every book was arranged so neatly and in order, I stood and stared. I then walked over to a section picked up a book and ran my fingers across a cover and it all came rushing back to me. The reason I have not been in a book store recently, the reason I have not picked upĀ  a book to read in a while. The reason I felt I was in a candy store as soon as I walked into the store. I love books.

Waking in dreamland

October 20th, 2008 by admin

I was talking to a friend the other day about the cool things I can do when I sleep. Things like Waking up EXACTLY when I want to without an alarm clock and how I used to be able to continue a dream from where I left off. While I was bantering away she asked me two questions that I thought were mundane at the time but have occupied my mind for many hours after that conversation, leading up to this post.

Engineering Life

September 16th, 2008 by admin

I was listening to Rihanna the other day on the radio and her hit song umbrella came to mind. I remembered reading that she did not write the song and she was even skeptical about the “ella – ella” chant which made the song famous because she felt it might be too cheesy.
