There‘s nothing on mobile.

Same with Svelte. We use SolidJS now.

I tell them that they will pay more for a plane ticket than others if they don't hide their Apple products or their profession. Suddenly they understand that there IS something to hide...

You need to specialize, Leo. Otherwise you'll never be good at something.

I was looking forward to getting told which web sites I visited recently. What a bummer...

MarvinYork | 13 years ago | on: I Have 50 Dollars

I think you underestimate two things: - hipster web people who will sign up for anything without thinking - $50 which are a small lottery win for a 3rd world family

I am sponsoring an eight year old boy from Kamrabad Uchcha Vidyalaya (East India) for 20 euros monthly. That includes school material (for the whole class), health insurance (for his whole family) and nutrition support (again for the whole family). And no, I've never seen him personally.

But my sister did when she was a volunteering doctor for one year in his area. I really don't want to argue with you, but I believe that it is less naïve to at least try to help with $50 than not to try it at all.

Now let's back those awesome 3d glasses on kickstarter...!

In my opinion it is brilliant, because the site holds a mirror up to yourself. When you read the message, you were actually willing to spend $50 for a some virtual sh*t (compared to wiping out slavery).

That's the best position to get someone in to give a few bucks for something good. Even if it's not the full amount of $50.

MarvinYork | 14 years ago | on: How to turn off Carrier IQ on your iPhone

I don't know why exactly I followed these instructions, because I was sure that I had never turned "diagnostics" it on. When I saw the settings I was kind of shocked, because my iPhone 4S (5.0.1) really was running in diagnostics mode all the time.

Probably you should check your settings, too!
