Became the vice head boy of my school. Trying to the best job I can. Also, environment club work (head of events) and another project (summary for that will come in May 2023)
Much smoother, in a way.
Still a bit left, but got the video fixed (yay!)
All done (soon).
Nearly (or fully?) done with a lot of smaller projects for this.
Got a lot of work done for both projects. Really happy!
Cameraman, anyone? Also, won best speaker for a motion in a debate, and lot's of environment work.

Had a productive meeting for event in May.
Top 6 now - also need to get better videos tomorrow...
Compiled the top 8. Waiting for results (+ more democracy!). Also, (a pretty fun but productive) meeting for event in May.
Colour - so trivial yet so important. Also, all applications are now sorted (EC)
Worked on compiling designs and setting up voting, and also contacted someone.
Summary of Environment Club (EC) Work: Will merge this log with this one. After my student council work in 11th, I mostly just had meetings, an application form for this academic year (which I finished) and a run!
Did some organisational work.
Finished initial organising work and informed a section of the council about an upcoming task.

I think cold emails are an incredibly powerful tool that must be used responsibly. Before this, I thought that I was the "king of cold emails", as it led to the Effective Altruism Data and LPP project. However, I got dethroned when someone cold emailed after seeing this EA Forum question that I wrote quite some time back.
What was originally me being pessimistic about re-starting EA Dubai led to meetings with EA AUS, EA NYUAD and even an advisor from CEA! So far, we've gotten some EA AUS and EA NYUAD members to join us - and we're on the look out for someone else to help lead this project with us! I'm really excited to see where this project is after exactly half a year (July 14, 2023)!

I got accepted to beta read Holden Karnofsky's articles for his blog, Cold Takes. Trying to be as useful as I can be! Note that I only update this log when I fully finish proof-reading and when the post has been published. Currently an occasional project.
Finished my eighth proof-reading. The link to the post will be here once done.
Finished my seventh proof-reading (possibly my last for this year - so grateful to have been a part of this). The link to the post will be here once done.
Finished my sixth proof-reading (although I unfortunately missed the deadline by a bit). The link to the post will be here once done.
Finished my fifth proof-reading. The link to the post will be here once done.
Along with other beta-readers, I got appreciated in the latest Cold Takes post!
Been a while, but finished my fourth proof-reading. The link to the post will be here once done.
Finished my third proof-reading. The link to the blog post will be here once done.
Finished my second proof-reading. The link to the blog post will be here once done.
Got accepted (!) and finished proof-reading. The link to the blog post will be here when it's done (for privacy reasons).

Trying to co-run the second edition of a logic, rationality and Effective Altruism club that I co-founded. Currently inactive/paused.
Did some organisational work.
Did some organisational work.
Sent out my three capstone project reviews.
Had the last meeting for a while, thus marking the end of this project (for now!)
Scheduled the last meeting for a while.
Finished reviewing two more capstone projects.
Reviewed the first capstone project.
Received capstone projects. Closing ceremony will be delayed but for now, will host an online meeting to discuss the projects.
In discussion regarding the closing ceremony.
In discussion regarding the closing ceremony.
Did some more organisational work, held the last (technically fourth) day and sent out the capstone project submission form!
Did some organisational work.
Did some organisational work.
Did some organisational work.
Did some organisational work.
Did some more organisational work. Here's to this project becoming even more ambitious in 2023!
Did some organisational work in the morning, but I couldn't teach today's class due to internet issues. We'll be combining this session and the last day (which I feel is something we should do regardless).
An okay third day, but this part of the syllabus really needs to be re-vamped.
Second day went better than the first: espicially since we had really good debate responses and rebuttals.
First day! Along with my co-facilitator, we gave a good overview about rationality.
Aug 02, 2022-present
Trying to get better every day and have some fun as well. Currently inactive/paused.
Sort of messed around for a bit.
Played Fever by The Black Keys.
Played I Want to Break Free by Queen.
Finished learning Back in Black by AC/DC. The snare-kick-hi-hat pattern was the only thing I had to get down.
Played Back in Black by AC/DC.
Played Yellow by Coldplay.

Trying to get better at chess via practicing on lichess. You can see all my games that I refer to here. Previously, I practiced on chess.com. Currently inactive.
Oops.
Good game! (I mean, it was barely passable at my end, but it was fun nonetheless)
Hmm.
This is, probably by a lot, the most surprising checkmate I've received.
Sigh.
Decided to play sort of fast and loose with this game, turns out I was too fast and loose.
I'm very angry with myself over this game.
I hate unexpected checkmates.
Interesting game, made a lot of silly blunders.
An Antichess Tragedy. Will get back to regular chess tomorrow.
Rough game. I had like ~4 takebacks over move 15 lol.
Saddest game ever. I couldn't save myself at some point even with takebacks.
A good game to end of the week (even though I lost).
Anitchess! (with a lot of takebacks, I'll get back to non-variant chess tomorrow)
Sometimes even takebacks can't save you from a terrible game.
A near perfect game (but not really, also 3 takebacks)
Shockingly, only 1 blunder (though that's because it was so short lol)
Played a Chess960 game for fun.
Another Antichess game.
No clue what I was doing here.
Took me forever to checkmate with just a king and a queen, but I did it! (overall, with 1 takeback)
Defeated Stockfish Level 4 with intense focus... and like 3 takebacks lol.
Drew Stockfish Level 4 with (very roughly) 15 takebacks.
I liked this game a lot (even though I lost).
Oof.
I thought I played well in this game. Nope, 11 blunders (I also missed such an obvious check that could have potentially won the game).
Another win! (though I did takeback once)
What a way to start off the month: defeated Stockfish Level 4 without takebacks with the black pieces (only 1 blunder from my side!)
One of my shortest game ever (also drew Level 4 after a couple of takebacks).
Sigh.
I think I need to go back to Level 3.
I won using the Tennison Gambit! (note: this doesn't count towards my battle against Stockfish Level 4 lol)
Sigh.
I think this one counts, I did takeback once but it was accidental.
Another game that doesn't really count because of takebacks.
The uphill battle against Stockfish Level 4 is going to be a long one...
This WOULD have been my first win against Stockfish Level 4 if I hadn't taken back so many times in the endgame (still a fun game!)
Nice.
Sigh.
Ouch, I don't think there were any good moves at move 15 lol.
Possibly the wildest game I've ever played. I was so close to losing and then I pulled up with the promotion that made me win with the black pieces!
I need to practice with the black pieces against Stockfish Level 3. I'm fine with the white pieces.
Maybe a simple 1. e4 with good opening principles and development is all you need at this level.
No idea what I did today for chess today. I need to change my opening repertoire.
I present to you, the biggest throw ever.
I feel like Stockfish wanted to throw an April Fools' Day joke at me...
Sigh.
Not sure what I was doing today.
Stockfish Level 4 made me suffer in the last few moves. We quickly went from the best game yet to possibly the worst game yet lol.
My best game yet with the King's Indian Setup, no blunders and I never lost the advantage + didn't lose a forced checkmate sequence lol. Played a few other King's Indian Setups as well (1, 2)
I threw away a game so badly that I'm actually disappointed in myself. At least the King's Indian Setup has proven its worth to me with the white pieces.
I think this will be my opening repertoire: black pieces with e4 will be the Caro-Kann Defense and anything else (white or black pieces) will mean the King's Indian Setup (need to study this one).
This game definitely doesn't count (took back a lot of blunders) but it was so calming to checkmate my opponent with three queens while listening to Pentatonic.
Explored the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit (also this game doesn't count as a win because I used so many takebacks lol)
I was trying out the Italian Game and I got this gem of a game, so I guess my opening with the white pieces is now the Italian Game? Need to study it for some time.
My best worst game ever. I thought I was being smart with the pawn promotion sacrifice but nope.
Haha! Pawn to knight promotion leads to checkmate (Note: I did do a couple of take backs).
Yeah, that game didn't go too well... Also played a few random games against bots for fun.
Started learning the Giuoco Piano opening and I got pretty far with it against Stockfish Level 3.
Lost against my classmate after exchange variation. I thought move 22 was sort of smart but nope it was a blunder lol.
This is most definitely the best game I've ever played so far. Only one blunder with the Caro-Kann exchange variation and man was the endgame fun.
Just sort of fooled around a bit. Second game wasn't too horrible (but I had no idea how to continue), 1, 2.
Stockfish Level 2 is too easy and level 3 is too "meh" (can sometimes win if I'm focused) and I've noticed that very low rated bots just give up their queens sometimes.
Resigned after losing my queen, though I performed a "push" variation of the Caro-Kann without referring back to the video!
Lost that game and played my most humiliating game yet.
Started an interesting exchange variation, I have no idea where to go from here.
Finished yesterday's game, did not go well.
Started a really interesting game after the classical variation.
Continued learning the advanced variation.
Continued learning the advanced variation.
This one is just funny, got checkmated in 20 moves lol.
Learnt some lines against the Fanatasy Caro-Kann variation.
This may be the angriest I've been with myself over a chess game. Two major blunders from a Caro-Kann opening.
Continued with the Caro-Kann Defense.
Continued with the Caro-Kann Defense.
Continued with the Caro-Kann Defense.
Continued with the Caro-Kann Defense.
Started learning the Caro-Kann Defense via GothamChess and (sort of) played it against Stockfish Level 1.
For fun, I played against Stockfish Level 4 twice (1, 2). Will learn an opening tomorrow and practice it against Level 3 and 4.
Finished with Knight & Bishop Mate, which means I've finished the whole practice section!
Finished with 7th Rank Rook Pawn (Passive)!
Started with 7th Rank Rook Pawn (Passive).
Finished with 7th Rank Rook Pawn!
Continued with 7th Rank Rook Pawn. Will be done with this tomorrow!

