    Strong disagree. I forgot to renew a domain a while ago and contacted their customer support. They asked $150 for a domain renewal. Registered domain somewhere else for $10. Moved …

    His performance in US version of “Whose line is it anyway” is the funniest I’ve seen on that show. https://youtu.be/b-r4Flc_d2M?si=tUJEl-i1eSa00t4_

    Subscribed to Literary review print magazine for 2 reasons. Firstly, it’s like TIL but in print version. Secondly, it’s a relief to read something interesting unrelated to IT on a …

    You can make it as useless and as powerful as you want. I have worked on many projects and developers loved it (no joke). But it was down to having it properly setup and using just…

    well apple could use vr + ar to enhance your experience, provided that your partner agrees to that, and that could potentially be a winner's recipe. But you know what's the limitat…

    Off-topic but thank you for mentioning WSET. It's the first time I've heard about it. In UK, there's something basic offered by bbc: https://www.bbcmaestro.com/courses/jancis-robin…
