Hello, World! Je suis Lee Pai Long a.k.a Saidina MOHAMED ALI.
A senior software engineer specialized in Python(Flask, Django).
I use Linux as my main OS, love Git, I'm learning React for front-end development,
PostgreSQL is my go to database, Docker my container runtime, AWS my cloud provider of choice,
and Pulumi, the framework for cloud provisioning and Ansible/Ansistrano for VM provisioning / app deployment.

Some time ago, I chose software engineering as my Kung-fu.
Since then I have tried to achieve knowledge and skills through patience and practice.

The way I try to learn is deeply linked to the Shu Ha Ri concept.

Shu Ha Ri is a Japanese martial art concept, and describes the stages of learning to mastery.
The word shuhari roughly translates to "first learn, then detach, and finally transcend."

Shu: The disciple learns the fundamentals by following the rules issued by the master.

Ha: Having mastered the fundamentals, the disciple applies the rules by questioning them,
understanding their subtleties and seeking exceptions.

Ri: The disciple having mastered the rules, can transcend and adapt them to their needs/desires.

In Computer Science / Software engineering, the Ha is sometimes
referred to as the the journeyman, and the journey never ends...

So I try to learn, then adapt to the requirements, I try to be like water:

Be like water making its way through cracks.
Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it.
If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.
Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water.
If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup.
You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle.
You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot.
Now, water can flow or it can crash.
Be water, my friend.