Finished with Discovered Attacks.
Started with Discovered Attacks.
Finished The Fork! Will start Discovered Attacks tomorrow.
Continued with The Fork.
Started with The Fork.
Going to actually practice chess by learning theory and finishing my practice on lichess (+ doing a puzzle every day starting from tomorrow). Finished learning about skewers.
Lost two games (1, 2), one against Stockfish Level 4 and against a person in rapid.
I HAD TWO QUEENS AND I STILL STALEMATED STOCKFISH LEVEL 4! This is why there are so few grandmasters.
Resigned again in my final game against my brother.
Resigned against my brother.
Checkmated Stockfish Level 3, it shocks me how well made lichess is, all for free and open-source.
Continued my Knight & Bishop Mate lessons.
Learnt about the Greek Gift and won against my brother as black via resignation.
Lost a couple of games, but at least I beat level 3.
Lost countless number of times to bots and 2 times in Blitz, hope to see some improvement in 2022 for chess.
Lost to my brother twice in Blitz.
Stockfish Level 4 got a surprise checkmate for me as a belated Christmas gift...
Stockfish Level 4 is still out of reach, lost three games. (1, 2, 3)
Won against my brother via resignation.
Lost (badly) to Stockfish Level 4 in three games (1, 2, 3). At least I won twice against my brother.
Lost (badly) to my brother in chess.
Played 4 games against Stockfish Level 3 (1, 2, 3, 4) which resulted in 2 losses (1 checkmate and 1 resignation), a stalemate (which resulted in a facepalm) and a win!
Played 3 games against Stockfish Level 2 (1, 2, 3), I was so close to losing in the 3rd game, then the bot makes a huge, huge blunder by not taking my queen with his bishop, which led to checkmate.
Played 3 games against Stockfish Level 1 (1, 2, 3) and got checkmate in the first and last game. My revenge against Level 1 is complete.
Stalemated Level 1 again, how does this keep happening?
I am so bad at chess it's funny, I played three games (1, 2, 3) with the first being a loss to Stockfish Level 3, to boost my confidence I played against Level 1 and somehow lost and stalemated respectively.
Played two games this time (1, 2) and the second one was very interesting.
Played three games against Stockfish Level 3 and lost all three.
Checkmated Stockfish Level 2 as black!
So close to checkmating Stockfish Level 2! Alas, I stalemated.
Started with the Knight & Bishop Mate, messed up against Stockfish Level 2 and finished The Pin.
Got destroyed by Stockfish Level 2 and finished Piece Checkmates II.
Continued with Piece Checkmates II.
Started with Piece Checkmates II
Finished with Checkmate Patterns IV.
Started with Checkmate Patterns IV and had a fun game against Stockfish Level 1. Magnus might win today, but we'll see. (Edit: Draw.)
Finished Checkmate Patterns III. I smell a draw for today's match, both Magnus and Nepo will be well-rested. (Edit: I'm so sorry Nepo.)
Started with Checkmate Patterns III.
Continued with Checkmate Patterns II. I'm going to take a risk and say that Nepo wins today. Let's see if I'm right. (Edit: I was very wrong.)
Continued with Checkmate Patterns II. Magnus won the sixth game and he and Ian now have the longest game in a World Chess Championship!
Won against my dad with the black pieces via checkmate.
Started Checkmate Patterns II.
Completed Checkmate Patterns I. Pretty sure today's World Chess Championship match is going to be a draw. (Edit: I was right.)
Started with Checkmate Patterns I, what a crazy month for chess!
Finished Piece Checkmates I and got absolutely destroyed by Stockfish Level 2.
Started with Piece Checkmates I and played my first game on lichess v.s. Stockfish level 1.
Finished the "learning section" of the chess course!
Switched to lichess and started their chess course.
Damn, my game against Antonio today was incredible (even though I lost). I got 74 accuracy! Here's the game.
Completed the Value of the Pieces and had some fun learning about the Stafford Gambit
Antonio is really tough.
Antonio is tough.
Defeated Nelson with the black pieces! Here's the game.
Played 2 games with Nelson, and drew one!
Very close to winning against Nelson, but I eventually lost way too much material.
"One day Sven, one day." Well folks, that day finally came! I checkmated Sven with the black pieces!
Played several games online.
One day Sven, one day. Also played a really, really funny blitz game where my opponent only moved their king for the majority of the game.
Finished my weekly lesson.
Drew Sven due to a mouse slip. Here is the game.
Thinking about (seriously) playing online.
Had some fun with lower-rated bots.
Completed my weekly lesson. Moved away from Sven, and (for fun) I tried my hand at DanyaBot, I'm actually proud to say I only made 1 blunder (even though I lost).
I think I will put the bots on the side and try to actually study the game instead of brute-forcing it.
Same old, same old. I also had some fun analyzing games and learning the Caro-Kann. Later, I won against my dad with the black pieces via checkmate.
So close! I blundered my queen again. I'll get three crowns against Sven sooner or later.
I was so close but I blundered too many times.
1000 -> 1100 transition is tough.
Jumped around different bots. Need to defeat Sven with three crowns soon.
I played against Jimmy ~3 times, blundering my queen in the first two games, but winning in the last. Here's that last game. Later, I played two games against my dad, I think the first one was a draw? (no legal moves but not in check) and the second one was a win via resignation.
I finally defeated the pumpkin 3 days after Halloween. Here's the game. I also resigned against Sven again.
So close, but I hanged my queen accidentally.
I hate pumpkins. (Also, I completed a lesson on rook checkmates.)
Resigned against Sven for the quadrillionth time.
Tried to defeat the damn Pumpkin, was close but blundered the endgame.
Kept resigning against Sven. Later in the day, I learnt about the Scandinavian Defense and won against my dad with the white pieces via checkmate!
Kept resigning against Sven and finished the Assisted Checkmate lesson.
Sep 02, 2022-present
Trying to learn as much as I can about AI safety in this fellowship! Currently paused (tough luck honestly, cohorts that I got accepted to clashed with important exams.)
Another great session with my cohort, though I don't know if I contributed that much to the conversation.
Had a great first meeting with my cohort and did okay on the exercise questions.
Oct 29, 2021-present
Trying to learn acoustic guitar via justinguitar.com. Currently inactive/paused.
Learnt some open 7th chords.
(Tried) to learn Hey You by Pink Floyd.
Freestyled to ease back in.
Continued with Module 4 practice.
"Learnt" the intro to Chop Suey! Drop C tuning is awesome.
Practiced a sliding power chord song that was recommended to us (why do almost all of them have iffy names?)
Got started with Module 4 practice.
Finished learning an easier version of Enter Sandman.
"Finished" with the Module 5 videos (sort of just skipped a few) and will get started with the practice tomorrow.
Played an electric guitar for the first time!
Finished a short video in the module. I guess I've been less motivated to continue with this module since it's so electric guitar focused (though maybe I'm wrong and my skill is to blame here, not the acoustic)
Sort of continued with the riff.
Learnt the first part of the first part of the Enter Sandman riff.
Finished with Palm Muting and Understanding Distortion. This module is irritating if you're using an acoustic. Why do you have to be so cool, electric?.
Finished with The Am Pentatonic Scale.
Finished with Power Chords (and sort of learnt Smells Like Teen Spirit?)
Got started with Power Chords.
Six days... Finished with the second iteration of Module 4 practice.
Continued with the second iteration of Module 4 practice. I finally understood why my guitar improv is so bad: I keep trying to play odd patterns.
Continued with the second iteration of Module 4 practice.
Got started with the second iteration of Module 4 practice.
Finished with the first iteration of Module 4 practice.
Continued with the first iteration of Module 4 practice.
Got my guitar repaired!
Continued with the first iteration of Module 4 practice, will be done with it tomorrow (welp, a guitar string broke again, so I'll try my best to get back to the practice ASAP).
Finished with the Module 4 videos and got started with the first iteration of Module 4 practice. I think I'm going to increase the number of iterations to three.
Finished dice songwriting. Really fun lesson! (even though I didn't do too much lol)
Finished learning about the songs for this module (excited for the fingerstyle songs for the first iteration).
Finished some ear training, felt pretty disheartened after getting the last exercise wrong.
Had fun with this lesson.
It took roughly a week but I can finally play Happy Birthday on my own!
Hopefully I should be able to play it tomorrow...
So close to playing Happy Birthday on my own!
Continued with learning Happy Birthday, about two-thirds of the way there.
Continued with learning Happy Birthday.
Got started with learning Happy Birthday and had some fun with learning All Falls Down (I guess I've learnt it? It sounds pretty bad though).
Learnt more about fingerstyle playing.
Had fun playing How Much A Dollar Cost with these chords (simplified) (only the F#, F and Dm sounded okay lol)
Finished with shifting the F chord. The way Justin played the F chord reminded me How Much a Dollar Cost by Kendrick Lamar. I'm going to try to play that tomorrow.
Got started with Module 11 with some sus chords, I really like the transition from A sus2 to A sus4.
Finished with the second iteration of Module 10 practice!
Continued with the second iteration of Module 10 practice. Nearly done!
Continued with the second iteration of Module 10 practice.
Continued with the second iteration of Module 10 practice, I thought I forgot the C Major scale but nope, my guitar was just slightly out of tune lol.
Got started with the second iteration of Module 10 practice.
Finished with the first iteration of Module 10 practice! Also, small correction: I don't use the songbook tab on JustinGuitar.com (since it forces the song into three categories, which I don't like) and instead I just like the play-through video (which acts as a songbook).
Continued with Module 10 practice and added two songs to my songbook!
Continued with Module 10 practice, F (with bar) chord is shaping up to be pretty decent now (similar sounding to a Fmaj7) but the change from F to C is slow for me lol.
Continued with Module 10 practice and did some really bad C Major improvisation (why did I choose the thinnest string?)
Continued (?) with Module 10 practice.
Finished with the Module 10 videos and got started with the first iteration of Module 10 practice (sort of, I need to start over with the C major scale alternate picking).
Learnt some common chord progressions.
Finished with La Bamba Riff (learnt the double note variation).
Finished with Beginner Hammer-ons which are super tricky and learnt the single note variation of the La Bamba riff, which is super awesome.
Finished with The Rhythm Push and also discovered that the 11th fret of the thinnest string sounds almost exactly like the "siren" sample in Use This Gospel.
Finished with Alternate Picking C Major and Major Scale Improvisation (really excited to start guitar improv in this module's practice!)
Finished with F chord changes and feeling the frets.
Learnt about the weak finger G (which I dislike, for now...) and the A mini barre (which I kinda dig)
Finished the second iteration of Module 9 practice! Will start Module 10 tomorrow.
Continued with the second iteration of Module 9 practice.
Continued with the second iteration of Module 9 practice.
Got started with the second iteration of Module 9 practice.
Finished the first iteration of Module 9 practice, will start the second iteration tomorrow.
I did it! I learnt the C Major Scale! I leveraged the previous pattern I learnt for the note circle.
Continued with the first iteration of Module 9 practice and played One by U2.
Continued with the first iteration of Module 9 practice. Something barely impressive: I can play the C-G-D-A-Em chord transition without looking at the guitar (kind of).
Continued with the first iteration of Module 9 practice, the guitar chords Notion page is extremely handy!
Revised the Em Pentatonic Scale.
Continued with the first iteration of Module 9 practice.
Got started with the first iteration of Module 9 practice.
Finished with the Module 9 lessons, will be on the practice for some time (due to the C Major scale lol)
Finished with the Red Hot Chili Peppers riff (minus the chords, might do that for fun).
Got my guitar strings replaced, I've never heard a guitar so out of tune before lol.
It wouldn't be a JustinGuitar module without an odd finger training exercise. I was planning on finishing up the Red Hot Chili Peppers riff today (since it's pretty easy) but my D string broke :(
Finished with more advanced 16th note strumming.
Got done with compiling all the chords in a Notion page.
Changed my mind, the C Major scale got to me lol. I'll start the chord book work tomorrow.
Finished with All Stop Mute and creating a chord book (which I will do from tomorrow instead of the videos.)
Finished with learning the F chord and its variations. It honestly isn't impossible but it certainly is tricky. Maybe I'm just lucky.
Finished with the second iteration of Module 8 practice! Will start Module 9 and the dreaded F chord soon.
Continued with the second iteration of Module 8 practice, nearly done.
Continued with the second iteration of Module 8 practice.
Started with the second iteration of Module 8 practice, why does my E min7 chord sound so bad?
Finished with the first iteration of Module 8 practice! I'll start it all over again tomorrow.
Continued with Module 8 practice.
I think I'm done learning the riff! I'll check back tomorrow to see if I still remember it.
Continued with the Wish You Were Here riff.
I've been listening to Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd in preparation for finishing the riff. I guess it helped a bit? Anyways, almost finished learning the riff and just a few more items are left for the first iteration of Module 1 practice!
Continued with Module 8 practice.
Continued with Module 8 practice. I stink at Big G to D chord transitions.
Memorized all the Stuck 3&4 chords!
3 days... Anyways, I've finished with all the content and I'll start with the practice tomorrow (for real this time!), it'll probably last ~2 weeks since I'll repeat it.
Finished with the Wish You Were Here riff video, sort of got the introduction down. Will start the practice soon!
Finished with Notes in Open Position and got started with the Wish You Were Here riff, the riff is super hard!
Finished with Pick Manipulation.
Finished with All Down 8th Note Strumming, really had a lot fun today in this lesson! Strumming can sometimes be fun.
Finished with Muting Strings Deliberately.
I have no excuses for not playing guitar for 4 days. Anyways, learnt about a new exercise routine and the Open Em Pentatonic scale.
Learnt a ton of chord variations. Going to be slightly hard to remember and practice all of them :(
Finished Module 7 practice. Going to start Grade 2 (in guitar!) on the weekend.

