> To connect you with relevant businesses and services, we never use information like your precise location or history of interactions with Maps. Instead we focus on contextual information such as search terms, a device’s approximate location, or the area of the map on screen.

I’m not sure I understand the distinction between “precise location” and “a device’s approximate location” here. If the latter is still location data from the device, how meaningful is the privacy difference?

I just found out about https://css-doodle.com after reading that. A few months back, I was doing similar things with the HTML Canvas API. I didn’t know I could do these kinds of fun little things with CSS as well. Love that.

I literally hate it every time I try to visit a website and face Cloudflare bot verification. And now, they’re letting bots create accounts and buy domains. Double-standard hypocrisy.

They do study English from primary school now: foreign-language activities in grades 3–4 and English as a subject in grades 5–6. But “they’re really good at English” is a big generalization. Years of English classes don’t necessarily translate into conversational fluency.

It's hard to believe, but I think this is the truth.
