Checklist of 'How to Win Friends and Influence People'
This is a
checklist
of the advice given by Dale Carnegie in his famous book, ‘How to Win Friends and Influence People’. The book starts with three general principles followed by more practical advice. Although, the whole idea of being nice to others, considering their opinion (etc..) is quite simple in theory, it is not our first instinct and it is hard to put into practice. So I thought of making a
short checklist
to regularly refresh our minds could be beneficial to all.

Antifragile: Why AI fails and alternative
We all want to
predict
the future. Once we know what will happen, we can prepare and take advantage of the situation and become stronger. For example, if you know which stock will go up/down, you would make a lot of money. The ability to predict is the foundation of science: experiment to find

Compiling Linux Kernel with Clang
Hi everyone. This is my first ‘technical’ blog post. I saw some people saying it helps growing your explanation skills which I sincerely lack. Thus, I decided next I struggle doing something because I feel it’s quite undocumented, I’ll try to make a post and explain how I did it. If even one person reads this and it’s even remotely useful to them, I’ll consider the job done. Ask any question, I’ll be happy to answer.