Got started with Practical Deep Learning for Coders. Really excited!
May 12, 2023-May 14, 2023
I was a resource head for the Earth and Climate Change Council and a member of the IT team. Won best counci.l
This whole project should be prefaced by the sheer amount of work that had gone into it: from my main work as a resource head for the Earth and Climate Change council: working on the agenda document, the background guide and the video with my co-resource head and directors - as well as helping out with the website as part of the IT team.
With that being said, what an incredible event, so glad to have been (somewhat) randomly selected for ECC - I'd like to think I was a pretty darn good resource head, and won best council with my incredible directors, co-resource head, IT and press members.

Finished with the Personal Library project by intentionally leaving a test case broken :/ (here it is) Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
AAAAAAAAAA This is a really complicated situation: I wrote all the functional tests and a) Replit keeps crashing after all the tests pass (unless I do a weird port trick) b) Even though the POST
comment test case works without the tests, it refuses to pass after all the tests pass. This is probably the second or third most frustrating project I worked on (the most frustrating was probably the JavaScript calculator)
Got the comment POST
test case to pass, on to the GET
test case. Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
The comment array seems to be less broken and continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Got the delete all test case to pass and the comment array is, uh, there? (it's really broken). I also continued with beta responsive web design.

AAAAAAAAAA I finished all the tests but freeCodeCamp keeps failing the 16 units test test, it feels like I've tried everything to fixed it.
Finished those last two non-test test cases and continued with beta Responsive Web Design. I don't like how we're (to my knowledge) force to use eval for this project.
Excluding the the two test cases for the test (which I'm dreading lol), I only have two more tests! Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.

Sort of got multiple stocks to work (the query parameter if-else conditions aren't very good though), I think I can technically submit the project now, but it's obviously not complete (need to implement the like and rel_likes features)
Fixed an axios glitch where it would take two refreshes to get the stock price. Got started with two stocks and continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Progress on Stock Price Checker has been slow, why is it so hard to make a GET request in node.js?
Continued with the Stock Price Checker and Responsive Web Design.
Got started with the Stock Price Checker project and finished a project within beta Responsive Web Design!

