Neither did I, RIP.
aghuang··on The Feeling of Power (Asimov, 1958)

aghuang··on What's in a PowerPoint File?
> A PowerPoint file is a ZIP package containing XML files and binary assets.

aghuang··on Mac external displays for designers and developers, part 2 (2022)
Which monitor is recommended for work + gaming these days? Been on the fence for a new one but couldn't find any that is within my price range.

The requirement I have is that it has to be 120Hz, probably OLED and it must have built in speakers.

Any recommendations?

aghuang··on How to talk to anyone and why you should
I haven't heard of Clubhouse being mentioned in a long time. Last time I checked, it didn't gain traction after 2021 and never heard of the app being mentioned since then.

Are there people still using the app? If so how are they making money?
