On the "slowdown with old battery" issue, does an old iPhone speed up when it's connected to a charger. P.S. Just asking out of curiosity, in case someone has an old device and wants to run benchmarks.

Genuinely curious : What's a good alternative to setting a population limit per city ? Having lived in cities that are crumbling under poor infrastructure, unchecked growth, excessive pollution (from vehicles, stuck in endless traffic

Thanks for the tip. It seems that ghostery's issue was fixed in August [1]. The latest version of ghostery does not block Stripe elements. Preventing an extension update isn't straight forward so we are left wondering if there&#x2

We are able to capture the error / stack with vanilla JS. Tried sentry too. Wondering how would it help in debugging. What we have is the error message and the user agent but unable to reproduce the same problem unless we no more about

Slightly OT : With Stripe elements, we noticed an error in about 5% of the requests, something like "Stripe is not defined". Some of these errors were traced to older browsers with JS issues that couldn't execute " https

D-link makes reasonable wifi cameras that can be used for home security and they double as baby monitors. You can buy 5-7 of them for the price of a single Nest camera. They have motion/sound detection (lot can be improved though). Mob