LET'S GO I got the map all coloured in (the colour scheme is a little different, but that's fine), going to try to wrap this up in about 2 days.
Okay, colouring will be impossible if I don't use FCC's map data. Figuring out how to replace the pre-existing map data with that. Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
In the process of figuring out how to color in the map. Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Figured out the map! Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design and finished a section within it!
Still figuring out the whole map thing, though I think I found my answer. Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Got started with the map project, wondering if I can use a package to draw the US map instead of converting the data they gave into an SVG (which is too complicated). Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Finished with the heatmap project (here's the link to it)! Will start with the penultimate project tomorrow. Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
So close to submitting my heatmap project, just need another day to make the y-axis show the month name, not the number and to add text below the legend (also, figured out the legend!) and I also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Got more than half of the test cases to pass, though I still need to figure out how to make a legend. Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Made amazing progress! The heatmap is basically complete, just need to add a legend, fix the tooltip and pass the tests. I also continued with the beta Responsive Web Design.
Made good progress with the heatmap project, I got the axes set properly, it's just the squares that need work now. Also finished two projects within beta Responsive Web Design!
Sort of fixed the data issue with this less obscure website (I say sort of because the free account only has 10000 requests before it goes down, which is decent, but the tests that I run might exhaust that, not entirely sure) and continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
The same issue that came up with the bar chart project has come up again, I can't seem to find a place to store edited data. Since the FCC data is nested, it's really hard to work with, so I "unnested" it and stored it on this obscure website, but the data stored there doesn't seem to be permanent, so now I have to work on both my heatmap project and my bar chart project again.
Oh, I also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Made a bit of progress on the heat map and continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Finished the scatterplot project! Yeah, there are two test cases left, but they have the same issue as the bar chart project. Here's the project. Also got started on the Heat Map project and continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Didn't have much time today, so I could only continue the beta Responsive Web Design.
Got done with the legend, the only tests I have left relate to the annoying D3 attributes.
Again made great progress, I only have 5 test cases left to pass for my scatterplot project and continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Made amazing progress, got the whole y-axis done and added the circles for the scatterplot. Just need to get the test cases to pass.
Got the y-axis almost complete and continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Couldn't continue with my scatterplot (will try to finish it in the weekend) but I continued with beta Responsive Web Design. Someone in an EA Slack channel talked about FCC!
For some reason, it's really complicated to get minute and second formatted time on a y-axis (like this: 31:24), will continue work on it tomorrow. Also continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Got started with the scatterplot project and continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Couldn't fix that issue, but that's alright. Submitted my bar chart project! (see it here) and continued beta Responsive Web Design.
Got every test case to pass, except for one... I'll work on that tomorrow and if I can't get it, I'll just submit it. Anyways, I also continued beta Responsive Web Design.
Finished the tooltip, now I just need to pass all the test cases. Also continued the beta Responsive Web Design.
Partially added the logic for a tooltip in my bar chart project and continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Got half of the test cases to pass for my project and continued beta Responsive Web Design.
Now I made some good progress, I decided to use JSON (as it was easier to store on the web) and everything except the tooltips is done.
Wasn't able to make much progress with my bar chart project as I wasted a lot of my time trying to figure out how to host my custom data file, anyways, I continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Made good progress with my bar chart project (though the x-axis is fully destroyed) and continued with beta Responsive Web Design.
Continued with data visualization and the beta Responsive Web Design.
I'll update the 25 + 5 Clock code if any changes come up, but for now, I've earned my Front End Development Libraries certificate! Will push on with data visualization tomorrow.
Finished the HTML part of beta Responsive Web Design and opened up a forum post about my issues with my project.
Continued with beta Responsive Web Design, still have ~6 test cases left even though I should pass them. This annoying script error bug has been there for almost 2 days.
Continued with beta Responsive Web Design, only 6 more test cases. Also, 100-day streak!
Continued with beta Responsive Web Design and I only have 8 more test cases to pass for my 25 + 5 clock!
Continued with beta Responsive Web Design and sort of made the timer functional, though there is some weird script error.
Continued with beta Responsive Web Design and made a breakthrough with my 25 + 5 project, I figured out that there should be two states for seconds, one for math and another to be displayed. Hopefully, I'll get this project complete and earn my certificate by the end of this week!
Continued with the beta version of Responsive Web Design and my 25 + 5 Clock project. Hope to get almost fully through FCC in 2022!
These front-end projects take so, so long. And if you take a few days to build them, your streak gets wrecked. So I was desperate, I was so tired from my 25 + 5 Clock project that I started to do my data visualization projects, thinking they would be faster to do than the front-end projects (they weren't).
But then, just as I was about to give up, I saw... this. This not only saved my streak for today, but my streak for years to come as I can speedrun this on the side and finish my projects without melting my brain by trying to do it all in one day.
Thank you, whoever thought of this. (Side note: This is actually a cool idea on its own, I really dig the new design on these challenges.)
Finished the JavaScript Calculator project (see it here)

Mar 04, 2023-Mar 04, 2023 Attended a national maths competition with my schoolmate. Due to privacy reasons, I was being incredibly vague.
Attended the first (and last) day of a national maths competition with my schoolmate as a duo. First round went really well (mostly because it was easy + 60 minutes) and got ~7th place, however the second round was extremely hard (and 45 minutes!) so we did not reach top 3. Oh well, the ride to the university + the conversations with him were what mattered the most. Great food though!
Oct 05, 2022-Feb 14, 2023 I was the Coordinator - Environment for my school. A post that I will cherish having for a long time (oh, and due to privacy reasons, I was being incredibly vague).
Well, for some reason or the other, I did not decide to log one of the most important projects of my life so far. I became part of the student council, being unsure of what to expect - the uncertainty was amplified by me getting my second preference (though I'm grateful that happened instead of my first preference)
I ended up making the post a lot more influential than it should have been. It's the postholder and not the post. I ended up organising and contributing extensively to a lot of things, small and big (from our national day celebration to our seniors' graduation day to a small impromptu assembly we had when a workshop was being conducted for teachers).
The student council in your junior year should (hopefully!) just be a taste of what's to come next year. But that shouldn't stop you from reminiscing.

17.873, 4.861, 31.998 and 11.427.
Attended Dubai Summer Open 2022 and got an 18.73 average with a 16.72 best for 3x3! An awesome time overall :)

I think I've learnt the Ja perm for 3x3 OH? 20.030, 5.016, 37.032 and 9.073.
3x3 AO5 PB! (by a couple milliseconds lol): 15.708 (!), 8.368, 35.560 and 7.586

Much better in the Skewb department! 19.732, 6.789, 36.512 and 8.764.
21.091, 6.134, 33.164 and 15.323.

19.545, 5.173, 37.692 and 9.840.
At least I learnt the one-handed version of the H perm! 18.599, 4.864, 38.965 and 11.771.
20.353, 5.457, 39.861 and 11.311.

So close: 19.009, 4.656 (!), 30.284 and 8.706.
Not a bad way to start the month: 16.993 (!), 6.440, 31.554 and 8.598.

