How email tracking works behind the scenes

Phone numbers leak more info than you might expect. They tell, based on country and area code, where the caller’s located—or at least where their phone number was registered. The caller’s name is likely to pop up on caller ID, and their carrier may be discoverable with a quick lookup. One could infer that the caller is awake and available at the time of the call. And if the callee answers, one can also infer that they are available—that they heard the call, saw the info, and decided to still tak

I launched 17 side projects. Result? I'm rich in expired domains

I think I'm officially a side project collector. I've had it all: A SaaS for freelancers... that I never had time to finish because I'm a freelancer. A revolutionary AI tool that I abandoned as soon as GPT-4 came out. And the famous "anti-social media social network" (spoiler: it was just me). I buy a domain name → I code for 3 all-nighters → I lose interest → I start again. My Google Domains look like a graveyard of unfinished dreams. But honestly, I've never learned so much, nor enjoyed

The Arctic Got So Warm in February, Svalbard’s Ground Was ‘Like Soft Ice Cream’

The Arctic island of Svalbard is so reliably frigid that humanity bet its future on the place. Since 2008, the Svalbard Global Seed Vault—set deep in frozen soil known as permafrost—has accepted nearly 1.4 million samples of more than 6,000 species of critical crops. But the island is warming six to seven times faster than the rest of the planet, making even winters freakishly hot, at least by Arctic standards. Indeed, in 2017, an access tunnel to the vault flooded as permafrost melted, though t
