I'm amazed that these days I can use web browser (Canva) to edit video/audio. I remember back in my uni days, the default video editing tool was (pirated) Adobe Premiere

I learned that Temporal.ZonedDateTime.since and Temporal.ZonedDateTime.until is yet another API that could be confusing to newbies It could throw RangeError if the two compared instance are in different time zone and the requested largest unit is days and larger

For me, I started learning Japanese ~3 years ago, and learned it using the usual method ("Tae Kim grammar guide" is my first guide I read), and when someone recommended this, it has been a big eye-opener on how to naturally construct a Japanese sentence. Highly recommend to try this out :)

Learning something completely new is always a humbling experience. That feeling of 'ugh I'm so bad at this' keep creeping up, but I know that eventually I'll get used to it and get better

TIL on Firefox Android, if I double tap, but hold the second tap, then I drag my finger down and up to zoom on that particular point. No idea if this is standard across all browsers, only just discovered it this weekend by accident.