19.592, 5.732, 34.364 and 10.530.
18.545, 6.365, 38.177 and 9.836.
One day, I'll get a sub-30 3x3 OH AO5: 17.311, 5.320, 30.854 and 10.231
23.714, 7.466, 31.628 and 10.917.
21.920, 6.766, 39.072 and 8.685.
18.965, 5.504, 33.788 and 10.432.
2 fast 4 u: 19.586, 5.419, 32.351 and 7.546
19.177, 5.797, 40.185 :(, 10.573
18.756, 5.942, 32.829 and 7.772
21.407, 5.065, 38.805 and 10.481
I was so close to sub-30 for 3x3 OH: 17.317 (!), 5.798, 31.982 and 8.910
18.892, 6.250, 32.603 and 8.918.
17.980 (!), 6.040, 31.132 and 10.525.
18.859, 5.639, 33.667 and 10.999.
20.970, 6.555, 35.080 and 10.976.
18.986, 5.383, 33.141 and 8.954.
20.229, 5.544, 33.882 and (8.615, 8.983).
20.432, 5.903, 36.015 and 11.585.
I was so close to a sub-30 3x3 OH AO5... 18.736, 6.921, 30.004 (!) and 11.585.
3x3 was tragic today, my new cube is very fast, and that can result in sub-15, but it can also result in a 40 due to messing up the PLL: 23.590, 6.047, 33.841 and 8.036
20.229, 5.503, 33.131 and 8.247
New cube! 19.169, 6.500, 33.325 and 8.948.
Never mind: 22.696, 5.413, 37.745 and 8.947.
Phew... 18.819, 6.577, 37.075 and 8.134.
22.004, 5.656, 41.466 and 9.496.
20.320, 5.291, 42.044 and 9.445.
I was so close to messing up 3x3 OH lol: 17.735, 6.390, 39.546 and 9.634.
20.155, 5.422, 36.218 and 10.212.
After a certain time in the day, I just cannot cube: 23.168, 4.714, 42.344 and 7.879.
It's funny how a couple of years ago, I would be screaming and running around if I got a sub-15 solve. Now, nothing: 18.392, 5.922, 33.850 and 9.239.
Better: 17.511, 6.151, 34.061 and 9.249
Still pretty meh, but getting better: 19.618, 6.651, 35.002 and 10.860.
20.986, 6.248, 42.098 and 10.130.
22.117, 5.633, 35.752 and 7.100.
20.241, 5.700, 37.880 and 9.941.
A (less?) agreeable set of averages: 18.711, 5.089, DNF and 7.919.
An agreeable set of averages: 19.217, 4.966, 36.632 and 8.640.
Still waiting for 3x3 BLD... 19.928, 7.067, 40.553 and 11.262.
I decided to do two AO5's for every event except 3x3 (to make everything line up): 19.273, (7.272, 5.501), (36.156, 36.921) and (11.751, 9.392)
20.927, 6.204, 37.392 and 9.882
24.275, 5.165, 35.743 and 7.170.
Not bad: 18.764, 4.901, 35.034 and 10.136.
3x3 OH wasn't feeling it today: 18.478, 4.489, 44.487 and 9.555.
23.289, 6.478, 34.936 and 8.654.
Double sigh, my first 3x3 AO5 was a DNF so I did it again and I still can't get a successful 3x3 BLD attempt: (DNF, 20.710), 5.385, 31.499 and 10.485.
Sigh, 3x3 BLD has gotten worse: 19.207, 6.058, 38.293 and 9.943.
I was planning to do a 3x3 BLD attempt, but I had to reassemble my Skewb in the middle of my AO5 :/ 19.659, 5.010, 34.842 and 11.210.
20.562, 5.151, 35.957 and 10.113.
21.166, 5.224, 37.286 and 7.112.
Still no luck with 3x3 BLD: 18.350, 4.698, 35.431 and 6.450 (!)
Phew... 19.904, 4.736, 34.368 and 9.121.
20.574, 5.218, 38.933 and 10.418.
Just made it through: 19.738, 5.281, 39.569 and 9.758.
Again, 3x3 OH could have gone better: 17.624 (!), 5.262, 38.848 and 7.606.
3x3 OH could have gone better: 18.981, 4.761 (!), 38.214 and 8.138.
Finally! 18.702, 7.092, 37.922 and 8.573.
3x3 PB! (10.105) and I still didn't get sub-20 lol: 20.031, 8.630, 31.412 and 7.408.
20.338, 5.874, 34.788 and 11.512.
22.294, 6.656, 36.895 and 9.396.
Great averages, nothing much to complain about: 17.248 (!), 5.251, 35.677 and 8.010.
3x3 OH PB! (22.095): 21.411, 6.433, 35.329 and 9.273.
Been having a hard time getting a successful no-write 3x3 BLD attempt: 18.134, 4.266, 33.915 and 8.322.
Finally: 19.299, 6.022, 32.160 and 8.944.
Today was not a day for 3x3 OH: 19.471, 4.737 (!), 43.997 and 8.170.
21.400, 5.229, 37.052 and 9.670.
3x3 BLD attempt was disastrous today lol: 18.137, 4.741 (!), 38.289 and 11.163.
22.173, 6.177, 32.371 and 14.443.
22.468, 5.526, 36.977 and 7.229.
21.620, 5.126, 38.562 and 11.681.
21.063, 6.582, 31.209 and 10.659.
Finally, some good averages: 17.740 (!), 5.741, 34.197 and 9.334.
3 days in a row... 20.832, 4.844, 35.143 and 9.095.
20.412, 8.698, 41.073 and 8.761.
22.307, 5.259, 35.524 and 10.037.
Today's 3x3 BLD attempt was so bad haha: 19.357, 4.800 (!), 33.606 and 6.465 (!)
21.066, 7.844, 42.862 and 9.970.
Disappointingly, cstimer (the cubing timer I use) doesn't produce AO1000, so here is the mean for 1000 solves: 21.177, 6.102, 41.186 and 10.019. As for the AO5's: 18.469, 5.554, 33.303 and 10.887. Also, I've spent almost 6 hours in total on 3x3 lol, here's to another 1000!
21.078, 6.095, 35.065 and 8.574.
I finished the BLD attempt too early and forgot to execute the moves to solve the last corner :( Also, day after tomorrow will be the AO1000 day! 19.973, 5.549, 37.311 and 7.746.
3x3 OH... 17.459 (!), 5.334, 40.854 and 7.839.
TS UP VE CX EA LQ! I got a successful 3x3 BLD solve without writing down the memorization during the solve! 18.899, 6.497, 37.569 and 10.569 (I also forgot to mention that a couple days ago I got a 3x3 OH PB lol, 22.402)
19.546, 5.346, 39.616 and 10.359.
21.161, 5.131, 36.236 and 9.728.
I was pretty close with the no-writing BLD attempt! 19.845, 5.578, 32.999 and 9.502.
Decent I guess: 19.625, 6.814, 38.264 and 11.757. I also tried to do a BLD attempt without writing down the memorization, I messed up because of execution lol.
Nothing saves the day: 20.620, 5.907, 39.393 and 8.049.
3x3 OH saves the day: 20.796, 4.305 (!), 29.552 (!) and 9.895.
Slightly better: 18.447, 4.443 (!), 39.591 and 7.931.
Barely passable: 19.618, 6.006, 36.972 and 8.722.
Never mind? 17.598 (!), 5.175, 33.667 an 10.520. I hate how turbulent my times are. I guess that's cubing in a nutshell.
Welp, I think we'll be in this time slump for a bit. At least I got a successful 3x3 BLD solve: 20.569, 6.222, 39.119 and 9.908 (Also, I think the change in solving order didn't do much, so I'm back to the original order).
22.961, 5.759, 35.432 and 11.559.
Phew, back on track: 19.187, 5.778, 36.826 and 7.655 (by the way, the order of the averages written haven't changed, but I now do Skewb -> 2x2 -> 3x3 OH -> 3x3).
Well, it was fun while it lasted: 21.856, 6.137, 37.501 and 10.732.
Very nice (except for 3x3 OH): 17.276, 5.472, 37.693 and 8.917. I wonder how long it'll take me to get sub-15 on 3x3.
Nice: 17.101, 5.581, 35.501 and 8.881.
100 more solves to go till AO1000! 18.073, 5.867, 38.429 and 8.191.
3x3 OH AO5 was terrible: 18.068, 5.591, 40.613 and 9.809.
Another successful 3x3 BLD solve! 17.372 (!), 5.924, 35.729 and 10.559.
Today is the greatest day of my life (cubing-wise!), got 3 sub-30 solves in 3x3 OH and great averages all around: 18.990, 5.906, 30.921 (!), 8.003.
And... I got another successful 3x3 BLD solve! It was so hectic lol, I changed my memorization mid-way through the edges (thankfully) .
I haven't been able to get a 3x3 BLD attempt (let alone a successful one) in the past 3-ish days. At least the averages are back to normal (for like a day): 18.529, 5.019, 37.587 and 9.230.
Never mind: 22.649, 5.509, 39.351 and 9.716. I like how my whole day (cubing-wise) gets ruined if my 3x3 AO5 is not sub-20 lol.
Back to normal: 19.452, 5.065, 32.064 and 9.556.
3x3 BLD attempt was off by 3 edges again: 20.618, 5.458, 40.515 and 11.240.
22.546, 7.092, 38.206 and 11.234.
Today's 3x3 BLD attempts were so frustrating, the first one was off by two flipped edges and I kept messing up the execution in the later solves, at least the averages were good: 18.488, 5.382, 39.277 and 8.365.
I got two sub-20 solves for 3x3 at first, but it all got ruined by a DNF and a +2, it sometimes feel like it's all about luck, anyways: 20.698, 5.174, 35.456 and 13.105.
Odd 3x3 BLD attempt was so close: 21.064, 5.506, 37.986 and 8.045.
How did an average with a 40 and a DNF become sub-40? 25.537, 4.964, 39.721 and 9.783.
Scrambles were very easy: 17.547 (!), 4.941, 38.425 and 11.764.
Got a 12 second solve for 3x3 but regardless: 21.821, 6.535, 36.357 and 10.273.
23.077, 5.853, 41.374 and 10.033.
21.405, 6.002, 37.289 and 10.459.
I guess I got lucky? 18.841, 5.380, 34.834 and 9.340. Today's 3x3 BLD attempt was so close (two edges flipped).
Forgot about the switch-up: 24.875, 6.812, 35.906 and 11.400.
My averages have been terrible for the past few months days and so I'm going to switch it up by doing 2x2 first and then proceeding the with normal order (don't worry, the log order will remain the same): 22.462, 5.755, 40.173 and 9.379.
200 more solves left for an AO1000: 20.543, 5.996, 36.888 and 9.247.
This is getting ridiculous: 19.962, 5.636, 40.219 and 11.274.
Yes? 19.093, 5.612, 37.009, 11.737.
Nope: 20.098, 7.327, 38.656 and 7.993.
We're back? 18.709, 5.143, 38.506 and 6.759.
Meh (x2): 21.662, 6.125, 34.649 and 9.689.
Meh: 22.201, 5.474, 40.973 and 10.045.
QX TJ IW ER UO LR, WB XL JD! I DID IT! THE NEW SETUP MOVES ACTUALLY WORKED! I will add a technicality here, I forgot the "JD" part so I peeked at it. A full timed BLD solve coming soon! Averages were meh but that doesn't matter: 20.036 (so close!), 4.361, 40.565 and 8.018.
I need to stop cubing at night (x2): 23.734, 5.564, 43.749 and 7.136.
I need to stop cubing at night: 20.598, 7.136, 42.022 and 10.538.
Sigh: 21.520, 6.214, 36.180 and 8.337, at least I learnt why my "odd" memorizations for 3x3 BLD are always way off (I can't use any setup moves that disrupt the top two corners + the buffer)
2x2 was quite a shock: 21.093, 3.474 (!), 44.370 and 9.777.
Nothing to say really: 22.273, 5.233, 39.433 and 8.907.
Sigh, the corners for today's BLD attempt were totally wrong and my averages have hit an all-time low: 20.595, 8.103, 40.345 and 12.222.
It's just a matter of time: 3 corners wrong again (but I re-attempted my memorization whilst being able to look and my corner memorization was slightly wrong). Also, 3x3 PB! (11.764, here's the scramble: F L2 U L2 F2 U2 L2 R2 U2 B' R2 B F R B D2 B' U B F) and the averages were not bad too: 19.507, 5.753, 37.973 and 9.585.
My 3x3 BLD attempt was agonizingly close, I had three corners that were wrong :(
Also, averages were (arguably) more disappointing: 22.265, 7.134, 39.826 and 11.307.
These have got to be my most disappointing averages: 21.324, 7.266, 43.087 and 9.680.
