The "NEVER MENTION MALAYSIA" omerta is so thorough even the map portion of this video cuts off before the cursor could land anywhere this side of the Malacca Straits lmaoooooooo
Orang Malaysia buat hal lagi di China. Kali ni kes laki bini order barang daripada supplier China dan hantar ke hotel. Lepas tu mereka lari balik Malaysia tanpa buat bayaran 7800 yuan atau lebih kurang RM 4763. Katanya duduk di Kelantan. Mohon semua cari laki bini ni.
We hired a new VP of Engineering who is obsessed with agile methodology.
He called a meeting on his first day and said we need to transition to 2-week development sprints.
He wanted daily stand-ups, retrospective boards, and continuous deployment pipelines.
He wanted us to actually write new code.
I realized immediately that he was an existential threat to my lifestyle.
I let him finish his impassioned speech about workflow velocity.
Then I stood up, walked to the whiteboard, and drew a single horizontal line.
I told him agile sprints are a localized solution for a localized mindset.
I said our infrastructure operates on a Zenith Release Cycle.
He asked what a Zenith Release Cycle was.
I told him it's a holistic, macro-stabilization framework where we observe the system in a state of prolonged stasis.
By not touching the code for 18 months, we allow the legacy dependencies to organically settle.
I told him that deploying bi-weekly updates creates micro-abrasions in our database architecture.
I used the phrase chronological data scarring.
The CEO was in the room and audibly gasped.
He told the new VP that we can't risk chronological data scarring just to satisfy a trendy tech buzzword.
The VP looked at me like I'd just invented a new color.
He was completely paralyzed by the sheer density of my fabricated jargon.
He quietly agreed to adopt the Zenith Release Cycle.
We're officially scheduled to deploy our next update in the third quarter of 2027.
I spent the rest of the afternoon buying things I don't need on Amazon.
Agile is a disease invented by people who want to be punished for their salary.
I refuse to participate in my own suffering.
The funniest part of JD Vance’s speech is the ending:
“I am angry about the rise of China… but I am most angry that American leadership let it happen.”
Let it happen?
As if China’s rise was an American clerical error.
As if 1.4 billion people industrialized because Washington forgot to lock the door.
China was sanctioned, contained, smeared, tariffed, and technologically strangled.
And still it became the world’s strongest industrial economy.
India had the population.
India had English.
India had earlier access to the WTO.
India had Western approval, “democracy” branding, and decades of geopolitical courtship.
Capital still chose China.
Factories still chose China.
Supply chains still chose China.
Why?
Because civilization is not built by flattering Washington.
It is built by infrastructure, discipline, engineers, workers, logistics, electricity, education, and state capacity.
America’s next ten years are not about competing with China.
That phase is already over.
America is now competing with India for who can disappoint capital less.
China’s real opponent was never America.
China’s real opponent is its own execution, its own discipline, its own ability to keep building without believing Western noise.
Vance is angry because China rose.
But what really humiliates him is this:
America tried to stop it.
And China rose anyway.
CHINA JUST LEAKED THE FUTURE OF WEB APPS.
Alibaba open-sourced PageAgent and 99% of SaaS founders are sleeping on this.
It's a JavaScript AI agent that lives INSIDE your webpage. Users control your entire interface with natural language.
↳ No browser extensions needed, screenshots or multi-modal LLMs, headless browser setup, and also no backend rewrite required
Just drop it in your HTML with ONE line of code. What took 20 clicks now takes one sentence.
"Click login, fill in my credentials, submit the form"
Done. This is not a demo, it is production-ready.
↳ Turn any SaaS into an AI copilot in minutes
↳ Smart form filling for ERP, CRM, admin systems
↳ Voice commands and accessibility built in
↳ Multi-page agent tasks via Chrome extension
↳ MCP server support for external control
↳ Bring your own LLM (Qwen, GPT, Claude, anything)
Every founder building AI features just got a shortcut.
Every developer manually building copilots just got replaced.
The integration looks like this:

That's it. Your app now has an AI agent.
I just learned about a concept, I can't stop thinking about.
The Four Burner Theory.
It destroyed Elon Musk's first marriage.
It explains why Bezos is jacked but divorced.
And why Zuckerberg has no real friends.
Once you understand it, your life will never be same:🧵
Microservices should talk to each other only via queues. If a microservice failure leads to your system failure, you’re doing it wrong.
If you don’t have the skills to design such a system, make a monolith.
And if you can’t design a scalable monolith, read a fucking book.
I just moved my Codex / Claude Code agents from local to my linux VPS.
This is one of the biggest 10x dev upgrades I’ve made.
Heres why you should TOO, and HOW:
1. Performance
-This is the biggest one, my mac would constantly be overloaded. Work trees, multiple codex / Claude sessions, APIs.
-Now I SSH into the VPS and run everything there. All my mac does is display.
-All the processing and work now happens on my VPS,
1. Cost,
-Instead of going to buy a £3k+ Mac just so i can run more Agentic workflows, I just rent serious Linux compute monthly, that can easily scale.
- I bought 12 AMD vCPU / 24GB RAM. This is enough to run agents, builds, APIs, tmux sessions, and dev servers without any issues.
-Note that prices have 2.5x in last two months, so quicker you lock in, the better.
3. Persistence,
-This is the underrated part. When my Mac dies, closes, disconnects, Codex just keeps running. Smoothly too.
-Tmux + SSH means Codex can continue on the VPS while my laptop is off.
4. Cleaner workflow,
-Mac ->SSH / Remote
-VPS ->Codex, Claude, builds, tests, APIs
-Cmux ->manage the agent sessions
-GitHub ->source of truth
-Production ->separate protected deploy target
5. Setup is simple
You can literally just ask codex to do it for you, its that simple.

2.Use Ubuntu 24.04.
3.Add your SSH key.
4.SSH from your Mac.
5.Install git/node/pnpm/docker/tmux/cmux.
6.Clone your repo on the VPS.
7.Use VS Code Remote SSH or Codex remote connection.

Forward ports for localhost testing.
Codex app works fine, VS Code, but CMUX is the best one for this typa workflow.
My favorite line from Atomic Habits has been living in my head rent-free:
“It doesn’t make sense to continue wanting something if you’re not willing to do what it takes to get it. If you don’t want to live the lifestyle, then release yourself from the desire. To crave the result but not the process is to guarantee disappointment.”
🚨Real-life Disney princess behaviour.
This girl has gone viral for walking around with a civet in her arms while a porcupine trots beside her like a loyal dog.
Seems many foreign tourists have discovered this beautiful hidden corner that most Chinese people don't even know exists.
It's actually a cliff hotel & cafe in Tiger Leap Gorge, one of the world's top 10 hiking routes. The massive floor-to-ceiling window is the best part.
If you don't wake up excited and go to bed tired, drop everything and think of what your future will look like if you keep repeating the same day for the rest of your life. Sit with that discomfort until a new direction appears.
High cortisol is the real reason you wake up at 3-4 AM.
It also shaves 5 years off your life — tanks testosterone, locks belly fat, literally shrinks your brain.
If I wanted to fix it without medication, here are 8 things I'd do every day:
1. No food 3 hours before bed.
Alhamdullilah, OSINT of Malaysia finally out. The content here is unique compared to the startme so feel free to check em out.
Another step foward for Malaysian OSINT scene 🇲🇾
