Exactly Remy! Exactly!

Pinapa-picture-an sa akin ng Nanay ko mga bata dito sa amin para daw may remembrance sila ng Christmas. Suggestion naman ni Ate photobooth na lang. Bago ako pumayag, tiningnan ko muna kung kaya ko haha.

Siguro kaya na-overwhelm ako sa attempt ko dati kasi I tried to solve the problem as a whole, at inuuna ko mag-imagine. Pero hindi na ngayon hehehe. At dahil nag-switch na ako sa Arch Linux medyo matagal na, linux-based tools ako nag-focus.

Pano ko maco-control yung camera? Buti na lang supported ng gPhoto2 ang camera kong Canon 450D. It actually has a long list of supported cameras. At ang dali niya gamitin. After ko mag-install, I tried shooting some then move on na ko sa next problem.
Pano ko male-layout yung photos? Naisip ko agad yung Python Imaging Library, pero while studying how to use it, may nag-suggest ng ImageMagick. Parang Photoshop siya ng command-line! At sobrang nakaka-addict pa yung documentation. Kasi it doesn’t just explain how to use it, pati yung math behind the command. Kaya parang na-gets ko na how Photoshop works deep inside (yung pinaka-gist lang haha). Anyway, it was easy to use. I tried layouting manually first. Nung nagawa ko na, next problem na ulit.
Pano ko mapi-print after processing? CUPS! ang default printing tools ng Linux. Meron siyang lp command. Kailangan ko lang mag-lp -p Canon_iP2700_series -o media=4x6.bl,glossy -o scaling=100 <file>.

Ok na yung main components. Icing na lang yung iba. I just had to compile it into a script. Na naka-post dito. Baka meron jang trip din gawin. Kailangan lang ng computer, camera, at printer. :)

Madali lang yan

Pagkakamali ko nung first year college pa lang. Madalas ko sinasabi “madali lang yun” sa madaming bagay. Kahit hindi naman talaga madali o kaya kahit may idea lang ako kung pano gawin.

Blind optimism. Unfounded.

Napansin ko sa Capstone group mate ko when he was talking to our client laging may madaling lang po yun at the end of every request/suggestion. Kaya it did not end up well.

He has an idea on how to do it but hasn’t done it in actual projects yet. Kaya may problema sa estimation ng dali. Parang ako.

Pero ang laki ng natutunan ko sa sarili ko dahil sa kanya. Kaya sobrang thankful na rin ako.

Anything that can go wrong will go wrong (Murphy’s law)

Estimated time * 2. Kunwari creating a logo takes 1 week, bali 2 weeks yung alotted time. Para may buffer. Kasi nga things will go wrong.

Kung hindi ko ma estimate, manghula. Para kung mali man, maalala ko next time kasi nagkamali ako. At alam kong may mali ako kasi I have something to compare it with (yung hula).

Valuable things takes effort, walang madali. May mga challenging at fun na work lang na parang reward yung actual work kaya parang madali.

E kung madali lang talaga, fun ba talaga yun?
