The Hellish History of HTML
The story so far:

Blockchain isn't new. The same trust, verification, and distributed principles existed 5,000 years ago in Mesopotamia. Fired tablets, seals, and scribes were the OG ledger tech.

I really liked Google+. I wanted it to thrive. When it was there, I used to spend equal time on Instagram & Google+. Its UI was nice and clean. I rarely encountered any hatred or negativity on it. Pressing the +1 button was satisfying.

💡 Geeksta Weekly Fact Drop 💡
The first-ever computer bug was literally a bug. 🪲💻
In 1947, engineers at Harvard found a moth stuck inside a relay of the Mark II computer, causing it to malfunction. They removed it and taped it into their logbook, labeling it as the “first actual case of a bug being found.”
Grace Hopper, one of the pioneers of computer science, helped popularize the term debugging and the rest is history!
Crazy to think that software bugs started with real insects. 🧐
