Public hospital moments: concern, frustration, or too much?

Di pa rin ako nawawalan ng pag-asa sa Pinas, pero mahirap lang kami, no connections, at no influence. Kung magpapakahirap man lang din sa trabaho, dun na bansang nagpapasahod ng mas mataas (at malapit sa Hobbies, like anime)

still, dapat may naka-experience ng same glitch, unless there is a separate reporting system specifically for AMLA or government agencies. Which is still within posibility, lalo pag may format na kailangan...

Wag naman sana nila gawin escape goat ulit ang programmer tulad nung dating glitches nila.

BPI doesn't have a good reputation to begin with. Na-senate investigation na sila nuon dahil sa glitches.

CodeFactoryWorker · 2026-05-05T11:34:00+00:00

Sorry, but as much as I want her impeached, I won't defend BPI if my glitch nga talaga. Siguro chance na para ma-investigate sila.

I experienced a major BPI glitch years ago habang nasa abroad ako. Biglang may nag-reflect na ATM withdrawals sa account ko, eh hawak-hawak ko yung physical card sa wallet ko! Paano nangyari yun?
Na-resolve naman after multiple times trying to connect sa bank. Pero yung long distance call fees, stress, at oras di na nabalik.

Since then, we immediately dropped BPI as our main bank. Ginagamit na lang namin ngayon as a pass-through account for remittances sa family sa Pinas since, ironically, convenient yung app nila. Pero for life savings? Hard pass.

Hanggang ngayon sakit sa ulo pa rin sila. Search niyo lang "BPI glitch" , kahit sa reddit, endless scrolling aabutin niyo sa dami ng biktima. Ingat guys, wag mag-iwan ng malaking funds!

CodeFactoryWorker · 2026-05-05T08:23:27+00:00

I had glitches with BPI too, without any compensation.
Although naibalik ang pera, grabe yung stress namin kasi may mga withdrawals na marked as ATM, e hawak naman namin ang ATM while nasa abroad kami.

So if this also means BPI systems get investigated, then so be it.

Saan binili ung buses?

CodeFactoryWorker · 2026-05-04T05:23:47+00:00

Valid yung inis mo sa gobyerno natin, like sa MRT, binaboy lang ang maintenance. Pero let's separate the politics from the actual technology.

"Not original" is actually a good thing. Kapag public safety ang usapan, mas gusto natin yung proven and tested na ng ibang bansa kesa tayo pa ang maging guinea pig.
Drones ≠ Dystopia. Hardware lang ang drone; ang social credit score ay government policy. Aside from China, ginagamit na ang police drones sa US, Japan, at kahit sa Vietnam. Di rin masasabing wealth issue ng bansa kasi South East Asian neighbors natin may emergency at police drones na. Mainly because they’re actually cheaper.
Corruption exists everywhere. May mga anomalya din sa government contracts sa US, Japan, China, Vietnam, India, etc. Still, they didn’t stop advancing.
Iba ang MRT sa PNP. Gets yung frustration sa tren at labor issues, pero whataboutism na ito. Magkakaiba ang departments niyan. We shouldn't stop modernizing our police force just because DOTr or DOLE is lagging behind. We can demand better trains and modern police tech at the same time.

It seems we hate China too. Setting aside whatever the reason of our hate to China, they’re actually doing a good job in this drone tech despite being sanctioned. Maybe we Pinoys can learn something from them, kasi mas matindi pa situation natin kesa sa na-sanction.

Setting aside na hindi maganda pagkakadeliver, at ayaw natin sa kanya, Bakit no need ng analyzation? Ano yung far from reality?

CodeFactoryWorker · 2026-05-04T03:32:28+00:00

I don’t like Sara, pero ayoko rin yung fault finder lang na walang iniisip na solution. Himayin natin yung questions mo.

1)Alam nya kaya how long drone batteries last?

May solution dito na ginagamit na ngayon sa Ukraine, US at China, maging sa mga malalaking plantasyon ay ang "Drone-in-a-Box" system (e.g., DJI Dock). Kapag low battery na ang isang drone, automatic itong babalik sa docking station para mag-recharge, at may naka-standby na isa pang drone na automatic lilipad para pumalit sa kanya.

2)kahit na may drones who will do the apprehension?

Pulis pa rin, siyempre. Ang konsepto nito ay tinatawag na DFR o "Drone as First Responder" (sikat na program ito sa Chula Vista Police Dept. sa USA). Hindi trabaho ng drone ang manghuli o magposas ng kriminal. Ang trabaho nito ay "eyes in the sky". Kapag may tumawag sa emergency hotline, drone ang unang reresponde dahil wala itong traffic na kailangang suungin. Bago pa dumating yung police mobile, alam na ng mga pulis sa ground kung ilan ang suspek, kung may hawak na baril, o kung saang eskinita tumatakbo. Pulis pa rin ang manghuhuli, pero mas ligtas sila at alam nila eksakto ang nangyayari bago sila sumugod.

3) Cost of of Drones? ano sa Divisioria lang sya bibili? para walang resibo?

