Not much. But the article can be shared with your non-technical friends and family members though. I guess that's why it has a lot of upvotes.

> Some examples by contradiction: tax returns, AWS Dashboard, many programming languages.

By programming languages, do you mean Rust?

> Apple has done its best to secure customer privacy... That earns ️<3 from me. Do I think Google would look out for me like that? Hahah, no, I do not think so.

Both Apple and Google are NSA's PRISM partners, Hahah. It's amazing how short some people's memories are.

Kinda off topic.. but does anybody here have any experience with the registrar dynadot?

I have a few domains with them since last year and it's been uneventful. But I was just wondering if anybody else had any good/bad stories about them?

Has anybody with Aphantasia read 'Moonwalking with Einstein' by Joshua Foer or 'The Memory Book' by Harry Lorayne? I recently started working on improving my memory using mnemonic techniques described in these books. And, let me tell you, they ALL rely on visualization. It's just so shocking to me that some people just won't be able to do this!

Has somebody with aphantasia tried any mnemonic techniques to remember things? Do you have problems recalling events long after they occur (like events from your childhood)? Do you ever daydream?

I'm saying Mithril is a simpler alternative to React, not React-like. Preact is react-like (same API as react); Mithril isn't.
