It seems like foldable phone is the next big thing in the mobile technology. I can image how hard for such tech to be finally realised in real life, and all the phone vendors starts to treat it as a must have feature for next generation of phone. The reaction of crowd was motivating for this cutting-edge of phone as well.

But I just can’t get it. Foldable phone is impressive visually and that’s for sure, however I fail to see how innovative it is in term of functionality. It might change the user experience with ordinary phones, perhaps improve the visual experience slightly. But that is not going to justify the crazyass price tags those vendors put on those phones.

I mean, when the fingerprint sensor was first introduced in mobile phone. It might not received a fanatic response but it was truly innovative to improve the user interaction with their phone. No more password typing and screen sliding during unlocking session. The satisfaction is day and night.

But the ability to halve/double the screen size? Not really.

折叠手机似乎是手机界的最新潮流。根据目前所收到的热烈回响，无可避免的未来好几代手机都会在折叠能力上大做文章。我最这个现象就非常的费解，折叠屏幕的技术实现是很了不起，难度也可想而知。但是它带来的实际用户体验，真的有如它们的价格涨幅之大？

当初指纹解锁在手机上出现的时候似乎没有如今这般的热烈反应，对我而言往回头看，那才是真正划时代的体验升级。从按密码和在屏幕上滑动，到轻轻一按就立马解锁，简直不要太爽。

If I was able to install only one extension on my browser and stay with it for the rest of my life, the answer will definitely be the holy uBlock Origin. It is available on multiple famous browsers and goes ultra popular in the community. Found this very handy extension out not long ago and immediately it beats all the adblockers I’ve been used.

Not only it blocks the annoying ads, it provides some degree of privacy as well. Occasionally it bypassed some country restricted sites for me without even informing me. Every browser vendors should adapt this extension into their build seriously(of course it won’t happen).

要说我只能选一个浏览器的附加应用，并余生与之度过的话，那一定毫无疑问是 uBlock Origin 了。这款我称之为广告拦截神器的应用，小巧之余功能的强大比以往所用过的都还强。而且一定程度上还有保护隐私的用途，也不知不觉的越过了某些地域限定的网站。看看那个下载人数还有那近乎完美的评价，这个神器的受欢迎程度可见一斑。

就不知深受广告之苦的内陆民众有没有机会利用这款利器，还给自己一片干净的天空呢？

A sudden gain of 10B in total marketcap over a week, crash all the accumulated gain within a day, I guess we will be seeing trend like this all year long in 2019. And I’m glad I grew numb towards it. It was obviously manipulated and that has been what the crypto is all about since the beginning. Be it stocks or gold or crypto, it doesn’t really matters as long as the human are behind all these assets.

Human never change.

Being a complete newbie designer very soon I was ran into the famous browser incompatibility issue. There are so many different vendors of browser and each of them read the CSS differently.

  -webkit-transition: background-color 200ms ease, font-size 200ms ease;
  -o-transition: background-color 200ms ease, font-size 200ms ease;
  transition: background-color 200ms ease, font-size 200ms ease;
//these 3 line are reffering the same effect

Autoprefixer is a saviour to this issue. I wasn’t using any CSS preprocesor in the project yet like LESS and SCSS, they might help to resolve this issue beforehand. If you were using plain CSS file like me and asking for least trouble of browser compatibility issue, this handy tool based on autoprefix will helps a lot.

Get my first domain registered for the first time. I’m a not really familiar with the practice of the web industry but it seems rather rather traditional in front of blockchain. The ICANN makes it a requirement for all the registration must comply with real personal or company identification which is very much against my personal preference. One can of course providing fake information but that would be placing the ownership of that domain at stake. The centralization of ICANN in the web industry is just dominating and the only way I can think of, is to utilise the decentralization power by blockchain.

This is a note as a sysadmin. After being a heavy user of scp when it comes to remote file transfering, it has come to the time to kiss it goodbye after the discovery of rsync.

rsync is so much better than scp in most aspect.

• Faster transfer speed - A lot faster especially in large file transferring.
• Interruption handling - Network interruption is not a nightmare to transfer that 1T file anymore.
• Better progress report - It shows the bit/s speed and progress bar in real-time.

All in all, scp is only suitable for a single file transfer. Anything larger and more than that, rsync is always the winner. Take a look at this question on StackOverflow for a better idea.
