I have to look at my python studies as my job. Getting to a point of producing performant code requires dedication that I will meet. I need to work harder and code everyday. I am desperate living below the poverty line with a glut of time to focus on Python3. I was motivated to learn more about programming so I would not be a skid anymore. I feel like I am headed for skid row if I don't turn the boat around. I have been to skid row in LA which is next door to Little Tokyo. The sight of the desperation motivates me to take a keen interest in python. People will steal everything from you on skid row down to your shoes when you sleep. It is a pit of hell where everyone is pulling each other down and there is no way out. I cannot fail. I will dedicate 2024 to rigorous studies in data structures and algorithms in python and build something, anything and code code code.

Knowing how to pivot is important in OSINT it seems and to go from a wide scope to a narrower scope. Pivot charts are useful to collect information of results from selectors, each pivot being a resultant node of information. Going from a wide search to a narrower search is like the goldilock's effect, a little too wide and you lose focus but too focused you can lose out on other wider details. All sources state that methdology trumps tools and the focus early on in an OSINT career is to develop your methodology like knowing how to pivot and knowing the intelligence cycle. Being nimble and flexible in your search queries is important to hone your searches using Google as a primary tool to locate information. You just have to Google it. You Google to find tools like websites that facilitate investigations. It seems that Rae Baker, the author of Deep Dive into OSINT, is adept at using Google to serve her needs though she stresses the importance of methodology. Cynthia Hetherington of ...

Being in California I have seen plaques from the native sons of the golden west and thought nothing about them at the Burlingame train station. They seemed like a benign fraternity but if you dig a little deeper into their history you realize they were like California's KKK chapter against the Japanese. They really hated the Japanese and wanted to expel them from California as if the Japanese were vermin in the early 20th century. Native sons of the golden west go way back into the 1800's and their anti-japanese stance existed at the moment it seems that Japanese immigrants arrived in the late 1800's. They wanted to end birth right citizenship for Japanese Americans who were born in America. This echoes today with Republicans questioning birth right citizenship and considering getting rid of it. The hostilities towards Japanese immigrants resonants today with the attack on the newly arrived Latinx immigrants. The zenophobia is always an old trope that seems to never end wit...

My learning methods are flawed. I am not doing spaced retrieval exercises which is supposedly the most effective means of learning. Spacing out what you retrieve from memory of your reading is time tested the best way. I tend to read and reread which is ineffective and I don't force myself to sit away from the text and try to remember everything I have just read. It is like dyeing cloth. You dip the cloth in the dye over and over again and the coloration gets more and more saturated and radiant. Spacing the time you remember what you have learned repeatedly ,spaced repetition, is important and I have to practice this more.
