Great to see this open source project getting some attention despite not having the backing of a giant corporation like Facebook or Google. I’m a fan and (even more remarkably) a sponsor.

You don’t need no steenking Virtual Dom—or any framework junk actually—to do your single page application. Just use what JavaScript can already do out of the box, tagged template literals.

Electric vehicles have been touted since well before internal combustion engines were common. A fleet of electric cabs were proposed for London in the 1880s.

So what happened? Why did it take so long for electric vehicles to become a thing.

Forget conspiracy theories and “roads not taken” type historical speculation. The reasons were always technical. The main reason being energy density. Nothing comes close to petrol in terms of joules per cubic metre. Certainly not a lead-acid battery in 1912. A century later and we are only now in a place where batteries can compete.

Petroleum sucks but when looked at from the point of view of what it made possible, it was and remains a miracle substance.

FACT: you are not smart enough to not use two-factor authentication on your primary email.

If you are targeted by a spear-phishing operation, you will fail.

If you lose control of your primary email address, you will also lose control (via lost password recovery) of all your online accounts and probably of your phone and other devices as well.

You don’t need to be famous or important to be a target of a spear-phishing operation. Thanks to countless data leaks over the past decade, your identity has already been leaked to hackers. It’s not a question of if but when.

Use two-factor authentication.
