You are mixing up 2 things. Paul Karason had a syndrome called 'argyria' from dietary supplements. The article you link mentions that. The Fugate family has the methemoglobinemia condition. They can be 'cured' with methy

I think what you want, at least on the mobile Google Calendar app is under: Settings - General - Use device time zone If you disable this, you'll keep everything pinned to your preferred timezone. But I'm pretty sure a better appr

It was surprising to me, but our TV's remote control is able to pauze/play/stop the Chromecast. That's generally faster than using your phone. Edit: FWIW it's a Sony TV.

It was likely PHP 5. The last PHP 4 release is more than 10 years old [1]. Later versions of PHP 5 were worlds apart from version 4. [1] http://php.net/supported-versions.php

Unity still works perfectly fine on 18.04 for me. There is still some maintenance going on, so it can be an ok choice for the near future.

Simple layout and fast loading time: big plus. I think the copy could be better. Put more focus on the strengths. Don't use the link-blue color if it isn't a link. About the PDF results: I get mobile versions of websites a lot, bu

I think I should have said: the accidental paste is irrelevant here. It will always be troublesome if you paste secrets in the wrong place (especially if it takes it to the network). When you run make.exe some-program-that-uses-aws YOUR_AWS

So when you paste your secrets by mistake into your browsers' instant-search box, you blame your browser for sending that data over the network?

My XPS 13 (second gen) had much better battery life with (what sounds) similar usage. - you have a recent kernel? Also, 4.17 should bring battery-related improvements - did you install TLP[0]? [0] http://linrunner.de/en&#x2F

You are right about high-touch sales in my case. I indeed provide guidelines to 'install the website as an app'. This works every time. Not because the guidelines are that good, but because in reality it seems to be quite easy for

Depends on the audience. My small SaaS business never had a native app. 'Installation' of the PWA was never an issue (for SMB owners). Cache invalidation is hard though.

When I see things like dayjs().diff(dayjs(), 'years'); I get an uncomfortable feeling. That's an awkward question to answer (except in some informal approximation contexts maybe). I see a part of the milliseconds to X

Slightly related: try to sync an external calendar feed in iCalendar format (also used in CalDAV) with Google Calendar. Google Calendar will use random intervals to synchronize. Often taking more than 24 hours... which is, in most use cases

Great to learn about this. Thanks for mentioning! Do you think it still has the same usefulness? It looks quite chaotic to shift through ~8 years of unmaintained information. Back then I can imagine you could basically contact everyone on t
