Who else is enjoying the BTC fall graph?
Speculative stocks/assets are the first to go in the context of the upcoming big market correction.
The next fall that will bring even more joy would be the fall of TSLA (and Musk).

OK, it seems some aggressive crawlers from China have found a way to jump around Cloudflare's captcha. Three ASN have been trashing one of my projects, www.libhunt.com, for about week. At the same time, all three ASNs were included in a rule requiring a captcha. They have a direct block now.

A lot of people have been choosing Hetzner VPS servers these days. Same here. I love how affordable they are. They also offer amongst the best performance. Yet, I have two issues with them.
1) You need to request in advance your resources. Let's say that's OKish with some planning.

I did a "quick" domain name ownership reconciliation this weekend. Through the years, names have been flowing from GoDaddy => Namecheap => Porkbun.
Anyhow, my total annual cost is $872. And, I think I won't be able to action the ideas behind all of them.

True
It’s better to be extremely different along one dimension, winning all customers who care most about that dimension, even if that means you’re worse in all other dimensions.
True or false? Is that a strategy you want to employ?

Worse, but unique
An objectively “worse” strategy can win, if it leverages something unique or unexpected. Startups can use this concept to beat incumbents.

Did I share how disappointed I am from iOS 26? Yes, there are several features that are useful and nice; HOWEVER, the new design and UX is so much worse compared to the old one.

Liquid Glass Is Cracked, and Usability Suffers in iOS 26
iOS 26’s visual language obscures content instead of letting it take the spotlight. New (but not always better) design patterns replace established conventions.
