  • Stoner by John Williams

    I recently finished Stoner by John Williams. It’s a very linear narrative about a man lives in the first half of the 20th century. I listened to it as an audiobook so for most of the time, this book felt like a simple story and it didn’t have much behind it. But about 2/3rd of […]

  • 2020, bad juju, broken sleep schedules, and the moonshadow

    I’ve been having a hard time writing lately. My blogging is pretty sparse and that’s been a pattern for years now but I’ve also stopped writing on paper, on my iPad, in random note taking apps like notion and iA Writer. The amount of writing I do now is non-existent compared to any previous year. […]

  • Spooky season vibes

    This is the first year, in almost a decade, that I am living in a “normal” seasonal city. Not as normal as the east coast but definitely more than San Francisco. The summer was hot and the recent few weeks have started cool down and really feel like fall. Being in a house, we’ve also […]

  • Interesting time standards

    I’ve recently been interested in time standards like the local time e.g. Pacific Daylight Time and general times. And I saw a comment somewhere either on reddit or hacker news about how times would work in places not on Earth, like the moon. I came across Barycentric Coordinate Time which is a time standard that […]

  • Status updates on Twitter

    I never got used to the early versions of Twitter where people posted status updates. And then slowly, Twitter shifted to a news/social outlet and that became even stranger for me. I’m thinking about how this blog can work as a status update place. Or do I even need to post status updates?? 🤔

  • The Sky naming scheme

    I wanted to share my naming scheme for my devices. I was bored by the basic “Muhammad’s iPhone” and “Muhammad’s 4th MacBook Pro” names so I wanted to come up with something a bit more interesting. At first, I tried something like the names of planets but it became pretty limiting and was also very […]

  • Self-knowledge

    I just finished reading “Self-Knowledge” from The School of Life. It’s a simple book and I’ve used it as a meditative practice. Sit down for 10-15 minutes, read and reflect on the topics. It covers various parts of our emotional life that translate, sometimes incorrect, into actions we take in day to day life. I […]

  • My recent interests

    Being at home has given me a lot of extra time to try new things and do things I didn’t really have time to do before. Not all the things have been very positive or productive but hey, there’s a global pandemic going on, anything to keep me inside is a good thing. Video games […]

  • Naps

    It’s been hot the past few days. Around 100ºF in Oakland and it feels new to me. Being in the middle of summer, always being home, and having a lot of chill music playing in the background has made me want to just nap at least once a day now.

  • Summer during the lockdown

    I can’t believe it’s July already. There are so many people infected with coronavirus, it’s hard for me to understand just how many people’s lives are impacted, gone, or drastically changed because of this. I don’t know how summers of the past have been in Oakland but this one is quiet and boring. But I […]
