I think it was more of a half baked lock down that caused the economy to get worse, and yet hardly see any improvement at curbing the pandemic. Countries like Vietnam were very protective, and took very immediate actions. They faced both t

Exactly what I wanted to say too. I was born Buddhist, studied at two Buddhist schools, and we were practicing meditation every day for nearly 90% of the year. Reading that this person practiced Dhyana sounded very odd and irresponsible. Wh

Good for them! I've been using Redmi (a sub-brand of Xiaomi, using same MIUI Android variant) Note 2,4,6,8, now 10, and I will buy 12 when it arrives too. I also use their power banks, fitness trackers, and even toothbrushes from Mijia

I have a $25-ish Xiaomi 20,000 mAh power bank. It is thicc and can crush your toes if you drop, but it's reliable to hold power enough for a week for my phone, has two outputs supporting fast charging, and has microUSB _and_ USB-c inpu

This honestly sounds like a major inconvenience to both developers and users, by adding a virtual DOM, 30kb of unnecessary JS, and unnecessary consent check boxes that I wouldn't agree anyway. How is the impact of slower and heavier we

This is so true! Most of the in-house data centers I had seen had Windows and they didn't really bother to even think about changing. It's totally different from cloud service providers, that some of them don't even provide a

Excuse my rant about this free piece of content, but this is one of those sites that render the reading experience horrifying with giant subscribe and menu bars. It feels like reading something on a smartwatch is more easier.

Browsers send the Accept headers, and I have configured my CDN to return a plain text page for static assets (that users wouldn't see on the browser), but text/html requests get a useful 10-20 kb response. Should be a trivial thin

Oh this brings memories of my Windows 98 tweaks and linear gradients in title bars. I'm afraid that's the peak of customizability and it's only going downhill in each operating system version.

Neverssl has done some pretty nifty work to avoid caching. It redirects you to a random subdomain over plain HTTP just to make sure the browser has a cold cache. Maintaining a domain, the redirects, and making sure to _not_ accidentally obt

Firefox abandoning the more powerful XUL to web extensions resulted in a lot of extensions going away because there are not useable APIs. On the other hand, I would feel relatively safer to install a web extensions than a XUL nowadays becau

I love Firefox ethos, Firefox keeps redesigning itself over and over, and this time, for the worse. I have a 400 LOC userChrome.css file because the new redesign was barely usable since Firefox beta received this makeover. - There is no tab