Back to meh averages: 21.481, 5.477, 36.067 and 9.224.
So close with today's 3x3 BLD attempt, only about 4 corners were wrong. Today's average were great: 19.330, 4.720, 36.209 and 8.188.
Got nothing much to say: 21.268, 5.496, 38.223 and 10.216.
Don't know what's going wrong, but I can't get any correct memorization (one can't be odd and another even) and today's averages were meh (except 3x3 OH, I got a 26!): 23.784, 5.127, 32.972 (!) and 12.093.
Couldn't get any 3x3 BLD memorization since I kept getting stuck in an "edge loop". Today's 3x3 was tragic. Were it not for that +2 at the end, I would have gotten a 19.879 average. Instead: 20.546, 4.763, 39.881 and 10.050.
I checked out another example solve and this one memorized corners -> memorized edges -> executed edges -> executed corners. I tried that (with parity) and it was pretty close (~5 corners were wrong). Anyways, today's averages were bad: 25.125, 7.246, 38.246 and 8.772.
Did a 3x3 BLD attempt while seeing, I'm 99% sure my parity algorithm and corner memorization are always wrong. I'll work on that. The averages were really good: 17.640 (!), 6.461, 38.753 and 8.020.
Not bad: 19.799, 5.190, 39.064 (was so close to 40 lol) and 8.005. Got a PB today for 2x2 (1.386) and Skewb (3.268)!
Today's averages were pretty amazing: 19.030, 4.953, 38.781 and 9.570.
Today's attempt was so close it's annoying, and today's averages were not bad: 21.033, 5.817, 36.105 and a 10.531.
Even cases still leave my corners all messed up. Today's averages were terrible: 21.927, 7.347, 35.463 and 10.863.
So close yet so far with BLD, I rechecked my solution and it was right up to the edges, I think parity messed me up, maybe my algorithm is wrong? Today's averages were very meh: 21.658, 6.286, 40.089 and 8.430.
Well, that upward trajectory lasted longer than the time the US made $1 coins: 21.514, 6.383, 34.207 and a 9.668.
So close! Just messed up my corner memorization (somewhere) and today's averages were great: 19.732, 6.033, 37.433, 9.408.
We're back: 19.463, 5.182, 35.965 and a 8.541.
BLD was really close today! I think I've gotten used to the new correct setup moves. Today's averages were sad (could have gotten sub-20 in 3x3 if it wasn't for me messing up PLL): 21.694, 7.680, 40.865 and a 9.638.
Today's BLD attempt failed spectacularly and today's averages were slightly less meh (emphasis on slightly): 22.500, 5.821, 41.203 and a 8.944.
Couldn't get today's BLD attempt, and today's were very meh: 24.692, 5.152, 40.385 and a 9.958.
HOLY CRAP TODAY'S 3X3 BLD ATTEMPT WAS SO CLOSE! Only my corner memorization was a little bit wrong and the buffer for the edge was flipped (which confirms that it's possible, I need to learn what to do in that case). Today's averages were good (except for 3x3, still waiting for a streak of sub-20's): 22.320, 4.962, 35.021 and a 10.029.
I must be doing something right with 3x3 BLD, I did my edge memorization (while being able to see) and it was all correct. But after doing the parity (which I was supposed to do) the whole corner memorization got messed up. Weird. Anyways, today's averages were meh: 21.027, 6.522, 38.636 and 10.536.
Okay, I rewatched an example solve and I realized I've been making a ton of mistakes. I tried to use the new buffer location, but my setup moves are now too complicated. Maybe the buffer location doesn't matter? Anyways, today's averages were better, 3x3 sub-20 coming soon: 20.770, 6.072, 37.997 and a 9.871.
I don't even want to talk about this day cubing-wise: 20.866, 4.760, 50.749 and 9.291.
So close! I think the only place I could have potentially gone wrong was returning to the buffer. Today's 3x3 OH average was insane, almost all solves were sub-35: 22.481, 6.097, 34.596 and 8.596.
Still no luck, will actually try recording my attempt over the weekend to see any mistakes I made after the solve. Today's averages (except 3x3 OH) were meh: 22.537, 6.205, 35.843 and 9.001.
Nope, that was not the reason. Today's averages were meh again: 22.205, 7.153, 40.376 and 10.354.
I think I found the reason why my 3x3 BLD attempts have all failed, it's because I didn't do wide setup moves. I'll try again tomorrow (I messed up parity in today's attempt lol). Today's averages were meh: 20.032, 5.665, 36.412 and 10.434.
The meh-streak continues: 21.008, 5.467, 38.579 and 7.971.
So close! One good thing that came from today's 3x3 BLD attempt was that everything was generally much faster (memorization + execution), though that could mean the probability of making a mistake is now much higher... Today's averages were meh again (except for 3x3 OH): 21.947, 5.328, 38.148 and a 8.784.
Thought today would be the day, but nope, I messed up the 3x3 BLD attempt quite badly (though I'm not sure what I did wrong in the attempt, maybe messed up an execution?). Anyways, today's averages (except 3x3) were meh: 18.878 (!), 7.080, 40.929 and 10.494.
So close! I think I only messed up my corner memorization, the edges were all correct and a few corners hadn't been swapped. Anyways, today's averages were meh again: 20.580, 6.680, 39.801 and a 9.568.
My closest 3x3 BLD attempt yet! Got every step done, maybe my memoization was wrong. Anyways, today's averages were pretty meh: 19.308, 6.757, 44.479 and a 10.444.
Pretty bad all around, failed my 3x3 BLD attempt with the same mistake I've been making in the past few attempts (confused between algorithms) and got pretty meh averages: 20.538, 4.140, 54.184 and an 8.206.
Everything today was very, very sad: 21.869, 5.481, 44.561 and a 9.391.
Today's 3x3 BLD attempt was so bad it was funny, I thought mid-way the solve that I might get only a few wrong (since I forgot to do the parity algorithm) but nope. Anyways, today's averages were also, well, average. But I did get a 3x3 OH PB (22.402): 20.095, 6.131, 41.337 and an 8.516.
Got quite close with my 3x3 BLD attempt, one day... Today's averages were pretty meh: 22.241, 5.753, 41.772 and a 9.544.
I learnt yesterday night why all my 3x3 BLD attempts failed, it's because I swapped the wrong buffer piece and I didn't do the parity algorithm. I corrected both today, a successful attempt should come soon. Today's averages were good: 19.257, 4.985, 36.746 and a 7.840.
Very strange 3x3 BLD full attempt today, I somehow got all edges correct and no corners correct. Anyways, today's averages were awesome: 19.627 (!), 4.514 (!), 38.066 (!) and a 7.689 (!)
Today's averages were crazy! Got an 18.415 (!), 4.202 (!), 38.537 (!) and a 9.553. Also did my first full 3x3 BLD attempt, did not go too well but the amount of progress I'm making is amazing.
Pretty awesome averages today, got a 19.129 (!), 5.254, 37.508 (!) and a 10.109.
Today was crazy for 2x2, I destroyed my PB, twice in a row, first with a sub-3 (2.589) and then with a sub-2 (1.450), today's averages were nothing too crazy though: 20.102, 5.000 (!), 42.915 and an 8.407.
I think I've fully learnt 3x3 BLD edges! Will move on to corners tomorrow. As for the times today, a bit disappointed with 3x3 but the rest were alright: 24.521, 6.656, 36.764 (!) and a 7.299 (!)
I think I have to follow the tutorial again for 3x3 BLD, making the same mistakes over and over again. Anyways, today's averages were awesome, soon to be sort of officially sub-40 3x3 OH and sub-20 3x3: 18.546, 6.218, 35.814 and 10.457.
Again, got really close to 3x3 BLD edges attempt. As for the times today: I got a 23.001, 6.177, 34.869 (!) and a 10.518.
SO CLOSE to a true 3x3 BLD edges attempt! I was only one swap away. Anyways, I completed 500 solves in every event, and today's averages were a 21.648, 5.759, 43.116 and a 10.973.
So close to sub-40 AO5 for 3x3 OH, but I messed up the last solve. Will move on to memorizing corners for 3x3 BLD and today's times are a 20.929, 5.127, 40.641 and a 9.240.
Pretty great for 2x2, got a 20.645, 4.702 (!), 43.245 and a 10.341.
Today was crazy for 3x3 OH again, got a 21.468, 6.339, 37.748 (!) and a 10.506.
Amazing day! Got a 3x3 OH PB (24.204) (!) and great averages for 3x3 and 3x3 OH: 19.394 (!), 6.030, 35.962 (!) and a 10.915.
Not bad, got a 21.398, 5.979, 41.616 and a 10.386.
Amazing averages! Got a 19.056 (!), 5.725, 39.427 and a 8.321.
Progress! I solved the 3x3 BLD edges (though I could see the cube, just trying to get my memorization correct) and today's 2x2 was crazy good. 20.787, 4.923 (!), 40.937 and a 10.749.
Started with my 3x3 BLD practice (though it will be a slow journey) and I got a 20.636, 6.771, 44.624 and an 8.753.
Pretty good day, got another successful 2x2 BLD solve, going to move on to 3x3 BLD with this video, as for the times, I got a 19.373 (!), 6.114, 41.561 and a 9.421.
PaNama Times Something Goes Mad! That was the memorization for my first ever legit 2x2 BLD solve! I did it again (though the scramble was pretty easy). As for the times today, they were pretty mid: 20.916, 5.551, 44.045 and a 9.939.
Happy new year! Getting really close with 2x2 BLD, I think my main problem is what I memorize is wrong, the memorization and solving part is not hard. Anyways, I got a 21.460, 6.278, 45.938, 9.669.
Still no luck with 2x2 BLD, but the times today were not bad, nearly got a 3x3 OH PB (29.480): 20.790, 6.353, 37.504 (!) and a 8.922. Hope to go for a competition in 2022!
No luck with 2x2 BLD still and a pretty average day, 21.719, 6.508, 43.146 and a 11.594.
So close! I attempted 2x2 BLD (by closing my eyes lol) thrice and got only two pieces unsolved in the last two attempts. Hopefully, by the end of this week, I'll know how to solve it BLD. Anyways, today's times were nothing great: 23.027, 6.431, 43.704 and 8.318.
Alright day, got a 21.078, 5.375, 39.117 (!) and a 12.108.
Solved a 2x2 with the Old Pochmann method! (though I wasn't blindfolded, and I can only do it if I don't have a new cycle, I'll have to revise that), as for the times, I got a 19.002 (!), 5.674, 40.539 and 9.591.
Made good progress learning 2x2 blindfolded with this video and got alright times for today: 21.616, 6.931, 39.859 (!) and a 10.084.

