The Truth Behind Christmas - Carlie Brown


Of course, that's why we don't celebrate this event, unlike the many religions out there. And yes, we are Christians.

Asking the right questions

For QA's and developers, it is essential to know how to reproduce a bug so it can be effectively fixed. In order to do this, you need to ask the right questions.

From this article, here's the guide to asking the right questions:

  • What version of software is being used?
  • What operating system is being used?
  • What patches are employed on the operating system?
  • What is the hardware configuration?
  • What is the actual error message?
  • What happened just prior to the problem occurring?
  • Any other proprietary information that might be relevant?
  • Is the problem reproducible? If so, what steps were taken to reproduce the problem?

Are you addicted to Facebook games? If yes, then you know Zynga. It's the creator of famous Facebook games, and their games is actually 4 of the top 5 games. Here's a list of the top 12 Facebook games in case you are wondering (like me lol). Are your games among the top 12?

Incidentally, Zynga is also in the news not just because of the games but because of how they are running the company. It really surprised me that such company with good game products will treat their employees this way. More of the story here.

Pizza Hut's Tuscani Pizza

The first time I saw the Pizza Hut Tuscani Pizza ad, I thought it’s just all talk, because it was an ad. Though admittedly, I was intrigued by what they’re saying that it’s unlike any thin crust pizza. I’m a pizza lover and I’m skeptical since all thin crust pizza that I’ve tried is not enough to satisfy my hunger. Due to my schedule, I have put trying it out at the bottom of my list. Until a friend told me about it again. She kept on raving that my curiosity was piqued and I scheduled to give myself a break and have a pizza day with my mom. Lunch, we went to Pizza Hut’s branch in Festival Mall in Alabang. It is located in the ground floor, just near the Alabang-Zapote entrance. Being seated by a courteous crew, we sat and I asked her the Tuscani pizza menu.  Choosing the right flavor for that first taste is not hard, I just chose the flavor with the most yummy toppings, and I ended up choosing Supremo. The crew even said it was a good choice. The wait is not that long as we were kept busy by the on-the-house garlic bread.

When the pizza is brought to our table, I can’t believe that it’s sooo full of toppings. I then took a slice, and the first bite is heaven. The pizza is deliciously juicy, the toppings are really good. I’m a picky eater and don’t usually eat bell peppers but the bell peppers in this pizza is real juicy. I can’t believe that I’m eating a thin crust pizza because the toppings are like of a thick crust pizza, minus the thickness of the crust which made the pizza more enticing to eat. And I can’t believe that with just two slices, I already felt full and satisfied. It usually takes 4 thin sliced pizza before I can feel the fullness. Surely, Tuscani Pizza is now one of my favorites, a must-try for all pizza lovers out there. For me, this deserves a spoon rating of 9/10. 

  

Trivia: Did you know where the name Pizza Hut originated? According to Wiki, it has been named "Pizza Hut" since the sign the owners purchased only had enough space for nine characters and spaces.
