It's also interesting to look at the trend. The daily number of deaths to the daily number of cases has dropped rapidly all around the world. Not sure why but it's a very good sign. If I saw this trend only in a handful of countri

I wish we lived in a world where this was true. This is the biggest problem with tech today, making "eye catchy" software which is horrible to use and getting anything done (and I mean simple things as making a payment if it'

What do you guys do when admining a server to make it so time-consuming/bothersome? If you just host static content you don't even need to care about security updates. Just deploy a new instance, "apt install nginx", don
