I think an important thing you can learn from this story is that you should keep your backup on a different host(s) or better even have replication enabled. In these days, most apps generally can be migrated to a new host in seconds as long

I've been using adguard dns for a while and while it's an amazing service for mobile, the thing I don't like about it is that it's super aggressive at blocking malware sites and sometimes even blocks legit sites with no

I think a very easy way to mitigate that problem is by using something like siteground that mantains and optimizes that for you. I don't have direct experience with then myself but that's what I've heard most successful wp bl

An indirect thing you can learn from this example is that how little code quality matters when it comes to product popularity or revenue. WordPress and its plugins are most often cited as examples of bad code and to top it off it is written

I've been forever looking for something that can do this in WhatsApp because that's the only app that in my whitelist (android). How much battery does your app consume? I'm a total miser when it comes to my phone battery and

Why doesn't Google treat all websites that load under 100ms at par with an AMP site? They keep using the ruse that AMP is important because it is all about fast loading sites and less frustrating user experience but they have page spee

I think you should analyze the source of traffic first. Install Google webmaster tools to get the list of top keywords your site is ranking for. GWT tells you the exact number of impressions/clicks which first of all confirm if the tra

Yes Recaptcha needs a lot of work before it becomes usable again. It's not super friendly for humans and just as easy for bots to break failing miserably on both ends. I've also noticed that Google search has become a lot less fri

Some payment processors on this list are 100 times more evil than Paypal and do all the things you hate about Paypal but worse. Story time: The biggest offender in my limited experience in dealing with some alternatives is 2checkout. Please

Also the low cost TLDs on namecheap are such a scam, especially the .host TLD. They are like $1 for first year and 20x or even 100x for the 2nd year onwards. So it's best to check the cost for 5 years before you fall for the $1 trap.

I used to believe the same, how can someone offer a VPN service with a lifetime deal? How can they predict my bandwidth usage? Maybe there will be a fine print wrt usage. Long story short I decided to buy a service called Windscribe 2 years

Really good to see more banks who are open to international customers. Your website is also super sleek. Definitely going to switch from SVB to you guys if things work out!

You can have a look at chocolatey ( https://chocolatey.org ) in addition to ninite for installing programs. Also though not directly related to your question but in case you're running Windows 10, then do take a look at this

Makes me wonder if there exists an OS that is truly written from scratch designed for only modern hardware and devoid of all backward compatibility and bloat (like the JS frameworks ditching support for msie). It would be certainty a very i

Yes people who are depressed can think like this and such illogical thoughts may sound true when you're feeling down compounding the sadness. This exercise helps you rip apart each such illogical thought and shows you how irrational an

A very good addition to this app would be the vertical arrow technique outlined in David Burns book. It's basically when you drill down a thought by asking "what if it is true" and then write the distortion for every thought

The cynic in me thinks that everything being said and done right now is because of upcoming elections. I started thinking like this after I learned the whole demonetization fiasco was just to win the UP elections. Nonetheless it does feel b

I guess that makes most sense that they are hosted on their own servers and not cloud. I'd also bet it's mostly a database thing. Better to not let users write anything new than to lose their data which I'm sure would cause m

These are some tools that help structure ideas. 1. Trello: most obvious one i suppose but it's still as useful as the day it came out. 2. Workflowy: one of the more recent tools I've found. I like it because it's 100% keyboar

I can't say about others but since I know a bit about programming I think programming is more about experience than intelligence or iq. I think it's like any other skill that we hone with time and at least in my case we subconscio

Somebody recently asked a question on a forum that if you had $100m dollars would you still be coding? I think this project definitely answers the kind of coding I'd be doing :)
