   npm is full of gotchas as I encountered one recursive bug today. I realize that can put 'npm' as one of the dependency packages in package.json It did not complain, suddenly it downloaded 400+ packages. How about a typo? malicious

   Keep CGK, Insert SIN, replace NRT with TPE, JFK with YYZ, then add CGK again after that. That is my life :-) Nice to meet you, Chris. We are in similar journey. Maybe I will add another destination after this, see how life goes. Brabel, I m

   AV was good enough for me, better than the competitors. Suddenly google came, it was faster, I switched to google and never looked back. Google was simple on those days, I wish I can bring back that experience.

   HN is addictive for me, similar to Instagram and TikTok for others. business only policy, during 9-5. no news/socialmedia, cannot discuss irrelevant issues with my cofounder. Otherwise, I can go into rabbit holes for hours to research

    Observe the actions, not the words. If you are confused, most probably it is a scam, trust your instinct. It takes time for everything to unravel. quoted from: richajak, the not-so-wise man

    I may consider eleventy in the future as it also supports EJS. It is the template language that I am most familiar, no context switching for my brain. My blogging platform is simply some EJS files glued together with Express. super simple.

    Same observation, from my cats, as I do not have kids. Whenever they come, the cats will meaow right away, as they do not have delayed gratification. They also want fairness, otherwise they will attack each other. The food has to be given a

    I haven't progressed that much in my CMS, :-) still in-progress. It is not as simple as I think. In addition to the typical blog implementation, I also add extra features. For example, I included multi-lingual functionality as I wanted

    The movie Contagion was surreal for first few months during this pandemic. Whether it is due to survival bias, or any other reasons, the script writer managed to be so accurate. Hitting several high notes in one stroke is not an easy task.

    Thanks, finally someone agree with my observation. :-) I got deduction point for saying that statement. For me, it is not right to use 100x speed increase for eye candy feature or using bloated Javascript libraries.

    I think they eventually have to release all ammunitions that they have. It is not a good sign, it means that they are desperate, it is their last chance, live or die. We should not be complacent that everything will be ok. They need to main

    I have been reading the review of those two books for last 30 min. If I were to read them several years ago, I would think that she's just another sci-fi novel author. The story feels 'normal', another survivor group story. H
