People forgetting to renew happens frequently too. Now what's more rare, Google banning someone for no reason or a person forgetting to renew and losing its domain?


Also forgetting to setup 2FA with the registrar, forgetting to setup whois privacy on the domain, forgetting to turn on transfer locks. Domains with their short term leases and meant-to-be-easy transfers between/among too many lowest common denominator, cost cutting providers and a technical standard/backend ripe for easy accidental dox leaks are an interesting case of almost built to cause social engineering attacks, in too many different ways.

Not that any of the alternatives to DNS have yet proven to be half as reliable, but it's still fascinating how DNS is both simultaneously our best and worst hope for identity "ownership" on the current internet.


If you care, pay for 10 years in advance, and still extend every year to keep the 10 year rolling window.


I think there's a significant base rate difference.


Use subtitles and the extension Language Reactor. You can translate any sentence or word on the fly.


I have ChatGPT create 20 sentences for a new word I want to learn, works super well with Anki.

Front -> Word. Click button, shows random sentence out of 20.

Back -> Word and sentence translation.


The trouble with ChatGPT is that it can produce wonky sentences sometimes, and as a learner it can be hard to validate that. Most of the time it’s great though, just need to be cautious and ideally find a way to validate the content it generates (in my case I can run it by my wife).

I use ChatGPT to check my answers to the exercises in my textbooks :)


I had ChatGPT fail on basic Spanish sentences, to the point where I with week of Spanish could tell it's wrong (as it, basic grammar was mangled).

I can't recommend it for language learning at all, I'm afraid. :(


Wait...how do you do this in Anki? The randomization part.


Anki supports HTML and JavaScript so technically anything is possible.


Guess you missed the sarcasm.


Sarcasm is generally expected to be suffixed with /s. In this case, significant historical context is required to detect it.


Any way to change that to Shift Command V? For some reason the blog post solution doesn't work on Notion.


Remap with Karabiner (https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org/). I personally mapped right_command + v to it, but it's capable of a straight out remap.


What does it mean for a map to be vector based?


Old but good post on vector maps vs. raster maps from our friends at CARTO: https://carto.com/blog/raster-vs-vector-whats-the-difference...


I believe it means vector-graphics based.


You have to click on I/O at the top when it goes from (0) to (1).


The thing is processes get killed before the IO event appears.


What prevents people (and Apollo) from simply using the same open APIs the the official reddit site/app?

The requests would be all made from a client, so how would they even know it's not their client? Is it illegal? Because I can make any reddit request with a curl, no?

Please educate me.


After lastpass announced you could only have 1 device in the free tier, I was gone too.


Why you wouldn't trust that site?


Especially when the final URL ends in a microsoft.com domain


Hopefully Microsoft does not accept user submitted content
