6-Month Review



So, about six months ago, I set myself a
set of goals to accomplish about this time in my life. I think now would be a good time
to review those goals and see where I've come since then.



I set out to accomplish my Zend/PHP5.3 certification, more security-oriented programming,
and more front-end development. Since then, I have accomplished the goal of my PHP/5.3
certification, and I have started developing more applications that involve more javascript.
I have not quite yet gotten involved in more security-oriented programming, but that is
yet to come. I have to say I'm proud that I've accomplished what I have thus far and I would
like to continue this trend.


Goals for the next 6months




  1. Security-Oriented Programming

    I want to continue the goal of finding more security-oriented programming. Now that I have
    an opportunity with HealthPlan Services and dealing
    with the HIPPA standards, I think I will have a better shot at obtaining this opportunity.


  2. Kizano CMS

    I have plans to build a CMS
    that's unlike any before it. I've seen many a CMS before that
    were built on top of the Zend
    Framework    . However, I disagree with the implementation of these frameworks as
    they aren't really built to extend the ZF, but moreso, just use the ZF for a
    few components it has. I want to build a system that is truly built on top of the ZF
    and is made to actually extend the functionality given by it. Not only this, but I
    also want to build the first framework that actually follows ALL of the
    ZF
    coding standards    . Anyone is welcome to contribute to this project if they wish.


  3. Zend Certification

    Now that I've obtained my Zend certification in PHP/5.3, I want to obtain the certificate
    in the framework as well to tell employers that I do have a solid background in PHP and
    the ZF, and that I am very capable of handling myself in such a work of art.


  4. ZF Developer-Contibuted Modules

    There is a repository
    I'm hosting that I hope to contain a series of developers' contributed work. This work
    I hope to be modules, views and controllers that other developers have created and added
    to this project so that future developers can simply copy/paste these modules/controllers
    into their project and run with it instead of re-inventing the wheel.



There are probably more goals in my life that I want to accomplish, however, these are the
main goals in my life for this next six months. I think I'm going to break the tradition
of only having three goals in life, and just set a number of things I want to see happen
in my life within the next six months.

Video Guide Text Guide Intro MineXMR is shutting down! What are we going to do?! OMG! Greetings and welcome to Kizano's FinTech where I teach you from zero to master in IT and DevOps. Nothing in this video is financial advice since I'm not a financial advisor. I'm an IT guy who's going to teach you some technical details about Monero as a service in Linux, the p2pool software to run the mining pool side chain and xmrig, some mining software that's required in order to start mining. Also, I trust you know the laws of your local juristiction. This is for education and information purposes only.

Build xmrig on Linux

Hi all, So, I am getting into the crypto-mining space a bit and I wanted to share a few things I've learned. This whole experience has been teaching me a lot as of late! In this post, we'll be talking about xmrig what it is and how to compile it on Linux. I'm going to skip the wallet and other details as I wanted this post to be as context-specific and straight to the point as possible. Let's dive right in. What is xmrig??? My take on this is xmrig is a swiss army knife of a mininig tool that can be used for many algorithms and various coins. I mostly found and used this to mine Monero (XMR), so we'll take that as an example. xmrig supports both CPU and GPU minining, but not all algorithms are CPU- or GPU- friendly. Some are specific to either, so be mindful of what you are doing when you are setting this up. Let's dive into the build and running instructions and examples. Building xmrig I happen to be using d...

Pulseaudio: Multi-User Setup

Hello and welcome to my blog. If you are finding this page, then you might be in a similar situation I found myself when I wanted to share audio with different apps if they were being used by different user accounts on your local *nix machine when using Pulse audio. Credits to Eli Billauer and Dhole for the configuration directives I needed to make this possible. The Problem I have multiple user accounts on my system that run various apps, like my web browser, chat apps, email and more. I don't like everything running as myself and try to create a user account with just enough privileges to do what it needs to do. Pulseaudio (herein "Pulse") runs as myself when my desktop environment starts. Apps that run normally need to connect to Pulse in some fashion in order to listen to the microphone or play audio on the speakers. When the apps all run as the logged in user, this works great. When the apps run as someone else, this doesn't work or is inconsistent...
