I wouldn't say that the figure of Facebook friends is an indication of number of people I really cared. I do care some of them (sometimes sending wishes for them), but a majority of them are either my classmate in high school, a junior

This is probably the reason I was trying to limit my friend count to the very minimal figure (a little over 100), as I wanted to share my story to those who cared to listen to it. Though since Facebook started to deploy Discovery Engine, I

I used to do this to keep my feed concise, only showing posts my friends interacted with (I don't follow any pages), but recently it has become more or less useless. Facebook decided that it wanted to show content that might catch inte

I have a strange case about this. Several years ago I was looking for a job. I found a listing for a position in a company and apply for it, then it went silence for a couple of weeks. I later searched for a posting that seems to be identic

There is also a Mattala Airport at the south of the country, funded by loans from China. Yet, there hasn't been much use of it, and it pretty much lose its intended purpose. I used to visit Sri Lanka in 2013, with the outbound flight m

Even though factors relating to the overcrowded prison may come into play, I tend to believe the actual reason is to appease base voters. Current Minister of Public Health is the leader of a political party whose campaign in 2019 election r

At least that's what Thailand's IP Authority explained to the public. Many Thai people are outraged of what they saw as a "ripoff" of sauce (purportedly) made in Sriracha, but marketed by foreign companies. The authority

And now I wish Thai producers step in and market the true Sriracha sauce. For context, Sriracha is a name of a district in Thailand. As it is classified as geographical name, it cannot be registered as a trademark on its own in both Thailan

I remember seeing the IA banner at around Q4 of each year. Sometimes they noted that the amount will be 100% or 200% matched by other generous donors, so any amount donated will have more impact. [1] is an example of the banner. [1] https:

It's actually possible to fine-tune it by category of notification (Settings > Notifications, either in app or on the web). I turned off Reminder, Friend Updates, and People You May Know, leaving only the notification on things I in