Meh again, got a 21.244, 6.696, 40.381 and a 10.185. Learnt the Gc perm, only one more to go!
Even worse this time, got a 20.709, 7.065, 48.662 and a 10.913.
Alright I guess, got a 21.317, 7.003, 40.893 and a 9.900. Hope to learn full PLL by the end of this week.
Pretty good, got a 18.939 (!), 7.039, 41.364 and 8.666 (!). Is Gc perm the worst G perm?
On fire for 3x3 OH! Today's 3x3 times were very funny, I got a 30 in one of them, 20 in two of them and then a 15 in the last solve. Anyways, I got a 20.895, 6.642, 34.869 (!) and a 9.233.
Slightly worse, but still did very good in 3x3 OH, got a 22.331, 5.687 (!), 37.640 (!) and a 9.206. Going to learn the Gc perm tomorrow.
Awesome day cubing wise! Got a 19.421 (!), 5.322 (!), 38.880 (!) and a 8.327 (!).

Talk about an early Christmas miracle, I got a 14.166 3x3 PB! As for the rest of the times, I got a 20.197, 6.595, 36.706 (!) and an 8.390.
This month was pretty awesome cubing-wise, sure there were plenty of average days, but I got really good at 3x3 OH (now my favourite event) and got plenty of PB's! Oh, I got 20.019, 7.074, 43.291 and a 8.094.
The average day has come, got a 20.047, 5.988, 42.593 and a 10.056.

I was a two-time silver medalist for 2019 and 2020 in my country. Initially tried to get a similar result for 2022, but ended up losing interest. Note that, for the majority of this project, I got four 5x5s and two 6x6s (thought it was previously two 4x4s and four 5x5s).
Got selected for the national level! (Written on Jan 14, 2023 - Though I ended up not going.)
5/6 in ~11 minutes. I've decided to pause this project. If I get selected to the national level, I'll continue this project, else it ends.
Truth be told, I do not find KENKEN enjoyable anymore. I guess the charm wears off after a while.
5/6 in ~7.5 minutes.
All correct in ~8-9 minutes.
Had my "state"-level exam which went well.
Finished the August 2022 weekly challenges: ~10 minutes and ~8 minutes, all correct for both.
Daily puzzles went well.

4 checks for two hard 6x6s.
~9 minutes for 5/6.
Solved a 7x7 for fun!
Sigh, ~14 minutes for 5/6.
~13 minutes for all correct.
~11 minutes for all correct.
For some reason, I just couldn't do today's weekly challenge. I guess I was too distracted. I'll try again tomorrow.
Daily puzzles went alright.
Don't do KENKEN when you're tired.
Daily puzzles went okay.
Back to sub-10 minutes for all correct!
Daily puzzles went well.
19 seconds shy of 10 minutes with all correct.
15 seconds shy of 10 minutes with all correct.
Daily puzzles went alright (had to basically skip the last one though).
~11 minutes for all correct (tried to pause it as I had to get up, didn't work lol).
Two sub-3s on two hard 6x6s with only one check in the last one.
~12 minutes for all correct.
~7 minutes for 5/6. All remaining weekly challenges have been completed!

~8 minutes for all correct.

~15 minutes for all correct.
~9 minutes for 5/6.
~13 minutes for all correct.

