I was today years old when I learned you can put the path of a component as the component tag in NuxtJS
<CommonCard> -> common/Card.vue
<CommonHeader> -> common/Header.vue
<CommonCard> -> common/Card.vue
<CommonHeader> -> common/Header.vue

this is pretty weird; over the last few days @whatpulse.org is getting a bunch of traffic from Singapore for pages that do not exist 🤔
at first I thought it was a scaping/AI service, but it seems they're only going after `/forums/` pages - which don't exist..

still getting down emails from @uptimerobot which freaks me out
but then the timestamp in the email points to 5 hours earlier 😮💨 (seems they have a backlog of emails)
I wonder how many monitoring emails were sent, would be fun to chart

the funniest thing about this Cloudflare outage is that even if specific websites are online and just fine
..their bot catcher isn't, so you can't access them 😂

TIL that you can't trust that `localStorage` is always going to be accessible
browsers with strict privacy mode on can disable access to it
TIP: wrap it in a custom class that tests if it's available, and falls back to in-memory (so not persistent) storage if needed

there's a scam going around where people email into your support inbox with the claim they were charged and never approved it and want a refund
usually with details that look similar to your service, but definitely aren't

I've taken a bite, see what they ask 🙃

this is amazing, a newspaper used ChatGPT to write a front page article

why @Microsoft?
why the hell did you move actions from a perfectly good location (at the end) to somewhere *no one* is going to expect it?
who's in charge over there? I'd like to speak to the manager
