Who I am

  • Speak my mind without being politically correct

    I am not afraid of being hated by so many people. In fact, if I hurt your feelings, that is my pleasure. I want to be honest, and I need to pay the price. Think of my writings like this: "Why does this guy write like this?" Wrong is wrong. Let's learn to say things as is!

  • Accessibility is more important than beauty

    Doing better job does not always mean developing spectacular design. I prefer simple interfaces over complicated ones. If a website is elegant but people are struggling to use it, it is just garbage.

  • Write about real problems with real solutions

    We want to live in a better world. But the current world is bad. It has lots of problems. I write about them. I ensure that my articles give solutions.

  • Christianity is what I believe and what I preach

    The content on this website is influenced by Christ's teachings, for sure. I am a Christian. While I am still alive, I want to help people with my skills at the maximum level.

  4. We Pay Taxes so the Government Protects Immigrants, Not Us

    Immigrants live in a nice hotel with free wifi and free food. The government pays those with its citizens' taxes. Yet its citizens can not even afford to have a decent house.