Just barely got 9 minutes for yesterday's (?) weekly challenge.
9 and 10 minutes for all correct.
7 minutes for all correct and 9 minutes for 5/6.
11 minutes for all correct.
5/6.
9 minutes for all correct.
Why is the weekly challenge daily?
12 minutes for all correct.
All correct in ~8 minutes!
Daily puzzles were alright.
15 minutes for a 6x6 wrong.
Daily puzzles were alright.
13 minutes for a 5x5 wrong.
Daily puzzles went alright.
I just got through today's weekly challenge lol.
Oof, got the last 6x6 wrong because I forgot that the sum property of a 6x6 is 21.
All correct in the Weekly challenge in 8 minutes and 20 seconds. Need to get it down to 7 by the end of this month.
Sigh, 5/6. Déjà vu?
Daily puzzles went well.
Sigh, 5/6.
Daily puzzles went well.
Could have gotten all correct in ~8 minutes if it wasn't for a silly mistake in the last 6x6.
Daily puzzles went okay.
Sigh, 4/6.
5/6. It's both good and bad that I no longer find the hard 6x6s in the daily puzzles difficult.
All correct in ~5 minutes!
5/6 in what felt like forever.
The website glitched out, so I got to do only one daily puzzle :(
Sigh. All 6x6s wrong.
Daily puzzles went okay.
~9 minutes again... but with a 6x6 left wrong :(
~9 minutes for the weekly challenge. I hope to stabilize to ~7 minutes soon enough.
Daily puzzles went pretty well.
Sigh. 11 minutes for 1 6x6 wrong.
Daily puzzles went well.
I somehow got two 5x5s wrong in today's weekly challenge. Should I slow down for 5x5s?
Daily puzzles were alright.
All correct in exactly 10 minutes lol.
Weekly challenge in ~8 minutes... with all the 6x6s wrong.
Daily puzzles were pretty bad.
All correct in ~7 minutes and 40 seconds in today's weekly challenge.
Daily puzzles were okay.
All correct in less than 7 minutes in today's weekly challenge!
Daily puzzles were alright.
Tragic, got the 5x5 wrong but the rest were correct in ~7 minutes :/
I DID IT! Just under 6 minutes for all correct in the weekly challenge!
Sigh, 8 minutes for the last 6x6 left incomplete.
Worst weekly challenge ever: ~8 minutes for three wrong (2 wrong, 1 left unattempted) :(
Daily puzzles were meh to alright.
Weekly challenge went so poorly (5/6 in more than 10 minutes) :(
Daily puzzles were meh.
Getting sort of close to the 7 minute mark with the weekly challenges!
Same issue, below 10 minutes but left one puzzle as wrong for that (to make matters worse, it was a 5x5).
Daily puzzles were alright.
~9 minutes with the last 6x6 incorrect :(
~7 minutes with all correct in the bonus challenge!
Weekly challenge took ~10 minutes but with the last 6x6 was incorrect.
Daily puzzles were pretty good!
Got below 9 minutes in the weekly challenge with all correct!
Got all correct in the weekly challenge... in ~14 minutes :(
Daily puzzles were meh.
Another weekly challenge in 9 minutes, but... I had to leave a 6x6 as incorrect for that :(
Daily puzzles were terrible lol.
I DID IT! All correct in ~9 minutes! Now I need to do all of it in 7 minutes...
Daily puzzles were not bad.
Not sure what the exact medical term is, but "the physiological feeling of having no time left in an exam/competitive setting" happened in today's weekly challenge lol. I had ~2 minutes left to reach my goal of completing a weekly challenge in 10 minutes or less and I did it... but all of the 6x6s were wrong. :(
Weekly challenge was pretty poor (one wrong in 14 minutes) and daily puzzles were half-way decent.
Daily puzzles went really well for a change.
Bad day KENKEN-wise, took ~14 minutes for all correct and daily puzzles were pretty bad.
I've noticed that with hard 6x6 puzzles, I need to often make strenuous guesses or YOLO my way out of it. Sigh.
Sigh, I was about to finish the weekly challenge in about 10 minutes, but the last 6x6 tripped me up.
I need to stop using the check button every time I put something down.
Finished the weekly challenge in under 10 minutes BUT I had to basically skip the last 6x6 for that to happen.
Not bad, a little more than 10 and a half minutes with all correct for today's weekly challenge (I miraculously got the last 6x6 correct lol).
Daily puzzles went alright.
Similar story, ~16-17 minutes but all correct (the first 6x6 was pretty darn hard).
Even worse, went down to 16 minutes with 1 wrong.
Dropped down to 15 minutes for the weekly challenge :(
Daily puzzles went meh.
Got another one below 10 minutes, though this time it took 9 minutes and 46 seconds (all correct) and the daily puzzles went a bit better.
Got below 10 minutes on the weekly challenge! (~9 and a half minutes with all correct) and daily puzzles are still meh (I even got one wrong).
Daily puzzles went laughably bad.
Weekly challenge (all correct in 12 minutes) and daily puzzles went meh, I hope to get below 10 minutes on the weekly challenge next week.
Daily puzzles went well.
Finished the weekly challenge in 11 minutes this time around and finished 2 hard 6x6s.
Bonus challenge took almost 20 minutes and I couldn't do a second hard 6x6 :(
Still took more than 10 minutes but got all correct this time. Bonus challenge will be done tomorrow!
Weekly challenge (5/6) took more than 10 minutes (I don't remember the exact time). Need to bring it down to less than 10 minutes consistently.
Daily puzzles were decent, I'm really happy at my progress at hard 6x6s.
Barely got through the weekly challenge in 10 minutes (closer to 11 actually but whatever).
Daily puzzles went alright.
Haha, they changed the weekly challenge to four 5x5s and two 6x6s (in the order), finished that with all correct in 15 minutes (which is bad, but it's my first try at it so it's alright) and the first hard 6x6 I did took me 10 minutes lol.
When solving hard puzzles, your main goal isn't to find the correct position of the numbers right away, but rather you need the fuel: this could be from the row-column sum property, just some simple logic (a +12 cell in a 6x6 always has to contain a 5 and two number that add up to seven), anything really. After that, it's a piece of π.
6/6 in 4 and a half minutes! The two hard 6x6s went alright, though I did take a lot of time for both of them.
Finished weekly challenge (5/6 in 10-ish minutes) and I think I'm ready for hard 6x6s now.
Daily puzzles went meh.
Why do I keep blundering a puzzle in the weekly challenge? Also, when will I comfortably transition to hard 6x6s, when will my weekly challenges update? So many questions.
Daily puzzles went meh, I really hope they update our weekly challenges for the next level puzzles (since I'll be getting 6x6s not 4x4s)
Made it to the next level (I somehow got the first 4x4 wrong in the school level exam) and got all correct in the weekly challenge today and the daily puzzles went okay.
For some reason, only one daily puzzle was unlocked, but it went well (one medium 6x6).
Daily puzzles (two medium 6x6s) went alright.
Slightly better, 5/6.
Got 4/6 in my last weekly challenge for this week.
New PB: Weekly challenge completed in less than 4 minutes, why couldn't have the school exam gone like this?
No weekly challenge today, but the daily puzzles (two medium 6x6s) went alright.
Sigh, got 4/6 in the weekly challenge and the daily puzzles (two medium 6x6s) went really poorly.
Both the bonus weekly challenge (5/6 in about 11 minutes) and the daily puzzles went poorly.
Finished with the weekly challenge and the daily puzzles, will complete the bonus challenge tomorrow.
Had my school-level exam. It went pretty terribly (most likely all correct in about 10 minutes) but it's very likely I proceed to the next level. Also finished weekly challenge and daily puzzles.
Finished with the daily puzzles, went really well.
Found something interesting in my weekly challenge (which went meh) and my daily puzzles: Notice the below image and the "108x" cage:
Now, there is only one possibility which is "3 x 6 x 6 x 1", but what about the position? We can use the fact that 1 has to be on the top row of the cage to our advantage and see that that there are only two possibilities left:
But regardless of which possibility is correct, 3 and 6 are always in the bottom row! So, that leaves 4 in the "9+" cage. Thought it was interesting.
Back to medium 6x6s.
Weekly challenge (one wrong in about 10 minutes) and daily puzzles (had to drop back to easy 6x6s) went bad.
Happy Pi Day, I don't think I'm ready for two hard 6x6s. I mean, I didn't check my medium 6x6 (being overconfident) and got it wrong lol.
Both the weekly challenge (all correct in > 8 minutes) and daily puzzles went badly. At least I have a bonus challenge for Pi Day.
Finished the last weekly challenge for this week (doesn't make sense, I know) in 6 and a half minutes. The first hard 6x6 was good but it took a long time to find the second one.
Going to start doing 2 hard 6x6s for my daily puzzles instead of one medium and one hard.
Finished the weekly challenge (all correct in ~5-6 minutes) and finished a medium and a hard 6x6 (again, went poorly today).
Finished a medium 6x6 in ~3 minutes but the hard 6x6 went pretty poorly today.
Not bad, got done with the weekly challenge (all correct in about 6 minutes) and finished a medium, and a hard 6x6 in ~3 minutes each.
Finished a medium, 6x6 in less than 2 minutes! Hard 6x6 went pretty well too.
Finally, the weekly challenge went well (all correct in just shy of 6 minutes) and finished a medium and hard 6x6.
Finished with the weekly challenge (was going amazingly well until I couldn't solve a dumb 5x5, still did 5/6 in 6 and a half minutes) and finished with one medium 6x6 and a hard 6x6.
I've started doing one medium 6x6 and one hard 6x6. The hard one takes ~4 minutes so my goal is to get that down to 2 minutes.
Getting better at 6x6 and today's weekly challenge was meh (one wrong in ~8 minutes)
Finished with two medium 6x6s, they went fine.
Weekly challenge was going smoothly till one 5x5 messed up my time. I took a little more than 10 minutes and couldn't get the last one. :(
Medium 6x6 takes too much time and an easy 6x6 takes too little time to solve!
Finished the weekly challenge (~10 minutes, all correct) and two medium 6x6. I have this bad habit with my daily puzzles of hitting the "Check" button, so I hit it for the last puzzle and saw I got most cells flipped (i.e. wrong). Ouch.
Finished the weekly challenge (went meh, ~10 minutes and got one wrong) and a medium and hard 6x6 (the hard one took a long time).
Finished a hard and medium 6x6 after a lot of cherry-picking lol.
Solid day, finished the weekly challenge in less than 10 minutes and finished a medium 6x6 and a hard 6x6.
Finished one medium and one hard 6x6 with all operations! (though they took a long time)
Can now solve an easy 6x6 with all operations in a little under 3 minutes! Also, today's weekly challenge went alright (all correct but in 10 minutes, got stuck with a puzzle).
Finished with two puzzles, including a medium 6x6 (with + and -) in only 2 and a half minutes!
Pretty slow throughout my two weekly challenges (one of them was a bonus and I got one wrong) and my daily puzzles. At least I started with addition and subtraction for 6x6!
Amazing day! Beat my record (all correct in 5 minutes and 12 seconds) and moved up to easy (not easiest/very easy) 6x6 with only addition.
No weekly challenge today but I finished a hard 5x5 and a very easy 6x6 (improving in time quite a bit).
Finished a hard 5x5 and a very easy 6x6 (which took way too long lol) and I think I hit a new record for the weekly challenge, all correct in 5 minutes and 59 seconds!
Finished two hard 5x5s, going to start doing one 6x6 (starting with all operations + easiest and working my way up) and one hard 5x5 since all the stages above school level have two 6x6s for my category!
Finished with 5/6 again and (for fun) I did an easy 6x6 (with only addition) and the usual hard 5x5 (both took roughly the same amount of time!)
Not bad, 5/6 again and finished the two hard 5x5s quite quickly.
Solid day, 5/6 in the weekly challenge and finished the two hard 5x5s.
Alright day, finished the two weekly challenges remaining for this week (6/6 in the first one, 4/6 in the other, both times I used a decent amount of time) and finished my two hard 5x5s for the day.
Nice! A new record, all puzzles correct in only ~6 minutes! Also got both my hard 5x5's done in less than 2 minutes. I already feel ready for the exam.
Solved the weekly challenge in only 8 minutes! (it also wrongly marked my first 4x4 as incorrect, weird) and I finished one hard 5x5 (blocked me from doing a second one, weird).
Got done with the last Jan weekly challenge (4/6, pretty meh) and finished two hard 5x5's (last one took a long time).
Alright day, finished a weekly challenge (5 out of 6) and 2 hard 5x5's (though the last one I had to rely on the check tool a lot).
Finished a weekly challenge (all correct, used a little more than half the time) and 2 hard 5x5's (all correct).
Going to finish the early-Jan weekly challenge I missed.
Awesome day KENKEN-wise, got full on the weekly challenge with 13 minutes to spare and finished two hard 5x5s.
Very similar to yesterday, finished the weekly challenge (5 out of 6 with exactly 15 minutes left) and the daily puzzles (got the hard 5x5 wrong).
Finished the weekly challenge (it was alright, 5 out of 6 with about 17 minutes left) and the daily puzzles.
Not bad, finished both my daily puzzles (though I took a long time).
Awesome progress! I got done with my two daily puzzles (all correct) and finished with weekly challenge 2 (which I completed in about half the time with all correct!)
I still got it! A medium-level 4x4 takes me less than a minute, though 5x5's I still have to work on.
Registered for this year's edition after taking a break in 2021, I'll be getting 2 4x4's and 4 5x5's. Let's see how this project will go!
