The Sons of Kahn and the Witch of Wookey • The Register
Posted by jpluimers on 2016/05/20
Verily, they did make support for the Internet of Things.
As always, brilliant writing. For instance:
- “But there was also the Youth Faction, who were indeed very young, some being barely in their mid-forties.”
- “Ask a Delphic question, get a Delphic answer” –

Official Gmail Blog: Introducing Gmail Mic Drop – April 1st retracted because of too much of a success
Posted by jpluimers on 2016/04/01
The Mic Drop button worked so well (besides confusing the heck out of many people, it sometimes even got activated while sending a normal email) that GMail has retracted their April 1st joke.
What a prank (:

The latest innovation from the media – CommitStrip: @WIRED and @parool are out
Posted by jpluimers on 2016/03/24
Fun: The latest innovation from the media | CommitStrip: block visitors that use adblockers.
The real fun: the first comments G+ re-share “The end of the ad-blocking wars (and some media)” are from people that exactly do what’s in the third frame: bye bye adblock-blocker site.
For good reason too: viewing ads has become a clear and present danger to our security and privacy.
I won’t even bother trying ad-blocker-blocker-blockers.
- If a site blocks me, they’re out.
- If they don’t block me, I share their interesting information with attribution.
- If they have a cookie wall that prevents seeing what I want to share, they’re out too.
@WIRED and @parool are out for reasons 1 and 3.

What is 1e100.net? – Google Help

LOL:
Most typical Internet users will never see 1e100.net, but we picked a Googley name for it just in case (1e100 is scientific notation for 1 googol).

After getting the pronunciation of bear wrong for the umpteenth time and searched for bear beer tear pear peer and more, I came across the below poem often wrongly attributed to George Bernard Shaw but in fact written by a Dutch guy: Gerard Nolst Trenité and called The Chaos.
Some videos: Bernard Shaw Poem English Pronunciation.

So mean and yet so many people that think it can work.
Hopefully they one day read: html – RegEx match open tags except XHTML self-contained tags – Stack Overflow
