Marcelino Veloso III

I'm a lawyer, developer, and a consultant based in the Philippines. And this is my collection of tils, how-tos, and notes.

The last time I tried a personal blog was the dawn of the internet. Google was a startup, Geocities was still alive, and Dreamweaver was a thing.

I started to code again in 2019ish, sometime after law school. This is an attempt to write words, to remember code, in the futile hope that I don't forget them.
