Consider that you may never become a full stack developer, but you can easily be a full snack developer. Nor, really, web programmers should not call themselves developers.

I wonder if Charles Dickens intended to portrait the character Mark Tapley as a stoic?

Apparently, Gemini has been able to overcome the 90–9–1 Principle (1% Rule) - that within an internet community 90% of participants only consume content, 9% edit or modify content and 1% of participants add content.

I don't really understand why people say 'I've been working like a dog' when they mean to have been working hard... Actually dogs do not work, do they? Anyway, I've been working like a dog, and now I'll be sleeping like a log. :D

I'm using Lagrange 1.9.1 opened from a usb stick on Ubuntu. It was compiled on a Debian system. It is fully operational - except it crashes when I try to open an http url. This was the final test. I confess that since day one here I was suspicious that this browser might have some shenanigan. Well, I could not find any. Curiously enough I simultaneously tested another well known Gemini browser, which I intuitively thought would be trustable and, guess what, it was not. (I hate when intuition wrongs me. Don't you?) I owe @skyjake an apology.

Some peole are comlaining that their TLS certificates expired, and asking what to do. The simplest thing is to ggenerate a new certificate using another nick. Secnd, if you really value your present nick you can ask @martin for help. Third, you can actually "extend" your certificate following the tutorial on the link I'll leave bellow, but if you're not familiar with keypairs perhaps you will not be able to do it. Here it is and good luck: https://techblog.bozho.net/jks-extending-a-self-signed-certificate/

Disclaimer: I do not bet. However I could bet that none of you knew that 1.6 English ell is equal to 6 feet. Least you would know, I imagine, that 1.6 Scotish ell is equal to 4.96 feet. :)) If you're reading an old book where things like a firkin of butter, a punch of prunes, a fother of lead, or a stone of butcher's meat appear, here's a tool to convert all those units - to the metric system, preferably. :)) https://www.convertunits.com/

Ambition Has Roots in Roman Politics - When candidates for public office in ancient Rome wanted to be elected, they had to do just what modern candidates must do. They had to spend most of their time going around the city urging the citizens to vote for them. The Latin word for this effort was ambitio, which came from ambire, a verb meaning “to go around.” Since this activity was caused by a desire for honor or power, the word eventually came to mean “the desire for honor or power.” ...
