Yes, but the bigger problem for the US will be millions of customers abroad who will stop buying the US products and services. Also, we may see additional restrictions on the American business abroad. For example, the EU may impose 30% taxes on Apple or Meta.

It's always a bad idea to start a trade war with your neighbors and allies, especially when you get rid of immigrants doing hard work for small wages. Ultimately, customers in the US will find themselves paying more for products.

We will end up with american customers paying 25% more for avocados. And the same can be said for many, many other products.

I won't be surprised if the EU will impose tariffs on Apple, Meta and other American companies considering the new US policy.

I've been working with WP VIP on a few projects. As a hosting, it's not that great and has a lot of limitations. A dedicated server with Cloudflare will work much better in a fraction of costs.

I use both. Strict comparison may lead to unexpected issues, but makes the code behavior more predictable.

I had one back in the days... and still remember all 9 digits 😁

Thank you! By the way, are there any updates regarding using CSS properties in @media queries? Or to create some named queries like --media-desktop: (min-width: 1024px) and then use it like @media (--media-desktop)? I was trying to replace SASS with that a while ago.

Thank you for the suggestion! It's not perfect, but looks nice. My biggest concern at this point is mostly the browser support, especially on iOS (caniuse.com/css-relative...). Are there any workarounds for old devices? I assume, that they will simply ignore that values.

The most useful one is rgba(). Unfortunately, it's not possible to pass a HEX color as a property to rgba() in plain CSS. As for SASS, I do not support their approach with breaking compatibility with the previous versions. That's not acceptable.

It makes sense to consider Cloudflare. You can set up an account, add those domains and use a Free plan for each of them. Also, it makes sense to enable the proxy option for them to eliminate a need for the SSL certificates.

I wonder if Intel will allow D2D and NGU overclocking for the mobile HX platform without BIOS decompression and NVRAM tweaks. Yes, I still remember how they locked my 12900HK with the microcode update two years ago.

Launching a store always take a lot of time, especially on WooCommerce. With Shopify this process is faster, but you will pay more later in fees and much more if you need some really custom stuff.

It depends on what you're doing. If the business is fine with the features Shopify offers out of the box, that will be a better choice. But if you need to have something custom, Woo is a better choice. And the more complex feature is, the better choice WooCommerce will be. It's much easier to extend

That's because they use different data structure. Technically, it's possible to make them fully compatible, but it will require writing some custom code.
December 30, 2024 at 5:54 PM
That's why I prefer going full custom with WooCommerce. It takes more time to launch a project, but way easier to maintain and extend.

I prefer using more complex integrations with Brevo and Klaviyo. Setting up an abandoned cart automation is very simple there.

The main advantage of WooCommerce + Subscriptions is the full control over the subscriptions. For most payment options (except PayPal Standard and a few other ones), it charges customers directly using the saved payment token.

As for security, just set up Cloudflare Pro and some managed rulesets.