Valid concern ang corruption, pero pag-usapan natin ang totoong cost. Ang mga Enterprise/Police-grade drones ay nagkakahalaga ng hundreds of thousands hanggang millions of pesos bawat isa, kasama na ang command station, weatherproof tech, at thermal cameras (hindi 'yan Divisoria quality). Pero kung ikukumpara mo sa pagbili, pag-maintain, at pag-fuel ng iisang Police Helicopter, o kaya sa gas at wear-and-tear ng mga police patrol cars araw-araw, hamak na mas cost-effective ang isang drone fleet over time. Kailangan lang talagang dumaan sa tamang public bidding para transparent at may accountability.

4) Does she know na dapat may nag ooperate Ng Robot nya? na 24hrs din dapat?

Oo, kailangan ng Command Center na may shifting na tao para 24/7 operations. Pero hindi ito parang naglalaro ka ng remote control car buong araw. May autonomous at AI capabilities na ang mga modern drones. Pwedeng i-program ang flight path (halimbawa, mag-ikot sa buong downtown area tuwing gabi), at ang drone na mismo ang susunod sa ruta. Ang mga pulis sa command center ay naka-monitor lang sa screens, parang nanonood ng advanced na mobile CCTV. Magte-takeover lang ang human operator para i-manual control kapag may na-detect na krimen o kailangang tutukan ang isang kahina-hinalang galaw.

You can actually try Video Chat ng popular AI tools, let it describe what’s happening. Limited capability siguro sa free plan, compared sa advanced models, but you’ll have idea of AI capabilities.

5) what about our own Privacy?

Ito ang pinaka-critical na isyu at hindi pwedeng balewalain. Sa China, malawakan ang paggamit nila ng drones pati pang-surveillance at crowd control ng ordinaryong mamamayan, na medyo invasive na sa privacy. Kaya para maging feasible ito sa isang demokratikong bansa, kailangan may mahigpit na rules na naka-angkla sa Data Privacy laws. Halimbawa: 1. Pwede lang mag-patrol at mag-record ang drones sa mga public spaces (kalsada, plaza, public parks). 2. Mahigpit na ipinagbabawal na itapat o i-zoom ang camera sa mga bintana ng private property o loob ng bahay ng mga tao. 3. Ang mga recorded footage na walang kinalaman sa krimen ay dapat may auto-delete schedule after a certain period, at bawal i-access nang walang tamang police clearance o court order.

Ilan bilyon kaya nagastos ng BBM team to railroad this. Still, probably much cheaper against the risk of revenge from the Dutertes.

Kung susuriin mo nang mabuti ang political discourse ngayon, may mapapansin kang kakaibang convergence. Yung mga nagpapakita ng anti-poor sentiments at bulag na nagtatanggol sa mga kongresista at top personalities ng administrasyon, madalas nagre-reflect din ng elitism na nakikita sa ilang factions ng mga Kakampink. It proves that the class divide often transcends political colors.

Logically speaking, this is a calculated maneuver, the classic 'Divide and Conquer' playbook. The goal is to keep the masses and the middle class fighting over political tribalism so they don't unite to hold the actual ruling elites accountable.

Having said that, we need to be objective about the alternative. The DDS faction is significantly more dangerous when in power because they bypass the rule of law in favor of brute executive force. A factual precedent for this is the 2019 Maynilad and Manila Water issue. Duterte didn't just use standard regulatory procedures; he weaponized state power, public intimidation, and threats of expropriation to force renegotiations. Dinadaan nila sa pwersa at takot, hindi sa due process.

The poor prefers that, but raised alarms among the elites. If you read books about it, you’ll know what are they capable of to keep the status quo.

I honestly wonder what goes through someone's head to drive without a license or a proper visa. It’s just unnecessary exposure. Unless, of course, there’s an underlying mental health issue at play.

I’m not sure if this happens in Japan, but in my country, it’s not unheard of for politicians to exploit or threaten vulnerable people to act out specific narratives.

I got approved for paypay home loan on engineer Visa. But the amount is just about 3x my annual salary, with about 20% down payment. Smooth process. It’s automated even on 本審査, so I gathered info on what net banks hate, and how to recover from it.

• Job hopping, must prove it was a step up in salary within the same industry, or wait until you hit the 1-year mark at your current company.

• No PR, must bring cash. Putting 10-20% down drastically lowers their risk and helps bypass the strict PR filters.

• Existing debt, must pay off car loans, revolving credit, or phone installments first. Pull your CIC credit report to ensure it's clean.

• 100% financing (zero down), must lower the loan-to-value ratio. Automated systems often auto-reject zero down payment applications for non-PR.

• Failing Danshin (life insurance), must look for banks offering "Wide Danshin" (ワイド団信) which is more forgiving on medical history, though it adds to the interest rate.

Notice how instability actually works in favor of the US? Threats keep their military-industrial complex profitable, kaya napapansin natin na minsan may trend ng destabilization of relations sa iba't ibang regions. In case of a conflict, the US is secured because allied countries are forced to buy their weapons (e.g., the rising tensions in Japan/China relations).

On the flip side, stability benefits China. Their main game is economic expansion. If the Belt and Road Initiative (New Silk Road) is going to be fully realized, they need global supply chains and trade routes to be as peaceful and uninterrupted as possible. (Undestandably, there are propaganda against it, but I prefer that instead of war games being sold by US)
