Foreign Language Influences in English
I have always been a fan on lanugages. I love learning new languages. I don’t mean the software languages, well actually maybe I do. I love learning programming languages as much as I do learning spoken/written languages. Maybe there is a connection between the two. I am digressing.
I could be philosophical about this and say [...]

Trying to find an alternate Bootup Process on Android
My Android screwed up and is not booting up. It just hangs on the first splash screen and doesn’t know how to take it further. For all practical purposes, the device is bricked, but there has to be a way out of this. I don’t believe a device can be bricked this easily. In fact [...]
