Why zsh?

I’ve been using bash as primary shell since I started using Linux. It’s ok. Don’t bother looking for a better solution until I ran into this blog post about My favourite zsh features. TLDR people?

Lazy way to version control git project

This is just a thought on maintaining source code on local system about the easiest and the most convenient way to avoid repetitive process. Code in Cloud As for projects working in several different computer,I think the best way to control version of the source code is to upload to cloud storage services like Google Drive or Dropbox and so on. It’s working quite well for small to mid-size projects. For large scale projects, storage size might be a problem. The purpose of keeping inside cloud storage syncs the whole directory across your work and home PC. It skips the step of pulling...

Being a programmer

Windows 98 is a magical word for me to explore at my spare time. I wrote about how I want to become a “computer guy” without no specific specialization.

Offical Facebook Messenger Last week, Facebook announces its messaging platform for web and you can log in here.I was not really impressive with the look and also have a security concern about ‘shoulder surfing’ since it is really easy to read full screen chatbox from a certain distinct. I believe people from Facebook should develop a native application for all major platforms (Windows,Mac, Linux). It will happen in sooner or later but still disappointing.
