Lately

She can tell me she hasn’t read any of my blogs or posts – as long as she tells me one day she plans to see them all.

Lately I feel like the past I left in my fast life is catching up with me. I freeze frame every moment, every second- like I did a crime that left me to be haunted by the ghosts of our pasts. I did not know what I had till I lost it, but I have realized that I didn’t give her everything- I made her my everything. Home is where the heart is, talk about being homeless.

It’s funny to think of it all- how she would always complain; being sad that she was a hopeless romantic. Now you leave me a hopeful cynic- up to now you confuse my thoughts and words. But it’s like the moment I saw my mother cry; I stood up and realized I had a massive deadline of goals. I hate the fact that my mom still has to work when I promised her better days when we left him. Maybe it’s the pressure for success but no man on this earth is born Mr. Right. I’d rather make mistakes than to fake perfection. Truth is- since she left, they all became the same. Seems we both avoided going through what we could have gone through together. Love is like a kaleidoscope – she shone so bright she left me blinded. I still got proof of our past, like parking tickets- tell your man not to try find me. Now my name and love in the same sentence sound like a tongue twister, is that the definition of leaving someone speechless?


I don’t hate him. Like medicine; what I went through was necessary. Seems I’m always tempted to blame him for any wrong I see in me. I got his temper without the bottle. I’m hooked on words- guess that’s why I feel like all I say is a chorus. I’m done always speaking; now I will act like I’m from Hollywood. I can’t be a skydiver when I’m flying to the moon. Guess I must be blunt and lay it out in the open, can we say that’s pointless?

Making money with the falling rand: Lessons from Zimbabwe

It is no secret that the rand is falling like there is no tomorrow. This year alone it has fallen by over 18%. And if you look closely, at the last 3 years- it has fallen by 35%! This is not neglecting the economic setup where the slightest thing leads to ‘ toi toi. ' This trend of continuous striking and pay rate increase bargains has created such a vicious cycle. Prices rise, people strike, economy starts going through stuff. And we back at square one. We all know for sure that this cycle is bad. Zimbabwe and South Africa might not be different soon, only difference being that Zimbabwe chased the farmers, South Africa is chasing stabilisation. (Maybe the paradox of thrift  (prompted by the large population) will save them! Hope so.) In Zimbabwe 2008, a lot of people made a lot of money from ‘burning money’. This was whereby people took advantage of the bank rate versus the ‘streets’ rate of forex. The streets rate for forex was lower than the bank rate. Problem wa...

Gentlest introduction : The Cloud

How it began To me the concept of cloud started when people began virtualizing their systems using the like of Virtual-box and VMware. What bough this a;long was the evolution/advent of technology which made it possible for software so simulate hardware. Originally software could not simulate hardware drivers but the moment that became possible- virtualization was born. A few years after- companies started offering this virtualization at a much grander scale and Infrastructure as a service was born. Lets get down to the three cloud components namely: Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS) This outsourced hardware meaning that one noways noes not need to setup servers, air-con and the like of access control but could 'rent' from someone and one of the great things about this was that a backup not only meant software but also meant hardware (as software could now simulate hardware) so recovery in case of disaster became easier. Platform as a Service (PAAS) This is ...

Deploy Django app online for free!

So after a number of lines of code, brilliance and dreaming. Your next dream is for the world to see. Of course you can walk around with your computer and doing a 'manage.py runserver' But cumon guys, lets embrace the cloud. Not like this guy though! I choose to deploy on  PythonAnywhere . So you ask why? 1) Free amazing support - You actually talk to a live human ! 2) Easy - Very easy 3) Affordable - As you scale up, it gets way better! So by now I assume you are already on a version control system (So I will not waste much energy on that one). Maybe Ill someday write on my two favs  Github  and  Bitbucket . STEP 1: Create an account on pythonanywhere. Kindly note that your username will be included in your apps url. So it will be like : " yourUsername .pythonanywhere.com" STEP 2: Select other and set a bash console. STEP 3: Push your code from version control This will push from (in my example) github to your pythonanywhere. You...
